Well, what should be useless is:
Widget: ProTips
Game: Nova HD
Game: Teeter
App: LogMeIn
App: Lookout
App: Tmobile TV (MobiTV or whatever they call it)
App: Qik Tmobile Video Chat (get Tang or Fring instead)
App: Slacker Radio (meh...)
App: Telenav (trialware, use Google Nav instead or buy a real GPS)
App: TMobile Mobile Backup (never use it)
App: Tmobile "AppPack" (You can get the same junk by clicking on TMobile in the Market)
App: Tmobile "SelfHelp" (The annoying app that hijacks your calls to 611 or the 877 # from your phone)
App: TMobile MyAccount / MyDevice
Although this is for Tmobile, I assume that your carrier also has something like these apps more importantly, you should see which apps you don't (or do) need before you delete them

[Guide] EVO 3d factory apps and bloat removal!

Ok so I’ve seen a few people asking what apps are safe to remove on the EVO 3D, so I thought I would make a list of app names, what they do, and the effects of deleting them. I take no responsibility to anything that happens to your device, but I am or have already personally tested these. I would recommend doing a nandroid backup previous to deleting any bloat, as well as making a copy of all the apps you delete and placing them on your sd card, flashdrive, computer, or wherever else you feel they are safe. This is just a beginning list and I will come back and add more apps and details later!
If anyone wants to contribute just pm me, this list is taking quite a while to do and I am a full time collage student working a part time job as well haha. Please dont flame me for stupid things, this is my first guide posted.

Thank you very helpful
Awesome thread, bookmarked it!
Does anyone know what watch.apk does?
Also, I think these two can be safely removed:
bluesky.apk
burgundy.apk
I think they're just themes or skins or something.

bluesky and burgundy are skins/themes.

That's the one required to watch Green Hornet right?
I'll probably delete it. I liked TGH3D, but it's kind of a dark movie, poor choice to launch this phone with. Avatar on the other hand, wow! But, it probably costed to much to put on the phone.
It's the watch app that is used to watch movies and you can rent movies through it as well. Your pretty safe to delete it .
I noticed that if you delete this:
SetupWizrd.apk
Then, Google won't backup/restore your apps and settings (like Wifi password) to your Google account. Even though, I enabled it in Privacy settings, it still wouldn't restore if that APK was missing.

You can't remove Sense from a Sense ROM otherwise AOSP ROMS would be simple to make
IF YOU REMOVE SENSE ASPECTS WITHOUT A NANDROID OR HAVING SOMEONE TEST IT BEFORE HAND PREPARE FOR BOOTLOOPS
closest thing I can recommend is this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16467400
It hides Sense but doesn't completely make your phone implode

I think he meant his post, not the thread. People often do that when they post something and then change their minds about it for some reason.

[FEEDBACK] Best Apps for Photon #2

This has been asked previously about root apps. However, now that the Photon is a bit more mature I am curious as to the following:
What are the most useful apps (root or non) running on your Photon?
*When replying please give a description as to what the benefits are and what makes it so useful to you.
Mine....
1) Titanium Backup (paid version, root required) - For the backups and quick uninstalls.
2) Root Explorer (paid, root) - Still best file manager I've used.
3) Juice Defender (using the free one) - Only been running it for a week but seems to really help my battery life when off of WiFi. Thinking about going to the Ultimate version.
4) XDA app (using the free version) - Lets me keep up when mobile.
5) Simple Sound Profile Widget (free) - Since setting times up for the sound modes isn't my thing, this allows me to apply custom sound settings when I want and do it easily.
6) FTP Server (free)- For quick and easy file transfers with no wires. Always works.
6) Terminal Emulator (free) - Obvious I think.
7) K-9 Mail (free) - Still best email client I have used for POP.
8) Folder Organizer (paid) - Using this with SPB Shell. Gives me ability to use custom icons, spacing, themes, and hide the titles.
I'm going to stop at eight for now. Might add more later.
So far these are the apps I make the most use of:
Script manager (free version, using it for running scripts and such)
Widget Locker (lock screen replacement, paid version)
Go Launcher EX for all my sexy effect needs.
Root Explorer (Paid version)
Titanium backup obviously
That's about it for my core apps.
Seriously? Just one person with feedback? I want to be using my phone to the fullest and there is more out there in the Market that some don't know about.
How bout this then.....What do you want your phone to do but can't find an app that will do it?
I would like an app that will reboot my phone periodically at specific day/time. Gonna try tasker and see if it will. Didn't see anything else in Market to accomplish this.
I don't think most people haven't rooted yet. I just got mine like a week ago. I'm still reading up. I will root but, there is a lot to know.

Understand....but this thread is not just root specific apps. It is for any app that makes your Photon a great device to use.
So, all Photon users feel free to participate!

Now herein lies the problem. My phone did basically everything I needed it to straight of the box. If anything, I had to remove some stuff that it did because I didn't use it (social networking).
I'm still learning the ropes tho', new to android so if you ask me the same exact question in 2 months time I may give you a completely different answer.

Amazon app store - one paid app a day!
Getjar - a bunch of paid apps for free, best one is Beautiful widgets.
Dropbox - easier to sideload apps
Lookout - scans for malware and etc. locate lost phone via gps, and theres a scream function where it will play the sirens really loud so if you misplaced it you know where it is.
Mangawhat - soothes my manga addiction
Roamcontrol - forces roaming when i have bad signal onto verizons ;D
Widgetsoid - the best toggler for the photon. flashlight works, 3g toggle works, vibrate/ring/silent mode. only thing that doesnt work is 4g toggle.

Widetsoid - megatoggler, which reminds me has anyone come up with a mod to enable toggles inside the notification bar?
Unified remote - let's me use my photon as a wireless keyboard/touchpad for any computer connected with wifi or Bluetooth. (not sure if this is the best app but it was the first one that I downloaded that worked well. Would definitely like feedback on other apps like this.

[Q] Battery and tmobile stock apps

I am sure you are tired of reading post about the battery, but I have been doing a lot of research today about removing the bloatware that Tmobile included in the phone since I took my phone off the charger late last night and found that it only had 8% charge this morning with no use. I checked the battery use screen under settings and it said that an app called More for Me was responsible for 51% of the battery use. This is an app that I have never used and never even knew what it was for until I looked it up today. This led me to look up the rest of the included apps and I have some questions about several of them before I try to remove them using the info from the Removing Bloatware thread in the HTC Amaze General section.
This is information I couldn't find from a basic search so I hope it hasn't already been mentioned other than people saying just delete them. I would like to know what I am deleting and if they could be useful before I get rid of them. I tried going into many of these apps to see what they were for on the phone, but I didn't want to accept all of the license agreements and activate them for fear that they would increase my battery use further.
HTC Hub-Just an app store? Anything special? Worth creating an HTC sense account for? I remember reading somewhere that this was a battery/memory hog. Delete?
HTC likes-Delete?
Latitude-Delete?
Lookout-Seems like a good app, Keep?
More for Me-Definitely delete
My Device-Same as my account? Delete?
Navigation-Similar to Telenav GPS Navigator?
Peep-Delete
Polaris office-Handy office suite? Keep?
Pro Apps-Delete?
Tmobile Mall-Just an app store? Delete?
Tmobile Name ID-Liked it during the trial, but don't want to pay $4 for it, is there a free alternative?
Tmobile TV HD-Delete?
Tags-Umm, for scanning tags, not even sure what this is for. Delete?
Telenav GPS Navigator-Is this a trial? Similar to Navigation app above? Which one should I keep?
Qik video chat-anything special? Same as Skype? Delete?
Voice search-Not sure what it is for. Is it like Vlingo? Delete?
Sorry for the long post and I haven't unlocked my bootloader for fear of losing the warranty. To get rid of these programs I will just disable them using the method in the thread listed above.
HTC Hub- Not worth using. Just another HTC app for customizing.
HTC likes-Delete? -Yes
Latitude-Delete? (Might not delete that one. It goes along with Maps and Navigation)
Lookout-Seems like a good app, Keep? (If you pay for full insurance MobileSecurity has an app for you)
More for Me-Definitely delete
My Device-Same as my account? Delete? - Yes
Navigation-Similar to Telenav GPS Navigator? (Free app. I use it all the time. Keep)
Peep-Delete
Polaris office-Handy office suite? Keep? -Yes, keep.
Pro Apps-Delete? - Yes
Tmobile Mall-Just an app store? Delete? (Just Tmo app store, delete)
Tmobile Name ID-Liked it during the trial, but don't want to pay $4 for it, is there a free alternative? (don't delete this one I've read deleting it messes up phone calls)
Tmobile TV HD-Delete? (Yes.It's a subscribe service)
Tags-Umm, for scanning tags, not even sure what this is for. Delete? (is this the barcode scanner?)
Telenav GPS Navigator-Is this a trial? Similar to Navigation app above? Which one should I keep? (delete this one)
Qik video chat-anything special? Same as Skype? Delete? (worse video chat app ever. Delete. Use Tango instead) =P
Voice search-Not sure what it is for. Is it like Vlingo? Delete? (Not sure what Vlingo is but you can redownload voice search from the Market, just a way to search things by saying it. ie: dial john smith. If you're not going to use it. Delete.)

what T-Mo Apps?
what System Apps?
Im gonna be using Root explorer file manager
worked great for me in 2.3.4
Thanks in advanced Hope this thread also helps other people
Remove all the stuff that you desire, but one by one and making a backup in each case. If your phone is still stable, you can continue removing stuff (otherwise, restore the backup and try to remove another app).
I think that you can remove safely these apps: 2-4, 11-18, 21-24, 26, 27, 29-34, 37, 38, 40, 41, 44-58.
Wow I've forgotten how much bloat these phones/stock roms come with. RoberGalarga pretty much covered everything that can be safely removed. I would just add 44 and I'm not sure what 1 and 19 are but usually any carrier/manufacturer branded apps can be safely removed. Just remember to backup just in case.
Should I remove them with Titanium?
What about those files that end in extension ".odex" do I delete those also or just the app related to the ".odex" file?
1- is the same as My T-Mo Account
19- is the HTC kind of App store.
Does anyone knows if ics has a battery widget? I cat find it under HTC ones like in GB. If not is there a way to get battery % on my stock ice?
Thanks in advanced

You need to remove both the apk and the odex files. It's up to you but to me Titanium is easier to use to remove apps plus you can create a backup of the app before removing it.

2016 LG V10 (VS990) Bloatware Removal List

I am NOT responsible for you destroying or messing up your device during bloatware removal.
Here is the official bloatware removal list that you can rely on to get rid of unwanted apps:
Regular Bloatware:
Audible
Slacker Radio
Verizon Location Agent (Significant Battery Life Killer)
VZ Messages
Caller Name ID
VZ Support and Protection
VZ NFL Mobile
VZ Cloud
Amazon Kindle (Unremovable/Does Not Remove)
Amazon Music (Optional/Not Really Needed to Be Removed)
Amazon (Optional/Not Really Needed to Be Removed)
Amazon Shopping (Optional/Not Really Needed to Be Removed)
Removable Without Root Bloatware:
MapQuest
If there is any more bloatware, let me know and I will be happy to add them to the list.
I reccomend to use the System App Remover app, which allows you to restore apps that you remove from the system.
Notice: When using a root removal tool, after you uninstall a root app the app itself tends to indefinitely crash. The fix for this is simply restarting your device.
Don't forget
VZ Cloud
DT Ignite
All of the Amazon apps
(note I am not rooted but these are all on the disabled list which should also be removable but do so at your own risk)

This happened because you were most likely not running the latest version of Android when you rooted it and therefore it glitched it out.

Wouldn't it just be easier to get a non smart phone?

LOL probably.
I think I disabled the second screen by freezing something. I need to go back and see what it needs...

I also tend to not just freeze but remove just about everything I don't find of value as well. I like it super clean, super smart, super efficient While it can be a little temperamental with a couple of apps, it smooths out after a reboot and clean up.
REALLY digging this lovely, just purchased device. I like to root and optimize from the get go! I look forward to exploring!
