Firstly, I'm new to this forum in that it's my first post.
I was sent here by a "friend" who had advised me that by rooting my Desire I could get rid of unwanted apps (in response to my complaining about the lack of internal memory) and told me which tutroials to use/follow.
Now the further I get into it the more I am concerned. The rabbit hole gets deeper.
I have rooted my phone using Unrevoked3, then backed up apps and data (Appmonster and MyBackup) and copied to PC. Then created a goldcard which is sitting in a file on my pc in case I need to use it. I've installed Titanium Backup (Free) app and backed up apps and data and copied to PC. Finaly I have gone into recovery and run a backup.
I've hit a point now where I've gone so deep I don't want to go any further for fear of damaging things. (I've modded consoles and such in the past without fear but I think my love for my Desire has frozen me for now).
I guess what I'm asking is can I use Titanium to remove unwanted preinstalled apps?
Have the steps I've taken done anything useful and should I be doing more to complete my steps.
When it comes to my Network provider rolling out 2.3, can I fdo it easily via them or do I need to look elsewhere?
Can you see the confusion I've brought on myself. I feel pretty damned foolish and so any help/reassurances would be greatly appreciated.
PS, I will not be following my friends' advice again.
Thanks in advance.
