hello
anyone knows how to delete the stupid facebook from your phone.

The always so forced to install apps that you then can not delete. I think I'm going to get Sony no longer with all the garbage in the

operation system.Unfortunately gibs not survey how satisfied you are with your phone.

Sorry for the bad english.

Are you aware that Sony Xperia phones have the least bloatware (preinstalled apps)? check other brands and you'll see, but after all, it's up to you to decide which brand to choose. You can always uninstall facebook. 

[hondaracer]

No I can not decide, Facebook can not be uninstalled, only the update can be uninstalled. Facebook itself is firmly implemented.
There are other manufacturers who supply their smartphones without forcing apps from.
And now not the answer then should I buy that. Because I think it well so far, only one gets forced apps not one wants or uses but still need to keep. 😞
Natrürlich there are other. but there is so much garbage on top apps you do not need and consume unnecessary memory. Why can not you decide for yourself what you want to keep and what not. Sorry but that bothers me generally to smartphones because of the major manufacturers. The other producer that begins with S .... g has already banned me. Hope Sony does not make the same mistake. They should not even know what to ask for the customer because was good and what. But unfortunately is not more respected it what customers want. The best example is indeed a certain Apple product. Since indeed goes only to the hype.

This varies per country, I am able to uninstall it, is your phone locked to a carrier/network branded? which country? 

Which other brands don't have preloaded apps? 

Are you aware that the phones that do not have any preloaded apps other than Google apps are Nexus phones, those are vanilla android, other than that phones will have preloaded apps. 

[hondaracer]

I have a free phone without branding
I bought it on the German market.
There is now one of the company WIKO. There is empty and you can be the top apps you want. It's just the basic system of Android on it.
But it looks as if you will be patronized in the German market again by the manufacturer. 😞
also some apps from Sony are unnecessary and you can not delete. although she never uses.
Well too bad.
But have to say anyway'm satisfied with the cell phone. Especially because it's so long ago by holding the battery. But then will probably bring me no tablet from Sony, because you can not delete some apps. Have already tried. Unfortunately, I have also found no other tablet representing my wish. So first gibs none.

I don't understand you, you want a SONY phone without SONY's apps? like getting a Samsung phone without Samsung apps? or an iPhone without Apple apps? or LG without LG apps? if you don't want bloatware get a nexus phone, but it will come with GOOGLE preloaded apps. If you want a Sony phone without preloaded apps third party and Sony's apps you have 2 options

1. buy a Sony PlayStation edition phone 

or 

2. ROOT your phone and uninstall any bloatware and/or preinstalled apps.

Some of the apps can be disabled. There is also an app that Thommo used to recommend,that can freeze bloatware:

they do not understand it comes that you can not delete some apps that you do not want. And that's when all the major manufacturers so Dan was forced apps gets. You do not need but still has. Whether Sony Samsung etc
Am superior whether I should try a free system of Android to make it. But since I already read the phone when you pitch has completely locks. And it is then worthless. Since Sony has installed a backup there.

but the whole makes no sense, because it is so as it is not ausieht with my smartphone uninstall possible as it looks. If it is for the German market.

just thought is there any trick that it is yet.

Thanks for the help

You can always contact Sony directly

and also Google Android dev department

@Thommo  any other suggestion?

[Thommo]

Just use the program on your Pc called Debloater @alexdon above mentioned - It won't delete it but it will freeze and render it invisible - The only way to fully uninstall is via root
