I'm also waiting for the beta to get stable before I try. After all we all know that 2.1 is the end of story for X10 while X10 is capable of running 2.3 or even higher.
One big thumbs up for the XDA Developers.
There is an offical list somewhere here on xda id link it but im on my phone

That would be most helpful, i have already removed some - using the 'clean' option in flashtool, but i de-selected quite a few from the automatic list as i was a bit unsure!
So... Can somebody explain to us which apps are doing what so we can choose what to remove and what to not remove? Not wisepilot quadrapop etc but the other ones with the confusing names.. Some services for example.
Here are some confusing-but-safe-to-remove apk's:
- CrashSMS (DebugHelper (Service))
- FaceRecognition (the main thing that eats your speed - does not affect Face Detection in Mediascape or Gallery3D)
- LearningClient (Word-Learning for the default keyboards)
- neoreader (New Barcode app)
- OMAClientProvisioning, OmaDatasyncService (Part of the Sony Ericsson Synchronisation)
- PcCompanion (Disables the popup when you connect the USB)
- PicoTts, TtsService (Speech)
- qcsemcservice, SemcCheckin (send crash info)
- ReadyToRun (removes the SMS record)
- SnsContactImageCacheProvider, uWlopProvider (Part of Timescape)
- touchnote (New crappy Note app)
- UserDictionaryProvider (self explanatory)
I hope this helps.
deleted some now i get
force close android keyboard input method. latin has stopped unexpectedly
what shoul i do to fix this now?

It certainly does - thank-you. I would like to ask the following before i remove them (I have backed-up with TB)
1) can i remove all other "sonysync" elements/are there any apps that use the same icon (as you view them in Titanium Back-up) that i should not remove!!??
2) will removing this mean i cannot use any voice activated features?
3) SMS record?
4) Will this prevent any other keyboards learning words?
Thanks again.

did you do a full back-up? if so restore it as a simple fix.
have you re-booted since removing them - reboot helps
I find that once you have un-installed system apps you find an entry in menu/applications/manage applications. some remnants of the un-installed files (data and caches) click on them and select uninstall - reboot once finished. I don't know if this is causing your problem - or if it help, it's just my (limited) experience!!
Your other option is... if you can get this far - long press on any text entry field and select the "input method" option.. then select a different keyboard..
or you can reinstall the keyboard from here..

The app Creatouch is now available under PlayNow app. market.
X10i nordic
I see it under PlayNow. And i'm under Tele2 in Norway.
But it says to me that it can't contact the server. And under that it says that it's for Premium-SMS-orders that isn't available in current network for me.
AN y ideas on why it gives me that message?. I have both 3G and Wi-Fi enabled, so it souldn't have any problems to download it.
same problem here "Problem connecting to the server"
Tom Helge, could it be that Tele2 doesn't support PlayNow? I have the same problem. Heard from a telenor customer who has no problems.
I wrote to PlayNow about thisseveral days ago, but no response so far.

It might be that. But how i'am supposed to get the Creatouch to my XPERIA X10 then?.
I´ve already down, but there are nothing speciel with this.
I had hoped for something better.
i can not see it. If i search for "creatouch" in play now it says nothing found.
what are you doing to even find it?
i searched here:
http://www.playnow-arena.com/playnow5-web/index#ts=1274977799670;view=home_section
nothing found....
I could download it. Haven't gotten to test it yet.
Is this some kind of Android market, provided by sony ericsson? :S I tought that I could just buy music from playnow. but i guess that I was really wrong..
Jeg har netcom btw.
Thought this was supposed to be part of the new firmware update. No luck here. Server connection errors. Nordic firmware in Canada.

I tried to installed it, but said it failed because of communication problems.
Then it was installed when I browsed the applications on my phone.
Wasn't impressed though.. still doesn't let me use whole images but cuts them without asking.
I would like to use images without cutting\resizing them.
Guys,
again my question:
from where do you download it? where did u find it?

PlayNow in Mediascape
I can't see any Creatouch,are you sure?
It works on my X10i which was bought from HK but origin in Germany, fw R1FA016. But really, Creatouch is not that great as I thought it would be... too few options for making wallpaper...
i cant find it.
what i do:
-open mediascape
-select "music"
-select "more" (under play now)
-in the search field i type "creatouch", then the result is everywhere (Title, Interpreten, Albums) "0"
what am i doing wrong?
hmp..
after i download it..
thats apps is not great as i thought.......
it's only some editing picture for making some wallpapers.

Well I don't know if it matters - as long as you've got any of the mentioned apps/widgets etc. installed you can remove them without turning your phone into a slimmed down brick
But my particular phone is an International/Global LT15i
Updating the first post wil be handy, so you don't have to search in this thread
also maybe handy to know what you can't remove.
You can also remove: HDMI
and don't remove "infinite view" this will break the contact view.

Hello all.
I have just bought titanium backuo to be able to freeze the launcher that i do not use in the hopes of extending my battery life.
However furthur reading seems to tell me that many more things can be frozen. I dont know if there is an improvement, i dont even knoe if it actually is running.
But my point is i would like to create a list of apps that are freeze-able.
I have tw launcher frozen
Live wallpaper
Most of the bluetooth things
And my phone is still functioning well.
So please add on to my list of freeze-able apps.

I think that the Note should be pretty similar, take care though and don't blame anyone else if anything goes wrong!!
Root App Remover. It will mark apps that can't be removed/freezed with red text, so you can't accidentaly remove important apps like phone.apk, settings.apk etc.

If you freeze using Titanium Pro, then backup the "frozen" apps, you will have them available to "unfreeze" and restore. I suggest you freeze and then check all is OK before you uninstall them...
So it seems that only certain apps work with multi-screen and it is not just samsung apps.
Here I plan (with your help) to create a difinitive list of all apps that will work.
I have already noticed that some apps allow themselves to be splitscreened even when they do not appear in that list e.g. official twitter app.
Some apps you will find when you press the edit button, you can then drag them to the main list, or remove ones you do not use.
Samsung Apps
- ChatON
- Email
- Gallery
- Internet
- Messaging
- S-Note
- Video Player
Google Apps
- Chrome
- Gmail
- Maps
- Talk
- Youtube
Third Party Apps
- Facebook
- Official Twitter app
- Polaris (Viewer)
Note: you will need to be using Samsung stock keyboard to benefit from typing when on multi-screen mode, otherwise your keyboard will cover the entire bottom screen.
I just installed the official Twitter app and it is now in the multiscreen menu tab

weird its not showing up for me, did you login to the app? maybe its because I have not logged in?
What about S-planner and Calculator app? I would think these would be two of the most useful to use multi-screen, or at least floating over the screen like the galaxy tabs.

a '*' denotes that the app works in split screen but cannot be selected from the list, it must be activated first then another added as the second screen, therefore two apps with the '*' will not be able to be paired together.

Thanks for the info. Bewildering why they would leave out calculator and S-planner from split screen. Two apps that would seem to benefit most from it.
Maybe Samsung will add more apps at future firmware updates.

For rooted users and non-rooted users, but rooted users have the advantage here as they can use 3rd party apps like bloat freezers and titanium backup.
I don't recommend deleting system apps permanently from the system due to the fact that if you accidentally uninstal an important system app it could create system force closes ect.. But if you freeze the apps you don't want then you can always de-freeze them whenever you want and it's very safe and could be handy at times.
For root users i recommend titanium backup to freeze and De-Freeze applications
For non-root users > Just go to settings>Application Manager>All ( select the app you want and Select "Disable") , this is also like freezing apps using titanium backup but the apps you can freeze are limited due to the fact that you don't have root permission but still you can freeze more than 70% of the apps to free some ram and save some battery

and add all the applications you installed to the apps Greenifing(hibernating) list so they will only run when you actually won't them to run and after u turn off the screen they will automatically force close But remember not to put your widgets or apps you use very often to like whatsapp , viber ect... as they will not give you notifications or update as they will be forced close by greenify along with all the other apps.

Note-
>when you turn off sync it will not sync your contacts with google so i don't recommend it but if you want, you can do it and then do backups manually
More tips from Nitol
- turn motion off
- display brightness always auto
- use blackish/dark wallpaper
- sync always off, turn on when needed
- don't use vibration
- don't clear memory/ram from task manager
- do battery calibration in proper way after flashing a rom

A FULL LIST OF ALL THE APPS YOU CAN FREEZE ON STOCK 4.3 IS NOW ADDED IN THE ATTACHMENTS (BELOW THIS POST)
Real screenshots from my phone. The last picture is the ram usage after the freezing. (this was right after i flashed the stock rom and frozen the apps. so this could change depending on your rom setup
Thanks for a detail thread, but why are you saying the music.apk(music player) is a bloatware? Rest all at the list are fine. But if all the 'allshare' files are removed, then 'screen mirroring' (on n3 moded rom) will not work. Could you please add some more explanation about removing which file may stop other things to work?
Thank you so much again for the effort.
Regards.

Thx mate.
Also removing all share apps will cause wifi direct not to work

Thanks,...and not only removing bloatwares/greenifying some apps, some more guidelines should be added, like-
- turn motion off
- display brightness always auto
- use blackish/dark wallpaper
- sync always off, turn on when needed
- don't use vibration
- don't clear memory/ram from task manager
- do battery calibration in proper way after flashing a rom
- avoid widgets, cause every widget has service(s) always running in background
...some more, can't remember right now.
And it should be universal, recommendation for specific rom is contradictory with the purpose of the thread.
Regards.

music.apk/music2.apk is for google play music. you can remove it or move (install) to data/app, or install form play store to save more ram.

and for the OP, its better to explain the use of each apk's. so we know that we really need or not needed so we can safely remove all/partially of them.

On KitKAT google play music is 'music2.apk' not music.apk. these things should be described. And I know these remove/freeze/move/install things mate ☺.

sorry mate, just try to help, i think there is no music.apk in 4.3 + (if Im not mistaken) music2.apk upgraded music.apk version.
yes, the op should describe, not only link it to another thread. i totally agree with you @nitol
Hi,
Thanks for guide and help but I wonder what usability of device will be left if all these apps are frozen. I guess my approach is little better (you may check my signature)
He said freeze/disable not remove. anyway nice guide but need some specification.

So you are able to use specific apps/features with their apps disabled/frozen ?? Well, I guess nobody can.

I wasn't talking about comparison. I meant by being "safer". There's gonna be many who would just freeze/disable all these and flood various threads that "this app/feature is not working" or "that stopped working" like WiFi Direct, DLNA, Email, Weather, etc. I meant by that.

ofc not, my point is, if your app is frozen, you can defrost if you need to use it, unlike removing your app, which is totally removed permanently. i think you can clearly understand now lol

Well for your 1st point
not everyone use the stock Music player on their devices right .. including me .. and that's the reason why i named music.apk as a bloat so u can keep it freezed where it won't run in background as it does
And the all share files and screen mirror, not everyone use those features also right? i mean it's not like we use those features daily. so why give ram to that when we can just keep it frozen and de-freeze it when we actually use it ?
Same goes with wifi direct if u ask me
just de-freeze it when you wnna use it so that way we have more ram and can get a good battery life ultimately
it doesn't take much time to defreeze few apps right so it's a small price to pay in order to get a good battery life with more free ram.
well it might be just the way i see it. but it's working pretty good for me.. hope it does for you all .. that's why i shared this

As i replied to nitrol, we don't use wifi direct like every day and that's why i said it's ok to freeze it to get some more Juice
just de-freeze it when u wanna wifi direct and that's it .. it costs some time but that's worth it i guess when compared with the battery an ram u save . that's just the way i see i guess

don't freeze everything i've mentioned here, just freeze what you don't use. You can guess what app you're freezing when you read the name , if you don't know what the app is when you read the name it's just a system fine that we don't use or don't need so just freeze and see what happens but i assure no force closes or any other errors will come, but if any errors pop .. just de-freeze the frozen apps and see. You will get a good battery life and more free ram after freezing these apps.
