Root and Removing Sprint Apps.

Sorry to have to ask this but I haven't been able to find a clear answer on here or over at XDA.

My EVO is running the latest OTA update. It's stock.

I want to be able to uninstall the Sprint Apps and run tethering.
Do I need root, full root or a custom rom?
OR a combination of the 3.

I'm happy running the Sprint rom for now and would like to stick with it for a bit.


Thanks
Dave

as far as i know you cant just uninstall sprint apps

ok if you dont want the sprint apps you need custom rom
to run tether you need to be rooted


if your rooted you need rooted custom roms
cuz rooted phones and stock roms dont run well together
