Re: Programs I can remove

Hey Ricky,
It's pretty hard to mess your phone up. Unless you are flashing a new ROM to your phone, a hard reset will clear up anything you would do that might mess it up. With that said, you are safe uninstalling any of the Sprint software (Getgood, Sprint Music, Software store, etc). You are probably also fine removing Windows Live. As far as removing Windows media, I am not sure...don't know how you would uninstall that without flashing a new ROM, and my guess would be to leave it and not take it off.

You can probably remove ringers also, but WM may look for them, especially if any of them are set as defaults.

You definetely don't want to go in and just delete folders that contain these programs. One way to remove bloat is to do a hard reset, then when it says "Customizing in 3 seconds", do a soft reset before it begins the customization. Then all the sprint stuff will not install.

Hope this is a bit of help. Enjoy your new phone! It's a great one!!!

-David
