Do on your own risk!

I am now testing this app on my Xperia E1 with kitkat 4.4.2.
Model number: D2005
Build Number: 20.1.A.0.47
Basically I will share with all of you those services which can be disabled safely.
You will need ROOT permissions to get this app to work on your device.
Also feel free to post services which you found out that can be disabled without any system app crash or anything.


Download

App works pretty simple, just untick services you want to disable/enable.
I do not know meaning of each service so be advised!

Please do not touch Android System category and System UI category!
Here is the list of system services you can disable:

Album:
-FlickrAuthenticatorService
-PlayMemoriesAuthenticatorService


Bluetooth Share:
-App2dpService
-BluetoothPbapService
-HeadsetService
-PanService


Google Backup Transport:
-BackupTransportService

Google Play Services:(most annoying)
-AnalyticsService(by disabling this one you won t be able to log into your gmail or youtube account)
-DispatchingService
-GcmService
-GeocodeService
-GeofenceProviderService
-GoogleLocationManagerService
-NetworkLocationService


Google Play Store:
-ContentSyncService
-DailyHygiene


Phone:
-BluetoothPhoneService
-TelephonyDebugService


I have been using my phone with these services disabled for few days and it works like a charm.

List will be updated!

If you are not using bluetooth then yes you can disable it and try if bluetooth works just in case.
TelephonyDebugService - I have no idea but it does not affect calling and it's quality. Trust me I ve tested.
About fingerprintservice, yes you can disable it.
locationservice mostly is for gps so if you are not using it you can disable it.
Please do not touch Android System category and System UI category!

disable these mentioned services and post how your phone performs, no worries if something will go wrong you can always enable them.
I will add more services with description in first post ;)

I'll do a backup to be extra careful when I try my custom boot animation , the only bad thing about disabling so much stuff is sometimes my gooleplayservices crashes like w/ youtube ?

I recommend disabling services that I have posted in OP, those are tested and without any bugs or crashes.
As soon as I will find out more services to disable I will keep you updated.

Do not disable anything you are not sure about!
