Greetings

I have a xperia z2 tablet that originally came with verizon data plan

I no longer have verizon data and have no sim card in the tablet...but i still use the tablet with wifi and as photo and video viewer.

I have no plan to use data on this device again.

I am getting messages when i boot and inturruptions about "no data card" all the time even in airplane mode.

When i delete certain verizon apps and/or disable them. They come back alive when the tablet reboots

The tablet is always trying to download verizon content and sometimes freezes up doing this.

I want to remove all the Verizon information on the tablet so i no longer get these messages.

Any ideas on what to look for or how to do it the best way?

Thanks for any help

Since your tablet it's locked to Verizon, you might not be able to do so, perhaps not restarting the tablet, I don't think flashing the tablet will work

If you want to take one for the team

you can use xperifirm or flashtool > flash the global generic firmware

thanks for your response

it seems the verizon apps are identifiable... so If i were to delete verizon apps and for some reason it screwed up my system, could i use the laptop sony/android repair to reset my system?
