Hey buddy...Its perfectly fine deleting all the mentioned apps....
just don't delete the Google Services Framework.apk, Google Play services.apk and google play store otherwise you wont be able to use google playstore and other google related apps......

Those apps should be safe to remove... On the other hand when deleting system apps it's usually safer to freeze them (with like titanium backup) first before deleting them to make sure nothing goes wrong like loss of services or a security error. If after freezing them and everything is ok then delete them. I would also recommend backing up those apps with an app like titanium backup and making a nandroid backup also just in case.

Hi. I've Just installed a fresh CM9 and synced the phone to my google account. Once it synced it started downloading apps I had previously downloaded which are listed in my Google play account (including a lot of crappy apps listed that I previously messed around with). Is it possible to remove apps from my Google play account? Because I don't want certain apps automatically installed. Cant find an option on the Google play site...
Maybe you can rewrite your post, cause I have no idea what you want.
You installed CM9 and all your apps etc. are gone? And you are missing the market app?
For now I don't think there is any way of doing this.
Looky here...
yeah i was talking gibberish, updated now

Everytime I install new ROM and sing in my gmail account, play store installs 4 apps that 3 of them i have never used.
Those apps are Facebook, BeejiveIM facebook chat, whatsapp and best wallpapers & backgrounds.
How I can stop it?
Sign into Google Play on a PC, go to My Android Apps & delete them ?

yes, it is
as long as you didn't delete playstore
I just had to uninstall/disable Google+ app to get rid of the annoying "Google Photos" app. I think the "auto awesome" is feature is f****** stupid. I just spent an hour crawling through my /system/app directory looking for the package to delete as root, after I found out that it wasn't easily disabled/uninstalled like any regular app.
I can't wait until Ubuntu mobile is more stable. When it is, I am ditching Android. I'm tired of how companies like Google, Amazon, Facebook, etc., all want to snoop on every bit of your private photos, emails, text messages, etc. They all want to be your "one and only" application, and that's unrealistic.
Sorry, I'm a bit annoyed right now. I don't mind Google+ as a social platform, but I do think it was stupid of them to force their stupid photo **** onto the whole world by making it a mandatory part of Google+ mobile app. Screw that...I will just use the mobile site if necessary.
Certain phones can bootloop if you uninstall the wrong Google apps. You should always ask what kind of phone and update before saying everything is ok. It is rare, but some LG phones will soft brick with the Security Error if you uninstall typically innocuous looking Google apps like Google Books.
Dear all.
I've observed that before updating, my mobile phone (S3 Galaxy i9300) becomes unstable: it works slowly and restart itself easily once at day. During these last days, I had about 15 uptates (at a rate of 2-3 per day), and now it is working smoothly and it's been 3 days with no restarts.
Does this make any sense? Why having old apps without updating causes this bad behavior?
Best regards.
I forgot to mention:
- Android 4.3 (samsung original and not rooted)
- I have disable all the bloatware: ChatOn, Chrome, Dropbox, Dropbox OOBE, Game Hub, Google Play Kiosko, Google Play Music, Google+, Hangouts, Play Games, TalkBack, Yahoo! Finance and Yahoo! News.

There's sme app causing instability.
Only solution for this is to hard reset your phone. Install all the apps you have now from playstore and wait for some time between installs and observe what app is causing this issue. Revert back after finding out the app and I'll help you sorting out.
You really have to root and de-bloat all the Samsung junk, I had the same problem with B-T-noot themed roms so I came back to stock 4.3 with Greenify, BBS (to monitor wakelocks), no Xposed, and no bloatware, handles light multitasking smoothly for 3 days with no restart.
I own an S6Edge that I only use outside work (Games, music, browsing and stuff) and an Exynos SGS3 for sms, mms, email, calls, and stuff, and I have to say in 3 years of owning this phone no rom has give me a smooth and stable experience as a stock 4.3 or back-to-noot.
The rogue behaviour will be caused by the google framework. When it updates the api it needs to update google apps to accommodate changes.

OK.
I'll root it and clean it up of any bloatware or Xposed, and i will se the result.
By the way, What do you mean by google framework?, do you refer to Google Play Services?

I am generally concerned about privacy.
Along these lines...
Is there any tool, websibte, app, etc., that allows for filtering Google Play Store apps by either excluded or included permissions?
The option of filtering different app versions is a plus, as permissions may change across versions.
I found a few, limited alternatives.
What do you mean with Google Play apps? GMS? Google Play services? Google Play Store apps?
