Shoot...can't remember off the top of my head...but anything by att...if you can't tell what app it is by the apk name open the apk up in 7zip and look for the icon

There's a bunch you can remove, and you can always use other stock based roms as a reference, an easy way to find out if its needed is go to rooted stock uclb3, get titanium back up and start uninstalling apps when your done getting rid of apps rebiot and see how your doing

Really the best thing to do is experiment...development is all about trial and error and finding out what works best for you if something goes wrong then there is always Odin/heimdal

Goodluck with what ever your building

There's an old saying that goes something like, "Greatness innovates, but genius copies". There's another one that states that, "Immitation is the sincerest form of flattery". There's another, somewhat XDA specific, that goes, "Read/search everything on the forum, then ask a question that hasn't already been asked and answered". With that preamble,

1 - This question is probably better posed in the Q&A section. Dev section is for, well, development.

2 - Taking a direction from the above quotes, download a debloated rom, unzip it, and compare to the stock rom. Read the OPs of some of the other roms, sometimes they list all the apps that have been removed. Mostly, you'll be looking to remove things from /system/app.

3 - Read up on deodexing and zipaligning, unless you plan to use as a base a rom that already has this done.

4 - Ask permission and cite sources if you use anyone else's stuff.

5 - Google, read, research, search again, repeat...

I know it might not be totally safe, but I found these APK sheets for the SGS2.

I always use them as a guide when I go around trying to see what I can remove. It may or may not be totally compatible with the Infuse, but I haven't had any problems so far.

OP...this thread has been moved. Q&A threads should be created in the Infuse 4G Q&A section. Not in Development.

Finished De-Bloating, thanks for the lists dht2005. They were a big help.
