I just thought i would share my experience. After i rooted i went through and changed all the apps i didnt want in my system/app folder to extension .bak. Then i noticed that there were still showing up in my application manager it just said they werent using any memory. I then went and removed all of them from that folder but i moved them to my sd card so i still had them. The next day i wanted to do a factory reset and start over so i moved all of them back into my system/app folder and thought that would be good enough. It wasnt.
One of the apps i removed was blurhome. I was running launcher pro and didnt need it. It ran fine as far as i could tell without it but when I reset the phone, it booted up and activated just fine but i had no home screen. I thought i was screwed but I ended up plugging the phone into my dock and it brought up my dock screen. From there I was able to access the market and i downloaded Launcher Pro again. I saw that the blurhome app was in the right spot but it still wasnt working. I had to install it before it worked. But the thing is, it installed it to the data/app folder. But none of my other system apps are in that folder.
My question, if anyone knows, is where are all the system apps and apps that come on the phone installed. Did i do everything right or what am i missing. I am currently trying to turn the phone completely back to stock which i dont know if we are aloud to talk about or whatever. Sorry this was so long. Has anyone else had issues like this.
Oh and one more thing. My phone doesnt vibrate for income texts or emails anymore. Does anyone know why? Im pretty sure it used too. It does for calls.
