What about freezing it?

You can freeze it. I assume youre using a F400S because that's a SK telecom thing. I froze it on mine and it was fine.

I had the same issue with the kindle app. Using something like root explorer go into system/vendor/app and anything tibu can't delete is probably in there.

I already got rid of that kind of stuff but I cannot find these particular files. I'm rooted running Virtuous.

I believe they are in /system/apps
Try using root explorer or a similar app and deleting them or download titanium backup and just freeze them usually I can find any apparently to freeze or uninstall with that

I tried looking there with no luck. I ended up just freezing them. :-\

Looks like you installed some apps to sdcard?

You moved apps to your sd card probably? That's when you get those symbols

just wipe cache partition and reboot they should be gone or reinstall if they are missing. That happens to me alot.
Just reboot. Since you removed those bloatwares, after you exit the app you used to remove them with, your app drawer looks like that. Just reboot.
I rebooted in to cwr,flashes super cache wipe and rebooted back into ics,but the problem is still there
Edit: I kinda fixed the problem. I disabled them trough settings--application

How did you remove the bloat? Thru titanium? Thru the ROM?

That could be your problem. You have to uninstall, not just delete the apk's. Try uninstalling thru titanium, ROM toolbox, or the ROM. See if that makes a diffrence

[Q] Removing Lookout

Got a brand new S4 and would like to remove Lookout. I've deactivated the app from Device Administrators and then tried to uninstall it but the only option I have is to uninstall updates. Has anyone been able to remove this succesfully?
Root it and then use titanium backup and use that to get rid of it.

If not rooted,you can also go to settings>more>app manager>lookout>then disable the app.
loockout was the first app i deleted after acquiring root access....that app is so annoying.
Unable to Root S4, Lookout is blocking the Rooting software

I'm unable to root my gS4 because the Lookout app is blocking the rooting software. Anyone has any idea how to bypass this problem. Thanks

Flash a recovery and then flash root, you're guaranteed root then, lookout or not.

[Q] Installed apps not showing in Titanium backup

So I have root and used TB to freeze a few apps. Wanted to get a backup and it is not showing any of my apps installed, only system apps. Tried installing busy box and didnt change anything. Any ideas?
Did you check the filter? Maybe you have it set to only show system apps. In in the right corner under backup/restore.

TWRP Manager

I installed TWRP Manager from the Play Store yesterday on my Rooted T-Mobile S4 running Insane KitKat V8. I tried to do a clasic backup, the backup was finished but it was saved to main memory, and it must of been huge as I lost almost 5GB on main memory. I am going crazy trying to find where it was saved so I can delete it. There was nothing in /0/TWRP/ except a small file. Appreciate the help.

Do you remember the name of the backup? If so, you can open es file manager and you can use the search function. Search under device.

OK. Open es file explorer and click where it says sdcard and choose device. Then click on search, type 2014 and all of the 2014 files will show up. When you find your backup just copy and paste to your twrp folder under sdcard.

Check TWRP mngr settings and confirm that main memory is internal or external.
