I have apps on my phone from the manufacturer that i will never use. Can i delete them?
Here is a list of apps that i want to delete that i will never use:
Voice Notes
AIM
MySpace
BlackBerry HELP
Google Talk
MemoPad
ICQ??????
Yahoo Messenger
Search
If you go to Options - Advanced Options - Applications... None of those Apps listed in bold are here.. So where/how can i delete those?
Thanks
First of all, have you tried using the desktop man? If you plug your BB in to your machine and open the desktop man, Click on App loader>add/remove apps. Hopefully it will list EVERYTHING loaded on your BB and you can uncheck the apps you want to remove and click finish. I am running DM 5.0. I know it says that I am newbie, but I have been a berry addict for 6 years. Hope this tidbit helps.
AIM, GTalk, ICQ and YM not showing in the app list? that's odd
Ok yes of course i have hooked my phone up using DM.. When i go to App loader>add/remove apps the ONLY apps to pop up are:
Opera Mini
BlackBerry App World
Slacker Radio
Now i am using DM v4.5, i have no idea if it makes a difference then what you are using
So have any ideas now? :D
This is what i have listed in my Applications: I do not see any that i listed in my previous post there
Blackberry 4.5.0 Core App
Blackberry 4.5.0 System
Blackberry Attachment S....
Blackberry Maps
Blackberry Messenger
BrickBreaker
Browser
Documents To Go
Email Setup Application
MemoPad
Opera Mini
Password Keeper
Phone
Slacker Radio
Were they ever installed or are they just the icons? My guess is icons. Just hide them is about all you can do.

I did hide the icons, but i want them gone. If it is taking up memory and i am not using them then why have them?
This is a test post from my bb. So why are my apps not dshowing up then?

The icons take up very little memory you can delete them but when service books get sent they show up again. So it is just easier to hide. Good luck.

i deleted them in my service book, but when i do quick pull or a battery pull theyre back. i finally gave up
That is what I was trying to say. Just hide them they really don't take that much space.

ahhh ok i found them in Service Books...
So if you pull the battery or re=send service books they reload then? :(
Yes that is correct.

welp that sux.. I have then hidden then
have you downloaded your BB OS install files? You might be able to just reinstall the OS and remove apps you don't want.
Why don't you try Maxmem for on device deletion of certain apps; Crackmem or shrink-a-OS for deleting on computer then reinstalling OS. There are ways to do this.

if you dont see them in the app list.. ie.. google talk, myspace etc, those are service books, if you delete the service book, they will come right back next time they are pushed.. just hide them, they dont take up memory unless you install them. Plain and simple. As far as voice dial.. crackmem can remove that, as well as the carrier theme if you dont want it either.
Yes Rachael all the apps that i listed are under the Service Books :(
You cant remove them permantley, once they are pushed again they will reappear, they are not taking up memory, as i said, unless installed.., Hide them.
I created a folder named sprint stuff should be sprint cr-p just to clean up the app page. Out of site out of mind...
They are all hidden..
I did a similar thing...made a folder called "unused" and put all the extra junk in it. Then I hid that folder.
Hmm that is a good idea too.. Thanks
There should be a sticky or a bb 101 on what can be deleted or what can be deleted to save memory. I don't think there is any apps to delete unless you activate them to download to the phone..hmm maybe docs to go.
They're not the actual programs. The icons just act as links to download the Apps. So they're hardly taking up any space :]
