Blackberry: Uninstall and Delete Applications
Contributed by David Kirk 
Tagged: Blackberry Running out of room on your precious device? Do you have too many things installed? Remove those extra applications and make your some more room.
This will remove applications from your device. If these applications are essential or system related, you could break your device. It is always safer to just hide the icon and leave it on your device. Hiding the icon still means, however, that the applications is taking up room.
To reclaim the room, remove that app!
1. Go to the main screen
2. Select Options
3. Select Applications
4. Select the app you want to remove
5. Select Delete from the menu
6. Confirm deletion.

This is partially correct for the Blackberry Pearl 8130. If you have the Pearl, try this:
1. Go to the main screen
2. Select Options>ADVANCED OPTIONS
3. Select Applications
4. Select the app you want to remove
5. Select Delete from the menu
6. Confirm deletion.
The directions posted previously omit part of step 2.

you have to select the icon on your menu screen that looks like a wrench. it is titled ‘options’

I followed the above instruction and was able to delete the application from the list, but when I get back on the Home screen, the icon is still there. Did I miss something? Please help. I’m using BB8830.

the apps i wanted to delete were not listed in OPTIONS> APPLICATIONS (even if i hit the bb hard button and selected modules, they were unlisted).
However, I found them in OPTIONS> SERVICE BOOK. just select and delete such things as yahoo msger or googlr talk ect….
hope that helps!
