Removed the obvious ones, PlayNow and setup wizard, news and weather widget but wondered what other system bloatware can go...

any you want backup the .apk, and if it messes up your phone, restore it
I removed the digital clocks. I froze crash monitor and SE Sync and I didn't have any problems. There's more but I can't recall without my phone with me.
They were constantly running in the background.

I was looking more towards the load of com.sony listings in system.
There's so many!

If you root your phone you can remove bloatware like Sprint nav, Sprint tv, Sprint zone, some of the HTC things like news stocks I mean you can do a whole lot once rooted

There are apps to control start up apps too once you root.

Alright well I just rooted my phone, do you suggest any apps to control the start ups?
Startup cleaner 2.0 looks well..but there aren't many apps that delay starting..so if you want to look into it go ahead but the difference wouldn't be enormous

For me too. Doesn't matter GSM or WiFi.
Seems to be working fine for me. Maybe the weather is just always the same where you are?
Is it based on location?
Yes location based.
Its not always the same weather. The time of update doesn't change either

It seems the background accuweather task gets killed occasionally?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
same here.
this widget updates only manualy.
same as stock exchange widget
Yeah, the Samsung Accuweather widget updated sparodically, and never updated the location. After hoping for a few days that it would work properly, I decided to get the Weather channel widget from Market and it is working really well.
I wonder if there's an app / whitelist somewhere in the configuration files that the task could be added to so its not closed?

If like me you have 5 plus screens, check out apps organiser, I think its great, I'm now down to 2 screens. Simply create labels to group apps by and place all apps in these groups meaning you are never further away from anything by 2 clicks! this also means less memory in use for your launcher.happy days, give it a whirl

how is this different from folders?
Err not tried folders
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
AFAIK, apps must be placed in android folders manually, and if you accidentally delete the folder, you have to do the same thing again. With apps organizer it's much easier with this so called labeling. Also, new apps go instantly under label "other apps".

I use folder organizer which is much the same thing. really handy!
Its consuming almost half. 46%. How do I get rid of it? There is no remove option. Is this related to google search?

You need Titanium Backup or Root Uninstaller, and of course you must obtain root firstly, then you can freeze or uninstall this app.
Thanks got it and killed the sucker!

Hello there,
I am a little frightened, cause I never installed that app...
is it dangerous or standard bloat?
I can disable it, but not uninstall
Thanks in advance
