Bloatware removal on TILT?

Greetings to the Xda-Developers and everyone at the forum.
I did a ROM upgrade yesterday on my HTC ATT TILT and can no longer remove the bloatware that automatically installs. Prior to this upgrade I was able to remove the bloatware by doing a hard reset, then the prompts would come up to calibrate the screen, learn to cut and paste, and how to password protect the phone....right after that as the phone settings were loading you could do a soft reset and the bloatware was gone. That process is not working for me anymore and I am wondering if anyone knows of a new way to remove the bloatware?
Any information you can provide will be greatly appreciated it!
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

The hard reset has to be done before you see the " customizations in 3 seconds " screen , you have to be quick, as soon as you do all that other stuff, and the screen says "tap to begin " tap and then do a hard reset. If you see the custom, in 3 screen it is too late.
denco7.... Thank you very much for your response.
Please excuse the ignorance but since I had only previously done a soft reset at that point (right before the "customizations in 3 seconds" prompt) which was done with the stylus.... I have not done a hard reset at that point and I am not sure how I can do a hard reset since the only way I have done it previously is by going to: Start > Settings > System > Clear Storage (Type 1234 and press yes).
Can you tell me how to do a hard reset in a different way?
Thank you again for all of your help...I really appreciate it!

Hard reset Acer e400

Hello guys, I have this terminal, but I can not give him a hard reset, if the menu select restore factory settings does not work very well, because some programs are installed, and the terminal is half mad.
How can you get into recovery mode and make a good wipe?
Thanks Tony
P.S. I apologize to the moderators but there was a section to highlight the problems for this terminal.

Warning: Make sure you have backed up app important data you have on the phone before you reset the phone, because everything will be deleted.
From the Home screen, drag upwards
Select Settings > SD card, USB Mass Storage & phone storage > Factory data reset > Reset phone
Enter your screen unlock pattern
Tap Erase everything
Hard Rest
How strange,
I've read that before
but...
when I drag my screen up and go to
Settings --> SD card, USB Mass Storage & phone storage
I do not see any Factory data reset at all...
My problem is, when i use the 'real' keyboard, my screen freezes.. I can't use it.
But when I put my keyboard back again, my screen just unfreezes..
I've done a new software-update (same version ,.. 2.1 update-1 ) but
that wouldn't help too..
Tnx
okay!
then go to
settings-> privacy -> factory data reset
leme know if u have found out the option or not.. i will try to help u as much i can..
Hard Reset
Hi,
Tnx, i've found the option
but without any result
Tnx for the help, however..
Thijs
if u really want to thank then please click the thank button.. it what keeps us going in this forum.. sorry if i am being rude to ask u to do dis..
good day
anyways what exactly are ur problems.. list them.. i will see if i can solve it..
Hard Reset
Done
Wel,..
- My screen freezes when I use my 'real' keyboard. It doesn't respond any more
- On the right top of the phone, there's a little LED, which won't work any more.
- My screen slides around (so hard to explane). Sometimes my screen 'splits' into two peaces and the right part goes to the left and the left to the right.. If you understand what I mean.. (shouldn't be surprised if you doesn't but I can't explain any better)
okay
now this is completely a kernel related problem!!! except for the LED part..
if u are in stock rom (i.e u have not rooted your phone and using it the way it came) then u rush it immediately to the vendor coz it has got lot of "bugs"!!!
if u have a rooted phone and using a custom rom then wipe all data, cache, dalvik cache, sd ext and then flash your rom from recovery OR better still use another rom..
(if u dont understand this part then u have a unrooted phone for sure!)
ANYWZ before taking it to the vendor check out the list of things that causes this problems
1. software related:- some software u install causes this problem
2. updating:- if u updated your software from sony erricson's website then in certain cases this problem occurs..
3. if your phone is suddenly showing these strange behavoiurs then best thing is not to do anything yourself and take it to your vendor!!
WELL IF U R WILLING TO TAKE THE RISK THEN ROOT YOUR PHONE THEN INSTALL A CUSTOM ROM.. MIND YOU THAT IT WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY AND WILL NOT B ACCEPTED BY YOUR MANUFACTURER! (HOW TO DO THIS IS JUST A SEARCH IN THIS FORUM, BUT I STILL ADVISE U NOT TO DO THIS!!)
GOOD DAY
Hard Reset
Hi,
No I don't understand that at all (A)
but I know one thing, the problems are getting worser and worser..
Now my screen ain't respond for an hour... I've tried everything but
it won't respond
rush it to ur vendor!
Hard Reset
I'll do,..
Tnx for your help

take a good look, the green LED should flash atleast ONCE....i had the problem when i was new to rooting and installing ROMS.....do this...
1. make your deskie/lappy fully prepared to flash your phone by SEUS, only requiring you to connect the phone in flash mode (even keep your USB to phone cord inserted to the computer)
2. power off the phone by holding the home+power key (& keep holding them, now press the back button).
3.release the power key but KEEP HOLDING THE HOME KEY and the back key...(if you release the home key, the cell will restart).
4. now connect the phone to the computer and hopefully it will connect in flash mode
hope this helps in solving your problem
if i helped you, kindly press the "THANKS" button

[Q] How to unblock(Google) C1594?

One of my friends phone Sony Xperia C1594 is locked up as she does not remember the unlock pattern.
It was asking for mothers maiden name and she does not remember if she has put it or not. She has tried to login to google account and setting the recovery options but the recovery options are not available in google !
So it looks like option is to hard reset the phone. Searched everywhere could not find the right key combination to do it. Can anyone help me? This is not a rooted phone.
Hey buddy...
You cannot reset Sony like that..
But practically,there is a way to bypass it
Just repair your phone via pc companion
It will install a fresh copy of software in it and naturally,the lock would be gone..
Thank me if I helped you...
if its rooted, srs root program has an option to reset userlock
that's too technical. if you want to reset it, pull out the battery then turn it on. go to setting-memory. you'll see and option to reset the factory setting there. you can also try to change google's security question. you can't find recovery setting on google but you'll surely could change the security question there.

otherwise you will be stuck in the screen where it wont go further because your phone is in locked stage.

Since the phone is in locked stage(at pattern login page) you cant access the settings. Only the above method works.
