  • This is the reverse of what I want. Why not a tab that filters out the reinstalled /verizon bloatware? Why do they put so much crap on anyways?

  • Ok companies are now acknowledging bloatware as a negative and a need to filter, how bout these wireless carriers get the hint and keep the crap out of my phone. (or at least give me the option to remove it)

  • No one use Cast. And i hate bloatware, its all crap. Its my phone, get your crap off of it.

    • It may be your phone, and you certainly can do what you want with it. But HTC and Verizon made the phone, and it’s their right to put whatever they want on it. If you don’t like that, buy something else.

      • And I do. But when I buy it, its no longer their’s. They have the rights to the design, logo, and software. Though they should not tell me I HAVE to have their BS on my phone. Give me a way to remove it, a way you condone (because the industry hates us rooters) and I’ll be happy. Don’t put it on and I will be even happier.

        • i agree. thats wut the android market is. im sure twitter is a good app and useful for alot of people. but i never use it and have no reason to have a twitter app on my phone but it came with my phone. even tho theres alot of twitter apps in the market anyway.

        • Phone manufacturers are under no obligation to give you a way to remove bloatware, and why would they? They make money off of loading that stuff on there. It’s their right to lock the phone down however they please. Just because you own the phone doesn’t mean they need to give you access to do whatever you want on the system, that’s crazy.

          • If it were any other phone, any other OS, I would agree with you, But this is Android we’re talking about. It is meant to be an open system, and thus we have every right to be able to access said system to develop on or customize. By locking it down, the companies go against that and limit or eliminate said rights. It would be more productive, and less costly, to be more involved with the warranty process to weed out the fraudulent claims and to put more effort into tracking down and cutting off the 2-3% that abuse the network. But unfortunately, the companies don’t see it that way.

          • OK, just because you own your car does not mean you can put gas in it unless you use our gas. Just because you own a house does not mean youmhabe the right to go in your closit. I’m just saying, they can put it on, but let me remove it.

          • Bad examples. It’s more like: it’s your car, but you can’t change the trim unless you use our parts. It’s your house, but you can’t fix it up/add stuff unless you use our products.

            I agree that we should be able to remove it, but let’s not make it sound worse than it really is. 🙂

  • Is it going to have HTC hub or sense.com support? Probably not, VZW is being an ass hat.

    • chill kimir….im thinking that the update will come may 15th or june…..and probably will include a lot of this stuff, except you know the carocel….or however you actually spell that…also probably not the 3d widgets, but if sense.com and the ebooks and htc watch came…..then i would be happy…aka sense 2.1 with a little 3.0.

      P.S…ALSO A DUAL CORE SHOULD COME TO VZW THIS YEAR….HOPEING….

  • Who the heck uses the Blockbuster app or VZ nav app? both of those are a huge waste of money!

  • Here is my Bloatware sorting method

    1. root
    2. get TitBU
    3. delete bloat

  • Now you have an organized list of bloatware to remove after you root. Thanks Big Red!

  • Well, now the drawer just looks dumb. I dont even know why people go to their drawers anyway. If its important and you frequently use it then it should be on one of your homescreens. Anywho, God Bless Launcher Pro and its app hiding feature. =P

    • I go to my app drawer because i don’t want to crowd my homescreen with a bunch of widgets. Apps that I use daily are on there but those that I do use frequently but not daily I still need to get access to so I am not quite understanding the logic here…

      I’ve seen some people’s homescreen shots and I swear, it is WAY too cluttered with a bunch of widgets. Too busy looking

    • NoNo, take your bloat and get on your boat…you will need a boat to get rid if the amount if bloat version puts in its devices.

  • Love how they show the Hotspot app as one of the most used, yeah, you wish Verizon.

  • WTF? I sware, we tbolt users also better get this in our update…its looking like sense 2.1 will be the one with sense.com….and i will pist if the incred 2 has it and my tbolt doesn’t.

    • Remember to root slowly and remove thoroughly. One-clicking may not get out all the grime and could ruin your day.

  • Rather have no bloat, but at least we wont have to see it.

    This looks like the newer Sense 2.1 Gingerbread. The Thunderbolt should have this feature in the future too. 😉

  • The only true way to stop accepting bloatware is to refuse to buy phones that come with them. If Android stops selling because of this, they would stop putting crap on there.

    • Yah, I remember my first time..ahh, memories. So tell us, do you feel any different now? What’s next on your bucket list? 😀

      • Suicide? That would be my next option, if for some reason I thought it felt cool to type the word first in a comments section. And always ironic how most of the time there are people before them.

        “First” to me is always a moniker stepped in idiocy and lack of true healthy purposes.
