again the next time you re-boot the handset, but you can always stop/unload them again. It only should become an issue if you are re-booting your handset every day. Although, if you are having to re-boot your handset every day, you have bigger issues to worry about. there is even a better way to do it ....root ---&gt; remove bloatware from system/app . that pretty much do it for most non system dependent apps .. if u dont want to void ur warranty unroot again and find a way to reset ur flash counter! ... This is also true, but my point was in relation to the news post, so you cant root and remove bloatware from a phone that doesnt get the update in the first place... It actually makes most of the replied statements moot since you cant root/clean what doesnt exist... That being said,you can stop/unload bloatware for the most-part without rooting, however, Apps are goverened by "events" one of them is rebooting, but some, like Google Market (Play Sex Store, oh and its just an example), have events that start the app up again if you: start an app, stop an app, update an app, sideload an app, add an account, connect to wifi, make a phone call, txt, and lots more. You can see these events with a few tools, my fav on rooted phones is System Tuner Pro where you can DISABLE events! next best thing to freezing them, except you can still use
