Salve
here my list of all Apps the are nessesary on the device i think (some of them you can kick it out, but not save.. maybe the one or other app im killed is also nessary, but its not come to a event since i kill the apps, that will need one of the killed apps)
sysapps killing is always on your own risk: im garantied for nothing. And, if anybody now ask me how to delete Sysapps... if you dont know what is nessesery that you can delete sysapps, its better not to try.. and then, if you found out (how to grand root access), ten you know how you can repair the system if you killed to hard)
the list of installed sysapps on my xperia S
framework-res.apk
Browser.apk (can be replaced or kickoutet if you dont like internet)
Calendar.apk (its not nessesery needet, can be replaced)
Certinstaller.apk
DefaultContainerservice.apk (maybe can deletet, i belive has someting to do with Companion and stuff i dont need)
KeyChain.apk
MusicFX.apk (can be killed if you dont need to tweak the sound your own way)

ApplicationsProvider.apk
Calendarprover.apk
ContactsProvider.apk
DownloadProvider.apk
DrmProvider.apk
Settingsprovider.apk
SEMC-TelephonyProvider.apk
Settings.apk
Soundrecorder.apk
Stk.apk (not realy nessesary, but if you have to resset dataoptions from your provider, its good to have )
SystemUi.apk
MarketUpdater.apk (think its not realy nessesary anymore, but im not shure)
GoogleBackuptransport.apk (can be deletet i think, but maybee one oft the Gapps will have it at one time, so better to stay)
Googleserviceframework.apk
Googleaccountmanager.apk
Networklocation.apk
OneTimeinitializer.apk (like the name says, one time, can theoreticly deletet after first settin up Google account and stuff, but maybe you make a Factoryresset in the future, so good to have )
GooglePartnersettup.apk (the same like onetime init... just used one time, but with a reset )
GoogleContactSyncAdapter.apk (can be deletet, but hey, you got a Googleaccount, so USE IT)
bootinfo.apk (???)
semcCameraUI.apk (if you dont use the Cam, why you buy a Device with a 12 Megapixelcam?
Contactsimport.apk (not shure, but can be that this app is just for SEMC contacts and not for Googlecontacts)
fast-dormacy-incall.apk
Servicemenu.apk
Phonebook.apl
fast-dormacy-wakeup.apk
AudioEffectservice.apk
CameraExtendenpermissions.apk
DevaultCapabilitys.apk (if you delete this app, you got no more MTP... much luck to connect your device with USB to copy files again )
Conversations.apk
Costumicedappinstaller.apk (dont know the different to the normal app isntaller, because there is no overlay form SEMC to the installer... )
Costumicedsettings.apk
DrmDialogs,apk
GenericAppinstaller.apk
XperiaHome.apk (can be replaced, but if you replace you should not do a factoryreset
SemcIllumination.apk (its the Lightbar )
infiniteview.apk (without, you can see in your contacts more than the Name and the phone Number from your Contacts, its absolutly needet, also for Walkman if you use Walkman)
Initial-boot-setup.apk
LocalContacts.apk (think if you safe all your contacts to Google its not realy nessesary)
UxpNxtLockscreen.apk (its just the Sonyoverlay to the Lockscreen, if you delete this a, you got pure ICS Lockscreen with a little buggy Walkmansettings)
SemcClock.apk
PMScanner.apk
PowerSavesmodul.apk
SemcSettings.apk
SEMCSettupWizzard.apk (if you dont like to configure APNs, WAP Proxys and stuff, its better not to delete for a future Factory Reset )
ShutdownAnimation.apk (i think i try to kick it out )
SemcSimDetection.apk
Smartcardservice.apk
SemSnpVideoplayer.apk (can be kicked out, but real, its a smartphone, not a Nokia 3210 )
Soundenhanchement.apk
Soundpicker.apk
SwiqiMasterreset.apk (i deletet it out at last, but then inviniteview is force close... better to stay on device... has someting to do with the Bravia Enginge, dont ask me what)
TetheringentitlementCheck.apk
ThemeManger.apk (if you had your theme chosed and kicked all others out, you can theoreticly also kick the Manger, but for future Factoryreset, ya know )
usbotg.apk
WAPcustomisation.apk
SemcWarrantytime.apk
HomeAdd.apk (it comes a time to kick that out and see if the pure ICS Widgetpicker is just overlayed or deletet for real, hop the first )
PMservicesTrigger.apk
Piccotts.apk (if you need Google maps, its better not to delete )
Phonesky.apk
if you delete Gmail ore Maps or one of the other Gapps, its not so a big deal if the Playstore is not deletet, you can download them
The Keyboard i have replacet, its clear that you need recent ONE Keybord on your device Walkman.apk and wats adet to it i have replaced with the Stock Android Player - also with the stockplayer you got access to the Semc Equlicer. its clear, if you need Bluetooth and NFC Tags, dont delete the apps of them
from the Designs, as i sayd before, first choose one (or more if you want) and then delete the other)
best for uninstall take the app "Root uninstall" from Play Store, because you can deletet in Batchmode and the App delete not just the apk, it delete also the odex files.
after Deleting apps, wipe your dalvik and all the cache partition and reboot the device

thanks, i presume this is ok for .54 on an Xperia U also?
will this remove the relevant services? it's running services that's bothering me, only 512MB RAM phone is starting to lag quite bad!
not sure if it's better to freeze/delete the apks or use some startup manager to disable things on boot.

Odp: [TIP-SOLA] - System Apps safe to remove.
What is the point of removing bloatware? I mean, of course you save up rom memory, but does it really free up ram and prevent phone from lagging? For example if I don't use Timescape, live wallpaper and Japanese keyboard they don't use RAM right?

Use Titanium Backup (for rooted devices)
Hi all,
Lot's and lot's asking about lack of ram in their phones, lagging in ICS ROM and so on!
well why not removing stock unwanted apps?
well I had a list of programs to delete unwanted stock apps and decide to write a program to do it for you!
It will get backup of your phone so you will be able to restore it after you delete them,
Requirements: ROOT! you should have rooted your phone
Here's the link http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?i7gloe6wezdaizd
Just follow the instructions,
Good luck

Nice work!
Extract the files, run the exe file, connect the phone to computer with usb debugging on and select the options in command prompt.
And one thing, after the reboot, I checked system/app, and found that some of the apk files were not removed. This has to do with the naming of apk filenames, some of which have capital letters in between. For example, SemcPowerSaver.apk and SemcPowersaver.apk...

but it's good to know that the list helped you
Hello,
I need some assistance please.
Can you guys create a list with bloatware apps from an LG optimus L7 that we can safely freeze/uninstall/remove them?
Thank you.
p.s.: i don`t know what apps are considered as bloatware thats why i`m asking for a list of applications.
here's some app that safe to remove
Finance.apk
Gmail.apk
GMS_Maps.apk
GoogleTTS.apk
LGEmail.apk
LGExchange.apk
News.apk
StreamingPlayer.apk
Street.apk
VideoPlayer.apk
VoiceSearch.apk
WeatherWidget.apk
YouTube.apk
I really like the stock ROM and wanted to keep it, but decided to removed the bloatware. I got root with g2_security, remounted rw and proceeded to disabled all apk and enable them on a case by case basis. Here is the result, which you can use for the purpose of making your own minimalist ROM:
LGHome is required (home screen) as well as LGHome_Theme_Optimus
LGSystemUI, LGLiveWallpapersPicker, SystemUI_Provider and LGTangibleIO provide the user interface base
LGLockScreen and LGLockScreenSettings are self explanatory
LGIME + LGIME_THEME* provide the on screen keyboard
FusedLocation is required by LGHome, otherwise it will bootloop
LGSettings and LGSettingsProvider are essential as well
LGSystemServer manages a number of hardware devices (LEDs...)
SetupWizard has to run at least once iirc, otherwise the Home button does not work (but afterwards can be disabled)
DefaultContainerService is required for the installation of APKs
Note: to prevent the default APKs (LGLW_PolarBear, ...) from being installed, move them out of /system/apps/bootup. Typically I use /system/app/disabled to stored disabled APKs.
Next, the following components can be enabled depending on what you need:
LGPhone, LGTelephonyProvider, LGContacts, LGContactsProvider and LGMessage (most people will want this)
HiddenMenu for debugging infomation (use 3845#*802#)
GMS_Maps, plus com.qualcomm.location (required for GPS)
LGBluetooth4 is required to connect to Bluetooth devices
LGAlarmClock, LGClockWidget, LGBrowser, LGCalculator, LGCalendar, LGCalendarProvider and LGCameraApp are self explanatory
LGDownloadProvider and LGDownloadProviderUi is used by browser and other apps
LGEmail is useful to get an Exchange account (like, live.com) and get the calendar working if you don't enable gapps
LGFileManager, LGFlashlightWidget, LGFmRadio, LGGallery, LGMusic, LGMusicWidget and YouTube can be useful too
LGVideos, LGVoiceRecorder, LGWeather and LGWeatherTheme: ditto
MediaProvider is required for LGFileManager and possibly others too
UserDictionaryProvider for custom dictionaries
I am however using an older Maps, version 6, extracted from a nexus factory image. In particular is allows downloading much larger off-line maps.
Finally let's mention the following APKs that I'm not sure are completely necessary, but I've included them since they are part of the CyanogenMod sources:
HTMLViewer
InputDevices
KeyChain
SharedStorageBackup
VpnDialogs
After disabled useless APKs, I recommend doing a data/cache wipe from CWM, to get into a new clean state. It's worth noting I don't enable the Google Apps, since I manually install APKs that I download from another phone. This works quite well, although I had for example to patch Deezer's dex code to remove a dependency on GSF. In addition, the Phone application FC when a bluetooth headset is connected which is a bit annoying. So it's probably easier to keep the Google Apps enabled. For the record, I have disabled the following apps:
Code:
AAT.apk LGClockWidget.apk LGVideoEditor.apk
ApplicationsProvider.apk LGConnectionWizard.apk LGVideoManual.apk
BackupRestoreConfirmation.apk LGDefaultAccount.apk LGVuTalk.apk

thanks for this great list!
Now we could have a look inside the lib files
Is there a list for example what doubletabwakeup.apk makes?
Do we realy need it to wake up the device with double finger tab?
Thanks

Hi,
I can wake up or sleep with double tap without this apk.
I'd like to make a list eventually, but it's time consuming. But why not
Thanks for your reply..
A list would realy help a lot of people, how didnt know the services and apps from lg.
But for what is this app`?

I agree. As a first step you can always have a look at the manifest, run strings on the .odex and also examine the APK's resources (strings, layouts).
This usually provides enough information without resorting ti disassembly/decompiling, which is prohibited by LG's Terms of Use.
Nice inofrmation OP.
But this still does not belong to Android Development.

Im assuming your rooted...?download Titanium Backup from the market and use that to delete the bloatware. Just be very carefull while deleting. If your unsure abt an app you want to delete, use the freeze option instead of deleting it. Freezing disables the app but doesnt permanently remove it. If you freeze an app amd your phone becomes unstable or you start getting a bunch of force closes you can always go back and unfreeze the app in question. There is no coming back from delting said app unless you reflash the rom. Sorry,that may have been over explaining things.

I agree, one should be very careful. When doing the tests over adb, I made sure not to reboot the phone, instead I would kill system_server to test what change disabling/reenabling an apk would do (I guess at worst I would have had to restore the backup from CWM). Nonetheless the list of APK that I provided in the first post provide a working phone, albeit in a minimalist state. I'm not going to provide a script though, it seems too risky to blindly apply any given script - instead I prefer providing an explanation for each apk so that people can avoid disabling crucial system parts.
Sorry, posted in the wrong topic

I really like the stock ROM and wanted to keep it, but decided to removed the bloatware. I got root with g2_security, remounted rw and proceeded to disabled all apk and enable them on a case by case basis. Here is the result, which you can use for the purpose of making your own minimalist ROM:
LGHome is required (home screen) as well as LGHome_Theme_Optimus
LGSystemUI, LGLiveWallpapersPicker, SystemUI_Provider and LGTangibleIO provide the user interface base
LGLockScreen and LGLockScreenSettings are self explanatory
LGIME + LGIME_THEME* provide the on screen keyboard
FusedLocation is required by LGHome, otherwise it will bootloop
LGSettings and LGSettingsProvider are essential as well
LGSystemServer manages a number of hardware devices (LEDs...)
SetupWizard has to run at least once iirc, otherwise the Home button does not work (but afterwards can be disabled)
DefaultContainerService is required for the installation of APKs
Note: to prevent the default APKs (LGLW_PolarBear, ...) from being installed, move them out of /system/apps/bootup. Typically I use /system/app/disabled to stored disabled APKs.
Next, the following components can be enabled depending on what you need:
LGPhone, LGTelephonyProvider, LGContacts, LGContactsProvider and LGMessage (most people will want this)
HiddenMenu for debugging infomation (use 3845#*802#)
GMS_Maps, plus com.qualcomm.location (required for GPS)
LGBluetooth4 is required to connect to Bluetooth devices
LGAlarmClock, LGClockWidget, LGBrowser, LGCalculator, LGCalendar, LGCalendarProvider and LGCameraApp are self explanatory
LGDownloadProvider and LGDownloadProviderUi is used by browser and other apps
LGEmail is useful to get an Exchange account (like, live.com) and get the calendar working if you don't enable gapps
LGFileManager, LGFlashlightWidget, LGFmRadio, LGGallery, LGMusic, LGMusicWidget and YouTube can be useful too
LGVideos, LGVoiceRecorder, LGWeather and LGWeatherTheme: ditto
MediaProvider is required for LGFileManager and possibly others too
UserDictionaryProvider for custom dictionaries
I am however using an older Maps, version 6, extracted from a nexus factory image. In particular is allows downloading much larger off-line maps.
Finally let's mention the following APKs that I'm not sure are completely necessary, but I've included them since they are part of the CyanogenMod sources:
HTMLViewer
InputDevices
KeyChain
SharedStorageBackup
VpnDialogs
After disabled useless APKs, I recommend doing a data/cache wipe from CWM, to get into a new clean state. It's worth noting I don't enable the Google Apps, since I manually install APKs that I download from another phone. This works quite well, although I had for example to patch Deezer's dex code to remove a dependency on GSF. In addition, the Phone application FC when a bluetooth headset is connected which is a bit annoying. So it's probably easier to keep the Google Apps enabled. For the record, I have disabled the following apps:

No problem. I wish I could give you LGBluetooth4 but it's been many years since I no longer have this phone.
