Removing Bloatware with Root

**jbfromnjn** · 07-22-2010, 12:03 PM

So... I've rooted my phone... now to remove the bloat...

City Id and Blockbuster are easy to get rid of, but how do I remove Skype and the Amazon MP3 service? Which ALKs are they hidden in and what else will I remove?

Lol I cant wait to get rid of the Blockbuster App. The crap doesnt even work on my phone,

Titanium backup can't get rid of amazon MP3 or skype - any other ideas?

Down load root explorer that gives you the option to look through all the partitions on your phone and delete things
don't delete BACKUPASSISTANTCLIENT will result in a near brick after a factory reset

Ok, so the answer is still: Dont remove back up assistant.

The easiest way is probably to use Titanium Backup. I had the premium version from when I had my OG Droid and it was nice to use it to get rid of the bloatware again.
