QUOTE(nokia6280 @ Aug 14 2013, 09:28 AM) Check page 1 for list of bloatware that is safe to disable, go to applications manager -> All to disable it, you don't need to root to disable bloatware, for your information that not the bloatware causing your phone slow, is actually Kernal apps is heavy and you can't disable it. too bad, good h/w but the software itself caused the phone sometime even looks slower than my xperia s |
