Those are fine except for remote controls, which is pcwclients.apk, which was reported to freeze and
cause crashes in android.process.acore. Though im not sure how accurate that info is.

No freezes though. But I still have remote control on processes. I think it's different from remote control.apk

The spreadsheet in the first post lists each apk, and has a general description of what they do, actually firm info on what exactly each one does is hard to come by, as I don't think its documented anywhere.

I am not sure what else you want?

Frozen apps:

Hello all.


If any one (but me) uses the Kies Backup, Should know that the two EMail apps are required for backing up the "E-Mail account information"...
(found it by trial and mistake...)

Thanks for this list and all who stated what can be frozen safely.

D.

It's no problem, but maybe you should have a look before...

follow the path META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script

and learn, how to change it, you can use it every time you flash a new rom

    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.

    I will try to compile a big list in uniform format later on. Please only post if you have actually tested it.
