Can anybody provide a list of apps (e.g from LG) that is useless and can be safely removed in v10f? Thanks
What don't you want? You can get rid of anything that doesn't effect the uses of say the phone or system UI etc

Just a bit scared that it may not function properly if I remove builtin apps any how.

I will have a look at all the apps ive removed and try to get a list up for you soon

Just take care guys. For example, on mine, removing the "Maps" or "Navigation", makes that no other GPS works.

First froze them. If they don't make any difference being frozen you can uninstall them.
Like that, if you find yourself in trouble, just need to go back and un-froze them again.
For that I use Root Uninstaller Pro, is very easy to use. And you can combine with AntTek Explorer to delete the app directory or data directory.
AntTek Explorer is also good to see all the files that Polaris Office don't show, like Root, etc...
thanks!

I find myself constantly unlocking my phone and I think it's pointless. I know there is WidgetLocker and many other applications that can temporarily disable the lock feature but they're all applications that need to run in the background and no matter what there is always a delay.
Is there a way to go into the main Android files or Framework to delete it?
Thanks in advance

reah HIS post again... he said... NO LOCK not widgetlocker
NO LOCK widget WORKS ON STARTUP (not temporary)
I know that. I've used it before. It is still a .apk that has to run in order for you to disable the lockscreen.

I believe the lockscreens reside in the android.policy.jar file. you'd have to baksmali and change the smali files. I'm no expert so I don't even wanna try.
Interesting... Maybe I'll have to send a PM to a dev or something, lol

1. Why uninstall? Never uninstall system apps if not sure it will work. There are apps that can freeze apps, then simply unfreeze if needed. Titanium backup can do this and much more like backup.
2. Don't know, never used launcher pro, xperia launcher are the best Imo
3. Choose yes to use wifi, and use an app to set it to use in eg Europe, Japan or wherever....search in xda for like gps faster fix.
As for 1 there's also a list on the web stating which system apps can be deleted or not. You risk fc and apps mot working properly as they depend on another, easy freezy are also an app to use for freezing apps
Easiest for you would be to install a custom rom, you need clockwork mod recovery and root then. Pm me if you need a guide

I'd advice you to keep from freezing / uninstalling apps if you don't know what they're for. It's not like you will get a huge performance improvement if you delete these, so I'd let them be.
You can freeze the LG launcher (or uninstall it if you want) as long as you have another launcher installed. This is required, otherwise you're in for disaster.
Thanks for a very quick reply
Just wanted to say after freezing some of the apps that i donf use i got a very good ram space and i feel that my device is now working much faster
Now what about freezing browser and lge hidden menu
And yeah what is rsstarter ??
thanks

It's for the Remote Screen service. If you don't use it, you don't need rsstarter. I removed it with no evident side effects.
BTW, thanks to SuperSkill I learned something new -- I didn't understand before what exactly "freezing" meant...
Thanks freezed it successfully..!
and yeah +1 to superskill from mr as well

Thanks a lot buddy, as i read the whole thread and some links i traced i got to know that it may be raised up by some malicious infected apps i've recently installed. Will uninstall them right now, and i hope the issue will be gone and there won't be a need for a full wipe.
Thanks again for your help.

let us know the solution as well
I used to use with varying degrees of success TB to freeze or even uninstall stuff.
I 'uninstalled' the other day g+, Facebook, and other similar things, they are back..
Might it be the TB doesn't work on this device?
Thanks

You have to flash a kernel that supports write access to the system partition, or create a flashable zip to remove the systems apps, or.remove.them via adb.
The stock kernel doesnt support write access so any changes you make are reverted on reboot.

Great, thanks!
I think I have heard this one awhile ago, forgot about it.
I would like to keep it close to stock, is there a kernel that, say, only grants the write access to system?

I'm on Lollipop 5.1.1.
Off late I started observing that in App drawer, the Search apps option/icon/function is missing.
I always have to reboot my phone to get it back.
Other than that everything is fine.
I don’t use any third-party app or any task killers.
Nor I use sd card.

how?
how have you fixed it?
---------- Post added at 12:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:29 PM ----------
Ive fixed it. Clean Xperia home screen data in all apps configuration.
App search missing
How have you fixed it? For the same theme I get the search bar in Xperia C4. But over time, after some days of use it disappears.
Why does this happen that I even need to clear data from all apps screen?
