I had recently bought a HTC Desire on Orange. It has the Stocks app pre-loaded. I know I can’t remove this app but I can’t seem to stop it from updating itself every hour even though I will never use it. I’ve been to Accounts and Sync, Stocks and then onto Account Settings. And the ‘Update Schedule’ is for every hour. However this option is greyed out so I can’t reduce this or even stop it syncing at all. I’ve also been to the ‘Manage Application’ settings and all I can do there is selecting ‘Force Close’. I think it’s annoying enough having an app put on my phone that I can’t delete but to have it updating every hour and wasting my precious battery is even more frustrating. What can I do to disable Stocks apps on HTC Desire? Please help. Thanks.
