Awesome! Picked up a few new ideas on what to freeze with that TB list! That is a lot of CRAP. Thank goodness we can do something about it!

If you remove yahoo contacts you will not be able to add a new one or open individual individual contacts. Once you remove it the only way to get thoes functions back it to re-flash! Trust me, I made that mistake.

you can remove YahooContacts. you just have to remove BlurContactSync also. BlurContactSync, when installed, will call on YahooContacts to sync with. If YahooContact is not there, it flips out and doesnt let you view a contact.

I figured this out using dalvik debug monitor.

Once the BlurContactSync is removed, no more problems or errors.

I removed PicoTts.apk on accident. When I tried to reinstall it, the app won't reinstall going off these instructions: [How-To] Reinstall Bloatware with 'System Application' Properties - Android Forums The part that messes up, I go to install the app and it fails.

Any suggestions.

is blurcontactsync the titanium name? I don't see it.

also can we delete social messaging service 2.3.3? I don't use the social widgets.

also what about the suggestions 1.0 and it's 2 other programs? I always see suggestions poll blah blah blah running and have no idea what it does

skip step 5. it automatically installs

and i hope you're not using those apps in step 2. those are from old system.

to remove apps with root explorer, you should just rename the apk to bak

1. no, thats the file name. not sure what it's called in tb. i dont use it. sorry.
2. yes
3. the suggestion services you see are a blur service. they do something kinda cool actually. when you open a new email or text message, it automatically shows the people you have emailed or texted the most. so, if you disable them, you just wont see any contacts suggested
