You can try to delete these apps too :

================================================== =====================
Once you have deleted those .apk ,you can delete .odex too if you're using ODEXED ROM
Eg: If you deleted 1234.apk , you can delete 1234.odex too
================================================== =====================
So now you have deleted a lot of things from ur system , your rom will have a lot of unused storage.
If you have downloaded some replacement app like browser or music player and you DONT WANT them take up ur sd or your internal storage,
you can move them to ROM storage like what I have done.
So far those app which I have tried to move them to ROM storage and they work fine are:
Go Launcher Ex
Google Music (ICS Music player)
PowerAMP
PlayerPro Music Player
Root Explorer
Titanium Backup
Dolphine Browser
File Expert
Chainfire3D
Flashlight
QR Droid (QR Code Scanner)
Facebook
SD Maid
Terminal Emulater
Swype | by : eliazxd
*You can try others app by moving them to /system/app , and SET PERMISSION to RW-R-R
make sure there are no spacebar between the app name if not the app will not be working! eg: Dolphine Brower.apk
After deleting system app , download 'SDMaid' from market or somewhere else.
Run it , delete corpes , system cache , app cache.
Reboot into CWM , clear dalvik cache.
## Bugs Report and any app you have tried to delete and is fine, please tell me =D ##
## IMPORTANT ##
DO NOT DELETE SisoDrmProvider.apk , it may cause some music playing problem and FC !

The Cyanogenmod list http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Barebones

Thanks!!
But list of cyanogenmod is not complete for s5830.
The problem is delete certain apk's causes instability.
The rom I wish to use is the ktm 2.3.6 spain.
edit:
ANDROIDCUSTOMIZe the list instability.
Is very difficult to find a list that works in the s5830.
I would have to remove one to one and check work 100%, but I have so much knowledge or time, but still I will not surrender, I want a barebone stable.
Sorry for my english!!!

You don't need a list that's specifically for the galaxy ace.
If you look at the cyanogen one I posted, all the apps that say they can be removed will not cause problems.

[TUT] List of System Apps for Xperia Neo stock based firmwares (To remove bloatware)

Feel free to contribute with additions and corrections.
How to delete the junk apps:
Use titanium backup pro, or a root file explorer like root explorer, ghost commander, file expert...
Go into "system/app" with Root Explorer, in that folder are all the junk apps. Now press "Mount R/W". Now you can delete the junk apps one by one or multi-select them. To have a backup of the apps, I'd suggest you to move them to the sd card. It's good to make a folder called "Junk Apps - name of the firmware" on your sd card.
Now select the apps, press move and go to the sd card and to the folder "Junk Apps - name of the firmware" and press paste. Done.
WARNING: Rooting and removing System apps is at personal choice and risk of lost of warranty and damaging the phone.
WARNING: Always make a complete backup of ALL the system apps before removing any in case of accidental deletion.
DISCLAIMER: This is only a reference guide. I will bear no responsibilities if by referencing this guide through your own discretion damages your phone in any way.
Apps that are unsafe to remove or are linked to phone's capabilities:
(Keep them if you want access to all of your phone's features.)
Note: Many of these only run when needed while a few of them are persistent services that are about 1mb sizes. While removing them may give you a few mb more, keeping them is rather insignificant.
Note: Some of them can also be removed if you have replaced or removed the main app they are tied to, but read the descriptions carefully!

Can be replaced:
(These apps can be safely removed and be replaced by preferred third party apps of the same function.)
Warning: Sony Ericsson's home launcher should not be removed until after another third party home launcher has been installed and properly set up to take over it's function.
Note: Depending on the third party calendar app of choice, it may be advisable to setup your calendars using the default calendar app before removing it.
Note: Most third party messaging apps cannot send and receive MMS if the stock messaging app is removed.
Note: Removing the default clock widget will also remove the alarm feature. Ensure your clock of choice has alarms or have another alarm app installed.
Browser.apk --- default web browser
Calendar.apk --- default calendar
Conversations.apk --- default messaging
Home.apk --- default home launcher
SemcDeskClock.apk --- default clock and alarm
SemcEmail.apk --- default email app
SemcGallery3D.apk --- default gallery
SemcMusic.apk --- default music player
textinput-tng.apk --- default keyboard
Updating of System apps:
Unlike user apps, when system apps get updated, the original apk in /system/app cannot be replaced automatically. Hence the newer version will be installed as a user app in /data/app.
To save space on your rom, the original ones in /system/app can be deleted. Or, you can manually replace the newer ones from /data/app to /system/app.
Deleting the ones in /system/app is recommended since future updates will replace them and saves space on the rom.
Warning: It is safer to remove System apps from /System/App after you have updated them.
Note: Doing either method for facebook.apk will cause you to lose your facebook contacts. However, they can be restored by launching the facebook app, press back button, then menu button > Settings > Sync Contacts. You will also have to manually resync the ones that have been manually added using 'Join Contacts' as well.
Note: The exception is AdobeFlashPlayer.apk. Manually moving it to /system/app will not work. It only works when it's properly installed. So, simply delete the one in /system/app instead. And if it stops working, simply tap the one in /data/app to reinstall it properly.
Note: Having only one instance of Android Market will also fix the bug where some users' Market will not correctly show all the apps that are installed under 'My apps'.
Note: If you use the copy and paste method, you need to set the permissions for the APK after moving. Permissions: Check all for Read, check Owner for Write, leave the rest unchecked.
The apks currently with updates are:
facebook.apk --- Facebook
com.whatsapp.apk --- Whatsapp
Maps.apk --- Google Maps
Vending.apk --- Android Market
AdobeFlashPlayer.apk --- Adobe Flash Player
Making User Apps into System Apps:
System and User apps are stored in partitioned memory, meaning they have separate amounts of memory allocated ie. System Storage Memory and User Storage Memory.
There is ~100mb of unused System app storage going to waste.
By making a User app into a System app, you change it's storage location and free up space to allow you to install more User apps. This is done simply by moving the User app to System app storage.
Note: Recommended apps to move can be home launchers, input methods, apps that you want permanently available on the phone ie. without SD card, apps that you don't need to update.
Warning: Caution when moving a system app back to user app! Example: Moving a home launcher from System/App to Data/App breaks it. Your phone will not work without a working home launcher! Restore the default home launcher to System/App before doing it!
Steps:
1. Browse to /data/app and locate the APK you want to move
2. Move* the APK to /system/app
3. Reboot
*If you use the copy and paste method, you need to set the permissions for the APK after moving. Permissions: Check all for Read, check Owner for Write, leave the rest unchecked.
Bloatwares reappearing after reboot
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1326733&page=2
There might be more apps that are removable without bricking the ROM, but then you lose some functions.
Remember to backup. Do this at your own risk. I'm not responsible if you brick or damage your phone!

Thanks man, this will probably save me lots of work !
Thanks for the list!
I do have an inquiry though: I have been uninstalling some bloatware using Titanium Backup, but I have some six apps which incessantly (and magically) reinstall themselves after every reboot. I want them permanently removed, as I don't have any use of them. I've been stuck in this cycle for at least a dozen times now, and I wouldn't want to resort to the "no reboot, no problem" option. Would you happen to know of a way around this? Here's the list of the said apps:
Foursquare
McAfee Security
+Plus
UEFA.com
xl_launcher
Xperia Hot Shots
If it helps, here are some of my phone stats:
MT15i
Rooted, Locked Bootloader
Stock Kernel
Stock ROM (4.0.2.A.0.42)
Thanks in advance!
You have some spelling errors but i'm not going all Grammar Nazi on you
Good work and i find it quite usefull.
Hi,
I've already removed all the bloatware in my Neo with Flashtool thanks to this post.
Very appreciated dude
But there's still an annoying thing I want to remove, it's the data traffic switch in the upper left corner like the image attached.
I've removed the 'datatrafficswitch.apk' but it remains there, although the app is not installed.
Is the 'datatrafficswitch.apk' related to this notification toogle/switch?
If yes, why it's not removed?
And if not, does anyone knows how to remove this crap?

Weird, I can uninstall whatever with titanium backup pro, (free has some limitations) you can use a root file explorer too and delete them wherever they are, like root explorer, file expert, ghost explorer...

I did some more research, and apparently the unwanted behavior could be traced to the Generic Singapore firmware distro (which I think I have, given that I live in the SE Asian region). I've fortunately found a solution within these forums for this. For those of you who are having the same problem, you might want to check this thread out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1326733&page=2 (and TS, you might want to add this info to your post).
And oh yeah, I used Ghost Commander for the removal of the apk's (since Root Explorer isn't free and File Expert wasn't able to mount rw in my phone).

Hi,
I've already removed all the bloatware in my Neo with Flashtool thanks to this post.
Very appreciated dude
But there's still an annoying thing I want to remove, it's the data traffic switch in the upper left corner like the image attached.
I've removed the 'datatrafficswitch.apk' but it remains there, although the app is not installed.
Is the 'datatrafficswitch.apk' related to this notification toogle/switch?
If yes, why it's not removed?
And if not, does anyone knows how to remove this crap?

No idea, but clearing notifications of the drop down curtain, it disappears temporarily. Use some log viewer to identify when that happens and what apk or jar is involved. Or try to delete that icon. Or simply ignore it, it seems a good solution too.
How did you get circular battery icon? I'd like to know

This is region software related bug and ONLY way to remove it is flashing global firmware.

Check if you have deleted the file "SEMCSetupWizard.apk" I had done the same and after lot of trial and error I found this file is necessary for the lockscreen and for communication via PC companion.
Im attaching the file in case you require, put the same in system/app folder with rr-r--r-- permission.
hope this helps.
Hi dude!
Are you able to update the list with the new apps in firmware v62?
I mean, if it has changed any unnecessary system apps.
Thanks.
Someone already tried to "Making User Apps into System Apps"?
I'm using Root browser lite, I moved Google Music app, and its doesn't work anymore :/
maybe there is something else thats also need to be moved?
edit: I just restart my phone and now it works! (I know, I'm a noob)
10x realy help
Thank you devrruti!
Very useful list.

[MOD]AOKP/CM9 Stripper+CustomizerV1

Hello everyone. I have modedd dansharpy's script to fit in our AOKP and CM9 builds without deleteing SMS or PHONE apks. What teh .zip does is deleting unnececery apps. The goal is to free up more ram and the rom to be smoother. It deletes stuff like Appolo,Music, livewallpapers and other stuff and processes.So you actualy have to download a player or a gallery app from the store.
Download
TUTORIAL FOR CUSTOMIZING THE SCRIPT
1.Get Notepad++, download it from here and install it.
2.Get a zip viewer like 7-Zip or WinRar and install it.
3.Download the Stripper and open it with 7-Zip or WinRar
4.Open META-INF>com>google>android.
5.Drag updater-script to a place like Desktop and right click>Edit with Notepad++
6.So here nearly at the center of the whole text is the deleting process.
7.delete("/system/app/apkname.apk","/system/app/anotherapkname.apk") is the command that deletes a file.(You can do so for any file.Even on sdcard (e.g.)/mnt/sdcard/something.
8.So check out the whole delete process and if you want you can select a whole path and delete it(dont forget to delete the coma afterwards it).
9.You can add a line by replacing appname with the name of the app you want to delete located in system/app
10.When you are done go to File(in Notepad++) and save the file(Not Save as)
11.Drag the updater-script back to the Stripper and accept any prompt.
12.Now just exit the zip viewer and you are ready to flash the Stripper.

To strip a rom means to clear all unnececery things . What the flashable zip does is deleting unnececery apps. It frees ram and inital memory. Its only for Cynagoenmod 9 based roms e.g. AOKP
Hope there a version for ICS too

HP TOUCHPAD ROM Reducer for More RAM

The main issue with the Tablet is the low amount of free RAM (Memory), which is about 650 MB.
If the App does not have enough RAM to start it will crash or not launch at all.
The Custom Android ROMs provide the basic, but it can be reduce to get some extra RAM as every single Byte makes a difference.
Reducing the Operating System is done on every device it will allow for a light and faster experience on older hardware.
On new versions of Android the installation is provided in a file system.new.dat.br, is a compress image that contains all the Android system files.
The file can be uncompressed to remove features and Apps and then repack to flash, but it requires a PC and the process is very complicated, take a look on how is done:
Youtube video on how to :Unpack and Repack Android IMG/DAT files using Android Tool
Guide on how to :[Tool]Extract and Repack system .DAT/BR and .IMG on android 5-8.1
The flash files provided in this guide will Reduce the ROM by just flashing a file which takes seconds, no PC required and the user does not need to do anything.
The ROM does not get modify in anyway and it can be restore to its original install if need it.
Features that does not get Remove if the ROM provides support for the hardware:
WiFi
File Manager
Bluetooth ( Removed in ROMs that does not support it )
Camera and Gallery ( Removed in ROMs that does not support it)
Any Variant of Open Gapps works and also the Play Store.
The process is the same for all listed ROMs from this guide:
HP TOUCHPAD Optimize for All Android ROMs with Swap Partition
ROM_Reducer:
Moves Android system Apps from:
system/app to system/media
system/priv-app to system/media/audio
Once the Apps are Move from the system/app and system/priv-app folder they do not get install.
If the user wants to add any feature or App it can easily be done at any time using TWRP:
Mount --->> System
Advance --->> File Manager
Select system/media ( Select the App from the list )
Select Move
Select system/app ( Select Current Folder ) bottom right corner
Swipe to Confirm
Important:
system/media Apps needs to be move to system/app
system/media/audio Apps needs to be move to system/priv-app
The App or feature will be install at boot time.
ROM_Restore:
Moves the previously Apps to its original location, if the user wants to have all the ROM Apps.
system/media to system/app
system/media/audio to system/priv-app
Remove_ROM_Reducer_Apps_Backup:
Completely delete the files in the following location.
system/media
system/media/audio
If the user after a while of using the Reduced ROM feels that everything is working properly and does not need those files then it can be deleted but its not necessary. Removing those files can only be useful when flashing Open Gapps that require extra amount of space in the /system partition but as of now is 2.2 GB and allows for the Variant Super installation.
Click HERE for all the ROM Reducer Flash Files, Select All_Files (and the name of ROM to be use)
It is best to start with a new ROM installation for maximum stability and RAM gain.
Even if the Apps are removed some of the services could be active in the background.
How to Flash:
1. ROM
2. HpTp_Universal_Optimize_Swap
3. ROM_Reducer
4. Open Gapps
Below are the list of all the Apps and features removed from each ROM and the screenshots after install.

Is always best to describe when the reboots occurred.
Using an App that requires high processing? The Tablet does not handle the CPU frequency selected. It will work but could reboot after the frequency has been use constantly for too long: Flash a lower frequency.
Tablet Reboots after installing or uninstalling App?
Posted on the other guide:
Older ROMs like Kitkat and Lollipop use old Kernels and never were set up to do any swapping, everything runs on the 600 MB limited Memory. The older ROMs will use the swap partition and works but after swapping and the user wants to install Apps or remove it, it will reboots. Swapping is set up to 10% on older ROMs to avoid reboots, any installation of Apps or making modification to the system must be done with a fresh start.
ROMs 7.1.2, 8.1 and 9 are the most stable to use with swap, it was setup to use zRAM and swapping was always use, older ROMs did not.

Download the appropriate "All_Files_*" zip from here and extract the ROM_Reducer from there.
