How to delete auto start apps in BlackBerry?

Question

Hello i had this bug in one of my apps. I can't uninstall it if its marked as an auto start app in Blackberry descriptor. When i turn off this option i can delete it.

Someone has experimented this kind of problem?

i have tried going to apps administrator but the option isn't showing there either.

NOTE: i installed this application through eclipse as DEV.

I found someone having the same problem as me here : https://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Java-Development/Deleting-an-autostart-app/td-p/1436287

You can run this command to force-delete an app, if you know the module name:

javaloader -usb erase -f example.cod

You can find the Javaloader executable inside the bin folder in your Blackberry SDK folder. For the eclipse plugin, you can also find it inside the component packs:

<eclipse folder>\plugins\net.rim.ejde.componentpackX.X.X_X.X.X.X\components\bin

(the X are the versions numbers, that might be different in your case).

You might also be able to do it from the device settings, inside the installed apps screen, if you change the view to list the modules.
