[AC Question]

Running 4.4.2 on a Huawei mediapad t1 7.0. I have root access.

I have to mention that my phone also runs android 4.4.2 and I have none of the following problems with this..... I can remove and replace any app I want from my screen.

On the Huawei mediapad however:

- Some apps I can remove by tapping and holding them, then drag them to the trashcan on the top of the screen. No problem.
- Other apps I can drag to the trashcan but they immediately reappear after I do this.
- doing this with "system apps" (and they use that term pretty liberal) just produces the message "this is a system app and can not be removed" on top of the screen. No "x" on the bottom of the screen, no other options, nothing. I don't even want to delete them from the device, I just want to clean my screen from unused clutter.

For instance, this device comes with a totally useless "MUSIC" app installed as a system app and it even is flagged as a "key module" in my root uninstaller. When I try to delete it, it simply fails to do so...

Basically this device forces me to have all system apps - half of them useless bloatware - on my screen somewhere.

unless I'm overseeing something of course. Can someone give some advice, this is driving me up the walls.

Hi, were you able to remove these? have you considered installing a launcher like Nova, which will allow you to customise the homescreen?

Are you sure you have root access?
