Thought I deleted this post. Guess not...
Your releasing something either you haven't tested or as you said making your nook gay? Is all you did was remove apps?

-- delete.
Lets hope this doesn't turn into a flame war like the last new rom... Great work but I'm going to stay will official CM just to get the latest stuff first.

How exactly is your nook being "gay"?
Unless your nook is homosexual another term may be more appropriate. Maybe you can say it's being a <edited before I get banned>.
Just so you know, removing apps can limit what the market will show.
Have you made changes besides removing apk's?
Thanks for making a ROM!

After I installed GAPPS, and downloaded Pulse, the Market FC's every 3 seconds. I think it was probably an installation error but since I deleted my boot partition on accident, It might be a while until I can look into it.

Ya, I understand. I saw the last one and what a big flame war it was, over being told that someone couldnt use someone elses work.
boot looped
This on boot looped for me. I like the removed apps and I''ll try it again after the next update.
Yes I wiped and install the ROM twice to make sure.
But I like the idea so keep it up.

Alright, It does that for me every once in a while but it goes away after a force restart with the power button. I will just have to go step by step again and see what app is causing it. Thanks for letting me know!
But seeing as I have no boot partition, it might be next week or so until it comes out. :/
Aw, I know someone who'd love a homosexual tablet.
No disrespect, but maybe you'd like to actually know how Android works before trying to (rick)roll your own ROM? What you're offering here is easily achieved without a custom ROM, even on an already-installed tablet, so other than the fame, fortune, and tons of women, I'm not quite sure what you're on about here.
Sucks about the boot partition.

So... this is CM7 with some apps removed and a different file manager?
I agree....however......installing CM7 on the nook is so darn easy that many people who have limited computer skills are getting in on this game. Lots of folks who could not modify the CM7 install might want something like this. I am not sure what that this particular 'custom' ROM has to offer....yet. Who knows, maybe he will eventually get a modified install worth the trouble. I have never tried it myself, but the 'phiremod' modification has its fans...it is basically the same as this but obviously much more refined and with its own theme.
Why do people flame someone who creates a new rom on this forum? Look what happened to the last rom you guys flamed. He took it down!
If you don't like what he is doing then DON'T DOWNLOAD IT! It's that easy.
Maybe this is his first attempt at a rom. For all you know he could be the next cyanogen or koush. If you flame him enough he will just say screw it and leave.
Jesus christ people just leave him alone!

Because it's a low-effort ROM. Seriously, all he did was pull a few APKs out of the ROM and didn't even test the effects of the missing APKs.
We shouldn't encourage low-effort posting like this. If someone comes out with a good ROM, people will respect that, but this isn't even a ROM. It's CM7 with APKs ripped out of it
From the OP:
Onhold as I accidently deleted my Boot Partition and am currently working on getting it fixed.

Would you really trust someone who has no idea what they are doing and "accidentally" deleted their boot partition?.

I have accidentally formatted my SD card before. Mistakes happen. I would like to get a CM without unusable apps on a nook. There is more to it though than just removing the apk. Market stuff, system... etc.
I also applaud the goal you are trying to reach. i have been curious for months now in seeing how much faster an odexed rom for the nook could be.(if it's possible) or at least apk optimized with unnecessary images and language packs taken out.Hopefully one day a dev can try and cook one up. Don't let anyone discourage you.
On gb... I can access both dialer and contacts simply with the Phone apk. Now I'm forced to use them separately ?
This is extremely annoying.

Did this merit a whole you thread?
If you don't like both seperated, get a third party phone application like Dialer One.

Yes this merit a whole me thread.
Surely though, if you really wanted you could take the phone.apk from GB and just replace it on ICS? It performs the exact same actions so should just work. Maybe it wont, but im sure someone will correct me anyway if thats wrong

Don't think it'll work, different codebase... But you know, why not try. Worst that'll happen is the phone will blow up and kill innocent people around you!
Any developer able to mod the phone.apk to have the contacts tab ?
I feel your pain... I really really hate the separation of phone and contacts, it's not at all user friendly.
and while we're at it, I also hate the new tile look of the favourites. big waste of space, and looks especially ugly when contacts do not have a picture assigned..
Anyone want to try to extract phone.apk and/or dialer.apk from AOSP ICS and see how it works?
Yes I'm very curious about that i wonder if it can be pulled from a cm9 or aokp rom for gnexus

guys i'm on gb 2.3.5 and I'll tell you what; there's no way i'm upgrading (or should that be downgrading) to ics for gs2. from what I've read it's 250 megs or so and all you get is app incompatibility (for the while) anyway and battery life is a complaint too. i'm not budging!!

hi guys, I am searching for a completely stock rom but with absolutely no boat ware, does this exist? thanks you
No, because it wouldn't be completely stock would it?
You can check the sticky in themes and apps about apps that are safe to remove

you can use any stock rom there are so many debloat scripts lying around in this forum..
What people regard as bloat varies hugely, so I suggest reading up on what is safe to remove, then use titanium to initially freeze a few at a time, while you gain an understanding of what each .apk does, you can then easily restore if you encounter problems or uninstall when you decide for definite you don't want a certain function.
This approach will give you much better insight into the system whilst giving you valuable knowledge of it also.
Go slow, learn well = no brick
Android Development Stock debloated rom or one that uses Aroma is your starting point .
jje
thank you all for the great advice, much appreciated
Anyone have a list or an idea of what I can remove in regards to stock apps? I've seen a list like this for other phones and I know this phone is new but I'm sure there's power users out there that have removed tons. And if so, is titanium backup the best way to remove them?

Titanium Backup is your best choice, freeze is recommended.
Yea it took me a minute to find and I knew it was there.

Much appreciated. Yeah froze a ton of stuff. I subscribed to your thread so if I come across anything acting weird after being frozen/removed I'll post it there.

I would appreciate it, I'm running JellyBomb Domination ROM now and having a hard time adding new content, there are apps listed that may be essential and unlisted apps that may be bloat...
What I have been doing is trying to add explanations and links to each apps functions to make it easier for users to know exactly what it is they're freezing/removing.
I have a pretty good understanding of what does what. Unfortunately no idea what noq is haha.

Is it possible to pull the keyboard apk from Samsung galaxy s5 and install it in the HTC m8? My phone is rooted. I just love everything about the gs5 keyboard.
If it is possible can someone please post it? Thanks

I'm no developer so I don't know for sure, but I'm guessing there is not, all that Samsung stuff usually relies pretty heavily on the TouchWiz framework, and it's been my experience that it's very difficult getting things running right.
Anyone else?

Go to the S5 international forum and download a stock rom. Unzip and navigate to system/app or it may just be in the app folder. Throw it on your phone and try it yourself.

Being pissy? Hell, I gave you the direct answer to the question you asked. I don't know if it would work or not, I was just trying to be helpful. Before you go slamming somebody why don't you read their post history, I don't troll people who ask questions, I try to help or point them in the right direction. I'm sure there are rules for decor for the board but **** the both of you. Next time search the entire forum and figure it out for yourself, douche.

like I said.... pissy. if you don't intend to be one.. you need to change your tone...
Asking me to try something obvious is NOT really being "helpful". I can figure that myself without putting up a post! But I don't know what the effects would be (boot loop?, bricked phone?)... and I don't intend to find out the hard way.. I'm looking to see if someone has already tried it and know if works directly, or with certain tweaks... NOT looking for someone to tell me "hey why don't YOU try and find out".
So yes.. if you don't have anything constructive to offer..save yourself the trouble of posting nonsensical "advice".

You're hilarious. So you just want people to spoon feed you the answer and heaven forbid you try solving the problem yourself. I guess this is your personal help desk seeing how you don't want to try to help yourself and maybe learn something along the way. See how far that gets you around here. Bootloop? bricked phone? from installing a third party keyboard? And I'm nonsensical? The funny thing is I was trying to help you out since I tried the exact "non-sensical" advice to install the aosp mail, sms, and calendar apps from another rom. Keep telling people their being pissy when they respond to your questions hot shot, you'll be real popular. No need to reply either, you've made it clear that anything other than a tried and true, step by step guide, with all assurances of safety is unacceptable, and unfortunately I don't have baby's bottle.

This is a Q&A forum. People are allowed to post their questions without having to worry about people like you who say "this is no damn help desk" so if you feel that way about people who ask questions no matter how silly they might appear to you, then DON'T BOTHER REPLYING! I don't need a baby bottle. You seemed pissy and condescending with your replies. There are several ways you could have suggested it in a better way and I would have even followed your advice. But your tone seemed like you were asking me to do something that was bound to fail.
So no. The problem is with you. Anyways... Moving on.
I did do my research about this. Don't assume that I'm posting without doing my homework.
There is only one posting somewhere where a guy pulled the gs5 keyboard apk and made it into a flashable zip for note. And I did try that and it messed up my phone.
So yes. I know why I'm taking about.
Again. If you are meaning to help then be nicer with your tone.
Thanks for ruining my thread!

I did love the S5 keyboard too. and I realize this isn't an answer to your question, but the SwiftKey Beta comes pretty darn close to satisfying what you might be missing. you should check it out.

WTF bro? All I said was for him not to do what you said as it would be a complete waste of his time because it will not work...Take a flipp'n chill pill already.
Guys, please.. This isn't youtube. Lets try to be constructive instead of destructive. With that being said, back to the topic at hand...As someone that has worked extensively with samsung devices, i'm 99% sure it won't work as a previous commentor said, most if not all samsung specific apps require TW to run them. My guess is to start playing around with some of the diff key boards apps in the market . I'm sure if the S5 keyboard hasn't been replicated yet, it soon will be.
If you are to attempt to pull the apk from the stock S5 rom or if you happen to find it online, don't worry about trying it out. It'll either work or it won't
