Uninstalling Bloatware on my HTC One (M8) AT&T

[Da_Persian]

So I rooted my phone and download this app called "Uninstall" to get of the AT&T bloatware apps, which the app does... until the phone reboots and the apps appear again. I have also tried Titanium Backup to do this with the same issue. Help would be much obliged.

The app sounds like it's the problem. If you want bloatware removed, flash a custom rom with all that stuff already removed

some apps may be uninstallable with out the need to root. I know on my sprint phone, 98% of the apps were removable. no silly rooting needed.

Or simply disable the apps, I did that. Albeit I wish I could completely disable Blink Feed.

You can't on the m8 as BlinkFeed is the whole launcher.

Hence the trick would be to install a different launcher?

But Uninstalling is so much better

You can disable the news aggregator part of BlinkFeed, but the whole launcher is referred to as BlinkFeed as well.

Since you are rooted, I would install a custom rom. If you essentially want a debloated Stock ROM with Sense then I would recommend Scott's CleanROM. Currently it's only available for Verizon M8 but he said he is going to make it available for the AT&T M8 soon. I'm not sure when but very soon.

What I meant was punch out on the home screen. Drag the blinkfeed page to the remove icon. Bam! Now you are free of blinkfeed on the home screen.


Sense 5 was the only one to where you were stuck with it.
