How to Clearly uninstall .PKG applications

Saturday, May 1, 2010 , Posted by Rohit Sharma at 10:41 PM

If you got tired of having an application that didn't work and if you want to unistall them clearly then follow it.

**Disclaimer** i have tested this method and it worked completely without effecting my phone except for how i wanted it to (uninstall .pkg programs) but follow this procedure at your own risk, i am in no way responsible if you mess up your phone.


Suggested Programs:

Notepad++ (freeware) gr8 for coding, makes your life a whole lot easier, if you use notepad you will be searching for the right spot for a while, so not needed but strongly suggested, get it here http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm


thats it for suggested programs


Total time: under 1 minute to 10 minutes depending on how many files you want to delete.

Steps.

1. Plug in your e6 in mass storage mode.
2. if you do not have "view hidden folders" enabled on windows then follow next step, if you do have view hidden folders enabled then skip step 3.
3. open up my computer, click on tools>folder options>view> click show hidden files and folders.
4. open up your phone root folder
5. go to system>QTDownLoad

6. delete the folder of the application you want to delete
7. go to the phone root folder
8. go to system>java

9. Open "CardRegistry" with notepad++ (or notepad)
10. scroll down in the notepad file until you find the name of the program that you want to delete, it will look something like the picture. in the picture i have zmplayer selected, for the purpose of this demonstration.

11. Select the whole block starting from the "[]" and ending with the "visible="
12. Delete the sleeted block
13. Rinse and repeat
14. once you have deleted everything you want to delete, save the file in its original location overwriting the original file.
15. pat yourself on the back because you are done!
16. you do not need to restart your phone, it will have already been deleted.
