In system app file, there seems to be lots of junk there. But I don't know which ones are safe to be deleted? Need professional advise.

I know when you delete an app using root explorer or something of the like it only deletes the apk and leaves some stuff behind...I've also read how to remove the leftovers using adb but don't always have time for that...does anyone know of an app that will scan through your phone and delete these files? Or an app that will list all the files associated with an apk?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Are you rooted? If not get rooted and flash a new rom like CM7/MIUI. If your already rooted you can flash a new rom or use an app like Titanium Backup to hide the apps.
Well i would actually like to remove them. And yes im rooted. On tsm res. right now and it has a few apps i would like to get rid of

Freeze them tibu
Then you can remove any app you want with Titanium Backup, or Terminal Emulator.
I use root uninstall free will let u remove any app on phone

That root unistaller was probably the best apl i have used. Wish they would automatically add that into builds

Root Explorer is another good one.
So I downloaded well side loaded I guess I downloaded an app from my sd card but now I want to remove it however the option is not there. When I go to settings and manage applications the un install button is not there

did it install as a system app? Strange. Could always use tibu to convert to a user app(if it is a system app) or just clear data and uninstall from tibu itself.

This app is a security application is it not? There are 2 options for install, both an apk file as well as a flashable zip. Did you install the apk or flash the zip. As well did the developer of the app give special instructions on uninstalling? If the app is for locating a lost phone there may be a trick to the uninstall process.
Titanium backup should allow the removal if your phone is rooted.

For me, I use avast and they have a removal tool built into the app for the anti theft portion. After that's removed you can uninstall the antivirus portion like any other apk. I would definitely check within the app first to see if there's a removal tool.

Ah yes thank you for reminding me. Usually there is ab option in the app that let's you un install it normally but since I was having problems the Dev Gave me a custom apk to run (and now another one which is why I had to uninstall) and I did move it as a system app that's why. I was successfully able to remove through titanium backup. Idk why I didn't think of it before. Thanks guys! Btw I highly recommend this app for security purposes.

If its not letting you install them again you may have to sbf to get them back. Also, I'm curious as to why you are posting in the dx2 section if you have an xpert.
There is no xpert section

not that I've seen
how did you backup, titanium?
did you try, restore without data?
on sdcard/titanium
should be a apk.gz file for missing app
unzip gz move apk to system apks
fix permissions, reboot to recovery, wipe cache, reboot
might work may not
you should always make a nandroid right after rooting, if you did use that

Hi Guys....
I have rooted my GT-19300T Australian version of S3 and want to delete the bloat wares to extend the battery drainages and hope to get more ram memories.
Can anyone guide me as to how to delete the bloat wares and the list of bloat wares that can be safely removed please??
Thanks in advance
use titanium to first freeze the apps, then, if there are no ill effects, remove them.

Hi!
As what i know, to completely uninstall a stock application.. you have to be rooted. I use SystemAppRemover

Have to be rooted to remove system apps. Alternatively may just disable them in settings > application manager without root.

You should be able to remove system apps using titanium backup or Rom toolbox. But as previous poster said its better to freeze them first using either of the above applications.

I use this app to delete the bloatware. It costs $1 well worth it.
