How to Remove Bloatware on the LG G Flex (All Carriers) (Video)

Most Android devices, nowadays, come with, what we call, bloatware. You’ve seen it. All of the apps and services that seem to magically be on your phone the minute you take it out of the box, but you never really wanted? Yeah, that’s the stuff. The bloatware is installed by
