[MOD] Flashable update.zip to debloat Sony Z2 Tablet - Xperia Z2 Tablet General

I used to use freezing in titanium backup to try and cut down some of the Sony bloatware. The advantage is that it is kept when flashing new FTF images, the disadvantage is that the apps still run and FC! I've made up a zip file to delete the system apps from the tablet that annoy me that can be flashed from within recovery. I have an SGP512 running the UK customisation. SGP511 devices will be the same, but SGP521 devices may not be and phone/mobile data stuff will be removed.
I've taken out nearly all of the Sony unnecessary bloatware except for those needed for USB, MHL, NFC, PS3 Controller connection, home (even though I use novalauncher), basic music playback with the walkman app (go into settings and disable music unlimited), basic video playback, keyboard (even though I use Swiftkey), Screen mirroring, themes, smallapps, I also got rid of the unnecessary google/android apps that can be installed via the play store and just kept youtube, keep and maps. I also deleted the retail demo video and several of the apps in the customisation folders. I moved the smallbrowser app into system as well as the diagnostic apps as they were stored in a random place and not actually installed on my device.
The complete list of items I have removed is here:-

I've tested it on mine and it runs fine, but before you do it for the first time I would advise making up backup in recovery and/or use titanium backup to backup the system apps. I used this excellent software as well as titanium backup to see what apps were installed and what files/packages they related to. If this breaks your device I will help you here, but I take no responsibility for your mistakes. Flashing the FTF image over the top of it will reverse anything this script does without touching your data/settings etc anyway. You obviously need root and a custom recovery installed. Ask questions about that in the appropriate threads here and here. All you really need to do is enable USB debugging, and run the easyroot tool twice, then the lockedrecovery installer.
Any issues, or suggestions of apps to remove please let me know. It took me a while to build up the list and get the script working properly (damn semi-colons).

I prefer to remove the bloatware myself to get my units as I want them, but it's great to have your list to compare with.
Thanks for your effort!

Yeah it's quite a personal thing, but this has saved me lots of time having a zip to do the work for me now so I thought I'd share! I very picky about getting the most from my devices, I also use Autorun manager to stop lots of them starting automatically.

Did you know you can disable system apps in the factory app manager inside the configuration menu of your tablet?
Titanium backup sometimes causes some problems when freezing apps, but the official app manager works every time.:good:

Thanks. I didn't know that. I assumed they used the same method to freeze/disable apps because if I freeze something in titanium backup it shows up as disabled in the system settings. It's too late now I spent hours building this update.Zip, but useful to know for the future!

Anyway thanks for your effort, it is always nice to see someone working in this awesome tablet, and i am sure some people will find pretty useful your .zip file to fully debloat in a single shot.

It's because I've become addicted to flashing ftfs but don't want the bloat that comes back every time!

needed for z2 phone

Use ES-file explorer to browse to /system/app and /system/priv-app and see which apks you want to delete. Then you have to edit the file updater-script in the zip I made to delete those files. Use this tool to rezip it and flash from within cwm. Make a nandroid backup before doing this!
If you didn't understand anything I wrote up there you shouldn't be doing it or you need to do a lot of research first!

Tips For Stock Rom User

Hi,
Today I'm going to talk about how I make my stock rom fast (Who care about what I'm using? Well, keep reading if you want to know) and tips for using apps, so let's get started.
1. You need to clean up all the junk apps in your phone. (Everyone know that ) Here is the extensive list of junk apps in our stock rom:
There are 73 useless apps!!
data\app\
com/afl.seucom.view-1.apk
come.sonyericsson.ia.uefalauncher-1.apk
com.wsandroid.suite-1.apk
org.microemu.android.se.appello.lp.wisepilotse-1.apk
system\app\
adobereader.apk
AntHalService.apk
antradioservice.apk
antstatenotifer.apk
appenable.apk
chinesetextinput.apk
datatrafficswitch.apk (We use quick panel in status bar)
digitalclockwidget.apk
eventstream.apk
eventstreamplugincalllog.apk
eventstreamplugingfacebook.apk
eventstreamplugingtelephony.apk
eventstreamplugingtwitter.apk
exchange.apk
fbcalendarsync.apk
fbiappshare.apk
fbmediadiscovery.apk
fbmusiclike.apk
fbsetupwizard.apk
galaxy4.apk
geniewidget.apk
gms_maps.apk
holospiralwallpaper.apk
japaneseime.apk
letsgolg_ay.apk
livewallpapers.apk
livewaremanager.apk
magicsmokewallpapers.apk
medawidget.apk
neoreader.apk
noisefield.apk
officesuite.apk
omaclientprovisioning.apk
omadatasynceservices.apk
omadownload.apk
omav1agentdownloadservices.apk
phasebeam.apk
playnowclientarvato.apk
poboxsknpink.apk
poboxsknwood.apk
postviewer.apk
protips
retaildemo.apk
secureclockjava.apk
semccrashmonitor.apk
semcdlna.apk
semcemail.apk
semcfacebookproxy.apk
semcsetupwizard.apk
statusswitch.apk
stk.apk
storefront.apk
street.apk
sync.apk
talk.apk
talkback.apk
timescapespline.apk

youtube.apk
youtubekaraokeplugin.apk
2. download xperia s app v2
3. Remove: system\app\
Calculator.apk
SemcCalendar.apk
SemcDeskClock.apk
4. Don't flash xperia s app! Use only:
Calculator.apk (better UI)
SemcCalender.apk (better UI)
SemcClock.apk (better UI & more function)
SemcNotes.apk
Find SystemUI (notification bar with quick panel) that suite you the best and flash or use mind.
Why not flash all xperia s app?
Phone and contact is fast already (Xperia S phone and contact is slower)
Home (much smoother with stock launcher = laggy with Xperia S or Modified GX)
Messaging (good enough)
Gallery (use stock gallery for Bravia Engine, AOSP gallery for speed)
Music (Walkman use too much space in system and it's not very useful)
5. Best Launcher?
-Stock launcher
-Nova launcher
-Apex launcher
6. Best app?
-AOSP gallery (good look, pretty fast)
-Quickpic (build for speed)
-Google Play Music (free and clean UI)
-Poweramp (best sound quality and nice UI)
-MX player (easily the best)
7. Important
*Flash new Andreno lib
*Flash emoji font enabler if you want to view emoji
*If you use social app, try to move it from data\app to system\app. That way, you will free more space in internel memory.
Why? You're not gonna remove it because you use it everyday. There are alot of free space in system\app\ so why not use it.
*Go to settings - developers otions - window animation scale .5x - transition animation scale .5x. (I'm 100% sure that you will feel that your phone is snappier)
..................................................................................... Backgroud process limit at most 3 app (I'm sure that you always kill apps after you used it, so set it to 3. That way, you don't have to kill all the time) (remember to set it after reboot)
8. Uninstall unused app or once a month!!
9. Don't even use tweak (Personally, I don't see any differences)
10. Press thank if you think it's helpful.
Look at the attachment! I took a screen shot after reboot and kill some process (you will be impress)
Also include my modified systemUI.apk (If you like)
I think a brief description of each apk would be useful for some users in case they remove something they want to keep.
Also, don't the oma*.apk files let you download Internet/MMS settings from your provider? Or have I got that wrong?
Oh and on the arc 587 build Sony fixed the Calendar widget to show all-day events which you will lose if you flash the Xperia S v2 version of Calendar.apk - I've had this happen to me before.

in fact, is the description of the users delete files or even what it takes
good thread, i personally didnt remove stuff which normally you do not see running on services. theres no harm in keeping them like widgets and others which doesnt really make your phone slow (unless you use them) and you keep your rom as close to stock as possible. ofcourse unless you need some system apps space, which then you can use to transfer market apps to system apps to create more data app space.

Oma is not very useful for me because I only need to fill 3 line in order to get internet work. I forgot about calendar since I rarely use Calender widget.
Hey OP,
May I know how many user apps installed on your device? Helluva lot free ram you got there.. That way the android system can allocate more memory to the most used app imo..
Nice share dude

You should note there, that this is ICS only.
Xperia S apps will not work on GB.
And yes, I use rooted (personally edited and tweaked) 4.0.2.A.0.62, because ICS is fully crap.
how to move aplication from data/app to system/app?? because i got error when move it.

That time maybe 10 because I just flash the stock ROM. It is often 190 - 210 after a fresh reboot. If you kill some app that run in background like some Google services you will get about 210+

If you use root explorer. First, go to data/app and press the r/o to change it to r/w. Then move your app to system/app. Done!

If you use PC companion to repair your device, you need to flash .431 kernel, root and flash .5... kernel again. Or unlock the boot loader, put ADV stock kernel and flash root by CWM. Repair your phone with PC Companion will hard reset and reflash your phone firmware. So you need to root again.
Very good tips!
I followed your thread and this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1089470
Now my Arc S is working super good and I'm very pleased.
I just unninstaled the Task Killer because I don't need it anymore, everything is working perfect :good:
Thanks for this!
can work on GB base stock?

Also need to get rid of exchange services.
In TWRP mount system and delete folders of apps that you want to remove in /system/app and /systen/priv-app.

Tell me the .apk name in /system/app and I can add (case sensitive)
I didn't added it first because I thought that would be better to have at least one calendar app, but "hey, anyone can download his favorite calendar app on google play later", but the ROM I'm currently using don't have google calendar, so... I need the .apk name XD

I think that may be some conflict with another messaging app, I only tested this on stock rom without any other messaging app installed, you can try install the .apk inside the .zip as a normal app
Updated
Now it also removes the files if they are on system/priv-app instead of system/app
also added google calendar (CalendarGooglePrebuilt.apk) and messenger (PrebuiltBugle.apk)

I think you should not remove "EmergencyModeService" because without that, Ultra Power Saving Mode won't work. Otherwise, for people who do not use it, it can be removed.

I think you should not remove "EmergencyModeService" because without that, Ultra Power Saving Mode won't work. Otherwise, for people who do not use it, it can be removed.

There are two ways out of this.
1. Unblock the contacts app
This option should be self-explainatory, but in case you don't know watch the video on how to do that.
2. Find an alternative
There is a site called ApkMirror. Go on there and download and install Google's contacts app.
