Root Removing bloatware

Hi,

I have just rooted my Ace - mainly to free up space on the internal memory as I'm continually getting the 'low on memory' message, even though I don't have that many apps installed.

Anyway, I have now installed Titanium Backup, and have backed up. I am now stuck as I cannot find a definitive list of which pre-installed apps and other bloatware is safe to uninstall.

I've googled this and searched this site, but I can't really find anything of much use.

Does anybody have any ideas of what I can uninstall, or can point me in the right direction?

I have read that this can be done just by flashing a different non-stock rom, but as I'm very new to rooting, I'm not sure if I should be attempting that yet?

Any help would be appreciated.
 
If you want to remove bloatware, use titanium backup or root explorer apps. But if your issue is low internal memory problem, that will not be solved by removing system apps, their partition is different. Someone correct me if i am wrong here.

If you want to get extra internal memory, there are a few methods for that, since now you are rooted you can actually free up your internal memory completely and instead use sd card as internal memory. There are a few methods to do that. It basically includes creating an ext format partition on your sd card and then use the methods given in link to use that partition as internal memory.
