ah, now you're talking, did you make sure that they are not running in the background? Use taskkill or something similar to kill the task from running and try again. I'm sure we can get this resolved!

finally removed everything that i wanted to remove.all i did that seemed to work was type in the program as listed without 'rm' and hit enter.it then gave me the same message as stated in my previous post.so i typed the program this time adding the 'rw' and whoalla it worked.

LOL! I hate it when I keep trying something that is not working for me only to find out it was user error (me) all along. I am an IT Manager and trust me, I do it to myself often. I'm just glad that you got it figured it out.

i'm totally inlove with my moment now. i previously had the touch pro 2 and it got kinda boring without the apps. now that my moment is rooted, the battery life is amazing, theres no silly bloatware eating up my battery life or slowing down my processor. they just figured out how to get andriod working on the tp2 but i still would rather stick with the moment

Funny, that is exactly how I feel. My wife has my old TP2, running a nice custom 6.5 ROM, and I never even touch it. My Moment has a much nicer display, is blazing fast and never locks up like her TP2 does.

Let the "wannabes" with the TP2s have their Android port. With that 528 MHz processor, it's nothing more than a glorified Hero with a keyboard. And my Moment blows that out of the water

Noob question here. I'm about to pull the trigger and root my moment but I installed a bunch of apps even some paid ones. If I load Zefie's kernel, will I have to reinstall them all?

I never lost a thing when flashing a Zeife kernel, except for the information in Moxier Mail for my Exchange account. But that is easy enough to setup again and what you gain from the custom kernel's overall performance increase and being rooted far outweighs a few minutes in one app again.

Thanks rainfreak

The EULA for the Samsung update software had this in it "I understand that all 3rd party applications will be deleted and back up all of my data before proceeding with the upgrade." and I wanted to make sure.
