If you want to remove HTC Sync...

[Guest Paul]

If like me you use a mac primarily, or just have no use for 'HTC Sync', you can reclaim the space and get rid of the annoying notification by doing the following (your device must be rooted);

adb remount

adb shell rm /system/app/PCSCII*[/code]

Job done! :D

I've tried this and keep getting the message:

remount failed: Operation not permitted

I'm running a rooted Hero. Is there anything I'm missing here?

Cheers :D

worked flawlessly to get rid of Mail, Sync, Learn more and a few widgets that i don;t use.

Cheers Paul, spot on as usual!

Nice one - little point in HTC Sync if you're running Linux, too!

[Guest James Munnelly]

Thanks for this! Worked straight away! :)

Does this remove the exchange support, or only the USB windows-sync?

[Guest Igniztion]

It removes the Windows sync afaik.

The Exchange sync is handled in the Mail app.

If you're unsure, you could just use adb pull to store the files on your computer, then delete them from the phone. If it breaks exchange sync then just push them back.

Pulled them all, so I'm safe :-)

Exchange seems to work fine :)

Great!
