[Q] De-bloat apps from stock samsung rom - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys,
Can any one list all the unwanted apps that can be removed from Stock Samsung Firmware.
I've attached whole list of apps that can be found in '/system/app'

This thread is a good starting point.

Cyanogen 4.0.3 Samsumg Apps

I have flashed cyanogen mod 9 on my sgs2. I love the rom. I know it's a weird question, but does anyone know where or how to install both samsung app store and samsung music hub? Are the apk's available from anywhere?
You can't on cm9, install the samsung ics rom if you want samsung apps.
Thank you for the info. Sacrificing those two things is well worth having cm9. I was thinking it was as simple as installing the apks - I assume it needs samsung framework to run

[Q] im looking for a list of system apks

im having a go at modding my first rom the base is asop 4.0.4 and am looking for a list of system apk's so i know if they have to be signed when they have been modded

[Q] install stock memo apk on custom rom

Hi all
I have a GS2 had stock operator ROM (Cellcom Israel 4.0.3)
backed up free titanium
installed pilotx JB rom and dual boot thin touchwiz JB
wanted to restore the stock memo app onto PilotX
titanium freezes when doing so
when I find the apk file, and click it tells me not installed
have tried to put the apk (including a deodexed version i found somewhere on XDA) into system/app (and data/app)
and reboot - all to no avail.
note that on my dual boot to thin touchwiz JB i CAN restore the memo app from titanium.
is this because this rom includes TW 5 - I think I read somewhere stock samsung apps require TW (??)
So is there a way to get the stock memo app onto pilot X?
is there a way to find a TW5 apk to put onto pilotX in hopes that after that I could restore the memo app?
(yes I have tried numerous memo apps from market, don't know why but I like stock samsung one best!)
thanks in advance for advice!

you can only use those original samsung softwares on touchwiz based ROMs (meaning in fact custom roms based on stocks = "sammy roms")
so it's not possible to use them on aosp or aokp based roms if the touchwiz framework is not incorporated...and normally it's not because exactly the usage of easy theming and independence from samsung is the source of those roms.
So i don't know what pilotX rom is based on, but if not based on sammy it will probably not work

[Q] Android 4.2 smooth with Samsung apps?

Hey guys as im looking for a more smoother experience on my phone, im thinking of downloading a custom rom such as cyanogen rom which removes all unnecessary bloatware. However im wondering is it possible to keep the stock samsung apps :dialer, planner and memo e.g. is there somewhere I can download these apps and flash them?
Thanks
No. These apps don't work on non samsung roms. Samsung roms exist with bloatware removed.
Please don't ask questions in general. That's what q&a is for

Searching for a lightweight Custom ROM

Hi,
I have currently a rooted Android 7.0 Samsung Galxy S6 Edge and I would like to get rid of bloatware, but I'm not an experienced user regarding Android and installed apks (i.e. what apk has what function). I know how to delete the system apks but there are so much apks I might or might not delete so a lightweight ROM would be nice.
Unfortunately all famous ROMs don't support S6...I'm not sure if it's deciding.
Can someone suggest a lightweight rom, preferably for Android 7. Don't have to be an official ROM...a stock rom with rid of blotware would be ok too
Thanks in advance
i use all custom rom but the perfect rom is
