Remove City ID from Verizon LG Cosmos

Hi Tom T - Pop ups are a real pain in the rear. I have yet to come across a pop up that brings a benefit with it. I even had my cell phone provider remove anyone's ability to send me text messages after I experienced one after another texted advertisements. Yes, pains in the rear! Nice article here. Voted it up and useful. Thanks.

Gus :-)))

Thanks a lot for this page. worked like a charm. i appreciate it.

i have had this city id pop-up bothering me nonstop for 4 days. i had no idea how to get it to stop and it seemed to be coming up with increasing frequency. i am glad i found this post and immediately removed the app. thanks again.

thank you!!!

Thank you

Just wanted to say a huge thanks for posting this. It was driving my wife absolutely nuts, so our house now remains intact. :)

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks... I removed it from mine. It was really aggravating....

Thank you!!!! That was sooo annoying and your answer was sooo easy :)

Thanks! Big time.

Thanks for the advice on the City ID - got rid of it just like you said.

How do I get rid of ads for VZ navigator,city scoop and such from my LG Cosmo Touch? Help-it's really Annoying especially when I did not down load them or want them!!

I got rid of mine too, it was a pain. Go to Browse & downloads and then go to remove...woola!! gone! :)

Thank you SO much for posting this! I was getting very frustrated with seeing this pop-up every time I turned on my phone, and it was only going for 1 day. So glad I don't have to deal with it anymore!

I was having the same problem and I came across your post. But instead of following your instructions I thought I'd give Verizon a call and make them go through the effort of telling me how to uninstall it. Verizon claims they did not push this out as part of an update and that it was most likely installed when my son downloaded and installed a free ringtone from Amazon.

Thank you so much.. my 1 year old had activated vznav and I called to cancel it, but I didn't know how to remove it. thanks for the tip, plus I learned how to get rid of that annoying CityID app too!

Thank you for the help to get rid of the annoying pop up.

Thank you so much!! When I took it to the Verizon store, they just told me to upgrade the software, which didn't help. I wish they had told me this!

Thank you for posting this. I am so glad I came across your page :)

Thanks so much, that "feature" has been annoying me for months

Thanks greatly. This thing has been driving my wife crazy for months. Your page here is going to save her (and me) a lot of aggravation!

Thank you thank you what an incredibly annoying "feature."

Thank you soooooo much for this info.

Thanks a ton, ive been dealing with that stupid thing since i got the phone over a year ago, glad to see it finally go

It's gonna get worse

Today I received a disturbing post from Verizon - telling me that they will start sending me cell advertising and I do not have the ability to opt out.

Can you imagine the distraction, the complete disregard for privacy, the lost wages from our employees and most important - the safety factor - all phones can be hands free.

How can this grab for profits be stopped at the expense of our loved ones.

Thank you

THANK YOU SO MUCH

Thank you thank you THANK YOU!!!! I'm so pissed off that this thing keeps popping up all of a sudden. I've had the phone over a year and now it's started doing this.

Oh MY GOD!!! I love you! Thank you for showing me how to get the City ID off. It was pissing me off!

TY so much. This was driving me crazy.

Thank you very much. We have 2 phones, my was not getting this popup, but it was happening on my wifes phone after every call. It's been driving her crazy for the past couple of weeks. I just found out about it over the weekend, and your directions enabled me to correct the problem within a minute. Thanks Again.

Thank you so much for the info! I know this article was directed for Verizon LG Cosmos owners, but I have the Verizon Samsung Reality and it worked on mine, too! I was getting pretty annoyed with this pop up thingy and decided to give your directions a whirl! All I can say is THANK YOU!!!!
