Can you uninstall preloaded apps on android phones?

Question by a_reli2010: Can you uninstall preloaded apps on android phones?
I have a MyTouch 3G Slide and there’s stuff on it I’ve never used or will use,
Like the barcode app, stocks, twitter, etc.
Any way I can remove unwanted apps?

Best answer:

Answer by The Phone geek
No and yes

No….you cant remove them with your phone the way it is

Yes…….you can remove the apps but you need to root your phone first. Which if messed up will brick your phone. To read up on the rooting thing check out the forums at xda-developers.com
