Usually, Android-based smartphones purchased through various carriers are bundled with specific branded apps that may or may not be protected. Users who cannot afford to buy free-of-contract devices might want to remove these applications without tempering with the operating system.
Unfortunately, carriers that bundle their own-branded 3rd-party apps install them right into the Android operating system and not on the memory card, like you'll usually see. Since a normal user won't have access to the Android OS where the app is installed, they won't be able to remove it.

Hard reset on your Samsung Galaxy S5
If you are having problems with a very laggy, glitchy Galaxy S5 and no other solution seems to be working, you can perform a hard reset in order to fix these issues. This should really be done at a last resort because it erases all of the data on your phone and reverts it back to the way it was when you first got it. A factory and hard reset basically are the same thing but a factory reset, which we explain in another thread (factory reset Galaxy S5) uses the software features of the phone, while a hard reset uses the hardware buttons.
Before doing anything though, you want to make sure that you have backed up all of your data beforehand, which you can do right in the settings under factory reset, or you can use an app like Carbon for Android, Super Backup, App Backup & restore, Titanium Media Sync, G Cloud Backup. You can also backup your data to an external drive: you can backup your Android data as a copy of the SD card that you keep on your PC by connect your Android to your PC via the USB cable for example.

How to install Android KitKat on the Galaxy S3
We realize that all these different firmware options for various different Galaxy S3
smartphones might be a little confusing, so we thought we'd spell out
just what you have to do if you want to manually install the latest
official Samsung firmware version of Android 4.4 KitKat on your Galaxy S3 rather than wait around for the carrier rollout to happen.
No matter what model Galaxy S3 or version of KitKat, we'll show you how it's done.
Because it only takes one over the air update for a very nice person to
make it available for everyone, as soon as the firmware is available for
your model you can put it on your phone yourself rather than waiting
for the carrier batching process which may have you waiting for weeks or
even months to see the latest Android version. There's nothing dodgy
about doing it this way either: Samsung even provides you with the tools
to do it.
