What apps are save to remove


Recommended Posts

I cleaned my apps dir a little yesterday.

Hope everything that I removed so far,was really save to remove.

Guess so,cause I didn't run in to any problems so far(list below).

Tried to remove google talk and the standard launcher(cause I'm using Launcherpro) as well...Big mistake.:lol:

When I removed gtalk I had a FC after the bootup and the market wouldn't work anymore and when I removed the standard launcher I got a FC loop,till I put it back in again.

Anyway,is there anything else that is save to remove?

There is no standard launcher if you use FLB-MOD, the Launcher.apk is LauncherPro.

Otherwise, I don't know if I don't have a list of the apps. But make a backup of the apk (and odex, but I don't know if that matters...), and then take the apk out, and put the backup back if the phone doesn't work. Don't remove email though! Apparently that makes problems!

Alright,thanks... :lol:

With standard launcher I meant the canvas,that is present in Paul's 2.1 rom(which is the one I'm using...should have mentioned that,sorry).

Anyway,going to try to remove some more stuff,if anything goes wrong I can always flash a backup.:D

Isn't Canvas just, Canvas.apk?

Don't see anything called canvas in there,just a Launcher.apk and Launcherdb.apk.

Complete list of apps dir:

Remove the

SetupWizard apps (It should work, but backup anyway...)

VPNServices (If you don't use VPN)

Touchpal (If you don't use it)

Pretty much anything you don't use or want, but always make backups, or a list of what is removable and what isn't. A list would be better but whatever you rather.

Thanks,will give it a try.

Good luck, and a list would probably help anyone else who wants to save some extra space. There was a really cut down ROM somewhere, Here (Trimmed vanilla 2.1 ROM)

Does the calllog hold any personal details? (I'm pulling it off the phone just now)

Can't you just take it from a ROM? I'll look in the FLB-Mod zip file.

EDIT - Can't see it in the FLB-Mod zip, do you know where the file is? (/system/app?)

I have no Calllog.apk , I think it's merged with the dialer in FLB... Sorry dude
