If I do this to the Verizon apps what will happen?

How do you plan to disable them?

How do you plan to disable them?

First you have to have ICS for this to work:
goto apps
drag app up to "more options"
then hit "app info"
hit "clear data"
hit "Clear cache"
hit "force stop"

- that cleans up the junk it may leave behind

Disable (uninstall updates then go back into app info and then hit disable)

Its a good way to get rid of the Verizon bloatware the phone comes with. Verizon wont do anything to you it just wont be active on your phone hence the disabling action.

So its ok to disable them then right? It won't mess anything up?

It wont mess anything up unless you disable the browser then you wont be able to surf the internet. :P They are still installed on your phone just deactivated, so you are not removing anything and you can always activate themby going to manage apps in the all apps section you can scroll down to the bottom and you will find them there to activate.

Disabling stock apps can cause issues,for example :if u start havin a weird problem with one of ur apps,including your downloaded ones u had for a long time,it maybe u have to go back n test it n figure out which one is doin it,95% of the time tho,youll be fine..jst look out for it
