I still want to keep the sense feature and some of tmobiles app that I always use, I just want to remove some stock apps that's taking the memory so much and I don't use them plus they said overclocking will decrease lagging of the phone

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.

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.

how to delete uneeded junk?

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?

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

Do you mean Bloat Freezer?

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.

I'm asking because I wanted to use the software that Navigon has made for downloading and backing up your Navigon software with. And the fact that it doesn't work disturbs me like hell.
And I wanted to know if someone has managed to use it and to see if it's on my end where the trouble is or if I had missed something.

Newsflash from the support: it's not possible to use flash to backup on Android.
