pressing on the unwanted app & sliding it to the remove box does not remove app from screen, how else can it be removed from screen?
So if you hold it over remove and let go, it doesn't go off of your home screen?
If you want to get rid of an app that wasn't pre-installed app, go into Settings-Applications-Manage Applications. Find the app and hit uninstall
the preinstalled apps can't be removed unless you mess with the OS (which i wouldn't do unless you really know what you're doing).
Are you talking about the home screen or the app drawer? If you want to get rid of an icon on one of the actual home screens, long press and drag it over the remove section and it will turn red like the image below.
unwanted app was not preinstalled, i just don't want it anymore
tried that, don't work
