First can anyone tell what is bloatware exactly?
Is it possible to remove bloatware without rooting on stock rom?

And most importantly how to do it? Through some app or file manager or what?

You'll need to be rooted and use titanium backup or root explorer as they are in the system files. These are not accessible without root.

I have a few bloatwares running. DO I still need to freeze/remove all the listed bloatwares to get more free space in ram?

You can also use the app rootappdelete from the play store.
It will mark the apps the you can remove without problems green.

Do not erase anything that is marked red.

A far as I'm aware its part of Samsung Dive. I deleted them all and everything still working fine.

I also went in system apps and renamed some of the file extensions to "bak" so they no longer function:

-DSMFordwarding
-DSMLawmo
-EdmSysScopeService
-EDMVpnServices
-OmaCP
-PCWClientS
-PopupuiReceiver
-PRUI
-SamsungTTS
-SPPPushClient_Prod
-SyncmIDM
-SyncmIDS

TwDVFSapp is in charge of setting userspace frequency minimums and maximums of the CPU, most kernels have a hack incorporated that disable the kernel level interface that this app controls. This means it is useless to use it with those kernels. Additionally, there are no ill or noticeable effects on deleting the service as the impact of performance (It is theorized it sets minimum freq to max while launching an app) is almost not noticeable, so it can be removed to free up ~30MB of RAM as it is continuously running as a service.

Edit: I also found out it decreases the screen pixel refresh rate, thus increasing your battery life. Probably not as smart to remove it.

    As per the SGS2 thread, it will be useful to log all bloatware apps that can be removed.

    I've copied pulser's template from the SGS2 forum:

    If you find applications which are safe to remove from the ROM, please post them here, along with what functionality is lost, including which "app" as it shows in the drawer, gets removed.

    Please only post if you have actually tested it.

    Spreadsheet Of Applications Removable

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AqTvctlW89DtdC1qVUlLeVFTV3ZOdUtDclpBdVRQOUE&pli=1#gid=0

    Big thanks to 1234568 for his extensive list

    p.s. I have locked the spreadsheet, if anyone requires access please PM me with your details and I'll add you to the edit list of the spreadsheet allowing you to make changes
