Couple questions about removing apps

[jonathan11303]

What are the following apps: HTMLViewer.apk , NewBayVault_4.2.96.VZMarket.apk ?

Is it safe to remove the following apps: Broswer.apk (planning on replacing it with Dolphin HD), SlackerRadio.apk, TuneWiki.apk ?

Lastly, how on earth do you remove the V CAST Media app?

I got rid of the NewBayVault one, no problems.

Slacker and TuneWiki are both ok to move off the phone (not sure about the browser, but I can't see it going badly); just did it and no bad things happened.

Lastly, how on earth do you remove the V CAST Media app?

Good question. It sure as hell isn't on my phone anymore, and I can still use it. Lol. Having the same issue with Blockbuster...

Having the same issue with Blockbuster...

Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Blockbuster > Uninstall Updates -----> reboot phone

I have noticed the same thing. I used Platinum Backup to archive the apps before deleting them, any the ones that did disappear from the app tray dont appear to be available to restore even though there is the back up shown.

Just to update, I've gotten both Blockbuster and VZW Media off my phone since my last post in here.

Blockbuster just took uninstalling updates (manually, from settings like stated above) and rebooting.

Media was odd. I moved the file over to my SD card (for the second time) right before I rebooted to get rid of Blockbuster. After the reboot, it was still on my phone. I moved it over once more (third time's a charm), and rebooted. It was gone after that. Just seemed odd that it took three tries; but both are gone now.
