It kind of improves battery life if you freeze apps such as Facebook that are eating RAM and battery all the time

i'm currently using slade87's CM 7 MiniCM-v15.0 ROM, and it's the 2nd ROM i've tried (the first one being FroyoComb/CyaNoComb by D4rKn3sSyS).
in these ROMs i've come across a lot of apps that were pre-installed, but i didn't need them - so i decided to remove them. then i got the idea to build a list of removable apps for every ROM. here are the list's for these three ROMs. all ROMs have been tested to work without these apps.

ringtones in system/media/audio - deleteable
disclaimer for X10 Mini!: do not uninstall "android keyboard", "latin input method" and "user dictionnary", you will not be able to write any word on the screen (e.g. text messages)
whatever you do, do it on your own risk! make backups!
these are only the apps i tried to remove. the list is far from complete, so if you've found any other apps being removable, please post below and i'll add them to the list. thanks!
edit: when posting other removable apps, note which ROM are you referring to, and for which phone.
added some more apps to the list for cm7 minicm, i believe the list is now complete for v15.0
You deleted kinda everything

and freed up surprisingly little space...
but minicm7 loads quite faster now, it's very smooth and benchmarks are higher, and absolutely no problems with the "missing" apps
Have you removed the DSP Manager anda are still able to use your headphones? Because everyone I do so, headphone support stops. Also, you can go to system/media and delete the ringtones for a couple extra MB
Sent from my x10 mini pro using XDA Premium App with Swype!
headphones work fine on minicm7 without dspmanager, just checked it. idk about froyocomb, never tried it because i don't use my phone as a player.
thanks for the tip

Hey TinoZgb
I deleted maps and places in CyaNoComb and for now i dont have any problems
Sent from my U20i using XDA Premium App
thanks!
i suppose maps, places, navigation and latitude are all removed by removing maps? because there are'nt options to remove latitude, places and navigation, at least not in titanium?
yes with delete maps and praces i don't have navigation and latitude.
i remove it with systemapp remover (it's free and need root)

Don't uninstall these 2 you will get constant force close of latin input method
only reason I say keep user dictionary is because restoring latin input method didnt stop the force close problem but it stopped after i restored user dictionary
Tried and Tested on CyaNoComb 1.3
EDIT: Just realised this is in mini forum, im using the pro so maybe it works on mini. Delete?

it is in mini general forum.
idk what is the latin input method, i guess i don't use it because i don't get any fcs. i also don't use user dictionary, as i only use hardware or multitap keyboard.
i said i only remove those apps that i don't use and didn't get fcs on. they're safe to remove if you know that you don't need them.
this was tested on all 3 listed roms.

Ok, I was just saying I froze those using TB and got fc on input boxes using soft keyboard (android keyboard) as well as constant periodic fc messages. I don't use latin input (don't even know what it is) and i never use user dictionary, just that restoring both stopped fc. If it works for you great (which keyboard do you use btw?), but if you have problems like i did try restoring both to stop fc.
Wasn't trying to say you're wrong just helping trouble shooting.
Thanks for the confirmed list though i removed other stuff i hadn't tried before (like accessibility) and everything's fine, so thanks for the list.

as i said, i use my hardware keyboard, and default multitap keyboard when i'm too lazy to slide it out. i guess those 2 apps are somehow connected to using android keyboard, because i removed that too.
FM Radio Can I delete?
I'm using MiniCM7!
thanks
yes you can

Do you also have a music widget that shows a scrollable playlist? (hive player very ugly)
File Manager HD (for tablets) is best for me !
Smart Volume Control + - Everything in a tiny app, mute and volume options, creation of profiles, ability to turn on 3G, Wifi, brightness, touch options, forwarding calls...
Easy Money - Good for managing your money.
JeFit PRO - almost every exercise there is
So what must have apps you girls / guys using on your v10?
Mine are,
Ampere $ ver
LTE discovery $ ver
Ghostery
Hangouts dialer
Rooted,
Adaway
Supersu
Rom toolbox $ ver
Quickboot
EDIT: There used to be a Caller ID spoofer wonder if it's still in Play.
Buzz launcher
Ringcenteral
Gosms pro
Location spoofer
I use all of these on a daily basis:
Tasker
Greenify (Boost mode, with Xposed)
Titanium Backup (Root, for freezing all that useless bloatware)
Flat Style Keyboard (Xposed theme for Google Keyboard, highly recommend)
Adaway
YouTube Adaway (Xposed)
YouTube background playback (Xposed)
ES File Explorer
App Ops
Inbox
Portal by Pushbullet
Titanium Backup( Most Important always #1 lol):victory:
Root Explorer
QuickBoot
Greenify
Titanium Backup (if VZ models would get rooted).
SuperSU
That's all I need.

It's called capture+ which is from the quickmemo+ app. You should still have it. If your stock go to the 2nd screen settings. Go to app shortcuts and then for one of the apps click it (or cog wheel if you have 5 already) and scroll down till see capture+
If you don't have quickmemo installed just go to the update center and download from lg
