system\app\.....Removed 31 files (only 81 .apk's inside) (-Bluetooth, NFC, S Beam,) <-Testing NOW
BluetoothAvrcp.apk
BluetoothMap.apk
BluetoothTestMode.apk OK to remove. This is activated when you need to test the fidelity of your bluetooth. You can do that by going into the test section by typing the secret code *#*#197328640#*#*. Removing it is possible, however, some BT connections actually test the bluetooth to measure how much data is transfered. This way, it calculates the buffer size it needs to use, and at what quality media can be streamed. Removing it can disrupt communications with those BT terminals or you can experience fade-outs, where while listening to songs, the sound will fade every few seconds, because of inadequate bandwith. (this can occur even with this application left as is, if your BT terminal doesn´t have the auto regulation feature)
CapabilityManagerService.apk (Popups when headphone jack used)
ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter Sync's Chrome bookmarks.
DirectShareManager.apk
EnterprisePermissions.apk
GoogleBackupTransport Backup Apps and Settings from your phone to Google Account. Used by Google to back up to the cloud.
Google Feedback Force Close Reporting to Google in order to help fix problems in next firmware update. Safe for the phone to remove, but could cause problems for Gapps. (Maps - Settings - Feedback {won't go online now, no big deal} no FC's at all)
GoogleTTS.apk Text to Speech (Hearing Impaired)
Lcdtest.apk It finds dead pixels on your screen.
LTETest.apk
Nfc.apk "Near Field Communications"
NfcTest.apk "Near Field Communications"
NetworkLocation.apk OK to remove. Provides location through towers instead of gps. This is the semi-accurate GPS simulation. It uses Cellphone Cell information to estimate your location, rather than using the battery hog GPS antenna. If you remove this, things like automatic weather location will be broken (you´ll have to input your location manually). I usually leave this on, because since it uses the very GSM network used by the phone, it seems like hitting two birds with one stone. Using the real GPS will force you to have two antennas working together. This wastes a lot of battery, and really most of the time the network location does a pretty good job of narrowing down your location. If you use GPS A LOT, I recommed just buying one of those TomToms or Garmin GPS, it has better maps, better accuracy and the very device is optimized to use only the GPS antenna, therefore wasting less battery, and not wasting your phone battery life.
OmaDrmPopup.apk "Open Mobile Alliance DRM Popup"
PopupuiReceiver.apk
SecBluetooth.apk Bluetooth Printing??? ok to remove??? (Is this...incorrectly named, this apk actually manages the Bluetooth printing rather than the bluetooth itself. If you have no need for bluetooth printing, this won´t ever be missed or will never bother you in any occasion.)
SecHTMLViewer.apk Filters html to be more compatible. Never used.
SelfTestMode.apk
ShareShotService.apk sharing photos after being taken?
SlideShow.apk looks like probably safe to remove.
SmartcardService.apk
SNS.apk Social Network Sync (Facebook & Twitter) FB works great and still Sync's. I don't use & Haven't test Twitter???
stk.apk Sim Tool Kit. SIM Cards. Manages carrier SIM services such as mobile money. Manages carrier sim services such as mobile money. OK to remove. You know those annoying menus your carrier offers you, you know, to inform you about your hororscope (no I didn´t misspell it), roaming information or traffic information, making you send a message so they can send you the info back? This is the menu apk for that. Don´t want to download your carrier (payed) games or apps telling you bad jokes? Delete this.
................................Sim ToolKit, if delete may cause problems with data and phone service. (Needed for some banking stuff to work)
Tag.apk
TrimApp_phone.apk Trim (Ringtones and stuff)
TwDVFSApp.apk
UserDictionaryProvider.apk Dictionary for word prediction on keyboards. OK to remove. You know when you add new words, like names and nicknames to your keyboard prediction? This is where those are kept. Delete this and you´ll have to write like the English Academy of Words wants you to write. LOLZ and WTF won´t be recognized as words and you´ll have to write them out everytime you write them, rather than it being available to you via prediction.
VoiceSearchStub.apk
WlanTest.apk OK to remove. Tests wireless settings, via the same test menu mentioned on the above test apks. Required for OTA updates.
1-31-2013 (testing with 31.apk files removed + other files = 39 MB - system\app 81 .apk's inside)
