Does anybody know what is the com.qualcomm.atfwd service for? Can be safely killed/removed? Or does it help processor, battery & stuff management and must be kept?

Nobody seems to know it :/

Thank you in advance

I've had it Greenified for about a month, and I've noticed nothing going wrong. Everything is perfectly fine.
Even I tried Googling around about that service but found nothing

An explanation would be really awesome

com.qualcomm.atfwd service (atfwd.apk) is Qualcomm's WiFi display. It allows you to mirror your devices display on a TV.

The apk can be deleted. WiFi display is only half functional on Stock anyway - WiFi connection gets disabled. I've included this file in the NoMoto Script and there have been no issues with it's removal.
