Settings > account > remove account

To remove per installed apps you must root the phone

Reset phone and log back in with your gmail account is the clean & legal way to transfer ownership.

Go to HTC Desire (Bravo) Index - Everything Desire is here! [18th/July/2012] - xda-developers for an index covering all things for the Desire- how to root,to s-off,flash a recovery image,roms and how to flash them etc.

Removing the 3 based rom and putting a new rom on the phone will give it a new lease of life.

thanks thats great all i need to know
why to mobile phone companys put apps on that you dont want or need that you carnt remove, & are just takeing up space!
then we'd not have to go looking for ways of debranding them
