Is there any safe to remove apps list floating around somewhere for the gs5. Wanna delete some un needed bloat.

Anything tmobile related (TV, My account, visual voicemail, etc) are safe to delete. Other than that, anything that gives you an option to "turn off" in the app manager should be safe to disable. If the app is important (or if samsung just doesn't want you to disable it), the "Turn Off" button would be grayed out.

If you have an app like TiBu, try freezing n see if that effects. I feel this would be a comparatively safer way than deleting.

Look for the apps in titanium backup that look like apps. Do not delete anything that the phone needs to operate.
