    With most phones you can Remove browser with adb, though it’s not foolproof because it will come back if you reset the phone
    adb shell pm uninstall — user 0 com.android.browser

    [Login to see the link] for Exalt and Classic
    with this filter you can’t install apps and it’s also safer because you can’t reset the phone.
    NOTE: if you block texting with this filter it will block voicemail notifications as well. Try uninstalling messaging with adb BEFORE setting up the filter and not blocking it (adb won’t work once the filter is on). Also the filter won’t block video or email on the classic even if you select it so you should uninstall it with adb if you want it blocked.

    Be careful not to install a filter (I did livigent some time ago) over a home app that's not the default one
    as it will block it leaving you stuck with a black screen with just the notification bar showing with most buttons unresponsive.

      ChaseChiller You also did that? Did you find a solution? I haven't got my phone working after that.

        I discovered that using the SOS button to make a call,
        then pressing add call, allowed me to enter the secret menu.
        I was hoping that since I could now access the Livigent app that I could remove it (it was the old version) , however my phone would lag and then crash on the menu and app. (Plus I couldn't even uninstall the home app as it was locked as default.)
        This may have just been since my sim card had no service, but without it the SOS button wouldn't 'call'.
        Try it out though, maybe it will work for you.

          ChaseChiller Okay will try (I have a feeling I never set up SOS). I have been trying to call my phone from a different number, and then access menu, but haven't had luck. maybe will work with sos. but same like you, my phone just lag and can't handle anything even simple.
