use SystemCleanup app
it tell you which system apps are safe to remove
BTW
I removed.
all timescape apps,
liveware manager
all live wallpapers
YouTube,Facebook,twitter widgets
photo frame widget
default media player widget
playnow
for safety purpose have full backup before deleting system apps
or install System Cleanup to find out which application is safe to delete
Not all applications safe to remove are shown in system cleanup as safe to remove. But this application is a very good start.

i use link2sd to delete hehe.
i already delete google+ and chrome which are useless.
but i want to ask what about deleting Sony Select? i though it was useless too
I use Titanium Backup Pro to remove system applications.
Sony Select is the title of the application, cause titles may be different in different languages. Can you precise what is the full name of the application with extension, cause it should be same even if the languages of ROMs ate different?

Yes it is. Delete that.
I am wandering. If I'd install different launcher would it be safe to remove the standard Xperia Home launcher?

Its theoretically safe if you select the new launcher as default, and it doesnt stored in internal storage (must be on phone/system). But i havent tried it anyway, i dont think it could brick it.

u can partitioned ur sd card by inserted it to pc/laptop via card reader.
in my case, I used MiniTool Partition Wizard to create the 2nd partition. And dont forget to use "ext2" file system for your 2nd partition.
p.s: u can also use another tools like EaseUS partition master or by Disk Utility on linux. :good:

[Q] Help needed in Cyanogenmod 10.1

I have galaxy tab 2 wifi p3110. I rooted it and installed CyanogenMod ROM 10.1 on it. I am satisfied with it. However, I would like to change 2 things.
I prefer Google Play Music than that stock Apollo music app. I cant find a way to uninstall that app.
Does uninstalling it affects the CM RoM?
Also, I like the background of the app drawer to be transparent not black bcoz I dont like that Background. So, please help me out..

1) go to root/system/apps, find apollo music apk and delete it..
And it will not affect the rom..
For other system apps I suggest you to use app like root freezer, freeze the system app first to see weather it affects the functionality or not and then uninstall it(the app ahs the opt to do that)
2) every launcher has that feature :silly:
if it's helping you it must be thanked.

1) you are modifying the root folder and you must have had denied the root permission to the app...
2) well u need to loose something to get something...

Did you ask them for permission?
And if so, then please add their names to the first post.
That would only be fair to the members who made the real work.

Bloatware

Hi guys,
Quick question... I got this phone three days ago... I rooted it mostly to delete some of the bloatware... The thing is, I tried to delete the apps on the system folders, but it won't allow it... It returns an error message saying it is not possible to delete the files...
Anyone knows why this is happening and if there's a workaround?
Thanks!!!

why uninstall system applications,it is not recommended either one developers that is risky.
try this application work good.Make sure the app you are going to uninstall is not a system app.
Code:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=zsj.android.systemappremover&hl=en
install and Open Root app delete on your android phone and,Tap on System apps and tap on Pro when prompted to choose from Junior or Pro mode.
Scroll through the list of system apps and tap on any of the apps which you want to be removed from your phone.
Next tap on Uninstall to remove the unwanted app and again tap on OK to confirm your selection.
In case the app cannot be remove properly, you will see the following error. Tap on OK and then tap on #1 to force uninstall the app.
Now the unwanted app / bloatware will be removed from your android phone.

What version are you running? How did you get root?
Hi guys...
First of all, the "What???" wasn't meant for this post, for some strange reason when I replied on another forum post it did here... I'm really sorry about that...
Anyway... The phone was bugging and the root wasn't working right, that's why I wasn't able to delete the apps... I wasn't trying to delete system apps, but things like Google+ which I don't use at all...
Anyway, I'm on a D2306 from Brazil... I flashed the 4.4.2 global to get rid of the carrier apps, but I probably did something wrong while flashing and rooting it, so it was't working... I reflashed it yesterday and did the root again and it worked flawlessly...
I deleted the integrated apps I don't use and the phone is perfect now...
Thanks for all the help...
That's first thing I also do after rooting. There is so much delivered with the phone, and not few of it completely useless to me.
I think the advice not deleting system apps, hmmm .... what is a system app? Sony Home? SystemUI ? Or Google+, Gmail, Maps, Sony Select, ... all in system and unremovable without root. I understand that we need to be protected from doing harm to the phone we bought. But still I think the phone should come with a kind of admin function or semi-root to remove what is not needed. As it is it has more the smell of forcing people to using certain things.
For other apps I have different needs than what is supplied. I am lucky I can change things. As examples, for email I can use a normal email program such as K9, for sms I can use an sms messenger that actually does give repeat notifications, such as Evolve, QuicPic to me is the superior Album at 1/10 of the size, for navigation and maps I use Mapfactor bcs it has real offline navigation, and so on and on.
