A question about rooting

[Droid DOES!!]

Don't delete bloatware, rename it with Root Explorer or freeze it with Titanium Backup Pro!

Succesful rooting thanks for the help guys (gals?). Now to remove bloatware.

Renaming the apps from "com.blahblah.apk" to "com.blablah.bak" and rebooting causes the phone to not recognize the app. If you want to take an OTA update, its as simple as changing bak back to apk.

Try ES File Explorer. You'll need to enable root under Options so that you can make changes to files under systems.
