The operation is being done in several ways and the process of deleting depends on whether you want to get rid of a third-party program or if you want to delete built-in apps.

Third-party apps deleting on HTC One XL (Black)

If we are talking about programs, which the user installed on the phone himself (through Google Play or APK-file), you can use one of the four methods of deleting.

Through the home screen

After installing of the program its icon appears on the home screen on in the apps list. You can get rid of it right here, by following some steps:

  1. Hold your finger on the icon of the app.
  2. In the appeared window, click «Delete».
  3. Confirm deleting.

Depends on version of the firmware deleting item will appear either in additional window or the user will have to move the icon to the trash bucket. After that, all unnecessary apps will disappear.

Through the settings

This variant is suitable for all smartphones based on Android operating system, including HTC One XL (Black). For deleting, you need to:

  1. Open settings.
  2. Go to the section «Apps» (might be called differently).
  3. Choose the program.
  4. Push the button «Delete» or «Uninstall».

Further, you only need to confirm uninstallation, and the application will not bother you anymore. Moreover, if this method will not lead you to the desired result, use one of the additional ways, described lower.

Via Play Store

If the app is installed through the Play Store or you installed the program that is in store, through APK-file, you can delete unnecessary apps on HTC One XL (Black) right through Google Play. For this, you need to:

  1. Launch Play Store.
  2. Open the list of installed programs or find the app yourself, using the search bar.
  3. On the program’s page, press the button «Delete» or «Uninstall».

No matter which way you decide to use, deleting will be similar. It is only important not to mix up the program and do not get rid of something useful.

With a help of special programs

Apps for deleting other programs are considered along with standard ways of uninstallation. For example, consider CCleaner, available as on PC, as on Android:

  1. Launch CCleaner.
  2. Go to the section «Apps manager».
  3. Tick unnecessary programs.
  4. Push the button «Delete».

You can also use any other program, performing the function of apps uninstallation. In all cases, deleting process will be similar.

Standard apps deleting

Unlike third party programs, it is much more difficult to delete system apps on HTC One XL (Black). This is due to the fact, that software is developed by creators of the smartphone and its uninstallation might lead to the serious crashes in device operation. If this fact does not stop you, choose one of the two options for further actions.

Disabling

By default, built-in apps cannot be removed. You can only turn them off:

  1. Go to the settings.
  2. Open apps section.
  3. Choose the program.
  4. Press the button «Force stop».

The essence of this operation is that the user blocks the operation of the standard program. Consequently, it stops to consume the resources of the phone, but at the same time remains in its memory.

Full deleting

The way, letting to delete standard programs forever. The truth is that in this case the owner of HTC One XL (Black) will have to do some note the simplest steps:

  1. Download Android Debug Bridge (ADB) on your computer.
  2. Using Play Store, download the App Inspector on your phone.
  3. Connect on HTC One XL (Black) with PC.
  4. Unpack the ADB archive to the root folder of the disk.
  5. Launch the command line with administrator rights.
  6. Process the requests «cd c: /adb», «adb devices», «adb shell» by pressing the «Enter» button after entering each of them.
  7. Open the App Inspector on your smartphone.
  8. Tap on the program’s name.
  9. Copy or remember the information from the «Package Name» point.
  10. In the command line of the computer enter request «pm uninstall -k --user 0 *Package Name*», where put the previously considered information instead of «Package Name».
  11. Press «Enter».

Yes, this option can hardly be called simple, but it is safer. For example, standard apps uninstalling is doing much faster through Titanium Backup, but it requires root-rights. In the previous way, you do not need these rights, that is your smartphone will remain under warranty and all available programs, including banking applications, will work.
