Sprint tv Removal (bloatware)

elnene20 · #1 (**permalink**) 11-09-2010, 06:19 AM

Hello boy's and girl's.. I have full root on 2.2 stock.. I was able to remove amazon, nascar, stocks and a few other's that I didn't care for with Titanium Backup. Now I am trying to remove sprint tv using the same method and it's a no go. It looks like its doing something but when I go to check it's still there. I also tried Force remove app (by recovery exploit) using Titanium Backup, So all it does is reboot and locks or freezes. Some help would be greatly appreciated and it will be properly Thanked. Thank you in advance. [-o<

Yes I am quite sure Root Manager will work. I did see this suggested in other post as well as other methods of removing bloatware. But I am looking for an answer as to why I was able to remove other stuff with T.B and I can't remove this one particular app now? What am I missing or doing wrong now?

I think I remember that some of Sptint apps are connected to some other part of the phone. I know it can be installed with apk.

Yes but unfortunately I don't want to install this app. I would like to delete, remove, uninstall this app. Thanx

Since you are rooted, why not just flash a rom without the sprint crap?

And I don't get why I have to install another app to do the same as the one that I already have? Yes I know it's not working and that's what I am also trying to find out. And if the end result is that I need to install the app you suggested then so be it.. But for now I will keep looking for answers. Once again thank you all for looking and helping with suggestions.

Hey, Alright... Got it done... Well I went to menu-settings-applications-manage applications-all-sprint tv and uninstall updates. Then went back to T.B and uninstall from there. That did the trick. Once again I would like to thank all for your input.
