If you get to root access you can delete non-useful apps. I will not be responsable for any apps you uninstall that cause problems to your phone running. Know what you are deleting before you do.
There are two ways to do this.
Through the terminal emulator on your phone or through cmd prompt on windows.
Through your phone:
1. Open Terminal Emulator
2. Next to the $ type su should look like $ su
3. You will get the # symbol, if you don't your not rooted
4. You need to remove the read only protection, to do so type:
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4/system
(Please back up your img files before this as shown in the root thread)
5. Type in: cd /system/app
6. now you can type in: ls
(This will list every app in the directory)
7. Now you can remove app's, make sure while you do the next command is must be spelled accurately or will not work.
8. I will use the myspace one as an example, to remove it type:
rm MySpace.apk
9. Once that is done it will still be on your app board but a reboot will remove the icon
10. You can remove other apps if you like, again I will not be responsable if
you screw up your phone.
11. Type: reboot
12. Your phone will restart and you will no longer have those app's
installed.
To do this on the PC:
1.) Connect your phone to the computer in debug mode.
2.) Go to command prompt and change to your android directory, ie
mine is
cd C:\android\sdk\tools
3.)Once you get your directory, ie mine would show C:\android\sdk\tools\>
You are going to type:
adb shell
4. It will take a minute and you will get the $ symbol
5. Type: su (A prompt will display on the phone and say do you will to
allow this superuser privledges. Click allow. After this a # symbol
should appear.
6. At this point if you have the # symbol you can go back to the top
where I did the phone instructions and continue on with that step 4.
Entering in the command to disable read only protection.
Enjoy and if questions ask.
BTW I do not know what the socialite.apk is on the phone.
I will post when I figure it out.
