rm /system/app/com.android.magicsmoke.apk
rm /system/app/com.android.wallpaper.apk
rm /system/app/com.android.musicvis.apk
pm uninstall com.android.wallpaper.livepicker
pm uninstall com.android.magicsmoke
pm uninstall com.android.wallpaper
pm uninstall com.android.musicvis
sync
reboot

There is an app in the market called terminal emulator, its a free one. You type those comands into the app(exactly as they are typed up and hit the enter key to go to the next line).

You could also purchase root explorer and just delete them manually. The free way is harder. With root explorer you just long press the app apk (example: find com.android.magicsmoke.apk, long press and delete).
You could delete all 4 apps in seconds.

Ok. I tried it out...

In terminal, it tells me permission denied when I try.
Purchased root explorer, it says it hasnt obtained root access because of SU. But the SU Permissions prompt doesn't come up when I open the app. Only the notice about root access.

Thank you for the help, by the way.

The first time I use root explorer I get the same message, you need to re open it and it should work. Once open go to system then applications and then follow DA6 instructions on how to delete.

And nothing will come up when you try to open SU.

What rom are you running that you don't have su permission

I'm pretty sure it's Sholes 2.0.5. And I do have SU Permissions. Not sure why it doesn't work now...

The first time I use root explorer I get the same message, you need to re open it and it should work. Once open go to system then applications and then follow DA6 instructions on how to delete.

Reopening it doesn't work. It keep giving me the same message.

Did you try root explorer a second time?

Yes. This is what I'm always getting.

Code:
[SIZE="4"]Restart App[/SIZE]
Root Explorer has not yet managed to obtain root access. Because of issues 
with Superuser, this often happens the first time the app is run but is usually
fine from then on.

Click OK and restart the app to try again. Make sure you respond correctly to
the Superuser prompt.

That has never happened more then once for me. Not sure what your problem could be, maybe try a different rom that's the only thing I can think of.
