I'm sorry, and WHY is it malicious?
I'm sorry but what exactly is that supposed to mean? We don't all know what you kmnow so why wouldn't you just explin it to me instead of acting like a jerk?
or remove it with a custom script within terminal emulator, but thats a long explanation in itself
Thanks for the explanation, is there a how to guide u can link me to root my phone?rooted/unlocked your phone. opening up root access to your phone means you can essentially access any file on your phone, including system files. so, if you have "root" access you could essentially go into the system/app folder and take out goggles yourself.
I personally don't think its malicious, but it is VERY aggravating when you can't uninstall an app without root access (visual voice mail anyone?). But you did make a valid point in that it is foolish to trust something because of a brand name.

Why exactly is he being a jerk? Its just the highest talked about topic is all.
I'm guessing you are running the 2.1 update? Live wallpapers? If yes, then its going to be MORE difficult for you than it was for the rest of us because it was easier to root while running 2.0.1.
This is where i'd go, this site helped me get there 4 months ago. Video: Flashing SPRecovery SBF to Stock 2.1 | Droid Life: A Motorola Droid Blog

True true true......i was reading about it for months before actually doing it. You should be able to understand everything Idimick just posted BEFORE ROOTING. And yes, rooting can be very malicious if using the wrong rom or not following directions to the tee or just stroke of bad luck and it screws your phone up.
