how to remove google maps / navigation / places etc. ? services + apps
In order to do so you need to be Rooted first to gain full access to your ROM.

Then go to your root path
/system/app
Locate the apk then just delete, or rename if you just want to back it up. E.g. maps.apk to maps.apk.bak

You could flash a aosp rom and not flash gapps. Then you would have no Google apps at all. But, system/app is probably easyer. Something to note though, some Google apps are dependant on others, so if you want all gone, make sure you take them all :D
