I'm using CriskeloRomNOTE.vICS-V7 now.
this rom is really good to me but some unusable apps exist.
and also it has some duplicated apps like camera & camera ics.
I just want to remove those unusable apps.
I think it would be possible to delete apk files on CriskeloRomNOTE.vICS-V7.zip before flashing.
Then rezip the file and flash. Will it work?
I need your help T.T Thx!!
you should flash it first then remove anything you don't want in system/app with root explorer.
you can see guidance for applications that safe to remove here:

uhm.. thx for your advice, but I can't remove apps by using root explorer or root app remover.
In case of root explorer, it should be required to remove apps that getting permission to change mount r/w to r/o.
But i can't change r/w to r/o at system-app folder.
In other words, I can't remove apps by using the removing applications...
Is there any other way to do?
or please give me some methods to make those removing apps can be worked on my phone..
Thank you.
You should be able to change it in totalcmd (the setting is difficult to find, but it works).
Or, try Root App Delete from the market, maybe it'll work for you.

I found nice memo, dialler, calendar at Android Market.
Under system/app, there is memo, dialler, calendar but cannot remove it. How can I remove and replace with my selection? Tq
no need to remove them just install new one normally and if you want to remove you need to have root
If u'RE already rooted..then install root explorer..navigate to system apps...delete apk...copy the napkins u want..fix permissions and u're done

Tq very much for all suggestion. I've root my Mini, using emanoN v5. I install my selected apps as usual but it not replace with existing apk such as dialler. Which mean, original dialler still at same places. No change with my selection apk
i use titanium backup to remove all unwanted system apps seems to work well

Can you explain in detail on your method? My device is rooted using emanoN v5
open es file explorer go to aetting check all the root options
go the root of your device by keeping your finger pressed on star button
then go to system, then go to app, copy the apk file in that folder you want to install

I had try exactly as your advice to install dialler but it install as a second dialler. Is there anything i would missed up something? I tried rename same as original dialler but when install, on portion where we can cancel or install, it still show its original name. I realized all .apk in system/apps have it twin file (.odex) which I believe to differentiate the system apk and normal apk. Does need do something on this?
Use systemapp remover to remove any app from the ROM. Of course, always be careful when removing system apps.

Out of curiosity when apk is pushed to system/app folder, does it get deleted in a factory reset.??

Good day, friends.
First of all, sorry for my poor English, i`ll try to speak shortly.
I have Xperia T LT30p running on stock f/w 7.0.A.1.303, bootloader is factory locked, rooted with this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460) method.
I deleted some apps from SYSTEM/APP folder throug ROOT EXPLORER, not so much, i deleted Chrome, asian keyboards, power-saving mode and something else, APKs deleted successfully, they are no longer existing in SYSTEM/APP folder, but to my surprise the programs that i deleted are still in the system, they are still on phone, i see them in general menu, they are not deleted at all, and they are running and successfully workable! Maybe you can help me, how can i completely delete the apps that i don`t need ? Only the asian keyboards are deleted, i can`t choose it in text input.
Thank you.

Using titanium backup is the normal way I do it...all I can imagine is that you are deleting the apk but if it is already installed it may have some other files linked elsewhere...
Also, make sure you have the system/app folder as R/W not R/O.

SYSTEM/APP is on r/w, of course.
This is strange, because APKs are deleted, 100%, and only the links can`t make the program works propertly, but they are working!
But anyway, i`ll try to do like you said.

If I remember correctly, there is another folder in system somewhere ( I think on x10 it was system/user/app/customization) where the system will install user apps from, if they have not been deleted from here too they will be reinstalled! Try this: pick one of they apps you could not get rid of and use root explorer to "search" for the apk name, that will show you the locations.
I am quite sure once you have deleted the one in customization it will not come back once uninstalled.
Edit: system/etc/customisation

I have successfully rooted and expected to be able to enter apps and easily remove the annoying sprint apps..but I can't . Anyone advise on how to make this happen?
Thank you.
I use root explorer and make sure you change to rw NOT r/o
remove from data/app
Um, do you mean system/app? my data/app folder is empty. And all I have to do is delete file?

Also, if you're on rooted stock (you didn't flash a rom from android development), make sure to disable system write protection.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2236849
I suggest freezing an app, to see if it doesn't effect anything else, with Titanium Backup before you decide you delete as well.
Awesome! a backup seems like a very good idea!

I'm a big fan of System Tuner. It makes a backup as soon as you click uninstall.

Use Titanium Backup to freeze apps you don't want. Use your phone for a day or two to make sure there are no I'll effects. Then use Titanium again to backup and remove the apps.

Hello,
I have stock jelly bean 4.1.1 installed with root. I tried to uninstall the AT&T Smart Wi-Fi app in the app setting, but it reappears after every reboot. Can't uninstall this in Titanium backup or other root uninstallers since this app is not listed there. Anyone know how to get rid of this permanently?
Thanks!

download root explorer, navigate to /system/app and find that apk, delete it and reboot... if you cannot find that apk in that location, try srearching in /system/vendor/app or in /data/app.. make sure that apk is nowhere in these locations... even if it found in multiple places, delete all occurances..

I don't like the bloatware.
With adb-shell I could block What"s new" app at the home button.
No succes to remove things in another way. Tried RootAppDelete, ES fileexplorer etc...
So, how to deal with apps like WhatsNew, News from Social Life, SonySelect?
Of course I have Root-access

Use root explorer. Go to /root/system/app n priv-app folders to delete the particular apks
OR
Use titanium backup pro to uninstall whatever u want. But be careful what you delete. :good:
ES file explorer is just file manager. It does not have much functionality like Root explorer

Thanks!!!
But I found an easier way. Need to uninstall twice. First the updates. After that I could delete the whole app
