        FOR LG CLASSIC:
        Open it and click shift while right click
        click "open windows powershell here"
        Plug in phone, put usb connection as charging, and allow usb debugging (##228378-call- developer options - usb debugging - on.)
        in the powershell window, enter the commands
        .\adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.browser
        .\adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.mms
        suggestion: restart phone at the end

          Atusb Does the reset button work after doing all those steps?

            chaimzalman Yes. The only way it wont work is if you get a filter (from tag or geder etc.)

                Atusb You may have to put USB connection as file transfer or MIDI device in order for it to be recognized.
                Also you first need to enter ./adb devices

                  Lev26 usually only works on charging mode.....

                    Atusb So why are you advising someone to do those steps for his son if the phone can easily be reset?

                      The best option (which is also free) is [Login to see the link] provided by gentech. This is a free option although it requires you to install it yourself.

                      Tag, Geder, and Meshumer should be able to help you install the above filter if you need help.

                      In regard to the many other filtering options available, we cannot give a recommendation for any of them since we have not tried them, nor have we gotten user feedback on them yet. Therefore we strongly suggest going with the above as it has been tried and tested.

                      If you want to remove stuff yourself here are the following ADB commands.

                      Browser
                      adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.android.browser

                      FM Radio
                      adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.lge.fmradio

                      Email
                      adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.lge.email

                      Texting
                      adb shell pm uninstall –user 0 com.android.mms

                      Atusb Not on the phones I used...
                      Every phone is different.

                          Lev26 I Always use charging mode. No other mode works for me. I have done hundreds of phones. Maybe it depends on the adb host device (computer)?

                          oh....

                          people should bare in mind that filters are not a good safeguard to be dependent on, as all filters some way or another can be breached which make every device a potential problem regardless of its filter status....the best filter is the one that u create within urself meaning that u are properly aware of the risks and u are very well educated about why u shouldn't want an unfiltered device, this changes the dependency to something more realistic...and only then can u take advantage of a filter which will aid you in protecting what u instilled in yourself. of course never trust yourself, because the facts are that u simply cant always trust yourself, but a filter is much more powerful when it is used with a person who is himself "filtered", because both him and the filter are going in the same direction.

                          just some wisdom to ponder....
