I have been able to remove MediaUploader.apk. It seems to be used for uploading to Picasa

youll need root access to freeze system apps and bloats

With ICS and up, you can freeze some app in the application manager, no need to be root, and ICS only allows freezing not critical apps.
Removing apps is not as useful as on my previous phone, with less system memory and ram.

    as observed from the previous phones, this list from the galaxy s2 threads is applicable to almost every phone...

    with permission from our able moderators i am reposting this file which lists applications/apk which are or maybe safe to disable/remove/freeze via TB...

    please feel free to add anything else...and for the advanced users, a flashable zip for removing and also reinstalling them would be a great help
