Do you use SystemPanel and Titanium? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I use SystemPanel to identify apps that are running, and Titanium to freeze apps that I don't want to run. Here is a list of apps that I have safely froze, and a list of apps that I am considering freezing but too scared because I don't know for sure what they do.
Apps that are safe to freeze:
AllShare -- never ran it, so I don't know what I am missing
Buddies Now -- never ran it, so I don't know what I am missing
com.sec.android.samsungapps.una --not sure what it was, but I don't seem to miss it
Daily Briefing --downloads news and stuff to show in its widget.
DRM Protected Content Storage --needed for the Avatar movie.
DRMContentLauncher --needed for the Avatar movie
Fancy Widget --comes with macnut
QuickOffice --lets you view MS Office documents. Not sure why it would need to run all the time though
SNS --social networking sync. I think it's needed for the social hub
SNS Account -- same as SNS above
Social Hub --an app that shows FB and twitter posts
Visual Voicemail --Never used it or needed it. Who uses voicemail anymore??
Voice Dialer --I don't use voice dialing
Wi-Fi Calling --Freezing this one is strange because it still shows as running even after being frozen. Maybe it should be deleted???
wssyncmlnps --another syncing app for one of the apps that I have froze above, I believe
Apps that I am considering freezing, but too scared since I don't know what they do:
BadgeProvider
com.sec.android.providers.downloads
Mobile tracker settings
My Uploads
Task Manager
Wi-Fi Calling --well, I know what this does, but freezing it won't stop it, so it might need to be deleted.
MTP Application
Gallery --why does this continue to run in the BG all the time?
HTC_IME mod
LogsProvider
Processes running under System Processes that I am considering freezing, but too scared since I don't know what they do
mmcqd 0.2
sensorserver_ya 0.1
mediaserver 0.1
rild 0.0
evetns/0 0.0
pvr_workqueue 0.0
zygote 0.0
Anyone want to add to the list, or explain what some of the apps that I am considering freezing actually do?
By the way, I am using the Macnut R13 ROM.

hey nice list...
one question off topic
i can't seem to find Social Hub in my r13 rom..... do you? i know Samsung IM & Email are probably part of samsung social hub.. but i cant seem to find the social hub app itself... weird..

All ROM Devs have removed wifi-calling because you can never shut it down and it eats through your battery.

I'm running Obsidian V5 and I uninstalled wifi calling all together.. I dont plan on using it. Here's others I froze/uninstalled without seeing any issues or anything:
- android live wallpapers 2.2 (dont use any)
- buddies now
- calendar 1.1 (dont use)
- calendar storage 1.1
- calendar sync
- car home 1.2
- car home 2.2
- desk home 1.0
- email 2.2
- feeds & updates (not sure what it is, but hasnt affected anything ive noticed)
- files 1.0
- google voice 0.4.2.8
- live wallpaper picker 2.2
- manage online album 1.0
- samsung apps 1.2.183
- talk 1.3 (dont use it - dont know what it is but always running)
- task manager 1.11
- voice dialer 2.2
- voice search 2.0.1

Wifi calling can be uninstalled through Titanium, but you need to reboot immediately because it will cause constant FCs.
As for the others, I wouldn't touch sns or the providers.downloads. The latter is necessary for market downloads I believe. Also leave the system processes alone unless you want to Odin back.

hello, uhm i just installed titanium backup pro (TBP) and i have one question:
does TBP need to stay running on the background for frozen apps to stay frozen?

No, it doesn't need to run in the background (i.e., just freeze or un-freeze with TB and you're set to go).

List of freezable apps (updated 11/18 7:00 pm EST, many apps added)

For as long as I've been a member here, I don't think I've ever started two threads in one day in a Dev section that I was so unsure belonged in the dev section... so Mods, please forgive if this is in the wrong place.
I thought it would be helpful to get a running list of apps that can be frozen with Titanium that won't cause any FC's or other problems. I'm a bit extreme with this, I think, compared to most... I tend to freeze (or remove) a LOT of stuff.... but so far I haven't caused any problems. Here is my list:

So far, so good. And I've little doubt that much more can be removed... on my Dinc, I always ran a Sense ROM, but I'd run them REALLY lean. I will be experimenting more with what can be removed and will update the list as I do...

Good looking out! Looks like i can freeze a couple more!
Thanks for testing all of that and posting the list.

Do these apps re-install after a reboot like others are reporting with temp root or does "freezing" have better results than deleting?
Freezing them sticks after reboots. It is almost as good as removing them.
But OP, you really went to town on the freezing.
Thanks for testing these! Appreciated.

hahah I said in the first post, I freeze a LOT of stuff. You can freeze as few or as many of those apps as you need, I just wanted to guinea pig it and see what would crash, so far no issues.
As mentioned above, freezing DOES stick after a reboot. However, unlike freezing on a fully rooted device, freezing here doesn't remove the apps' market links, and doesnt remove them from the apps list in settings. It DOES remove them from the app drawer and keep them from running, which is what matters
I just tried to freeze apps with "Bloat Freezer Free" and most of the apps came back after a reboot. Is everyone else using Titanium? Does it "freeze" apps differently?
Thanks!
I've only ever used Titanium to freeze apps but you need the pro version. WELL worth the money, this app has proven very useful.
Added almost 20 more apps...
I need to have temp root going to make this happen, right?
I'm on a Mac. Loving the rezound so far even without root .
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA App
yep must have temp root and using Titanium or something equivalent
I'm moving this to the App section since it is more related to that section.
Thanks for this list, but have you tried removing any, if possible?
Bluetooth busted?
Trying to troubleshoot it but I froze most of the apps from your first list but noticed this afternoon I could not get my Bluetooth to turn on. Could be a coincidence but any chance freezing one of those apps could cause that?
trying to get mine to temp root it self would cause BT to quit working
reboot would fix it most of the time
I don't think any of the apps I listed would cause BT to stop working. I did try to remove an app once and it crashed Titanium. I figure without S-OFF that's not going to be happening any time soon, since we can't get the /system/ folder mounted in R/W.
Thanks for this. I loaded my own task manager and I couldn't believe all the junk that autostarts on boot. This cut down on that signficantly!
Now I just can't wait for a debloated ROM to come out.

You can use App Quarantine:

Free and does the same thing -- I've used it on my Rezound (I have Titanium Backup as well, but this has a lighter footprint and our temp root is finicky).

Any success uninstalling or freezing stock bloat?

If it matters, mine is a P509 - my question is whether any of you have found, short of custom ROM, a way to remove bloat apps, or freeze them effectively, given a stock LG ROM? I run kernel 2.6.32.9 and it is very stable. just wanting to free up cycles and memory
the reason I can't get along with custom ROM is the lack of wifi calling [that is, the way it is supposed to work, via T-mo]
Will Titanium Pro do this? any nasty side effects?
root - delete the apps.
TiBackup - freeze or delete.
All of these work. I just test-searched this subforum for remove bloatware and was rewarded with an abundance of information. This also contains info on the likeliest followup question, "what apps can I remove?".
FWIW, I find greatest stability and battery life on a sanitized stock ROM but run CM7 on principle. I use Google Voice + Groove IP for my wifi calling needs. Works fine and doesn't eat TMO voice mins.
I just go to system/app and delete the apps or "bloatware" that you dont need, titanium backup does the same but you have the option to freeze. If you want to get rid of it quick and easy just go to system/app and delete the app you want gone. Be careful what you delete, stay away from system apps that your phone will need. I would make a backup first before you start deleting just to be safe hope this helps
you are my man! i use the same plan with T-mo - do everything I can on wifi, keep data turned off 90% of the time, send pics via GoSMS Pro...
Thank you both, fratermus and 'droid311 for the help.
If you don't mind let me list a few that I ASSUME I can safely remove - if you see something dangerous pls let me know
- Drivesmart
- Telenav
- thinkfree office
- visual voicemail
- Voice Search
- web2go home
- Pacman demo [good grief]
- places
- latitude
- fm radio [never worked]
- dinerdash
- doodle
ok fire away
btw - re: titanium does the freeware version do the trick or the upgrade?
I'll have a look at system/root - not an expert su by any means

OK, friends I got it rolling now. handful of that stuff uninstalled.
could I bug you for just a couple of specifics?
- Keyboards: I have been running the Gingerbread keybd for awhile and like it well enough - the handset still has he original keyboard installed. is it safe to uninstall/remove that or is it involved with the core ROM?
- Similarly, I seem to have three Messaging things stacked: there is the original which I guess was on the handset from the edge: there is an Update to the stock Messaging app, then there is GoSMS Pro which is what I actually use. Is it safe to uninstall the other/stock messaging apps?
- Maps [latitude] is a pig - it loads three modules at powerup and I never even use it [my eyes and that screen with ddetailed maps,, no worky well]. safe to remove? answer seems to be yes.
that's all. I am a happy camper
Are you running cm7?
-You would probaly get a foreclose if you delete it, I would go into play store (android market) and find the keyboard you want, download it and push it to system/app then delete the old gingerbread key board.
-I wouldnt move/delete the stock messaging apps because I think (not positive) but gosms pro would need your stock messaging app to run off of.
-yes maps can be safe to remove
-Also reading your list of your bloat ware, they all can be deleted safely with no harm
thank you so much!
no, i'm running 2.2 LG rom and it is so stable I am ok to stay here, especially because WIFI calling works like butter... excellent.
uninstalled maps, finally - nothing else would stop it from loading up. no harm done, as you indicated.
all this has managed to free up about 35% of the meager ROM.
I guess this is about as good as it gets if one retains wifi calling, gmail/voice, and basic decent apps like a good media player, maps [that is, 3rd party], sms/mms, memos, calendar, reminders, notifier[missed message flasher the only one I have found that actually works]
No problem man, make sure you always backup

[Q] do multiple launchers slow phone down?

I have upgraded to the stock jelly bean and I do really like it. However, I love switching out launchers and keyboards. Now my note has slowed down when unlocking and switching apps. Is this because of the several launchers? Or is it jelly bean? Help!
in advance, thanks
Rachael
I don't think launchers hog resources and slow the device down. Only one should be running at a time. You can check in your stats to see if more than one is. Under settings - applications swipe right to see what's running.
However launcher add-ons can. I noticed go launcher has TONS of cool additions and themes but seemed to kill my battery.
Are you rooted? You can always freeze the stuff your not currently using, and unfreeze when you want it. Also the stock update has a LOT of unwanted apps. Freezing and removing that crap can increase performance.
Thanks for the advice. I have rooted my device and tried to freeze several apps. I am not sure which ones I can freeze. Any advice?

You can always "feeze" an app, then use your phone for a day or 2 to see if anything doesn't work properly and unfreeze it to fix. Stay away from freezing system settings. There is very few you can get away with freezing. Some of the apps I froze you may or may not want to depending on what you do with your phone. Like for example I don't use allshare or quickpic but you might. I'll try to write down as many as I can remember and see are removed thru titanium backup. But I might of uninstalled some and cant remember.
I'll add to the list as I remember or freeze more or if someone add's in future posts.

Debloating CM10.1 ROM

guys did anyone remove any of these apps and knows that they are safe to remove 100%. I am on an unofficial build of cm10.1 rom?
Cell Broadcasts
com.android.backuconfirm
com.android.sharedstoragebackup
com.google.android.voicesearch
com.android.smspush
Google Backup Transport
Google Partner Setup
Nfc Service
Service Mode 1.0
Im debloating my rom further just want to see if its safe to remove these (no fc or any other problems) (uninstall via titanium backup pro), Im not really sure what they are or what they do but they keep running in background. Thanks
I remove NFC service and voice search (amongst others), Iirc, I used to remove backup transport and partner set up with no probs on cm7, not tried the latter on 10.

so now on cm10.1 you only remove nfc service and voice search?
btw removing nfc service will make nfc not work completely?
Do u know what each of these removal will affect exactly? what will not work? thanks
Is there somewhere a list where I can read all these stuff? I tried searching, found some lists but no explanation at all.
I remove between 25 and 30 system apks depending which rom I flash. I can't remember them without seeing them.
Check out slim, there's quite a few less.

Do you remove the system app:
com.android.smspush
Im not sure if its an actual visible application, I just see it in my task manager as always consuming about 12Mb ram
I like to freeze apps (not removing them, so that if anything goes wrong i can just unfreeze them)
-com.android.cellbroadcastreceiver (cell broadcasts)
-com.google.android.inputmethod.dictionarypack (dictionary provider) : i never use the dictionary, so i don't need it running 20mbs in the background!
-com.android.providers.userdictionary:
-com.android.email & com.android.exchange (i use gmail so i don't need stock email services)
-com.google.android.backup (backup transport): this app runs like 50mb in the background, ever since i am on custom roms i freeze it without any problems
-com.google.android.partnersetup
-google search
-launcher (i use novalauncher instead)
-picasa uploader
-search applications provider: i dont know its use but i freeze it without any problems
-sim toolkit
-com.android.talk (talk) : i dont use it, i dont need it running in the backgroun
-com.android.voicedialer
-com.google.android.syncadapters.bookmarks (bookmarks sync): i think it syncs the bookmarks in the stock browser, but i use chrome. so dont need it.
these are pretty much the processes that i freeze on every custom rom that i use (either cm10.1 or sammy based).
Some of the services are essential to some people (like talk or dictionary), so freezing them is up to personal preference.
I also use the greenify app to hibernate processes such as maps or youtube that constantly run in the background with no reason, even when you dont use them.
Freezing these apps saves me about 200mb of ram. So multitasking is a bit easier on this ram-troubled device.

com.android.smspush: i don't know what it does, but reading its name i think it has something to do with receiving sms (push, as in push notification and sms). I am not sure about that, and i haven't tried freezing to so i cant tell you for sure.
network location: it is the service that runs in order that apps can find your location using the network. for example when you check in on facebook. It finds your approximate location without gps. If you turn gps on, then you get an accurate location. Havent frozen it as i use apps with location services (such as yellow pages apps, airport apps and stuff that need to know my location).
google one time init: don't know what it does, i've frozen it (didn't see it before, so i forgot to mention it in the previous post)
google acount manager: very important. it handles your username and password to log in in google services such as the play store, the contacts sync etc. if you freeze it you can't open the play store app (for example).
package access helper: i am not sure about it. I've searched a lot on google but didn't find a definitive answer. I've read that it has to do with installing/uninstalling apps. I've tried once to freeze it but i got some force closes. So, leave it intact.

Apps That Are Safe to Remove From 4.4.2 [NC2]

Here is a list of apps that I have removed from the 4.4.2 (NC2) build using Titanium Backup and Root Explorer. There are more apps that can be removed but these are the ones I've deleted so far. Please keep in mind that you use your phone differently than I do so some of these may interfere with your daily use if frozen/removed. I have completely removed them but the best thing to do is to freeze them for a while in Titanium Backup or rename them with a .bak extension in Root Explorer to be sure that they aren't going to cause any issues.
Feel free to post any additional apps that you have removed and I'll add them to the list.

I usually remove/freeze all that I can with Titanium Backup first then I use Root Explorer for the ones that I can't find in TiBu.
Did you freeze them or did you actually remove the apk? Only reason I ask is some of those might fall under the category of do not remove but you can freeze so we should probably clarify

Thanks for putting this together. I usually freeze/delete all the bloat I can. I hardly ever use the Samsung apps anyways.
Wanted to drop a thanks as well. I LOVE ASOP and I hate bloat that I never use. I'm seeing some of my best battery life on 4.4.2 with all of the above removed.
I plan on removing some of these items from the system/apps folder of the de odex version before flashing to 4.4.2. I assume there shouldn't be any issues as I have done this with several other roms in the past?

Just chiming in I did remove a lot of the mention apps from the system/apps directory of nc2 rom floating around before flashing from 4.3 and it works perfectly fine. thanks again for the list!
I removed a lot (but not all) of apps from this list using Titanium Backup. I noticed a few things that broke after doing so and was wondering if anyone knew which missing apps might be the culprit?
1: Automatic screen rotation seems be broken for all apps.
2: I have Battery Widget Reborn installed and the quick settings in the notification shade don't work anymore.
Here is a link to my list.

Hey thanks! I'll compare the 2 lists and try restoring the ones that aren't on your list.
EDIT: Restoring "Easy Settings" in the Titanium gave me back the ability to use use my Battery Widget Reborn quick controls again. Strangely, after rebooting, this program name doesn't appear in Titanium anymore.
Also, I have no idea what is causing my rotation to not work, and no one else is reporting this, so I don't know. I found 2 apps that I removed in Titanium by mistake because I don't any backup for them: media and imsqmisocket.
I may just hard reset at this point.
So I've been trying to track down the app that is causing rotation to break but I can't figure it out. I started fresh and each day I've been deleting around 15 apps twice a day until they have all been removed. Today I removed the last 12 apps from the list and rotation is still working so far.

Thanks for the reply. It helped me to know that I wasn't the only one having this problem. I found the solution today after some searching:

You might want to update your list as I don't think all of these are "safe to remove."
