Nokia :: Is Bloatware Anti-Competitive?
Mar 3, 2010
The European Commission's DG Competition successfully forced Microsoft to allow users choice in the selection and installation of browsers.
Nokia's forcing of JokiuSpot, Qik, Boingo and Vlingo on customers and not allowing this bloatware to be uninstalled seems equally anti-competitive.
It would be nice to see DG Competition turn their attentions to the mobile software market. Perhaps this would finally rid those of us that don't want it from being forced to accept such software. It would also assist in ensuring fair competition in the mobile software market.

Does one need to install a Anti-Virus in N900 ? Or can he just keep using it as it is without having to worry that a Virus will infect it.

I have a rooted HTC One M7 and I was wondering if there is a way to PERMANENTLY delete bloatware while it's still S-ON. Usually the apps just come back and I really just want them gone for good.

Motorola / Verizon take note: Your competition is starting to get the picture.
HTC EVO 3D owners can now delete carrier preinstalled software bloatware without rooting their devices.
From Android Central:

and confirmed by numerous owners in the forum comments
When will you listen to your customers, MotoRizon?

I like one called "i got ya" as it take's a photo of the theff when they enter the wrong pin number and sends it to your e-mail, The ony down side is that to get this app you must jailbreak you phone to get the "i got ya" app.

I have been asked by my work to ensure that I have one but I don't think that one exists or is needed.looking for firm confirmation of this so I can show something official to work to assure them that it is all covered.

I recently opened an SMS which contained a virus (wiped out my apps, games, texts & handset memory... ) but luckily it didnt affect my memory card. I can now use my phone again tho in a limited capacity, but i'm worried that the virus may still be lurking somewhere. I contacted '3' who sent me a link for a free virus scan via F-Secure, but when I followed the link it said my W995 phone was not supported (only a handful of SE sets are on its list). After a web search I found 'Matt Java antivirus free download' - but I don't know if this is safe or effective.

when looking through a antiglare iphone screen cover before application, it looks kinda fuzzy. Will the front facing camera be blocked or hindered through an anti-glare cover? Im holding off on pulling the trigger on which to buy; crystal or anti-glare. What are your thoughts?

Are antivirus programs needed with Android? I ran one for a while on WM but it seemed to slow everything way down on the system.I thought I had read that android was fairly protected but it could pass from your phone to your pc when plugged in via usb.

I currently use the anti-glare Power Support film on my 3GS. I love the anti-fingerprint part, but I don't like the fact that I have to press so hard on the screen with the film on to type, etc..... Is there any other film that doesn't take so much screen functionality away?
