Root Hydro Edge Software bloat

[starxpilot]

Since we don't have our own guide as of yet...I wonder what applications, are 'safe to remove' from this device without repercussions. I've already been dealt a nasty hand by LG for removing certain applications that cause the phone to brick. Luckily, we have enough recoveries to go through Armageddon.

Since it's a direct upgrade, successor, replacement for the original Hydro, I'm looking at this thread here...

A lot of those applications appear once again on the Edge, with the occasional one or two removed, or having been replaced by something completely different.

Here is a list of all the applications found under Device, system/app

I'll be happy to make a list of safe to remove apps after I get a copy of all the stock files from System/app as I've already removed a good chunk of them without problems

Never mind got S2 instead. Sorry.

So I have been going through the forums and googled all kinds of thing, wondering if anyone had a list of safe to remove apps. Thanks

(Edit) removed all boost apps no problems. Freed up tons of space. Left Google search obviously, and Google setting.

Apps installed.
