I don't know if you really deleted the apps. I know with CyanogenMod, you're allowed to link the apps from the original stock Android. So maybe that's what it's doing. Or maybe you haven't downloaded a custom ROM yet, so when you press Home and go to the original app drawer, those apps are still there. Once you change your ROM, it should give you the option to either link your Official Google apps (since it's illegal to put them with the ROM) over to your ROM or delete preinstalled apps. But I don't think rooting the G2 alone is enough to get rid of the preinstalled apps.
So what I'm saying is, if all you did was root the phone and that's it, I don't think you can delete the preinstalls just yet. You have to download a custom ROM first before you get that option.
