Removing stock services - Micromax Canvas 4 A210

I installed Clean Master app and it has very best Autostart manager service included (i tried around 10 top autostart managers) which helps me low down the battery consumption by stopping unnecessary apps / services after boot. I found the below apps/services as pre-installed in this rom.
Open Clean master > Phone boost > Autostart Manager (appears only on rooted devices) > Scroll down and you'll tap on Pre-installed apps.
I have uninstalled / turned off some of the apps /services which are in this rom and listed below and phone works absolutely fine and witnessed the battery saving but I dont know if it is safe to uninstall or turn off the autostart of the apps which end with [ENQUIRE ABOUT THIS] in the below list:.

(TIPS) for battery saving must open.!!

Thanks... But it is only one tip... LOL
You can also use autorun manager pro to disable the receivers ...

It would be a good idea to have a thread on optimizing google apps which have become invasive bloatware IMO. Along the lines of gapps recommendations for battery: uninstall maps, network location, google backup transport (use mapquest). Also with play services I keep it frozen with disabled receivers since it reinstalls itself if you uninstall it. If anybody knows a good fix for that or has other info on disabling receivers that won't stay disabled, that would be greatly appreciated. Or good apps to use for freezing/backups/modifying receivers and startups. I use system tuner.
Here's my list of user/system apps that I uninstall, some listed by apk and name. This does get rid of live wallpapers and other crap I consider bloatware, definitely personalized for me, be careful. Make sure you back up each app per rom.
--(c.g.a=com.google.android, c.a=com.android)--
black hole, bubbles, Microbes, Phase Beam, holospiral - live wallpapers
Car home
c.a.providers.partner*
c.g.a.voicesearch
Email - c.a.email
exchange services - c.a.exchange
google backup transport - c.g.a.backup - has to do with setings google backup
**Google one time init - need this to only add a new google account
**google partner setup - need this to only add a new google account
Google search
google text-to-speech engine
google maps - i remove all traces of this from my phone with solid explorer
market feedback agent - c.g.a.feedback
news and weather
sound search - google play
tags - for nfc
talk - don't use it anymore,
talkback
vzwapnservice
picasa uploader - mediauploader.apk and c.g.a.uploader
android live wallpaper
google bookmarks sync
launcher, trebuchet, etc. - stock launcher unless it's Apex or Nova
SPG - bloatware
basic sleep mode apps - c.a.dreams.basic or basicdreams.apk
live wallpaper picker
speech recorder
setup wizard - there's already package installer, may be needed to add an account
voice dialer
photo screensaver
c.a.backupconfirm - has to do with setings google backup
stlsync(sp?) - bloatware
if you don't use nfc or bluetooth:
nfc service - c.a.nfc
bluetooth share - c.a.bluetooth
These are from notes/memory, but are good build.prop entries to add or change
config.nocheckin=1 (stop sending data to google)
ro.htc.nocheckin=1 or ro.config.htc.nocheckin=1
>>set your google location services entry whatever it's called to 0
some other good ones for battery, definitely check my spelling:
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0 or ro.disable.power.collapse=0
pm.sleepmode=1
persist.sys.use.dithering=0
wifi.supplicant_scan_interval = 1000 (in milliseconds, use ~100 min)
ro.config.hw_quickpoweron=true (fastboot)
...others can't remember

Disabling Apps

Hey everyone!
Has anyone else started disabling some of the Samsung bloat? I've disabled these without any problems, so far:

BlurbCheckout
ChatON
Google Play Games
Google+ (caused Hangouts and a couple other Google Apps to crash, but everything seems to be fine after a reboot)
Group Play
SNS (Not exactly sure what this is, but it uses the Facebook logo)
TripAdvisor
Twitter
Has anyone had any luck disabling anything else?
Thanks! Without being rooted I forgot the power of the general settings Application manager.
I just now switched off:
- Animated photo
- BlurbCheckout
- Businessweek+
- Dropbox
- ChatOn
- DropboxOOBE
- Gallery
- Google Play Books / Games / Music
- Google+ (after first disabling all the others I had no crash or anything)
- Group Play
- Hangouts
- PageBuddyNotiSvc (does not really Turn off)
- Samsung account
- Samsung Apps
- Samsung Apps Widget
- Samsung Go
- Samsung Print Service
- Samsung Push Service (does not really Turn off)
- SNS
- Story Album
- Story Album Widget
- TripAdvisor
- Weather Widget
- Yahoo! Finance
I wanted to Turn of (or remove) so much more, but this was a good start...

[Q] NFC broken - uninstalled com.android.nfc.apk

I'm having a lot of trouble with NFC. Trying to enable it in settings crashes settings. Getting to it via the toggle lets me turn it on, but is still shown as off by the toggle. Apps using NFC crash on startup.
I just do not know how to fix it. Before i knew what NFC was, i decided to uninstall com.android.nfc.apk. Unfortunately i cannot restore it from the only backup i have. The installation fails. I can't even install a version i downloaded.
Assume all other NFC related services are disabled or missing, including com.android.nfc.apk
All disabled services as listed by Disable Service

[Q] Disable Startup Processes/Applications for Battery's-sake

Hey everyone,
A couple of inquiries...
Startup Processes/Applications
I am looking for a list of processes/applications that have descriptions so I can determine if I can disable them or not. I can't seen to find anything useful and wondered if there was anything out there. I am currently using Startup Manager (Free) to disable the apps. Any ideas?
I am sticking with the default TMo ROM for now. I don't see a big need to move. I have it configured how I was, for now, and I'd rather not do that all over again. The only option I would consider is a move to a bare bones TMo ROM or something like that with most of the bloat out of there.
Freshly Rooted... sort of
I've got my TMo Samsung Galaxy S3 w/ Android 4.3 freshly rooted yesterday. The process wasn't as smooth as I would have liked but for the most part it worked. I had downloaded CF-Auto-Root and use ODIN to transfer the CF-Auto-Root-d2tmo-d2tmo-sght999.tar.md5 file and using SuperUser.zip. I had run into KNOX issues and these were only fixed until after I allowed "Unknown Sources" (under Settings > More > Security) to install the superuser.apk manually to bypass KNOX. Rebooting, SuperUser still doesn't start with the 'stopped' message. So then I have to go through the process again to allow "Unknown Sources" and reinstall the APK. Any ideas?
Also, I've been able to allow some apps to work, whilst others don't seem to work. For instance, I've tried to use Boot Animation * Root to change the Boot Animation, that seems to have an issue changing the file(s). Also, in ES File Explorer, I can't change system\bin\gsiff_daemon to help lower the Android OS process to use less power. Any ideas?
This is an awesome community and I'm glad to start being a part of it.
Thanks,
Johnathan
Thus far I'm down to about 1% drain an hour, what I've done...
Hey guys,
So, I've been continuing to research and change things to get the battery drain lessened. I am about down to 1% drain per hour if left alone. This is what I've done, any further suggestions would be appreciated:
Turned down the display to the lowest setting unless I needed it higher.
Turned off any Live Wallpapers... just using a black background.
With all the stuff on the screen, I can't see it anyway.
CPU Tuner Profiles
Screen On
Governor = Full Speed
Max Freq = 1512
Min Freq = 594 (Now my phone is more responsive when using it.)
All other settings = leave unchanged​
Screen Off
Governor = Save Battery
Max Freq = 486
Min Freq = 486 (One option higher than the lowest setting (384) so it wakes up quicker.)
All other settings = leave unchanged​
WifiScheduler
Power On Daily = 0100
Power Off Daily = 0700
This allows radio comms drain to be lessened since it is using local WiFi. Plus any updates are downloaded.​
Disabled Background Wifi Scanning
Settings > Connection > WiFi > Menu > Advanced > Always allow scanning = unchecked​
Startup Manager (Free)
Disabled User Apps
Aldiko
Amazon MP3
Authenticator
Carbon
Dolphin Browser
Dropbox
Dropsync
Evernote
Facebook
Groupon
HeyZap
iHeartRadio
MortPlayer Audio Books
Pandora
Pry-Fi
Skype
T-Mobile My Account​

As an added benefit, it also charges faster.
My next step is to see if I can reduce the power used by the attenae to reduce consumption there as well.
Anyone else have any ideas?
Thanks,
Johnathan
Perhaps you should go through De-Bloating. De-Bloat is a process where you remove manufacturer added unnecessory programs and recover space and Battery life.
Here's one of several Guides on programs that you don't need to keep.
Once the un-needed programs are removed, you can remove from startup among those remaining.

Greenify works wonders for me, both on my S3 and my Xoom. It's not your average battery saving app, it "hibernates" apps that you choose when they're not active, instead of keeping them in memory, which helps keep your phone fast over time, as well as saving battery. After just a couple hours, my Xoom used to be bogged down and it would turn into a battery hog, and I thought it was just because of how old it is. But since I installed Greenify, it's almost as fast as the day I got it, and the battery life is even better than that. Also, I use the BootManager Xposed mod to disable start-up apps, dunno how it compares to the app you're using, but you might wanna check it out. Good luck.
Edit: Also, as far as root goes, I believe there's 5 or 6 different apps you have to remove/freeze to stop Knox. You might try flashing a de-Knoxed stock ROM, that'd almost surely get rid of your root problems.
Doing Better.
Hey everyone,
As a continual work to improve battery life on my SGS3, I've decided to uninstall as many apps can I can on my rooted stock rom. Who knew that by removing extra Google apps would improve battery life!
Recently uninstalled:
Google Goggles
Google Text-to-Speech
Google Translate
Google Voice
SCouldStarter
(Others but I don't remember what they were.)

I also have an app that will auto-kill apps when I turn the phone screen on. Don't remember which one it is though, I think it is Android Tuner Free... I also use Startup Manager Free to disable apps during startup.
About that application reference, where are the APKs stored and if you simply remove them using a file explorer, does that stop it from running and 'uninstall' it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=35103966&postcount=2
With the above done, my phone boots from start to finish in 58 seconds (According to Startup Manager Free and that's down by about 28 seconds from previous reboots using the same app.) and it is much more responsive as one would expect with less running in the background.
Updated my 2nd post list of Turned Off apps.
Could anyone let me know which of the below items are safe to disable. The below are the pre-installed applications:
Calender
Calender Storage
ConfigUpdater
Contacts Storage
Gallery
Google Contacts Sync
Google One Time Init.
Google Partner Setup
Google Play services
Google Services Framework
Media Storage
MusicFX
Omcap
Android System
Atci_service
Cell Broadcasts
SIM Toolkit
