USE FULL STOPS. EVERY TIME YOU DON'T USE ONE, A KITTEN DIES.

Before I start, a word of caution. Deleting default apps can cause all sorts of unseen problems. Deleting Google Talk is known to completely disable Google Market download ability, forcing the user to reflash a stock rom. Not sure what the other apps will do.

First of all, download busy box from the internet. Launch it, and install the latest version of busy box.

Next, download titanium backup. Launch it, give it super user permission. Now you can go to the app list and choose which ones you want to remove. To be on the safe side, instead of deleting them on the go, freeze the ones that you don't want to use first. Leave them like that for a few days until you are certain that nothing else has been affected. Then you can remove them.

mmmm thanks that sound good but how i do it lol i am a new in this thanks for your help if there is a tutorial or video i do it thanks a lot

Is English your first language? We don't mind newbs but when people post with no concern of the English language and it requires effort to figure out what you're asking it makes people less likely to help. Use punctuation please.

I wouldn't recomend deleting ANY bloatware. I rooted and got rid of all the apps you want to get rid of. After installing a lag fix I ran into a BIG problem and couldnt operate my phone because the apps I deleted were written into the script for the phone. I had force-closes coming out of the A! I finally had to use ODIN and install stock firmware to fix this which took me 3 hours to do. Its a big pain in the arse. Just Root, LagFix and Overclock to around 1.6ghz and you won't even need to delete any bloatware.

Hope this helped. Also, PLEASE start using sentences. Your running your words all together and its VERY hard to know where you are starting and stopping! Lol...
