    How do I Delete an App for good?

    I want to remove forever an application I downloaded.

    Don't like it.

    It don't want to go away.

    Help!

    I want to remove it completely from the phone, not just off the desktop. I tried holding it down and dragging it to the trashcan but it's still in my App Folder every time.

    Thanks in advance........

    There are two ways, one way is to go into the app store, then click menu and then hit downloads, it will bring up all the apps you've downloaded, from that screen click on one and hit uninstall.

    The other is to go into the settings > applications > manage apps > delete them from there
    Resistance is futile.
