IIRC, miketaylor00 posted up a script a while back to automatically remove a couple apps. I sent him a message with a link to this thread, but it looks like the board's Dominicano can help.
this would remove the apps:
Code:
su
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cd /system/app
rm VoiceDialer.apk
rm Music.apk
rm com.amazon*.apk
rm IM.apk
rm Mail.apk
rm Talk.apk
Just remove the .txt extension from the attachment
What's the difference between "rm" and "rm -r"?

the -r switch will make it recursive, but since we're not doing it to directory, we don't need it ... i was gunna add some more to the script to remove the data/data/ directories for each of those apps up there, but i gotta look to see what they are first
thankx this is great i knew i wasent the only1 tired of doing that...

yup just gotta be careful with removing an app that could be dependent on another app
Is there anything stopping me from combining both into one shell script? I was going to make a script to do this myself because I am so sick of that damn teeter app! I will never play it and almost every ROM has it included.

go ahead and combine them .. it should still work as long as you dont interleave the 2
also, the 2nd script doesnt need that mount command since we are messing with /data/ instead of /system/
I hand-typed the commands in console and received this error:
"mount: mounting /dev/block/mtdblock3 on /system failed: Invalid Argument
Any ideas?

a noob question... how do you run a script? and what do you mean by removing .txt extension...
thank you!!!
Save his file to your SD card, and rename it to RemoveApp.sh instead of RemoveApp.sh.txt. To run it, you can go into Terminal Emulator and type "sh /sdcard/RemoveApp.sh", substituting the correct file path where you have saved the script.

Tell me what I'm doing wrong here. I'm trying to make a script that will remove some apps whenever I flash a new rom. Here's what I thought would work:
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cd /system/app
rm com.amazon*.apk
rm Mail.apk
rm Development.apk
rm LatinIME.apk
To use it I type:
Code:
$ su
# sh /sdcard/apps.sh
and it just fails at every line. Any help would be appreciated.
On the first line try
mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
or your could shortcut it by using
mount /system
Stupid question, but do you have the permissions set to allow root access?
I've done that a few times to realize what my "mistake" was.
well you could just make a script for your PC something along the lines of
Code:
@echo off
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/app/com.amazon*.apk
adb shell rm /system/app/Mail.apk
adb shell rm /system/app/Development.apk
adb shell rm /system/app/LatinIME.apk
adb shell reboot
and rename it to a .bat or .cmd file

Ok so I did that and the script appears to be working. I'll test it when Cyanogen release another update with amazon... Adding the -t yaffs2, what exactly did that do?
The -t is a trigger saying that your going to specify what type of filesystem your mounting, yaffs2 is the type of filesystem

You can use adb: (enter after each line) Put Launcher.apk in C: 1st.
adb shell
rwsystem or mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
exit
adb push C:\Launcher.apk /system/app
or you can use terminal: (enter after each line) Make sure Launcher.apk is on the root of your sd card 1st
su
rwsystem or mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
rm system/app/Launcher.apk
cp sdcard/Launcher.apk /system/app
exit
exit
Hope this helped.
Exiting out will cause problems. A lot!
Rather than typing exit type reboot instead.

You don't use adb commands inside the shell.
C:\AndroidSDK/tools> adb remount
C:\AndroidSDK/tools> adb push HtcClockWidget.apk /system/app/
