Titanium backup will do the job.
Or root explorer
If you just want to remove some bloatware, then look into doing a temp root and using Titanium to freeze the bloatware.

If you are looking into using a custom ROM as well, then youll want to use the revolutionary tool to gain S-OFF and then flash a ROM.
Many people have chosen to just temp root and freeze some bloat. That is the easiest path to take, with the least risk

I was stupidly trying to root my gb inspire with visionary.
Now google thinks is rooted and won't me use its movie service.
Is there any way I could fully root it and backup all my apps than factory it, or just unroot it?
Visionary doesn't think its rooted so I can't unroot it like that.

You need to root your phone to either freeze the apps via Titanium or by ViperBloat
Rooting your phone is really a good thing to do as it open your phone to changing, modifying and adding certain apps

Jhobert, I advise you to read and get very familiar with the process as it could brick your phone. Brick means that it won't work at all no matter what you do.
Just wanted to warn you and advise you to do a lot of reading.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
I would suggest downloading and flashing one of the NO-SENSE scripts in the Dev section or using ViperBloat to remove all the uneeded bloatware!

Thanks for the advice, been reading the steps on how to root and flash and its still confusing to me maybe its because I'm a noob and not a techy guy. Been having confusion on the terms they are using like the kernels, Rom, etc.

Can you UNINSTALL the bloatware apps or will that mess things up?
Also, where is ViperBloat? I am searching the dev forums but don't see it, unless it is a very old thread.

I don't use any data or speak any language but English. I have no need for stock apps such as HTC likes or HTC hub. Some of the widgets are just plain strange to me and I find them unnessessary. How do I delete things like that?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using xda premium
You have a few options freind. the easiest would be titanium backup but the most thorough would be Ron cleaner script to be flashed. I used it once but had to go back it actually got rid of too many things. Have to make my own script then ill flash it.
Try it out you will like it
You mean ROM cleaner?

Yes sorry auto correct sucks sometimes lol
If you're rooted & S-OFF you could try AntTek App manager, it let's you uninstall user and system apps, so just look through the list and remove any bloatware. Don't forget to backup first though.
Do a market search for bloat freezer. It gives you Titanium Backup Pro's freeze feature for free. It lets you remove it without actually removing it, just incase you need it down the road. It's either bloatware freezer or bloat freezer.
Boat freezer, I use it all the time

It's called Bloat/CIQ * Freezer - Free in the market. Great app.

I do like the idea behind it. I installed it and gave it a go only to find there's nothing I need to freeze! I used ROM cleaner when I installed ARHD.

If you're rooted, download Root Manager and browse to
/system/app
you can delete the .apk files from there (only things you're sure about!)
Make sure you do a nandroid backup first.
Hey guys,
I just received my Sensation 4G a few days ago, as a warranty replacement for my HTC G2. I have enjoyed the phone, but now I want a little better performance. I am currently rooted(perma) with S-OFF. (used Revolutionary). Stock 2.3.4 ROM
I have removed the TMO crap (mall, apps, telenav, teeter, Slacker, Qik, etc). I downloaded ROOT Browser from the market, went to SYSTEM/APP and selected Lookout, then Delete. Same process I did for every other app/bloatware I removed. But Lookout is still showing in my app drawer. Any ideas on what im missing?
Thanks everyone
Hmmm I have yet to see this added on my phone or a Rom idk

Turns out some of the app icons are still in my drawer. Nova is gone , but slacker is still there. Weird

Maybe your phone was reset vs ruu at HTC or wherever they refreb them

It came brand new. In box, sealed, headphones etc etc. Very very unlikely its a refurb.
Not sure why some bloat deletes and some doesn't

I suggest using RootExplorer or ES File Explorer (in root mode). Go to the top level directory (where you see /System, /Data, /SDCard, etc and touch the search button. Type lookout and see what the search comes up with. It should help you find it.
If 'Lookout' Had been granted Device Administrator then it cannot be uninstalled from the phone until this option is unchecked. Or a factory reset in recovery.
This could maybe be the issue ??
Lookout did not have administrator privilege.
I restored a backup of my original software. So everything is back to stock (rooted w/ S-Off).
So how can I remove bloat WITHOUT using a BAT or adb commands ?
I assume I can use RootExplorer , go to /System/App and select said bloatware and then select Uninstall.
Is there an official list of safe bloatware to remove? (Nova,teeter,tmo mall,qik, etc etc)
Many thanks !

I would suggest using a custom ROM like Android Revolution HD...they already removed the bloatware in their ROMs and stripped it down to just essentials. It is still using the Sense framework too, so you know it has good compatibility with your device...otherwise, copy down the list of files in your /system/app directory, post it here, and I will tell you what you can safely get rid of.
Just remember that, if you decide to flash the android 4/ICS version of Android Revolution, you MUST have SuperCID and flashed updated ICS firmware or it will NOT boot
You could try ROM cleaner it's in the themes and apps section.

Thanks guy's, I guess I will just use ROMcleaner. I'm not flashing any custom ROMs until the official TMO ics update comes out.
Thanks again
