If you've unlocked your bootloader and installed a custom recovery then flash the package available here. It gets rid of all of the AT&T bloat for you.
If you haven't unlocked your bootloader then this thread will help you out.
root your device and use rootexplorer to delete the files in system/app
yes. root and delete by stock rom
stable and long battery than any custom rom

Jeezz.....How many threads do we have on this...
Use the search bar dude!
An alternative is to flash a custom rom that already removes the bloatware

just in case ics never comes and in case it does come.
i just rooted using the thunderbolt tool i did not change or install any roms, now i want to unroot ,
do i need to back up anything that i might lose? if yes how or suggested methods.
only new app installed while rooted is titantium backup pro ,
thank you
You can use the tbolt tool to unroot but it does wipe data.
Honestly it's probably a better idea to flash the Liquid ICS ROM if you want ICS.
I'm not aware of any good root-free backups but I'm sure someone more knowledgeable than I will come along soon.
You could try mybackup pro but I don't think an app to backup app data without root exists. It just isn't possible because I think the app data is stored in the system. The only way to access the system is with root permissions.

No just stay rooted. Find a tutorial for disabling ota and you'll be fine. Sometimes unrooting and accepting an ota is the worst thing you could do. You never know if it will have a new hboot or if that hboot is even rootable or unlockable.

I remember with the last ota a lot of people were complaining about getting the ota while they were sleep and waking up to a messed up phone. I know for sure there were a lot of the sense roms with the otacerts file still there.

if they release it there will be a rooted version within a day or 2, maybe even before it gets pushed to your area
just stay rooted
I've unlocked the bootloader and rooted my HTC One but over time, it quits working. None of the apps can gain root and Koush's superuser states su needs to updated but can't gain root to do it.
A simple reboot fixes it. I'm still running the stock ROM with no need to switch.
Anyone else have this issue?

Hi there, I'm facing the same issue with my HTC One SV, it looses root and a reboot regains the root. Like you, I don't want to change my stock rom, but I'd like to have root access and remove the bloatware (again, which comes back after reboot). Any help is appreciated.

You might get a better response posting in the Galaxy Star Q&A Forum.
I have an GSM unlocked HTC One with bootloader unlocked. I didnt use lost the function of calc or sound recorder when unlocking that i have read. My question is will i still be able to receive OTA updates? and is there a very simple way to go back to stock or get the google play edition?
If you do anything to modify your phone you will not be able to accept OTA updates but you can always flash ruu's as long as you re lock the bootloader before you try to flash it. (which is also how you got to stock.) And currently the only way to run the play edition software is by flashing a custom Rom

So if I relock my bootloader and flash a stock ATT Ruu i will be able to accept the OTA updates? (if i understand you correctly)
I have only unlocked the sim and unlocked the bootloader via HTCDEV.com no rooting
Yes that's correct, SIM unlocking shouldn't affect anything, just the bootloader

You said you were on the stock Rom right? You probably can get away with just locking the bootloader. As for the ruu designgears has a thread in general

So I understand we cannot flash Roms without a custom recovery , but can we debloat the device? Like remove all the Verizon and Samsung apps that come preinstalled? Also what else can be done with just root access?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda app-developers app
Well of course you get the benefit of being able to run apps that require root. You can debloat as well like you asked whether your preferred method is using tibu or root explorer to actually delete them (my preferred method), and if you dont like using either of those you can always disable them in the app manager. And you dont need root that route. In the themes and apps sub forum there are some mods for me7 as well.

What are some good things we can do with root without having boot loader unlocked? I've always been able to install custom roms, never been in this situation before. Damn verizon

Debloat, maybe some theming (not sure about this one), backup data, underclock CPU, edit system files like the build prop, etc.

Alright. What about root? Custom rom via safestrap or bootstrap? Anything? Lol

Temp root via Kingroot, but you don't get /system write access. No perm root, no full root, no ROMs, no bootloader unlock, etc
Thanks guys

I noticed something under Developer Options, *OEM Unlocking* Does that mean in the future Motorola will allow it?? I wish because with stock rom, it doesn't have much ram available. Well either way my sister will be happy, lol. Again thanx for your replies.

Motorola does allow it. VZW and ATT are the reason their versions are locked down. Sprint/TMo/USCellular/international are all unlockable via moto.
