    I just installed Skype on my A8Jn and did a terrible mistake letting PowerForPhone communicating with Skype. Every now and then I receive an error message from PowerForPhone, something with "argument", can't recall now. Can I stop PowerForPhone talking to Skype? Or the only solution is to unistall PowerForPhone? Is it ok to uninstall it?

    Thanks,

    If you're not using it, it's perfectly safe to uninstall it (one less piece of bloatware to slow down your system).

    You're right. done.

    I removed most of the bloatware they supply, don't really know why I decided to keep this one.
