Ok, so I have been searching high and low for an exact "how to" guide for removing all the bloatware (IE what is safe to remove, how to remove and how to get it back should the need arise). I have rooted my fascinate, and while there are several (and I mean several) threads that say remove this or that or open this or that to do so, there is no clear cut sticky saying how to. Dirrk made rooting beyond easy with his compilation, but nothing about removing bloatware is as clearcut. Can someone help this noob out?
 
Read the "apps that are safe to remove once rooted" sticky thread.
Everything is in there
not completely, I have titanium backup, but I can't remove some of these files. As far as the abd stuff, where do I input those strings? I tried using command prompt but got the specified path not found. That's what I mean by a guide for dummies, dirrks how to root was idiot proof. Obviously the removal thread, not so much.
 
Forget ADB. It is not a "for dummies" tool. Instead, purchase, download, and install Root Explorer from the Market. It's a file manager that allows you to rename, move, or delete files. All the files you're referring to are in the /system/app folder, and as mentioned above, the files that are safe to remove/move/delete are listed in the sticky. In fact, I just updated it.
