What are these APK's in the CM10 ROM?

There are a few APKs in CM10 that I have no idea what they are.... coming from a Nexus S I know most of the APKs included in the ROM but there are a few that I'm unsure of and if anyone can tell me what these are and if they are safe to delete:
BIP.apk
Inputdevices.apk
SDM.apk
Secphone.apk
SyncMLSvc.apk
Also I have a good idea what these are but do I need them?
BackupRestoreConfirmation.apk
DrmProvider,apk
Gmscore.apk
Setupwizard.apk
Hiddenmenu.apk
Much thanks!

bump... anyone?

i'd like to know too

I understand that Gmscore.apk is the photosphere viewer, but can't get it to work, it seems it's fairly common issue in non-Nexus devices. (like my Sensation)

The BIP is a proprietary Bluetooth apk. Dunno bout input SDM either. Secphpone and syncmlsvc are sprint proprietary apks. Dunno about backup I'm guessing that is for the Google account backup. DRM provider is an apk that is used for DRM. Digital rights ,management. Something apps require for things to be streamed. Like hulu+ Gmscore is related to gmail I think NOT the photosphere camera. Setup wizard is the beginning setup you do when you first flash the ROM. Hidden menu is another sprint proprietary apk.
Do not delete any of these. You can stop them at boot if they are running but do not delete them.

Worked on democracy rom. :thumbup:

Works on CM7 vo-1 flawlessly, I just wanted to see a list of paid apps that aren't installed like there where on older versions.

Thanks, installed without the need to push it to system app on my nexus 7.

Thanks. As said, you can now view the details of an app in My Apps and return to the list without it leaping to the top. I still miss being able to see a list of purchased apps though.

I found that but still can't order the list to show paid apps together. I also wish you could order uninstalled apps alphabetically.

... which kinda doesn't make sense, since this was a feature a few versions ago. Someone even "ported" old market version to workaround that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1809215. I hope this will also be useful to others like it was useful to me

Install it ASAP! This update is much better. You can now see you're paid apps in the app list and when you scroll down and click an app you won't go back to the top of the list anymore :good:

Just installed it as normal apk, without renaming it, works perfect!

Tried to copy paste or install...it worked, but when i reboot play store comes back in the old version.
In my system/app the playstore is named phonesky.apk, not vending.apk (using s'perience rom). What should i do?

[TOOL][FLASHABLE]Bloatware Remover v2.1

Works both on SS and DS
Its really frustrating to remove bloatware everytime you update your device, or flash a ftf to your device. So I created a flashable zip file which removes bloat apps from /system/app.
Removing essential apps from /system/app should be done with caution. If you delete any apps that are essential for functioning of Android, then, you may get stuck in bootloop. So I have carefully picked all the bloatware apps and removed them.
This is the list of bloatware apps that come with factory image
Backup-Restore.apk
BackupRestoreConfirmation.apk

Download the zip file

Removed bloat apps from /system/etc/product/applications namely Neoreader, OfficesuitePro, smallbrowser and trackid
Removed videos from /system/media/video/
v2.1
Does not delete stock keyboard
xxx app is included in the list. I dont want it to be removed. What do i do?
1)Open the zip file using a tool like 7zip. Navigate to META-INF > com > google > android .
2)Extract updater-script to your pc
3)Open the updater-script with Notepad++
4) the code will be something like
.
delete("/system/app/talkback.apk");
delete("/system/app/storefront.apk");
.

So if you dont want talkback to be removed, just delete the whole line, save the file and drag-drop it back to the same location in the zip file.
Your own bloat-killer tool is ready
Flash it using cwm
Feel free to list some more bloat apps that come with stock firmware
updater-script can be found here

you are my hero

could you please confirm that 1) this is a procedure focused on xperia M 2) you tested it ?
My doubt comes from the fact that the list mentions many apps that I don't have and also apps that I would be surprised to find in a sony device (i.e. galaxy4.apk). The summary is that perhaps apps that can be safely removed in a samsung device can NOT be removed in a sony device.
Please say the truth if you really want to be helpful

galaxy4.apk is one of the Android standard live wallpaper, so it's actually pretty normal to be found on basically any Android devices.
This doesn't mean that I've tested the OP's work, just FYI.

1) Yes, this is a procedure focussed on Xperia M
2) Yes, i have personally tested this on Xperia M(c1905) as mentioned above
All the apps mentioned in the list can be found in /system/app partition.(Latest fw). Galaxy4.apk is the ""Galaxy" Live Wallpaper! also found in /system/app

Thanks to alvinhochun for the info and to the OP for confirming !
I'm looking forward to get rid of my bloatware but I'm also scared of boot loops if I delete the wrong application !

Edit : Solved the problem.
By the way this zip needs some update too.. I removed many apps manually after flashing this zip. It leaves the odex files in the system. For ex: galaxy.apk the galaxy.odex should not deleted in system.

WARNING
the script seems to remove ALL the stock keyboard (textinput-chn.apk AND textinput-tng.apk); if you don't have a third party keyboard installed you end up with the only google voice as input method !!!

Mate when you flash, only some of them are removed for you automatically rest of them have to be removed by yourself like for me Google Movies wasn't removed and I had to uninstall it manually. Manually uninstalling it doesn't mean using Titanium Backup just uninstall like you would do to a normal app even then it will say do you want to uninstall all updates select OK and done it's removed go to system/app and check.

I understand but it literally didn't remove anything for me. I must have done something wrong.
By manually uninstalling i meant navigating to system/app and individually deleting apks, that's not working for me either.

[Q] Cant remove Sony bloatware (rooted)

Hi ,
On my previous samsung / htc devices i could easily remove all the bloatware while being rooted with apps like system app uninstaller from the play store but on this device (z1 compact) all bloatware removal apps fail.
I'm looking for a solution to remove this crap. Any tips are welcome !
Thanks!

I use titanium backup to freeze bloatware.

But can you delete system apps with it ?

I don't delete apps, I freeze them so I can restore in case of a problem. You could also just use root explorer and delete/rename the bloatware in /system/app.

Yes, nothings changed. Check you've rooted properly.

Coming from an HTC Device myself I am quite shocked you mention HTC having an easy way of deleting system apps with just being rooted Cause as far as I know there's this feature on HTC phones where /system is dumped to RAM hence when you delete any system apps and restart it comes back unless disabled by using a custom kernel

ES Explorer should be able to uninstall any system apps as well...
----------
this was tapatalked with Android

For me ES Explorer says that the uninstallation was not successful but still that apps that I did not want disappear. So I would say it worked quite fine. For example I uninstalled Sony Select and Chineese Keyboard. I do not experience any problems and I was also able to install a few updates from Sony without any issues.

Try using titanium backup & uninstall system apps which you don't want.. But make sure you take a backup before doing anything for your own safety..
If it doesn't uninstall directly, try converting your system app into user apps & then uninstall it..
Hit Thanks if I helped you..
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app

Does anyone have a list of apps i can freeze/delete safely with titanum please?

Delete them manually from system...the lazy way just won't work anymore
or flash this script which removes about 140MB or pure crapware. Rest assured that the phone can function normally even w/o them
Flash it via CWM or any other recovery you like

Hi! You can remove bloatware with RootAppDelate (need root). You find it in GooglePlay Store.

I used the script but now get 'android is updating...starting applications' on every reboot? Read its something to do with davlik cache, but no idea whats causing it? I cant think of anything else ive done before this started. Any fix or advice pls

You need to Deodex ur rom!

Thanks @XperienceD

Do we need to flash the Deodex first and then run the script?
