For those who want a rom lighter fluid and particularly frugal battery that just removes everything that is not used because, to our knowledge, many of these applications are started when the device and end when we shut it down ... The one that the following is the result of long research I have used to understand the function of each application system and to identify the libraries associated with them.

WARNING: This is a list that I built gradually from JellyBean ROM xxlt9 then you can take a cue only if you are on XXLSZ or later!

Advice:
1-Operate from a PC
2-Operate directly on the ZIP file of the rom
3-Recommended clean install

List of removable elements (obviously built according to my needs):

data\app\
remove all

system\app\ o preload\symlink\system\app\ (depends on the rom)

I do not need it ... On the Note I can use 3d games! On the nokia it is not possible :( However you are free to not follow the list I created based on my needs! I got many private messages to users who wanted to know how to get the results that I got on the beautiful SweetRom...this thread is the solution! ;)

maybe you can add some info/effect if we remove that element(?)

Now I have no time because there are many app ... however if you have any questions you can ask to me :highfive:
that would be very usefull...or maybe you can point something that might be useful. i once try it, everything working fine...but when i remove some more, only picasa sync left...no contact and calendar sync...
this two is in there: GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk

---------- Post added at 11:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

Tips from @mimmolm on the other thread:
each time that you turn on the device you should go to settings / developer options / limit background processes / 2 processes...you will have less battery consumption and higher performance ;)

I removed all synchronizations because they require a lot of battery...so if you don't use them it's the best thing remove them ;)

hmm... so how do you keep your contact/calendar backed-up?... i flash a lot, so having everything sync to google is nice, i only need to remember to backup my sms (which i miss sometimes). however, i like the setup that use less battery...

and...how do you organize the removal of the file, do you have script or something...

SIM card it's my source of storage of contacts! TitaniumBackup it's my source of storage of calendar! I don't understand the Last question..sorry :rolleyes:

the list that you see on the front page shows all the elements that you can delete. In the folder of the language you have to delete all the files leaving only those who have the format name of the language you are using (it is the same number of elements you see in the examples of the Italian language only instead of leaving those, you have to leave those of your language) ;)

If you need the S Pen extra functions, then put this two files back:

FlashAnnotate.apk
FlashAnnotateSvc.apk


The list would be better, with a little description..

I'm mean what is what.

yes, it would be better, but OP said he don't have time... i'm trying to see by comparing with the list from sgs2, but sgs2 does not have pen.

FlashAnnotate.apk and FlashAnnotateSvc.apk seems a little off from spen hahaha... i mean, we cannot simply guess by filename.

edit: how can we know what apk did what?.... like i want to delete MyFiles apps and replace with total commander.. i have totalcommander.apk, but don't know which file to delete for MyFiles.

edit2: i got it..its SecNoteMyFiles.apk (got this from titanium backup)... i thought it's regarding SNote...

S Note:

If you removed only the files from the list. (OP)

then put back:

sCloudSyncSNote.apk (if you want to sync)
Snote_Q1_Provider.apk
Snote_Q1.apk
libsnote_Q1.so
