How to Uninstall an app on your Android phone.
To remove an app from your phone you can start by pressing menu then settings or opening your app drawer and pressing the icon marked settings. Once you are there, tap the icon that is called “applications”. Select “manage applications”. This may take a minute or two to load all of the applications on your phone. Click the application you would like to remove. You may find it beneficial to click the clear data button before you uninstall it. This will clear up some space on your sd card that might have otherwise gotten left behind. From there just click the uninstall button and the app and it’s icons will be removed from you phone. You can always return to the android market and re-download it if need be.

*Some of the apps that come pre-installed on your phone may not be able to be removed. This is done by the manufacturer or your network service provider. Sorry.
**Unless your phone is low on disk space or you have discovered an application is malicious software, there is often no need to uninstall apps. If you don’t use it, you don’t use it. Resources will not be wasted.
