Without knowing the exact names of the files you removed Shiny I would just reflash the ROM. Next time back up the file with sdx app removal tool before deleting it. (Hindsight is always 20-20 lol.)

*facepalm* ugh. Thank you, I was actually hoping someone has had this issue in the past.. on the brightside I do have a nandbackup (yay for you shiny!) Yeah I talk to myself, problem? anyway. I'll do advanced-restore in cwm and only restore data. (Duh)
Hmm, just a thought, would flashing the gapps.zip for CM7 work in this case for Shiny? Or would it not work since it wouldn't be compatible? Just curious.
*UPDATE* had a brainfart. Restoring Data won't help, you have to restore system.. anyway I didn't remember until I did an entire restore.. only downside was having to update 32 apps. all contacts, I sync with my gmail.
I like to run Nands and Titanium backups about once a week. Sure I don't have a clue which nand is which but by gosh they are there if I need them...lol.

Just another update, I was able to reproduce my issue. I believe it wasn't due to me removing talk from sys/app, but trying to install a cwm flashable talk meant for gingerbread.. lol

How about the stock ROMs without blur? Is there no way of fixing it by rooting? I was hoping there was something I can do under root to fix it?
I use T-Mobile's Social Buzz for that.
Social Buzz didn't work for me properly. What DID work was:
1. Wiping, 2. Flashing a BLUR Rom, 3. Setting up Facebook, 4. Flashing a Deblur'd (Pays) Rom without wiping
Use SyncMyPix, if it gets it wrong just unlink the contact and link it again from within the app

ok. that's just sad and laborious. i've just flashed my phone with the non-blur PL rom before reading your entry. oh well. i guess i'll do that. thanks!
I dunno why, but it doesn't work at the moment. Perhaps I shouldn't have deleted the Motoblur thingy from facebook apps

Weird. By your sig, I can tell you're running SRF so the ROM isn't causing it. Maybe it's just a glitch or something. Try rebooting the phone?

Ya something is bugged, it now says the app is installed after changing permissions but now the apk is nolonger in my /system/app folder lol Titanium backup shows it as active but can't uninstall because it can't find the apk. dang i think something is way messed up. I might just reflash or nandbackup.

I wouldn't do that just yet unless you're THAT willing. I mean, the OP didn't get it to work either. Maybe I got lucky and the market is having issues in your area. Idk, just I wouldn't jump to reflashing so quickly

Ya didn't flash just yet, going to mess with it on the weekend. I will let ya'll know if I figure this out, perhaps if I do it would help others who have the same weird issue.
I am stock rom, rooted, running mrket stand alone and have had no issues, no fc's and have been messing with it for the better part of the morning (few hours)
Epic is as Epic does.
it worked for me but i'm not in the beta and the samsung player was better for me so i deleted it. for some reason the last fm scobbling would not stop when it was enabled for the google music player also.
Worked for me on both the stock rom, and on Frankenstein Froyo. Only issue I have is not yet having an invite to the actual service.
This sounds like you may have remnants of it in your dalvik-cache. Have you tried wiping it and re-checking afterwards?

I deleted them again, but I can't push them. I get a message that it's a read only file system. Are you using the shell mode? I can go sudo in ADB shell, but I don't know how to do anything from inside of the shell.
I fixed it. Had to do a hard reset. I was shocked after the reset that I still had Super User and no Calendar. I started to try to factory reset my ROM using the LG software, but apparently you can't do that. I tried to install the calendar after going into panic mode and I was able to install it and calendar provider. I'm using the normal Google calendar now, not the LG calendar. Which is what I was originally trying to do when I broke it. I just have to apply all of my settings again.
Yea hard.reset doesn't restore apps removed ffrom that folder.

The stock keyboard is pretty terrible in my opinion. I didn't notice any particular speed increase. If anything, it might have actually gotten slower.
Why do u say that? can u notice it?
My touch screen seems less responsive.
apk attached in case you want it.
A few really nice features, like installed/all apps tabs, ect, hit up the article for a better review. ;-)

Make sure you place the apk in the system/apps using something like root explorer.
no problems here, just installed it as a market update, no pushing req'ed.
its interesting to me that some are getting issues with app installs on this ver?
it Does seem to break a feature or two with TB (from what ppl are saying, out there, on the internets), the dev has been alerted, and I would expect an update soon. as far as Amazon... idk
worked flawlessly for me, but then again, I don't use Amazon, or TB to uninstall appz.
Just wanting to start a list as to which apps/files have been been checked to see if after removing won't mess up the phone. I want to debloat this as much as possible
I've removed all at&t apps except smart wifi
removed Polaris office, live wallpapers, Facebook, city ID
want to remove YP but it says LG YP and looks like there is some link to it from the contact book that may break, if someone has already done that please post.
Not going to touch any Google apps yet since looks like some are getting security errors on reboot
what else have you guys deleted and haven't had any issues
has anyone deleted that other setting app for tabbed view... May just disable it since I don't really need two next to each other

You have to root it and then use titanium backup to remove or freeze apps.
Better to freeze them first to make sure you don't delete something that will cause issues later.
Hope this helps.

Not a good idea at all until we have usable recovery. As linked above, some of the apps are intertwined tightly within the lg security and you will lock down your phone if you remove the wrong app. The linked poster removed Google Movies and that borked his phone.
Freezing is fine for me for now. It is not as if the bloat is causing lag, this phone is fast.
The security issue seems to be happening if Google apps were tampered. I've removed every AT&T app except myAT&T along with the Browser and Email app and even the EasySettings, and haven't gotten the security screen.
I removed most of the ATT Apps. Also got rid of LG YP. All it did was make it so the yp link in contacts doesn't work. Just an error message, no force closing.
Also added 4.2 keyboard and camera as well as SVoice. Replaced LGs weird browser with stock ICS. Loving this thing so far.
I've frozen everything with AT&T and YP in it, so far no problems. I'm also using everything I restored from my SGSIII. Apex, SwiftKey X, Handcent, etc...

I got an AOSP 4.0.4 browser apk, moved it to system/apps via root browser. Renamed the lg browser to browser.bup (just to keep a stock backup copy) wiped dalvik and rebooted. Permissions need to be set to rw-r-r.
Hope that helps ya.

No go, moved it to /system/app, chmod 644, deleted /data/dalvik-cache and rebooted. Still Force closes. Any chance you can share your APK? Mine is supposed to be from the GSM Galaxy Nexus but you never know...
EDIT: Nevermind, just grabbed a Browser.apk off some random CyanogenMod 9 ROM. Didn't like it moved to /system/app, but took it fine when sideloaded as a regular APK. Go figure.
Wow, Google should've kept this browser. It blows Chrome out of the water in terms of smoothness and functionality.

Did it the same way as mentioned for the browser. Could never get photo sphere working, but i like the interface of the 4.2 camera so much more.

We should make a list of what we are freezing/removing.
Also, I've been trying to get the browser trick to work all morning... no dice. I can't even get it to show up. Had my friend send me browser.apk from his AOKP rom, and just realized its Jelly Bean.... might be the problem. Haven't tried the camera trick yet..
EDIT:
Ok I got the browser working. Used CM9 rom. Its sooooo fast. I've uninstalled Firefox, and Chrome... Now on to find the camera from 4.2
Ok, I can't get the 4.2 camera working to save my life. It FCes everytime I try it. The gallery is working fine. Used the files from here:
