When I look under my application manager, I find 36 apps installed. I kinda figure a lot of this is bloatware.

I just don't have a clue as to what is necessary or not necessary. I couldn't find a thread on this though that doesn't mean there isn't one.

It sure would be helpful if I could find out what was necessary for my phone and what just got stuffed on their for advertisement.

This is my 1st ever cell phone and so far I've found the learning curve to be kinda steep.le

You don't say, but that looks like a Verizon supplied phone's app list. Ah, I see T-Mobile services so you are using TMobile.

I am going to just highlight the ones that I got rid of.......
The Google stuff you can turn off if you don't need them, those I will color blue.
