Howto: remove Maemo 5's included crapware
 

If you're like me you have no use whatsoever for an app specifically for Amazon/AP/Foreca/Facebook. Maybe like me you're also an ex-Palm user, and are happy to now have OO.org on your phone and to never have to use Docs to Go again :D

So here are how to remove these things that are cluttering your apps list (run all commands as root):


Amazon installer:

apt-get remove amazon-installer

AP installer:

apt-get remove ap-installer

Facebook installer:

apt-get remove facebook-installer

Foreca installer:

apt-get remove foreca-installer

Docs to Go installer:

apt-get remove dtg-installer

you can deinstall them with the appmanager too

It's not "crapware", you just don't use it.

Add to that the getting started thing, they were the first things I removed!

And if you are not comfortable with CLI and root you may aswell uninstall these apps using Application Manager UI.

you can delete theme by one line. apt-get remove <name> <name>

Technically that could be said for all bloatware and crapware that comes on all computers.

Obviously someone uses it.. or it wouldn't be on there.. and I still hate it :p

docs to go is almost essential, for me at least, the rest, yes, is crap :)

Breaking news: Apps can be installed or uninstalled using the App Manager!

That's why there is uninstallers :rolleyes:
Though I never use it either. On a new computer I prefer to do my own, clean installation.
