removing facebook,twitter,etc from settings menu

Hi, I have an iphone 5s ios 8.1 (jailbroken) and was wondering if anyone could help me find a way to remove facebook from the settings app menu.
It's purely for looks and I'm not worried about not being able to re-install them.
I have removed the facebook bundle using ifunbox, but I can't find how to remove it from settings.
Thanks for your help.

You can't. Develop the fortitude to ignore it.

"For looks"? How often do you "look" at that part of the Settings?

So when the time comes to upgrade your phone, will you be able to add those back? The next user might need them.

I made a backup of the string before I removed it so it shouldn't be a problem.
I don't really change phones so often, the last one I had was a Sony Ericsson which lost it's buttons over the years.

Everytime I scroll down it to try out a new tweak.

You're the only person I've ever known to remove those from Settings! Lol

When I googled it there were a bunch of people trying to do it but couldn't get any help, so I had to read through the strings to find it.
It was kind of interesting figuring it out.

Just did it, but thanks for your help anyway.

Ah, you should have mentioned you were jailbroken. It's a whole other ballpark.

KCH was right in that there is no way you can do this with a stock phone and seeing as 99% of people who come here aren't jailbroken and the other 1% usually mention it, he was right in his response.

Anyway, glad you got it done though.

Cheers, but I mentioned it in the op.
