Hello everyone, I've been playing with my defy on 2.51.1 blur for a while, trying to deblur it to the bone I removed a lot of stuff without messing with the standard phone operations like sms or mail sync, and I freed up almost 100mb of RAM.
Now I'm fine tuning my removal procedures but I'd like to start a sort of "mapping" of the remaining apps, in order to avoid renaming the wrong apk and finding myself with some broken funtions, which I'll probably discover in a month or so when I'll have forgot all my tweaks..
So here we are, the next list is the "non standard" apps I left untouched, mainly because I did not know what they do and cannot find any useful info online.
They may be "blur" or may not, so help identifying their usage would be good

Thank you all and sorry for the huge post.. hope it'll be useful to someone
just to clarify something, I know I left some blur apps in the "untouchable" list, but I did on purpose for different reasons. Sometimes an app is needed to properly use the contact list or send sms, sometime removing it made the phone really slow.. so I left them unrenamed
Well, as the APK's in the system/app folder differ depending on the ROM you use, this list might not be useful for all roms, but thanks for sharing, i hope this helped removing bloatware for many people.
2.51.1 Italy to be precise
JRDNEM_U3_2.51.1_BLUR_P3_SIGN_SIGNED_USAJRDNEMARAB1B8RTIT030.0R_USAJORDANRTIT_P044_A010_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf.gz
The France one has exactly the same apps btw
Good work! Think it would be a good idea to put the actual lists in spoiler tags so they're easier to scroll through
sorry for a noob question. how do i delete the pre-installed apk? let's say i do not want to use the standard browser or launcher? i want to sort of create a nandroid as per my own customisation
BlurHome.apk
BlurHome.odex
Quickoffice_BasicViewer_2.0.54.apk
Fota.apk
Fota.odex
voice recognition
and some other file (amazon, revolver, etc), also can be deleted.
But before delete BlurHome, install other HOME app, like launcher pro \ go launcher ex \ etc.
source for bat file:
extreme moto deblur.bat (pastebin.com)
\\\ Before RUN, install any HOME app, like launcher PRO / go launcher ex / etc.
\\\ Remove "%~dp0\adb" shell rm system/app/Swype.apk string, if you need swype.
\\\ Also, will be nice if busybox are installed.
-save as ANY_NAME.bat
-put in ADB dir
-RUN.
DON'T RUN this if you not fully understand all string in this file.
---------
upd.1: add 8 string
I deleted blurhome.apk and found myself with 100% cpu occupacy all the time, as soon as I put it back where it belonged the cpu usage returned to normal so... not a good idea to remove blurhome, believe me.
as soon as I remove voice recognition I get an error popup which won't go away even if I reboot the phone, it keeps popping out, so voice recognition has to stay
quickoffice has nothing to do with blur, it's an application I might want to use, same for revolver and amazon. I mean, I DO remove them, but they're not blur related

UgduiBill, hasn't any problem with 100% cpu usage.
voice recognition error only popup before restart, after restart no error. it's popup, because services is worked, when file removed.

I read a lot of comments about cpu usage removing blurhome, maybe it's different depending on the rom, I don't know.
Same story for voice recognition, I keep having that popup if I remove it.. but, no big deal, it's not blur related, I don't think it really slows down the phone
I'm more concerned about *moto* and *blur" apps/services
I'm using official froyo korea rom on my defy and it hasn't kodak perfect touch kpt.apk.
I want to install kpt.Anyone upload kpt.apk to anywhere please.
UgduiBill, voice recognition service always stay in memory, properly because of this, I removed it and I just never used this service.
fine for me.
Anyone has knowledge of what the others apk in the first list are used for? I'd like to know

I recently rooted my MyTouch 4G and installed Cyanogenmod. However, some of the stock T-Mobile / HTC apps were really good. For example, the clock app, "HtcClockWidget.apk".
However, when I try to install it, I just get a green checkmark and a message "Application not installed".
I have the APK's that I have extracted from a backup archive:

How in the world can I reinstall the stock clock app?
you can't, because the HTC apps you took from the stock MT4G rom WILL NOT work with AOSP roms (cyanogenmod, vanilla roms, etc). why? because Sense apps require the Sense frameworks, that AOSP don't have. closest you can get to getting the Sense widgets on an AOSP rom is trying to find them on the market.
SO WHATEVER YOU DO, SENSE APPLICATIONS WILL NOT INSTALL ON YOUR GLACIER IF IT IS RUNNING AN AOSP ROM.

Download go weather they have a sense clock theme
sent from mi myTouch ICS 4G via xda premium
There is a way to make fancy widget look like the sense clock, but I don't know of another way than extracting it from royal ginger.
On another note, if you want a slimmed down version of sense that those widgets and apps might work on, try the NoNsense ROM in the Dev section.
Sent from my HTC myTouch 4G using XDA App
Maybe I was unclear, but I don't give a crap what the clock looks like or the widget. What I'm interested in is the "Clock" app, which has a stopwatch, timer, and alarm clock.

Tired of low memory? Some smart brains "built" this nice List! (c) freakysands
Some System Apps won't increase your free User-Apps-Storage but will decrease background-usage/more ram/lower batteryconsumption etc.
Warning: Do it at you own risk! Don't blame me for accidentaly bricking your ChaCha! Backup first before uninstalling!!

guess i need root for this, and still i can't seem to root the chacha
Nice list! Thank you very much.
Great! But my market doesn't work
Hi Guys,
I removed all of the apps on the green list and some of the apps on the "carefully remove list".
But now the market doesn't seem to work anymore... I open it and run into an error, I tried rebooting and clearing cache. Can anyone tell me which apps I should "reïnstall"? I have a backup.
perhaps you could try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1394871
Or even better:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Gapps#Google_Apps
Download, place on your SD card, boot into recovery, flash .zip from SD card.
20110828 version, latest.
You can delete MarketUpdater.apk - Market will not update anymore, but installed version worked.
You can delete Stk.apk if you don't use your Mobile network operator menu.
How can you restore removed apks? I want to restore some apks but didnt make a backup. Anyone has a fresh original stock rom? Or is there a other solution.
First of all, lot of thanks, this thread has a lot of use (at least for me)

but there no much diffrence in internal memory..its same as 70 mb...need help
No space. These are applications that take up the system reserved space, which you are unable to see in the normal settings -> applications screen.
I am curious where some system apps do reside. For example My phone has preinstalled "UCBrowser", Vimi and other useless applications for me.
I have the phone rooted but I can't find where they are installed! I also searched the 3.2.1 ROM by extracting system.img but the apps are not there. Where do they reside?
Thanks
If you're looking for the APK files:
/system/app
or
/data/app
However, you should use some dedicated tool to remove those preinstalled apps (in order to remove their data other than the APK).
Yeah, I've looked there, nothing. I tried many root uninstallers but no root uninstaller is able to delete the apps, they all say unknown error, cannot delete file please try again and so on. The applications are not running.
Similar but opposite case is with my alarm application, that one (also system app) uninstalled using root uninstaller, but I removed it by mistake probably as a part of some other application and now I can't get it back. Like UC browser I can't find it anywhere, this time looking in ROM image.
regarding the lost alarm app here are all "userdata.img" apps:
Code:
AldikoEbookReader.apk Facebook.apk OperaMobile.apk tetris.apk
Anduzzle.apk frozenbubble.apk PDF.apk touchpool.apk
angrybird.apk imichat.apk Prince_of_Persia.apk Twitter.apk

baidu_ime.apk MSN_Talk.apk robodefense.apk YouTube.apk
Documents_To_Go.apk navi.apk sushi_slash.apk

Hi,
when I first received my tf300, I rooted it and installed titanium backup, and I used the titanium backup to remove some of the system apk, as I thought I no longer needed them. (I used to do this w/my samsung galaxy s)
However this action completely screwed up the firmware, I am still using .17 (ww) and couldn't upgrade the firmware to the latest version .30!
after some help:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1697283
I figured that I need to push the missing apk back to the system folder in order to upgrade my firmware.
So, if you have (ww) can you please get me the following apks from /system/app folder:
GenieWidget.apk
Kindle-OEM.apk
MyCloud.apk
PRAndroid.apk
PlusOne.apk
ZinioReader.apk
any help is appreciated! :victory::victory:
anyone?
hope this helps, i've had frustrating moments with android too!
thanks malamalaful, still looking for the rest of the apks:
Kindle-OEM.apk
MyCloud.apk
PRAndroid.apk
PlusOne.apk
ZinioReader.apk
