Really
how to uninstall app with titanium backup
run the app...
backup/restore tab.. should be the middle tab (at the top)
tap on app
tap the un-install button (marked in red)
play around with apps you download. it's not very hard to explore every single button, every single menu. it won't explode. don't worry. at least not for an average user

Unknown sources is checked. When I get the black screen that has 2 grey buttons at the bottom, install and cancel, nothing happens when I press the install button. Oh, and I am installing vcast because I need it to update to 2.3.4.
Try a factory reset?

I suppose that could work. How would I backup and restore my data (I'm rooted)?
Titanium backup is a good choice. You have the option to backup all apps and system data, although I rarely back up system data because it could be what is causing the problem. Your contacts should be linked to your gmail acct but you can use any number of market apps to backup contacts, SMS messages, and call logs.

Have you tried to install more than one non-market app? The .apk itself may just be bad and not your phone. If a different app works you could try an alternate download of the VCast .apk. Id give that a shot before doing a factory reset.
Which VCast app are you trying to install? Theres a few VCast apps that shows up in the Market for me.

System data is preserved in a factory reset, right? And I would backup to the sd card, remove it, and do a factory reset later, correct?
i had this problem before...two suggestions: 1) if you have screen filter app, disable it before installing the app 2) juicedefender app may be interfering with non-market app downloads, try configuring the settings or disable/unistall the app
1) did the trick for me...i hope this helped!

I'm sorry for rebumping this older thread, but to the OP did you uninstall these apps? I usually freeze them. If you did and want quick resolve just back up your data with Titanium as others have stated and then SBF. SBFing will bring you back to 100% brand new out of the box status. You can find info here in the General section if you uncertain on how to SBF... don't be afraid it's easy

Same problem on my phone cannot press install button, fixed by turning off screen filter app. Thanks for the advice.

I simply cannot express my gratitude enough! For months I'd had the same problem and had tried everything or, so I thought. After some serious googling I came across your suggestion and it surprisingly worked; disabling Screen Filter did the trick. At last I can finally enjoy installing downloaded apps at my leisure! Thank you so much for the suggestion!!
I had 2 apps named Spare Parts, I removed the pro, but the just "spare parts" remains and can not figure out how to uninstall. I tried putting it on the main screen and long pressing and manage and no option, and even downloaded an uninstaller app and it does not find it.
What about /system/app/SpareParts.apk?

That did it, just long pressed and deleted
Titanium backup, pro and free versions, can remove any app from just about any ROM, for anyone else who may have this problem.
I use it to automatically remove the system apps i dont use, and have started backing updated system apps into the ROM zips themselves. An unbelievable program.
I have rooted my razr, no issues. One thing i thought that you could do with the rooted phone was uninstall pre-installed apps like, blockbuster, amazon. apps like that. is that not possible. If it is, can somone please give instructions on how to uninstall them. Thanks
You can use Titanium backup, and i suggest you freeze them instead of uninstalling.
Uninstalling stock apps hinder official updates.
How do i freeze them? and will that make it so they dont display in my app drawer?

Exactly! Just open Titanium Backup, go to the apps list and press on the app you want to freeze, in the following popup just press the deactivate-button.
Thanks for the help.
Don't uninstall factory bloat. You *WILL* regret doing it. Use the options to hide most of it, use TitaniumBackup to freeze the rest. You will still be able to take OTA update with no issue, just install Voodoo to keep root.
You don't even need to unfreeze or unroot when an OTA comes out.

All system apps are .apk files. "Freezing" one with titanium backup or doing it manually will change the .apk extension to .bak (back up). Nothing is removed, just deactive. The apps don't run and wont appear in your app tray. They're dormant until unfrozen.
This is beneficial because many apps have ties with system functions or other apps that you don't know about. So if you accidentally break a link just unfreeze the app to fix the problem. Plus you'll need to do so in order to receive an OTA. If you don't the update with either not appear, or fail to install.

Hello
I have an HTC One X which is rooted, and I am wondering is there a way (or an app) to uninstall other apps without going through the normal uninstaller?
It'd be much faster to select a load of apps and have the phone uninstall them automatically..
I'm asking here rather than the HTC One X area because this is relative to any Android phone.
Not sure how many apps you are trying to remove (or why for sure) but if your rooted you can use Titanium Backup for what you want to do. Just be careful that you don't unintentionally remove something you want/need.

I will try Titanium Backup.. Whenever I am on the Play store, I tend to install lots of apps and if I don't like them, they end up being left on the phone, so every so often I like to clean out apps I haven't used in a while.
Thanks!
EDIT: How can I select multiple apps, then uninstall them in one go?

TB has a bit of a learning curve and you can get into trouble quickly if you aren't careful but the bulk actions are under the check box on the top right corner of the app.
You also may want to consider a few alternatives in the play store like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kugoweb.uninstaller it looks more straight forward for what you are trying to do...just a thought

There are only the following options:
Un-install backed up user apps
Un-install non-backed up user apps
Un-insall all user apps
Un-install all user & system apps
Is there a way I can mark multiple apps to uninstall rather than uninstall by whether I have a backup or not?
I have tried a few alternative apps, but they all open up the uninstall thing and each one has to be done one by one, however I notice TB can uninstall apps without using that, so I'm asking is there a way to select mutiple apps manually with it.

Yes, any of the uninstall options you mentioned will allow you to check or uncheck the apps after you click RUN before it actually does anything. As I mentioned though you can get into trouble quite quickly if you uninstall something on accident. If you don't back up if make one before hand just in case.
If you start by clicking run on uninstall all user apps you get the check boxes to refine you're choices beforehand

Ah, I see now. I was worried that tapping that would just uninstall all user apps. I have already set regular backups, so I'm all ok there.
Just de-cluttered my phone with this,
Thanks for all your help!

Above is the best answer - recently because I froze some system apps rather than uninstall them, it saved me from a reinstall - I froze S Voice, and 2 "Google Search" apps. After a restart my keyboard went mental - could'nt select the correct characters, example - pressing backspace just put loads of Z's on the screen. A quick defrost and restart cured the problem.
Only uninstall after a Freeze test is my recommendation.
Freeze them, so you will have fewer problems, if you need them later! (Reinstalling)
