How can I delete any system app? I deleted a wallpaper app in my app folder but I don't see any changes? I want to delete some apps especially default factory-installed apps. Is there a simple way?
I'm using a Samsung I9000 and I have some annoying apps that came pre installed by the phone vendor, like a music store, a custom web browser and other memory leaking apps.  Those crappy apps can't be uninstalled neither by Manage applications tool, nor by editing the apps tiles in the front menu.  I guess I have to be a root user or something to get rid of those apps, but I don't know how.
How does a calculator calculate the sine, cosine, tangent using just a number? Sine $\theta$ = opposite/hypotenuse   Cosine $\theta$  = adjacent/hypotenuse   Tangent $\theta$  = opposite/adjacent      In order to calculate the sine or the cosine or the tangent I need to know $3$ sides of a right triangle. $2$ for each corresponding trigonometric function. How does a calculator calculate the sine, cosine, tangent of a number (that is actually an angle ?) without knowing any sides? $$e^{i} = e^{i2\pi/2\pi} = (e^{2\pi i})^{1/(2\pi)} = 1^{1/(2\pi )} = 1$$  Obviously, one of my algebraic manipulations is not valid. Are the "umbles" etymologically related? From      And we show telltale signs of early hypothermia, what the doctor and   the National Institutes of Health and other cold-weather cognescenti   call the "umbles."      First we lose some fine motor skills, McLaren says, "and we start to   fumble. And tumble. And stumble."      Then our cognitive abilities are compromised. "We mumble and we   grumble."   Are the "umbles", such as fumble, tumble, stumble, mumble and grumble, etymologically linked, either in terms of sharing a common ending, or entire words having a common ancestor?  Trying to do a search of the etymology of the umbles ended up giving the etymology of the word  instead. Renaming accessor/mutator methods in Eclipse? Is there any way to automatically rename accessor/mutator when a variable they get/set gets refactored -> renamed (Eclipse 3.4)? Prove: The positive integers cannot be partitioned into arithmetic sequences (using Complex Analysis) How do I turn on workspaces? (Why do I only have one workspace?) It appears that Unity on Raring only comes with a single virtual desktop (aka workspaces) by default, and CCSM's Wall plugin has no way to add more. Is this configurable at all? How far can you go with rm -rf / as root How to exclude files from Visual Studio compile? I'm in the process of refactoring a project.  I've got an entire subfolder which is known to be broken.  Is there any declarative way to exclude that folder from the compile temporarily while I test the refactoring thus far?  I realize I could delete the folder, but I'd like to do this through configuration if possible. When would I use a voltage regulator vs voltage divider? When would you use a voltage regulator vs a resistor voltage divider?  Are there any uses for which a resistor divider is particularly bad? Association Bonus not removed upon account deletion Recently a user asked a question on Meta asking about his deleted account (I won't draw attention to him or his question unless it is really necessary but shouldn't be hard to find - at least until the question gets deleted1 as I don't know if it is relevant to this question).  However, while looking at his account, it appears as if he received the association bonus on all of his accounts, including the new Stack Overflow account he just created, but does not have any account with >200 rep.    The most likely scenario is that the deleted account had more than 200 rep and triggered  the association bonus, but that leads to 2 questions:   Why did his previously associated accounts retain the association bonus? Why did he get an association bonus on his brand new account?   Is this a  or ?  1 - The post in question was deleted by the OP several hours ago but before then the account was confirmed by a mod to be deleted due violations of a sock puppety nature (which I think everyone suspected at the time).  Given that the account in question was a sock puppet, I think it highlights an important reason for removing the association bonus when the account that triggered the bonus is deleted.  Theoretically, as long as he keeps getting the association bonus, he can go to any site and already have more than enough privileges to do damage. Suppose $G$ is a semigroup and it holds both left and right cancellation. Suppose $G$ is a semigroup and it holds both left and right cancellation. Also for each $a,b\in G$, $xa=b$ has solution in $G$. Prove G is a group.   I know this question looks very "old" style. First I think it's easy for me too since I already practice probelems like "semigroup, $xa=b$ and $ax=b$ have solution , then group" Or "finite semigroup, both left and right cancellation hold, then group ". But I still get stuck... My try:  First of course, for $xa=a$ , there exists $e_a$ such that $e_aa=a$. Now we need to proof $e_a$ is left identity for all elements. Then left inverse exists hence $G$ is a group. But the key is to proof $e_ab=b$ for all $b\in G$. I am looking for a quick way to sleep without closing the lid, or using the mouse.  If it matters, I have Lion version OS and a MacBook Air. Plural nouns in nominal compounds I wonder whether there are rules or guidelines regarding plural nouns in nominal compounds. For example a compound university students list. If there are many lists and many universities is it grammatically correct to say universities students lists? Must all elements be in the plural form or can some be left in singular, even though the meaning is plural? I've seen an expression universities student lists; is it correct? remote action function encountering CPU time out limit exception CPU time out limit was being hit while processing child records on the inline opportunity visualforce page, to handle this i wrote a remoteActionFunction on the page that invokes controller method that's taking long to process and when i get CPU LIMIT exception in the result, i am invoking javascript call back function that invokes a action function which handles the same code asynchronously(@future).  Question: by setting the timeout (Visualforce.remoting.timeout = 120000;) can't we overcome CPU TIME out limit of 10,000 ms. I'm trying to simulate a rope (that later might get pulled on the ends*) that interacts with some obstacles. So far I created a plane as the floor and a cube as an obstacle, and activated "collision" in the physics menu for both of them.   *(In the end the goal is simulating a .)  For modelling the rope, I tried using a long cylinder with enough subdivisions, and activate "cloth" in the physics menu. This resulted in the cylinder collapsing like a sleeve of a sweater, but I would like the cross section to remain roughly circular. Is there a way to directly avoid this?   Another approach I tried now was just using a a line made up of vertices and edges (with the idea of later adding modifiers to give it a thickness), but this just fell through all the collision objects as it has no faces. Is there good way to do this? Historical flight data outside of the USA? The question  only deals with flights in the US sourced from the  . Is there some similar source for EU, Asia etc? Problem of unbalanced data Is the set of all possible binary strings countable? Determine whether the given sets are countable or uncountable. Justify your answers either with bijections or using results/methods. The set of all possible binary strings. Note a binary string is a sequence of 0s and 1s.  If a binary string consists only of 0s and 1s, then is it even possible to find a bijection for it? A virtual file containing the concatenation of other files Is there a way of creating a filesystem object akin to this:  mknod files p cat file1 file2 ... fileN &gt; files   but such that it can be seeked in, as if it were a regular file?
