    I have been sideloading a lot of Android ported apps to test them out, but i now have an issue. Two apps that I sideloaded which didn't work will not go away, I can delete them, but as soon as I reboot the phone, there they are back like i never deleted them. I have probably deleted these two apps about 10 times each.

    anyone else have this problem? or does anyone have a solution?

    I have this issue as well. I side loaded XBMC Frodo and it didn't work so I deleted it. Rebooted my phone and XBMC and the sim services icon (that I hid away in a folder) showed up on the first page.

    Happens every time I reboot so far.

    Might just be a bug in 10.0.9.2372

    i use Terminal via Mac... is there a way to uninstall using this method or is that only a DDPB feature?

    I haven't tried un installing with ddpb yet. I've just ignored it, there are other more important bugs (eg a nameless, delete proof blue tooth pair item that breaks BT svcs when accidentally pressed)

    However, of all things, it's only XBMC. All of the other 20 apps I installed, tested, and deleted worked just fine. Odd.

    I have a version of YouTube that won't go away. It works but everything is too small for the Z10 screen.

    Anyone have a solution for this?

    Tried using DDPB to uninstall. I am pretty sure its the exact same version, I installed it again and not other icons showed up.

    Some of those apps seem to have permissions issues. Only way I've found to delete them is to security wipe.

    Try using vnBB10. Under the Manage tab, it can read all the side loads on your device, and you can delete them from there. More user friendly than DDPB.
