Found a free Android Anchor Drag App, it is free and very basic but a can work as a back up. Android Speedometer.
 
Dale, there are a bunch of speedometers. Which one are you using?
 
On my phone I would go to settings then applications then manage applications sellect the app in question then delete is an option.
 
If it an andr. hold your fing on app till it turns red, and it will go to first page of phone and drag to center bottom to waste can.
 
Download "uninstaller" from the market. When you open it, a list of all your apps come up. Click on the one you want to delete and hit ok.

Are you sure this uninstalls the app and simply doesn't remove the icon for it?

I still can't find the app in question I would like to try it.
 
Dragging only removes the app from certain pages. The app is still on your app page, and still installed. Go to the app store and download "uninstaller" I use Uninstaller pro. Simple and free.
 
Oh sorry Dave, you were asking about the anchor drag app. That, I would like to know also.

Thanks for the tip on that app. I have been trying since I got my Droid to remove the useless apps on the screens.

I used this program and can not get Twitter or Facebook off of my phone !!! They must pay Droid a ton to make their apps non-removable.
 
there is good one on apple for ipod/pads/phone called anchor alert.

On the Droid, just go into Market, then from the Menu button, select My Apps, when your social network, Twitter, MS or FB comes up, click on it. Then click on Uninstall. You also can unistall any other apps you've downloaded or installed from this page.

Jamie-that does not work. When I go the "market" and hit the menu button then hit "my apps" all I get is a list of apps that I have downloaded. My menu does not show the apps that were loaded on the phone when I got the phone. I swear I think FB,TWITTER,etc paid Droid to make these apps so you can not remove them.
 
Ahhh, I see what you mean now...I'm not sure how to remove the factory apps from the Droid.

Sorry about that.
 
You can't uninstall the stuff that come on the droid unless you hack the system. Risky, and may void the warranty.

On the newer Samsung Fascinate and and others preinstalled programs can be removed. Unfortunately I am stuck with the original Droid.
MP3 Amazon is the one that torques me off it runs all the time, I never use it and never intend to use it. The other BS are preinstalled programs that use locate functions (GPS, ect) running the battery down.
 
Download app called Advanced Task Killer
Will turn off all unwanted apps that spontaneously start up (at amazingly short intervals).
You will be surprised when monitoring, how quickly many apps reactivate after you turn them off.
Task Killer shuts them down each time . . .
Increased my battery time by a multiple of three!
