There are many processes running in settings>applications>running services.
Which of the following can be stopped and what are their functions-
Setup Guide> sim service
CrashMonitor
deviceMonitor
usbux
mtp
Call Log Extension
ProtectedMediaScanner
Secureclockservice
Google services>Cloud-to-device messaging service,google messaging service

I am using .62 stock ROM,locked bootloader,unrooted and I don't use data.Only Wi-fi.Background Data turned off( turned on occasionally),Auto-sync off.

THANKS IN ADVANCE!

No point of stopping, they will start themselves again. And that, my friend, uses more battery than letting it run.

Better root and remove those apps yourself.

You can remove all of them but not usbux. That is needed for USB connection.

from what i understand

if you stop a service it will not start itself until you reboot your phone.

if you stop a process, thats if you kill an app, it's service will restart the process in some time.(this will take up battery, cpu usage)

you can stop the following
Setup Guide> sim service (will run again if you restart your phone)
CrashMonitor (will run again if you restart your phone)
usbux (will run again if you restart your phone or plugged your phone to the computer or charger)
mtp (will run again if you restart your phone or plugged your phone to the computer)
Call Log Extension (will run again if you restart your phone and open the voicecall app)
ProtectedMediaScanner (will run again if you restart your phone)
Google services (will run again and again if your using it blah3x)

if you stop them, they will not open again except you run a particular app
you can also stop the "devicemonitor" but the "battery use" app will also be stopped

What I do is to freeze those running services using TB when I dont use them, for example Google Maps. It runs even if you do not use it but it's handy to freeze them then unfreeze them whenever you use it again.
