Root Can't Delete Stock Apps

I used android terminal emulator and did the su, mount -o remount, ls /system/app, and wrote down all the apps I wanted to delete then went through and attempted to delete them all. Some of them said the app could not be found and others said nothing, which means it was deleted. After I was all done I noticed all the apps were still there so I got better terminal emulator pro and used that, none of the apps I wanted to delete showed up in the list and when I typed them in anyway it said it could not find the apps. A little later I tried it again and still the apps didn't show so I tried to delete one that did and that worked perfectly fine. Is there a way to delete them even though they're not showing up?


Also, does anyone know the .apk for:
3G Mobile Hotspot
AllShare
Daily Briefing
IM
MySpace
My Verizon Mobile
Talk
ThinkFree Office
UberSocial
Voice Recorder
Voice Search
and Voicemail

Or if any of those can't be deleted, because I deleted Nuance Voice Commands before and my phone kept trying to open it and saying it couldn't, I had to use ODIN to flash my ROM again.


Also, I don't want to freeze the apps, I want to delete them.
