When I had my previous phone, there was a list floating around that had all the bloatware from the stock ROM that were safe to freeze/remove. I did not see a list for our phones so I thought I would put together one. Below is what I have frozen safely with Titanium Backup. Please feel free to add to the list as I am sure there are more apps that are safe to freeze/remove and I will include it below. These are just what I have frozen on mine and have not had any problems or force closes.
Please note: you would need to be rooted in order to freeze some of these system apps.

Can anyone confirm that this list is safe? I already had to restore from a brick.

Yes it is safe. I'm on stock with my bootloader unlocked and I uninstalled the apps I didn't want. Some att and kindle apps were in a separate folder but I managed to uninstall them as well.

Does unlocking the boot loader stop the security error?

I bricked mine ("security error") by freezing Google Play Movies. There's another forum where others are saying that Google Play Books might also be dangerous to freeze.

I think there's some variance depending on which version of Jelly Bean you're using. Supposedly 4.1.2 v20j may allow for more freezing. I think I was using v10x when I ran into the "security error." As I've mentioned, others have reported running into this same security error problem by removing Play Movies and Books. I still wouldn't label this list as "safe." At least some people are running into problems.

I think people that are having issues might just have a rooted phone only. To avoid the security issue they still need to unlock the bootloader.
I could be wrong tho, but it seems likely.

Report the imei to your carrier. Might not get it back to you, but at least the person who has it can not register it with any carrier.

Check if you are covered under your home insurance policy. I know I am for up to about 5k for items outside of the home. You will need a crime reference number from the police though.
These apps are taken directly from Android M Preview (Nexus 5)Have tested them on my Spice Dream Uno and are working flawlesslyIt can be installed directly using apk
1. Google Camera (2.5.044)http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...44-1925238-30-m-preview-android-apk-download/
2. Google App (5.0.16.19)http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-search/google-app-5-0-16-19-arm-android-apk-download/\
P.S-Will be updating this thread as soon as other apps are uploaded.

Hi, if I root the device. Can I hide root and don't lose HD ability for Netflix?
After you unlock the bootloader you loose HD on netflix, you don't even need to root your phone to loose HD on netflix.

You have to check the Widevine Level. There are multiple apps in the Playstore.
Alternatively you can check it in the Netflix App under "More" -> "App Settings" -> "Playback specification".
To play HD Content Widevine Level must be 1.

It should stay L1 as long as you haven't f*cked up something. If you have the same problem as me and some others, some p3/xl were bad and had the problem to lose L1 after unlock. But normally it should be L1

I'm not sure... You could just try to use magisk hide in the Magisk Manager and hide root on the apps you want to hide... That might work....
But if you have supersu you would have to switch to magisk instead

I actually unrooted my phone and have everything back to default except that the Knox is void (which is the reason why I think I get the error). So if you mean to say that this Magisk thing can help me, can you briefly share the steps and links? Will really appreciate that

I'm not sure which S7 you have... Some have Exynos and some have Snapdragon processors.
Either way this is a starting point. Just have to search the forums

So I went through a lot of trouble and finally have Magsik and MagiskHide working on my phone. I hid the root from those apps but nothing has changed. Can you tell me which specific apps (including system apps) I've to hide the root from? Should the Magisk app also be hidden?

I hide root for banking apps... But to get the play store as showing Device Certified, I magisk hide almost every google apps (system apps as well which can be shown when you go to the 3 dot menu lop right corner when you go to magisk hide)
I also clear data and cache of google play services and google play store AFTER they are hidden...

and just to clarify, when you say system apps, you mean to say all system apps in the phone or system apps related to Google?

I'm not sure... You can try it but I think it's for outlook and such.... There may be a different way for Gsuite stuff...
I'd just say give it a go.... That module can always be removed from magisk later if it isn't needed

Hey man sorry I haven't had the time to try it. I did install the MS Intune app from PlayStore though and it asks for login details for MS account. I don't get how it can help me with G-suite.

Yes... Sorry.... I was thinking of my workplace that uses Microsoft products...
But honestly.... If you Magiskhide everything Google related theoretically it should work...
But entering your gsuite account in intune MIGHT work... I don't knew for sure

Yea I did hide everything man. I think it's related to Knox and even though Magisk is making a spoofed Knox status of 0x0, maybe somehow Google is able to detect the actual tripped Knox.
I'll try the last option you mentioned though.
edit: didn't work.
I've given up and added my work account without the "work profile" option. The admin can remotely wipe all data from my phone but since I really needed the Google Classroom notifications, I had no other option. @Night_1 do you know how can I keep admin out of my phone now? while having the work account in the phone still.
