[Q] Deleting apps with "edit" method in apps drawer = uninstall? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Okay so I have done a couple searches on this question but the terminology is too general and I always end up with a bunch of articles on how to delete bloat and the such so I was wondering if someone could just end my curiousity once and for all:
When you access your "applications" folder of all your apps from your homescreen, and you hit options, then edit, and then small minus symbols appear next to all your apps, you can click these and it asks "are you sure you want to delete the application?"
I know this is a way to hide bloatware but not delete it before rooting, but I was wondering if this is a full uninstall for other apps. If I use this method to rid my application folder of an app I don't want anymore, is it the same as going into my downloaded tabs in memory management and uninstalling it? This has been bothering me for a while, and while this is a pretty convenient way of deleting apps, I want to be sure I'm completely uninstalling them, not just hiding them away somewhere.
TIA XDA.

Go Launcher EX has that feature
when you click the edit and hit the X it will uninstall the App completely

I'm on touchwiz I need to verify this is also true for that. I'm running DaBomb v1.0 by Trich as my ROM and using TW4.0 with 5icon dock mod.

No problem. It should be available on custom roms too as I think no Dev will take that option out. There is also this option if you home button and select task manager and then the tab show in the pic.

Expose like interface Touchwiz dk28?

Did anyone else know it was possible. There isn't much documentation on Touchwiz 2.5 for our Epics. So I'm finding things new to me I suppose.
It also goes into Expose in the app drawer.

I dont understand
Can u clarify more
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I know that Launcher Pro has a nice Expose interface feature... but with touchwiz being so proprietary.. i highly doubt that youre going to be able to do much with it.
I meant this, I had a week ago pinched my fingers on the homescreen in Touchwiz and it expanded all of the homescreen without having to hit the edit button. But also within the app drawer it does the same thing and shows all the pages.
Homescreen:

Ahhhh I see, I wish we all knew what the actual features of the touchwiz we're on are. Because looking at old videos of Touchwiz 3 ours is nothing like it.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
That would be really useful.
Edit_ the pinch works with the zeam launcher for the home screen but not app drawer

The way Touchwiz 3 was apparently supposed to look and work. We have some of the features in that video haha. If we had that I would be happy with Touchwiz eternally.

It could be by just changing your grid sizes.

ICS style task switching
I use an app for this, which name is "Perfect task switcher".
It shows a preview of running apps (only stock based roms, not in CM7)
You can set it to show only running tasks.
I tried a lot of task manager, switcher apps. And I found that the best .I think you like it.

Interesting. They probably had some code merged from the Note and left this in there. Even still, we don't have the hardware to take advantage of the S Pen.
How did you get to those settings?

but If your still wondering I found it under USB in the shortcuts
Thanks - but how is that easier? lol
I just long press my desktop in Apex, select shortcuts, select USB, and wala! choose mass storage, done.
Pretty easy to me. and thanks again
Are you running apex pro? My free version doesn't have the "USB" choice.
maybe its my rom I guess.

Running great for me. What bugs? Why do you keep closing the app to launch touch wiz? By profile you mean
System settings or what? I see all of my apps just fine.
I am running Paranoid Android rom and when I try to open the app, it says my device is not supported. Does it only support TW based rom for our note 2?

I dont know about anyone else, but its pretty gross if you ask me. Im going back to the previous version because it doesnt need permissions for EVERYTHING.
