Sprint JunkWare - How Do We Remove ?

Hello TP Users!

I am a former Mogul user. I love my upgrade!

When I first got the Mogul, I did a 'hard reset' and after the reset a dialog box would appear stating "customizing". This would last for three seconds. Instead of allowing to 'customize' I would perform a 'soft reset' to prevent the Sprint Software, eg Sprint TV, from being installed. Are we able to do this on the TP? Would it be easier to create my own rom with the unneeded cabs such as navigation instead? Thanks in advance!

Whatever float your boat man. Either or will work. Thread closed

Thx hbenz.

When I attempted a soft reset prior to 'customizing' the TP is restarts the 'clear storage' process. The end result is the Sprint stuff is still there. Do you recommend a thread to review for building a custom rom?

lol... staying green

NO LUCK... i have just tried a soft reset just as the pop up for customizing appears and again as it started...

Both started the 'clear storage' process over again

woo hoo working... but looks like took too much!

here is what i did

1. cleared storage
2. soft reset after 'tap here' to continue screen appears and before 'customize' box appears.
3. another soft reset for the tp tries to run 'customize' cab again.
4. upon above reset sprint 'stuff' is gone...

over 300 megs now available... but no office.. no opera.. still finding out what else is missing...

guess trial by error! fun!
