I just froze it with Titanium Backup and installed Opera Mobile. Everything's working fine.

to complete remove it you need costum rom.

u can use an app like link2sd then open the app and select browser then options in that select uninstall

Vry simple. .just install root explorer. Then
1. open it and go to /system/app
2. Click on mount R/W
3. Then touch n hold browser.apk and delete it

why not just uninstall it using titanium backup? Then just install the browser of your choice!

Thanks eveyone for your suggestions. Managed to remove it.

[Q] How to unflash gapps?

How do I unflash gapps? Someone recommended I installed it so I did and now I have 2 of some apps and gmail force closes. Everything worked fine before I flashed it so now I'm wondering, how do I unflash it?
Remove the apk files of gapps from /system/app
I suggest clearing data of them before deleting apks.
Root uninstaller
Are you using the latest version (for 2.3.5/2.3.6/2.3.7) ?

I opened the gapps.rar and checked the apps in it then removed them one by one using root explorer. Had some problems after removing a few so I flashed them back and now everything works.

Clear cache of camera or reflash ROM

hope it's working..thanks
Is it generic rom? Have you tried doing a factory reset? Another option is download camera ics+ then use titanium backup to convert to system app by long clicking on the app and scroll down to convert also to save memory you can actually move apps that cannot be moved to SD by selecting move 2 SD on titanium backup by long pressing on the app u wish to move

[Q] Why unistalling system apps not working with cm11 on gs3 i9300?

Ok, updated my phone to the first nightly build on cm11, everything is working fine except for the fact that I cant modify system apps or files although im rooted.
Eg. I cant replace bootanimation.zip
Eg.2 I cant uninstall a system app
Is this a problem with the rom or what?!
Reminder: I AM ROOTED!!

What are you using to remove apps ???and how .
Are you just trying to remove the apk in a root explorer? If so does /system have the correct permissions?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk
I tried to use the following apps from the play store:
1.Root app delete
2.Clean master
Both failed to work as root app delete says that I am not rooted, and clean master fails to uninstall a system app although I granted it root permission.

And also I forgot to mention that root browser does not let me delete system apps despite the fact that I granted it root permission. I tried solving this issue by reinstalling busy box but that did not work either.

Rom toolbox also fails to remove system apps - however simply deleting them with root explorer works fine (after which, I use SD maid to clear up any corpses).

I told you, I tried using a root file manager app but it just fails.
