I used Adfree from BigTinCan to update the hosts file.

this one i suppose.
i will check it out.
i think the best (least resource-hungry) would be to update the hosts file only manually. those ad-spammers are inventing new domains all the time, but there's no need to run a daemon for that.
Of course, everything that contains a Google in it's name is safe to remove. Have a look at this.

thanks.
took me a while to realise i had to install another app to remove system apps.
now i'm happy.
btw, this list you linked, does that mean that other (default install) apps are NOT safe to remove? there was a few that still caught my eye, e.g. that drm-content thing...

You can disable the auto update function in adfree, that's what I did. This way it will not run, unless you want to update the hosts file.

Theoretically you can delete nearly every .apk in /system, but like I wrote, you will need some for a functional phone. Take systemui.apk for example. It is fine to remove, but you will lose the statusbar. But this doesn't render your phone useless.
Same is true for most of the other apps.
Deleting the drm related apk will stop you from using any drm protected content. If you don't need it, delete it :)

I just enabled the included CM 7.2 soft buttons. I don't know if there is a navigation bar mod ala ICS for CyanogenMod 7.2.

A different alternative for you might be Button Saviour or a similar app. You can find it on the Playstore.

@Wooaarr Can you tell me a pc application on how to deodex any CM7.2 rom?

I always used VirtuousTenStudio when I working with apk's. It definitely can deodex apk's, but I'm not sure if it has a batch option as well.
Anyway it should get you started.

    This is english only! (You have been warned...!)
    ​
    A few months back I created this ROM for my personal use.
    This is plain CM 7.2, with a lot of useless stuff removed. (More about that further down). This is for everybody who does not fancy cutting edge looks, but rather looks for something that is 100% (And i mean 100%...) working, without any reboots, or fc's...

    What did you remove?​
    • Unused icons from every single apk (There was a lot of hdpi and not used mdpi content)
    • Useless preferences for our device (Trackball, flashlight, you name it...). Some of it only from the UI, with others I managed to remove them completly from the .apk. Others were just too deeply integrated.
    • Unused binarys (/bin /xbin)
    • All Languages except english
    • Fallback Fonts
    • Help files & Information texts
    • Unused libraries (/lib)
    • Ringtones / Alarms / Notifications (Doesn't everybody use their own anyway?)
    • All TTS files except english
    • Stupid things from build.prop
    • APK's: AndroidTerm ; CMStats ; CMUpdateNotify ; CMWallpapers ; Development ; DSPManager ; Email ; HTMLViewer ; Livewallpapers ; LivewallpapersPicker ; MagicSmokeWallpapers ; Pacman ; Protips ; QuickSearchBox ; RomManager ; SamsungServiceMode ; SoundRecorder ; VisualizationWallpapers ; VoiceDialer

    What did you change/include?
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse
    What Apps did you mod?
    • Browser: Cleaned up menu
    • Camera: Cleaned up the settings
    • CMParts: Cleaned up most settings, removed useless options
    • Contacts: Removed useless options
    • Deskclock: Resized
    • FM: Enable radio without headset (reception might be bad)
    • Deskclock: Resized / Removed options
    • Phone: Removed useless options
    • Settings: Removed useless options
    • SpareParts: Removed useless options / Integrated into CMParts
    • All Apk's have shorter texts / Info fields removed (E.g. Perfomance/Accessibility nag windows) / Blank help pictures / ...
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse
    Every single apk and jar file has been decompiled and stripped of all the useless things I could find. Also everything is recompiled using OptiPng and of course Zipalign.
    What about the kernel?!
    • Mr Android - Thank you very much Dany547 - Ramdisk changed by me
    • Readahead values reworked to 4kb on /data /system /cache & 64kb on sdcard
    • Changed TCP buffers to stock values
    • Changed OnDemand up_threshold to stock value
    • Changed minfree values to stock
    • Removed Bootsplash
    • Clean up of obsolete entries
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse
    What is there to bear in mind?
    • One bug is left (Present in each and every single CM 7.2): Turning off WiFi-Tethering via notification panel might sometimes not actually turn it off. Go to Settings/Wireless&Networks/Tethering & portable Hotspot/Portable WiFi hotspot settings and turn it off from there.
    • Do not apply any pathetic build.prop tweaks... If they are so good, why didn't your manufacture include them? (They are not stupid...)
    • Do not apply any of those awesome MakeMyDeviceFly.zip's
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    Flashing Procedure:
    • Wipe data/factory reset
    • Flash Rom
    • Reboot to system
    • If Home button does not work, reboot again

    Thanks to all these guys
    This Rom is based on CyanogenMod-7-20130301-NIGHTLY-tass, which is the last build of CM 7.2 for our device.

    is there flashable zip or some other way to install dsp manager ? otherwise i love this rom :)
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    Here is a stripped version of the standard DSP Manager. I personally prefer Viper4Android, but of course that is totally up to you.

    Bear in mind, that this is not odexed, so you would have to run

    Code: 
    su
dexo -all

    in an terminal emulator, in case you want an odexed version.
