Until the master key was released, there was no safe way to delete locked applications from the newer Samsung phones (Mythic, Impression, Eternity). As the master key has now been found, this is possible. Follow these steps, but only if you want to permanently delete the included locked applications. I would suggest backing them up using TKFE, a process I will detail in another thread. This information is copied from the Samsung Impression website, so Agoattamer gets all of the credit.

Use Tkfile explorer to go to the locked folder that you wish to delete. Right click on the folder of the locked app and select delete.

Disconnect from TKFE.

Open up your dial pad and enter the following, *#6984125*#.

Choose INTERNALS and enter the following, *#3818790*#.

Now scroll down and choose Storage Settings. Then update Java DB, followed by update apps database.

You're done!

No this is to delete the locked apps in the games/apps menu. It doesnt allow for you to delete locked pics or tones. You are stuck with those locked pics.

The shortcuts on the menu are stuck there. We tried to link them to other applications but have been unsuccessful.

ok like i said in the "introduce yourself" thread, im all but a total noob at this. so if my question sound stupid, just let me say sorry now lol. ok on the the question.
i have looked and searched...
i would like to get rid of all the really pointless apps, att social net, wikimobile, mobile banking, stuff like that. i just dont know exactly where to find them on TkFE. i looked all through the phone on TkFE and im sure i looked at it like a dozen times. so in short just need to know where to look and what to look for.

thanks

HAHA cool worked like a charm! Thanks jjesusfreak01 and Stv. Would have never figured that out.

oh but one more question, do I need to disconnect and go through all the steps after every deleted app or can i delete all that I want to and than go through the steps?
