Removing pre-installed apps? - HTC Inspire 4G

Hello, probably a dumb question, bulbs there a way to remove/uninstall the apps that came pre-installed on the phone? Blockbuster and the like? I won't use blockbuster and its using up space. I have everything stock. Not rooted, its a brand-new inspire and I would prefer to keep it stock. Hope to remove the useless junk!

Have to root of think. Then you can uninstall or freeze them. Might be able to freeze them unrooted, not sure. Though they would still be taking up space if you do freeze them, just not using up resources..
*ins>rt sig here*

In order to delete you will have to root. BUT you can try this. Download launcher pro from the market. Using launcher pro you can hide the apps. :-D
I got your 10 char right here

Titanium backup will freeze or uninstall them

just out of curiosity, why so adamant about keeping it stock/non-rooted?

Just hide them with launcher pro. Thats what I did for the first 2 weeks when I got this phone while I read up on rooting. Then I rooted and never looked back. :-D

I just don't want to deal with doing it, if not needed. Wanted to see if it was possible to get riff of the unneeded apps, like blockbuster and twitter. And asphalt. Ugh! (also, my signature thingy says 'desire hd' instead of inspire 4b... Why?)

I see "Sent from my HTC inspire 4G using XDA App" for your signature, unless you're manually adding it in there to say inspire 4G.

Yeah I manually changed it lol
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

weird, i thought only custom roms had that issue. anyways, to answer your question, its because the inspire and desire hd are the same. desire hd is the euro model where inspire is the us model... atleast thats the way i understand it. I think there are a couple hardware differences, but nothing serious. thats why alot of the roms for the inspire make the phone think its a desire, because thats where they were ported over from.

Not sure if it's the same with the free app, but when you're not in a thread, hit menu, more, settings and scroll down to signature. Click panel and choose customize, then click on the customize panel. You can make it say whatever you want.

sounds like you are already s-off and/or running a stock desire hd rom

Nope, I'm running a completely stock out of the box at&t inspire 4g. I don't know exactly what s-off is.

As for as i know there are some apps that let you clear youre market cache, but you need to have root acces
I'm tryin to clear free apps that I uninstalled and is on my downloads list months later still. Clearing the market cache isn't cutting it. Hmmm......

Have you tried long holding on the app in download view? It should present some options of which one is uninstall. Never mind that is only for installed apps, sorry.

extended homescreen

i currently have 7 homescreens and i'm not using all of it, i want to delete a couple.
how do i go about deleting an extended home screen?
TIA
I dont think you can with just stock. I use Go Launcher and can add/Delete the screens. Else I think you are stuck with them.
I believe Tweaked is correct. I don't think you can delete screens on Sense based roms.
well in my case I d like to have more than 7 screens but, I guess everyone s different :}
How is it impossible to delete the screens amount?

What rom are you using? Are you using a launcher?
I know on golauncher, when i 'pinch' on any home screen a window opens with all my home screens and the options to add or remove as i please.
just to clear things up. you CANNOT change how many screens you have with the stock Sense launcher. However, you CAN with many of the other launchers that are out on the market. Examples include , golauncher, ADW launcher, ect.. just go to the market and type "Launcher" im sure you will find one there

New Market

Can someone please tell me if i am the only one with a sensation that hasnt gotten the new market pushed to them? I didnt want to install the apk floating around.

But I like the old one better anyway.
I am still using old one.

I've been using the new one for a while by upgrading myself. Just download it. I think its faster and I love the new Metro type UI.

Power button to hang up?

On my last two phones there was an option in the accessibility settings to hang up using the power button. But I haven't seen that option in the stock or a custom ROM yet. Is there an app for that or am I missing something? Sorry if this is in the wrong spot.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA Premium App
I'd like to know if there is a solution for this as well. I've almost been caught in some strange situations where I pressed the power button to hang up but obviously on the Sensation the call keeps going.
What phone does that?
Cm7 has this as default and can not be changed from my understanding. I personally do not like this option because it forces the screen to stay on and eat battery. For this reason I switched back to sense adhd.

Didn't remember that on my n1
Its a stock android option. Would really like it to be ported somehow to sense also. I'm not of cm so I won't be flashing it just for that feature but if you all like vanilla android then maybe that's your answer.

Haven't seen any in any sense roms. Just the aosp/cm7 roms. It would be awesome if someone could add it as a tweak or addon.
