In Astro File Manager, there is a utility built in that allows to take a backup of the apps in the form of .apk files, so that it can be installed later.
Try taking backup through that. You can select individual app of whom you want to take a backup.

I have checked that but it doesn't shows the Live Wallpaper which came preloaded with Desire such as Water :|

To backup system apps you would neet root. You can backup the apk using root explore or use titanium backup.. alternatively search for the apk on net you may find it

Well. It didn't lag in my case. Even played 1080p.
My problem is how to play *.dat files ?? That old VCD movie format.

I rooted my phone but now what????? Whats the use I cant guess. How can I remove the unremovable apps ? And is there any command line interface on Android What is busybox ?

if possible flash custom recovery and take nandroid backup. easier to restore to the default state if something goes wrong than the whole "flashing stock rom" way. Once flashed just remove bloatwares using titanium backup.

Try Android Terminal.

it is possible but suppose you removed some app and the browser starts to crash or some error creeps up saying android.process.media has stopped working. Then you'll end up flashing a custom rom or the stock rom and the process starts over again. So better to take a nandroid backup and then remove apps. I know titanium backup can take backup but i also know how buggy and unreliable that app is. If your luck is bad when restoring titanium backup will get stuck in the restoring process forever. I have faced this so many times in the past.

In my case Titanium backup got stuck taking a batch backup of all apps, twice, it works when I backup one by one, there is a setting that fixes the bug but hilariously you need titanium pro to get around that issue, its like paying for a bug fix, stupid software and greedy devs.

I only rely on CWM backups.
