Did you delete apps from system/app or moved to /data/app and then uninstalled it?
The correct way to remove default apps is to move then from system/app to data/app, reboot and the uninstall it opening settings/manage applications.
If you just deleted apps from system, its better to repair your phone with SEUS and remove stock apps with correct way. Believe me, I removed apps before without uninstalling then and system was sucking my battery very fast. Just make a repair, uninstalled things correctly and now my phone is so much better.
Wat is the need of removing the app make backup of that and replace wid the android default calendar...

Yes i think i have deleted directly from System/app :-(
but i think there is a way to install it with ADB no?
maybe i can put original SE calendar and remove again the correct way?
I didn't try it, but I think u can...

Did the "rm /system/app/Candendar.apk" and wondered why it didn't work.
The system keeps some files in memory and they survive the "rm" command. Fixed this by doing;
1. Setting> Applications > Manage Applications and removing all calendar named apps, (there were about 4 still including com.sonyericsson.calandar!)
2. Restart phone.
3. Copy standard Calendar and CalandarProvider across (I used scp and dropbear, you could do the same with adb or rootexplorer) Files are here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9434204&postcount=2
4. Restart phone. (I didn't need to run the "install" command, files were "chmod 644" already)
Now have the standard calendar rather than the SE calendar!
Solved ! thanks
I tried deleting the .apk with root explorer,
the apk and .odex disappears from the category and is still in the the appdrawer, after a reboot i can see it again under system/app
This is a way but i don´t like it... to time-consuming.
http://jaxov.com/2010/09/how-to-remove-stock-default-android-apps-easily/
I think the best way is via titanium backup, paul o´briens way (Force Remove App). But then i just can choose one and how fun is it to reboot every time when you have like 10 gapps you want to delete. Is there anyway to delete several in just one reboot?
also tried root uninstaller without luck
Tried installing google music from market and get cc. Tried clearing cache and dads. No luck. Running snowball from yesterday morning. Any other ideas? When I ran zergy, it worked fine.
Book tablet rooted with snowball. Mod.
I have the same issue, it´s probably one of the CM7 librarys that corresponds with the actual system rom which causes the google music error.
Do you know if there is a solution? Old version etc...?
Did you try moving it from data/app to system/app and fixing permissions?
Any update on this? Its the only issue I am having. The app opens fine for me but FC's when I try to play a song. Like OP said, Music worked under indirect's method but not under snowball.

lavero.burgos ,
I am not sure how to do move it. Are there installed files to move or do you move the .apk and then install from the other location?
Thanks,
Jeff

Just a move of the apk its like "cut & paste" nothing else once pasted you can reboot if you want don't think its necessary and check if it still FC. Report back.
Use root explorer or ES file explorer to move it to /system/app/ you need to change to r/w (read and write) instead of r/o then you can successfuly paste the .apk

My data/app folder is empty. I don't find the musicc apk anywhere as I look around anywhere else including sys/app. Sorry, apparently I am lame.
I tried moving it from data/app to system/app and fixing permissions, still getting FC's on trying to play a song. Any other suggestions?

and when i add them to (data/app) they also force close

If you have FCs on your phone, try to wipe cache (and Dalvik cache) in recovery mode first.
To install apps, you do not need to copy the files into special folders.
Just click the apk file and select install.
The app will install from apk file automatically, if there is no "old" version installed and all required things (access, other apps, phone model, etc.) are available.
If you are not sure about installed apps, just check in settings menu: Settings > Applications.
Or use an app like Titanium Backup to manage your apps (+ app data).
oh please, im not a noob, i know how to install apks, i need to pre include them in my rom,
certain apks, for example "ChatOn", when i install it normaly it will work with no problem,
but when i put it in system/app it will force close when i first start the phone
the same goes with data/app
Hi,
I'd like to know how to safely delete system or ROM pre-installed applications that don't offer an "Uninstall" option. I am rooted and running 5.0.2 on a Nexus 6. I know I could do this with Titanium or other similar apps but my point is to not install a specific app just for deleting apps if I can find the correct path/file from Root Explorer and remove it myself.
Thanks

from my experience the best that you can do is to use root explorer and goto system/app or system/priv-app and delete folder-app you do not need, then goto data/dalvik-cache, search for apk name and delete also program *.dex, so this is a clean method, make a reboot for clearing apk data !
It's safer to rename the app instead of deleting it... "freezing" apps often just add ".fro" to the app's name (whatever.apk.fro, for example) to keep it from appearing in your app launcher or loading. If anything goes wrong because of the "missing" app, you can easily restore it.
