I got this idea few days ago. Planned to make it based on stock but too bad my exam is coming soon! Will do it after exam I guess.
A gaming kernel would be nice too, removing recording an some other things

You can flash NXT Light Edition and remove whatever you don't want to keep in /system .
May be a great deal for gaming: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1649368
Oh, and you can begin flashing the .58 enhanced rom because it will give you 420MB of internal memory: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1591398
With Lupus kernel and some CPU tuning (overclock, undervolt, CPU governor...) the games will run wonderfully
Guys, listen!
I'm actually working on it, will be based on stock ROM and GB.

I've successfully removed everything to do with phone/messaging on my Play, you just have to disable some on-boot services to stop the force closes (some services to do with Google Talk, there's 3 of em). I use Autostarts to do that
EDIT: If you group by application, go to Google Services Framework. The fourth "After Startup" service should be disabled. As well as both "Application Installed" services. Those are the only ones that need disabling to stop force closes (except you can't go into "about phone" anymore after removing the phone app)
Ok gonna give it a try

Thanks for all positive comments
I will make 2 versions of the ROM:
Gamer
Gamer-Only
Gamer only will have apps like Dialer, SMS deleted. Gamer will have it but instead of original apps, i will replace them to some lightweight ones.
The rom will be named:
LeetGamer

*downloading system dump*
The package will be installed thru AROMA
I'm busy ATM. From 320MB Stock ROM full of bloat to 170MB (50+ apks deleted)...
When i get AROMA working i'll notify you guys and if someone will be interested i'll send ya beta
-Lightweight Launcher
-Working on stability and better speed

I love this idea. Really the only annoying thing about the stock Verizon rom is that the stupid activation screen pops up once in awhile when turning Airplane mode off, which I leave on most of the time to save battery.
If that activation screen could be stopped you could easily delete, or I would probably ignore, the phone things from system/apps
Great idea,but if you want to create gaming rom, please make it look like psp, this will be real psp phone

I heard this complaint about "old app versions" across few threads...
Really can not get what are you people talking about ?
What "old" versions?
I just updated today to 244 and I have walkman 7.9.A.0.1; album 5.1.A.0.4, movie 5.1.A.0.6 out of the box.
Do we have some newer versions somewhere? please point me to that direction

Drama...absolutely accidentally looked now at the list of all installed apps.... guess what I have 2 Walkmans installed (old one ver.2, and new one ver.7).....
Glitch? What to do now? Of course there is no option to "delete".... should I just disable ver.2 , or leave it as it is .....??? thoughts???
Uninstall the one that can be uninstalled.

You need a PSN account to redeem the code. The offer is definitely available in the UK and USA. Not sure about other regions, but open the app and check.
-Once you have redeemed the code, open up the Playstation Mobile app on your phone. If you do not have the app, install it via the 'Let's start PSM' preinstalled app.
-Press the menu soft key and select 'Download list'. The games will be listed there to download and install.

Dang. Unfortunately I don't have this offer.
Do you know how to download them? I've redeemed the code and signed in on my account and now they're listed as media but how to put these on your phone?
Open the Playstation Mobile app on your phone, press the menu soft key and select 'Download list'. The games are available to install in that section.
If you don't have the Playstation Mobile app, you have to install it via the 'Let's start PSM' app that you should have preinstalled.

Ah it works, thank you!

Did you check in the Xperia Privilege app? You have to get a code from the app and redeem it before they will show up in the list.

Hmm. Not on my phone. The T-Mobile Xperia Z is the C6606 and it doesn't have an app called "xperia Privlege". Guess I'm sitting this promotion out haha. EDIT: after a quick search I found it on the play store here. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sony.gsmguxmk.xperiaprivilege2012&hl=en got my free games. Thanks for the heads up and the quick replies! =)
Cool, gonna look into the Xperia Privilege app. Thanks!
I don't have this offer in India
Can someone please give me a free code?
I have a spare key if anyone is needing it, (glad I got my Tab Z as well) first one to drop me a PM gets it.
Edit: Claimed by long2905
You get 5 free movies too and 60 days of unli music great
I would be very happy if someone have to share one uk key

Got an e-mail from Sony about this but nothing appears on the app. A code for Canada would be very welcome.

Those who are using 4.3, try using App Ops to tame the battery hungry apps from causing wakelocks and having unnecessary control over your personal data.
It'll probably be hidden but there's nothing the Android peeps can't solve right?

Use this or any other App Ops starter to access the hidden menu.

I have tried couple of these appops and non worked for me, when I open the app it just shuts by itself. Do you access it through the app itself or from somewhere else, am I missing something here??

I tried it on both my xperia Z1 and my xperia tablet Z, and they both do the same thing. I'm guessing sony took it out for their 4.3 update.
I'm also looking for an app ops that can work with my Z1... but can't get any... if someone can give a tip it will be highly appreciated.
Sony patched it up like Google did on 4.4.
Sorry guys, I just assumed it would work like it does on my other devices. I updated to 4.3 myself today. No luck. Root needed.

I'm not on 290 right now, but if Sony patched it the same way that Google did, it's not possible to open the App Ops activity at all anymore.

Yes, the article refers to 4.4.2, but that doesn't mean Sony didn't incorporate it into their 4.3 release.
