[Q] Stock.apk / Stock.odex - safe to delete?

Hi, Im looking through my Evo and I see stock.apk but im uncertain if that is stocks application (stock market stuff) or if its some stock (default) component of sprint...
Could someone confirm if Stock.apk and Stock.odex are safe to delete?
Thank you!!

Yes it's safe if you don't use stocks.

is it safe to delete just .odex?

Not its not safe to just delete the odex, apk and odex use one another so if you remove the odex then you also have to remove the apk.

[How-To] Removing worthless system-apps

Hey, i deleted some system apps, which i will never need again.
First you need Titanium Backup. You find it in the Market.
So you´re able to save your apps and then unistall it. But dont uninstall everything...some apps are very important!
I only uninstalled apps, which are not to use on the flipout but uses disk space.
Files you can delete:
ESMusica
HipHopOfficial
Kodak Perfect Touch
QuickOffice (i have QuickOffice Pro installed)
RevolverTV
SIM Toolkit 2.1 update 1
TrueCountry 2.0.0012
Youtube (i replaced it with the android2.3 youtube)
There are a lot more apps to delete but some apps need a similar app to replace e.g. blur launcher...the phone won´t start if there is no similar launcher added before..
have fun

Thanks, can anyone post some more disposable applications here?

Here are the names I found on mine:
hiphopofficial.apk
esmusica.apk
revolver.apk
YouTube.apk
KPT.apk (kodak stuff)
Quickoffice_BasicViewer_2_0_26_NSTL_Signed_2010-05-04_19-41-13.apk truecountry.apk
Stk.apk (sim toolkit, i think)

@Schallstoerer
can you post your upgraded youtube apk ?

no problem!
you have to rename it in youtube.apk!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=817528
1. download the apk
2. delete old youtube.apk from /system/app/youtube.apk with root explorer
3. restart the phone
4. uninstall com.google.android.youtube (it appears after the restart in your settings - manage apps...
5. move the new youtube.apk to the system/app folder
6. install it!
maybe you have to restart..dont know!

Having problems with your youtube app.
To make the vid start i have to click on HQ as soon as the vid opens otherwise it returns 'sorry can't play...'.

Some more apps I'd remove:
newswidget
socialshare
statuswidget
universalinbox
weatherwidget
blur-services [very uncertain about this, is this system necessary ?]
blurcontactssync [very uncertain about this too]
do you think it's safe removing them ?
One more question: I made a backup of previously removed apps but apks only, not the odex files. If I try putting the apk back to /system/app the app works again although I read that odexed apps usually need both apk and odex to start again.

sooo lets try!
i dont have the problems with the youtube.apk like you! do you have uninstalled the com.google.android.youtube after restart?
maybe you have to set the permissions in root explorer to
"rw-r--r--"
i hope it will help!
there are a lot of lists which system apps can be deleted and whats their function!
http://www.android-hilfe.de/anleitu...beit-welche-apps-duerfen-entfernt-werden.html
this is the best list i found but only in german!

Google Play Without Gapps?

Is there a workaround for using the Google Play App Store without having to install gapps on the GNex? Or, if not, what is the minimum subset of gapps that must be installed to only use the Play Store?
Thanks in advance for any help or information...

These should do it. (May not even need all of these):
- GoogleBackupTransport.apk
- GoogleFeedback.apk
- GooglePartnerSetup.apk
- GoogleServicesFramework.apk
- MarketUpdater.apk
- MediaUploader.apk
- NetworkLocation.apk
- OneTimeInitializer.apk
- Vending.apk

You don't install them. You copy them to /system/app and change the permissions to 644. Then reboot.

[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

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 .

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.
