If you want to completely uninstall them, go to /data/app (some may be in /system/app) (root required), or if you just want to disable them, go to Settings->Apps->All
The white bar where the small apps are, can't (easily) be removed.

Thread below suggests it may be possible. Can you post back results?

Which way did you use to delete these two apps? With ASTRO File Manager I can't delete them...

Are you rooted? Go to /system/app (i use Solid Explorer), and just delete or backup (i.e just move them to the SD card) the two files (or four if it's an odexed ROM), and reboot.

Yes, my Xperia Z Ultra is rooted. It worked great with Solid Explorer. Weird ASTRO File Explorer behavior...
All stupid Small Apps are now gone. Thanks a lot!

I was able to install the homescreen.apk and battery3d.apk but it won't let me install the weather.apk says something like "an existing package with he same name and a conflicting signature is already installed". I'm not rooted. Installing using astro file manager.
Do I need to be on ics to use this?

Can somebody post the .apk file for the calendar widget? It actually has a full-month view, which previous versions of the Moto calendar widget lacked. I'm currently running the Atrix HD launcher, circle clock, and weather, so I imagine this should work as well. Here is a screenshot from the Add Screen > Start with a Template > Mobile Office screen:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

Adding this screen fails of course, without the new widget. Can anyone help?

Try using Widgetsoid instead. Also you can customize it to match Samsung's own toggles. See my screenshot.

Tip: Tablet apps on Z Ultra directly from Play Store!

I'm not sure everyone is aware of this but you can install tablet apps on this thing directly from Play Store.
I noticed straight away that Play Store was running in tablet mode on this phone and hence tablet apps will be visible and you can also install them.
Love it!
Windows 8 Metro Launcher as an example. And Adobe Photoshop Express.

Yes I haven't changed a thing I'm not even rooted. Pure stock.
So you're saying you don't have this priviliege on your Z when running pure stock?

I can see them too, I get the option for a few tablet apps without root or any mods. Loving that launcher btw, thanks for that!

No problem! Yeah the launcher is super sexy.
A performance update for it is scheduled for this week.

I've noticed this too, however it's not for all apps. CNN, for example, only shows their phone app, and unfortunately Flipboard only displays a the phone version too. This is on a completely stock ZU.
