That being said, HAVE FUN!!Guide: Removing BloatwareTitanium Backup (paid app)
One of the simplest ways of getting rid of bloat and one of my personal favorite apps is Titanium backup. Using Titanium backup you can freeze bloatware and if you want it can defrost it for future use. App cryogenics if you will.
Titanium Backup
Below is a flow chart demonstrating how to freeze and defrost apps.
How to Freeze appsUsing a File manager (free or paid)
If you choose not to use Titanium backup there are other options.Using any File manager from the market that gives you root management such as Root Explorer or File Manager you can rename apps rendering them disabled and unable to restart themselves. The example below is using Root explorer but the basic principles would apply to any root file manager application.
Root Explorer
Making it root managing accessible:
Navigating Root Explorer:
Renaming an app apk to disable it ( to re-enable the app rename it from .bak to .apk)
