It's Time to Remove My Bloatware - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps

Hello everyone, I just came across one of the best Bloatware remover on the market. You can also remove other application you don't use or want one your Note 3. This Uninstaller tells you basically what you must keep and what don't matter to system. So Try this and just watch how fast your phone boot.
Google Play Store:
System app remove
Free- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp
Paid Only .99 cent- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp.pro

Thanks for the info

Nice find. Will probably freeze these apps first then remove them once I'm sure it doesn't hoark anything up

^ I recommend this idea to everyone. If you freeze it for 2 days and nothing goes awry, then it would be safe to remove. Excellent idea!

So far this app has worked perfect. I also removed a few it recommended I didn't (S-Voice and Flipbook). They caused my e-mail to FC. Luckily I backed them up first. Restored and all is well.

Two frozen Google apps return

Two Google apps -- Play Books and Play Movies & TV -- keeping returning from the land of the frozen. I go back into TB Pro and refreeze, and within a couple of days at most they are back. All the other Google apps I've frozen remain so. Is there something else on the list I also need to freeze?
When I disable them in app manager they come back after a reboot as well. I think its tied to the play store or something that keeps activating them.

I checked on Play and on app manager for auto update option and don't see one. Odd that only these two are persistent despite freezing. I have the feeling there's another item on TB that needs freezing as well to fix this.
I got sick of this and since I do not want nor need them, I just deleted them

Ah, the more brutal approach. If that worked, and you have no regrets or issues as a result, that seems my only course of action as well.
Why you bother to freeze them or delete? It's part of former Google Market. Do.'t see benefit from deleting it. Can you share your thoughts?

Basically, I have four pages of icons under apps, and many of them are for services I have no interest in and will never use. I'm not trying to save space...I think there's 11 GB free, but I find the clutter off-putting.
Not sure I understand the part about Google Market. Play is just the same thing renamed, isn't it? Plus new look and feel.
Anyway, just de-cluttering the UI.
Yup it comes back now.. Use menu - > hide applications or you can stick them all in one folder and hide just that folder

Good grief...how did I not know about this. Hiding did the trick.

Bloatware

I'm going to be rooting mine and my girlfriends phone in the next few days. I wanted to see about removing the Bloatware on the phones once they are rooted. Is there anything special I need to download to be able to remove them? I have most of them disabled but would like to totally get rid if them. I searched all over for an answer but was unable to find one.
Thanks in advance.

Titanium backup. Just download it from the play store and that will do the trick. Search the forum to see which apps are safe to remove tho.
Sent from my SGH-T999
Titanium backup. It allows you to uninstall anything. If you are not sure about a program, you can freeze it, which will not allow the program to run, then if no problems occur it can be uninstalled. if you search, you can find an ongoing list of programs safe to delete
Thank you guys, I ended up getting the pro version and will search for that list of apps you talkrd about and go from there.

you can try getting a stock rom that's been cleaned of bloatware?
Thanks, I didn't know I could do that with tb gonna try it

You can't do that with TB. Find these bloatware-free ROMs in the android dev forum.

What bloatware do you think is in your Nexus 7 anyway? Just disable them using the built-in mechanism, no need to remove anything.
Yea I've compiled aroma installers just for removing bloatware but this is usually carrier related garbage or touchwiz/motoblur/sense stuff. None of that exists here so I wouldn't even spend the time creating that. I don't think there is any bloatware here just maybe "unwanted" apps. which once rooted can be easily removed or just frozen/disabled.
where are bloatwares in a stock jellybean rom?simply deactivate what you don't want\like..no need to cancel..for example a rom like bamf has built-in the tool to deactivate system\apps.very usefull for a person in yours position..
As a matter of interest what apps/files can be frozen via titanium? Anyone got a list of which are safe to remove?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I'm interested in this too. My device isn't yet rooted. You can force stop apps from settings but I believe they start up again at reboot which is annoying. Maybe time to root my device!

NO! There is a Disable button on the same screen with the Force Close that disables apps since ICS.

Safe to remove bloatware apps?

i didnt see any thread in here for the safe to remove apps on the Note 2
anybody have a list?
I think this is a legitimate question. For those of us that choose to remove system apps without using an Aroma type program we can really mess up functionality if we delete the wrong stuff. I would like to see a thread where a qualified Dev makes a list of all the system apps that come pre installed and tells us whether they are safe to remove or not
IIRC that stupid Sprint Connections Optimizer can at best only be frozen...if you try to remove it bad things happen. Most of the other bloat you can live without ime.

Yeah I've seen lists made for other devices
Earlier I removed one I was almost was harmless to remove but then my notification bar disappeared. Luckily I recovered it

Titaniums Backup is your friend. Backup everything, then freeze, test. If ok, then delete and test. If ok, cool. If not, restore or unfreeze.

What bloatware is safe to delete?

How much and what bloatware is safe to delete?

Depends, how clean are you trying to make it?
I remove a ton of stuff, but I do actually use a few of the Asus apps.
I'd also like to see if we could create a list of everything you can uninstall, personally until CM12 comes to the ZF2 I'd like to uninstall every single non-essential ASUS application to the point where my device is as close to stock android as possible. Anyone know of such a list?

Fairly clean tried a few asus apps some seem like they'd be useful but a lot aren't
But there is loads of crap apps
I'm not going to be updating with OTA anyway so even some system apps are gone already
Just needing to know what i can get shut off safely
Sent from my ASUS_Z00AD using Tapatalk 2
I'll get some things put together for app/location. There's a lot that can be removed but causes the Asus experience to suffer. There's a lot that just shouldn't be there.
I'll try to get a list with things organized by impact. There's a bunch of stuff that's installed but doesn't even show up. Straight up junk.

If you're unrooted, you can't uninstall system apps with the regular uninstall process. It will only uninstall updates back to the stock build version. Then it will update again from the Play Store, which is probably what you're seeing.

You can disable some apps, but that's about it for ones that it won't let you fully uninstall.

I posted a ROM with a list of what I removed.
Please feel free to let me know about more things that can go.
Plus I'm still expanding on it. This is an early pass of what can go.
List can be seen HERE under the hidden content button (didn't want to blow up the post too much).
