LG G3 some stubborn bloatware removal



Got this phone just recently as a replacement deal from Virgin (Canada), LG-D852 running on stock 5.0.1
Rooted last night to clean some vendor (Bell, Virgin) garbage but the titanium backup won't clean some of it even re-running the process 2-3 times.
I had to move some of the vendor supplied apps from "/system/vendor/app-bell/bell) over to /system/app" and only then the TB could clean them.
Some of the apps still I could only freeze, but
one is giving me a hard time, can't locate it in the system (it is not in the Settings/General/Apps list, also TB is not showing it) but in the apps launcpad the red icon is there and active, also it have several widgets at the very end of the widget list.
It is a "My Account" with a Virgin logo on the button, clicking on it want to connect somewhere on internet but unsuccessfully just running a loop (maybe I have butchered the roots well around it).
How can I remove these type of apps/widgets what the Titanium Backup can't see, or maybe it can see but under some different name as is the app/widget button (assume this button could be some sort of link to a separate process?).
