Obviously the stock ones, i followed a suggested list of apps that could be deleted on the cyanogen mod forums, but i deleted com.android.inputmethod.latin
com.google.android.latinimetutorial

and kept getting a FC so i just wondered if anybody had a comprehensive list as all the safe apps i could remove. I want to remove as many as possible but still be able to have OTA updates then freeze the ones left over. Please and thank YOU:cool:
 
I think I've seen that list and its the only one I've found.. pay attention however to anything google related. Most of them can be removed but may cause errors with other google apps if you remove them. In this case those 2 apps are the default on screen keyboard so you're bound to get a bunch of problems if you don't have your hardware keyboard opened and maybe then some...
 
so far I have removed the following with no ill effects...

Email
My Files
Google Books/Play Books
Sprint Mobile Wallet
Thinkfree Office
Protips
Smart Device Manager

im sure theres more but if theres a list i havent seen it so this is just what i know we dont need...

i used JRummy's ROM TOOLBOX to uninstall, then just reboot and good to go. make a nandroid backup before you delete system apps, just in case...
