Default Clean Install?

Please Login to Remove!

Is there a possible way to perform a clean install of 3rd party app like Beejive from my phone?

I have been having problem with this software, i have tried to uninstall and reinstall it several times, but it seems like it detected it former existence, everytime I reinstall it, it will place it the old location among my other applications and all my messenger a/c will be added automatically.

The only thing to try would be to uninstall it, do a battery pull, and then re-install it when it reboots.
Not sure if you can find the settings in a database otherwise.

Maybe someone else can contradict me, but this is what I have observed.

When uninstalling applications and/or themes, some "user modifiable settings" are held internally in the device even after removal. Not sure there is a way to change this.

If it irritates enough to go this far, then try a security wipe and choose to delete third-party applications. Then restore calendar, contacts, etc from backup, then download all third-party and add-on apps again. But do a full backup first.

I'm not 100% sure that will solve your problem. For all I know there are user settings stored on the server. But give it a try if it's worth it.

It is true if an app stores the user data as strings in the persistent store then it will still remain even when you delete the app.
