Well Verizon and Samsung have pre-installed apps on my phone that milk data

at my expense? Is this ok?

Thank You,

Bridget

Yes, they can have pre-installed apps on your phone which can use data and yes, you can disable those apps.

Additionally, you should not post your phone # and email on a public forum. It is having your contact information in such places which can increase your chance of increased spam calls/emails and/or identity theft.

It's an automatic signature.... Verizon also has a disclaimer stating it

doesn't share my information

To me that is a bully attempt at keeping people from disabling apps so they

can milk data

Yes, but it is a signature YOU created which will be added to the end of ALL of your forum posts. Don't include your personal information in such a signature.

No, Verizon won't share your information. In this instance YOU are the one sharing it.

No, the phone gives a warning the phone MAY not operate correctly. This is simply to inform you to be careful of what apps you disable, because disabling some apps WILL cause the phone to not operate. This is not the case for ALL apps, though. If you are unsure, ask.

As I have stated before, I, as do many other android users, have multiple apps disabled without affecting the phone functioning correctly.
