Did you delete apps from system/app or moved to /data/app and then uninstalled it?
The correct way to remove default apps is to move then from system/app to data/app, reboot and the uninstall it opening settings/manage applications.
If you just deleted apps from system, its better to repair your phone with SEUS and remove stock apps with correct way. Believe me, I removed apps before without uninstalling then and system was sucking my battery very fast. Just make a repair, uninstalled things correctly and now my phone is so much better.
Wat is the need of removing the app make backup of that and replace wid the android default calendar...

Yes i think i have deleted directly from System/app :-(
but i think there is a way to install it with ADB no?
maybe i can put original SE calendar and remove again the correct way?
I didn't try it, but I think u can...

Did the "rm /system/app/Candendar.apk" and wondered why it didn't work.
The system keeps some files in memory and they survive the "rm" command. Fixed this by doing;
1. Setting> Applications > Manage Applications and removing all calendar named apps, (there were about 4 still including com.sonyericsson.calandar!)
2. Restart phone.
3. Copy standard Calendar and CalandarProvider across (I used scp and dropbear, you could do the same with adb or rootexplorer) Files are here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9434204&postcount=2
4. Restart phone. (I didn't need to run the "install" command, files were "chmod 644" already)
Now have the standard calendar rather than the SE calendar!
Solved ! thanks
I just don't like the minicm7 pro messaging app .... It is a GREAT ROM though
I don't like it because when I tap "To", it doesn't let me to choose recipient from my contact book but instead I need to type the recipient number myself and it will give some suggestion.
Is there anyway I can do this? Or I just stuck to it forever? I don't want to use messaging app from market though....
And If I can use 2.1 stock messaging app please give me the link for it because I don't have it, Thanks.
yes you can
from the STOCK ROM extract the Mms.apk file
and then use app installer to install Mms.apk (from stock) on your custom ROM
and it should install
this is what i did on my mini cm7 pro messaging app, i took the Mms.apk from Sonystyle and installed it on my mini cm7 pro v21
the Mms.apk can be found in system/app/Mms.apk
I don't like it because when I tap "To", it doesn't let me to choose recipient from my contact book but instead I need to type the recipient number myself and it will give some suggestion.

I tried using this guy messaging app - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9296291&postcount=4

to to install it from sdcard instead of inside system files, have Read Write enabled
if that doesnt work then you may need to sign the .apk file (normally you sign it if you edited the .apk)

What do you mean by "sign the apk" ?
Edit: I tried installing it from sdcard, system/app is set to r/w, but still receive this message "Application not installed".
Can please upload the apk you took from Sonystyle? Let me try that one....

1st Backup Mms.apk from /system/app/Mms.apk to sdcard
Then delete Mms.apk from /system/app (using file manager e.g root explorer
then from sdcard (using app installer or root explorer) Install mms_signed.apk
Emm... Thanks
But isn't that the original MiniCm7 pro mms apk? I want to use the 2.1 stock messaging app...

I am using the dsixda kitchen to build ROMs for my Desire HD. I have built a few ROMs now and on the whole they have worked OK. However there area few apps that are out of date and a few I would like by default. I know I can download the majority of them from the market but I would like them just there by default. I know apps get updated all the time so I will never get perfection so bear with me.
I have sucessfully added ASTRO, HandyCalc, ROM Manager SMS Backup & Restore and VISIONary+ and these work fine. I have also updated the .apk's for Facebook to 1.8.1, Google Maps to 6.0.3, Twitter to 3.0.0, YouTube to 2.3.4 & GMail to 2.3.5.2.
Now heres my problem - If I try to update Adobe Reader to 10.1.1 by replacing the AdobeReader.apk with the latest one it doesn't work. Once the ROM is built and installed I can see the .apk is there in /system/app however there is no icon in All Apps for Adobe Reader and I can't open .pdf's.
I also use Google Goggles & Skype, however if I add these .apk's to the ROM they appear to be installed and start OK however Goggles crashes as soon as the camera is started from the app and Skype lets you run through the initial setup but then says the app needs reinstalling.
Is there something I am missing or are there apps that can't be updated and others that can't be included in ROMs?

My guess is your using these apps in /system/app? If so keep in mind that most apps are built for /data/App. Sometimes applications act funny on system. If they are not on the system and on the data then that's just strange.

I was looking into that but I thought you needed extra script commands to get these recognised during 1st-time boot? At the moment I have these apps installed via the market, however I can't find where they are on the phone - I am using Astro to view/search and can't find the updated Adobe Reader, however it is installed.
I think I might be missing some fundamental stuff here...

/data/app
/data/app-private
Then you can also check and see if installed to the sdcard maybe?
/data is empty. On the sdcard there is an 'Android' folder and in here is a /data folder that has other folders (com.android.providers.media, com.facebook.katana, com.google.android.apps.books, com.google.android.apps.maps).
I have enabled hidden files in Astro (but it could be a limitation of Astro?). Astro has an application backup option that allows me to backup any of these added applications into .apk files and then restore them later.
Andy
/data shows empty when you try and view it with astro...
Root Explorer (and some others I'm sure) will show everything in there...

Thanks Going to be rebuilding shortly
I found this post whilst searching - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=654739#
In there FireSokar mentions adding some lines to the update script. For the Desire HD it is an updater-script and the format/syntax is different can someone tell me what I need to add to the updater-script and where it should be put (at the very end, somewhere in the middle etc?)
Thanks

After flashing regular MiniCM9 there are only left ~11 MB in the System ROM internal memory, so I wanted to free up some space. Other thing that I had in mind is that android is running many background apps that I don't use. And by removing them, there is also freeing up some RAM.
Before starting anything make CWM backup.
You can use one of the 3 methods to remove unwanted apps:
a) in windows, you can open downloaded MiniCM9-3.0.XXX.zip with WinRar or 7zip and remove unwanted apps in system/app folder. After that move modified MiniCM9-3.0.XXX.zip to sdcard and flash via CWM,
b) using a Titanium Backup app and delete them there, OR
c) use Root Explorer app and navigate to system/app and remove unwanted apps.
I always delete following apps that I don't use. Browse the list, and delete ones that suits you:
ApplicationsProvider.apk - Provides the list of installed apps to Play. Fetches the list of applications installed on the phone to provide search suggestions.
Browser.apk - There are better alternatives such as Opera or Boat Browser
CMUpdateNotify.apk - I am really often on xda and checking nAa's updates, so i don't need update notifications on my phone. i always delete this to save extra 2,3 MB of RAM (sorry nAa )
DSPManager.apk - As stated multiple times across forums, it often drains battery, runs in background, using 3-5 MB, and i can't really see any difference in playing music with/without it. There are better fixes for audio. Search for paul-xxx audio fix for ics.
Email.apk - i dont use pop mail accounts so i always delete this. But if you are using pop mail, there are better alternatives like K-9.
Exchange.apk - Email transport system. If you dont use email.apk it is safe to remove this.
FileManager.apk - I use RootExplorer as alternative.
Galaxy4.apk - This is one of ICS Live wallpapers, and i really doubt that anyone is using them on our phones, remove this!
HoloSpiralWallpaper.apk - Another one!
LatinIME.apk - On screen keyboard. You can remove this if you don't use qwerty software keyboard. I found it bit difficult to use it on our small screens, so feel free do delete it if you don't use it.
LiveWallpapers.apk - This really don't need further explanations..
LiveWallpapersPicker.apk - same here...
MagicSmokeWallpapers.apk - again...
NoiseField.apk - this is a bubble Live Wallpaper.
PhaseBeam.apk - again live wallpaper
PicoTts.apk - Text To Speech, remove it if you don't use it.
QuickSearchBox.apk - Google Search Box that can be placed in homescreens, i really don't use this.
SpeechRecorder.apk
Stk.apk - SIM Tool Kit
Trebuchet.apk - Pretty slow and bloated launcher. If you really want ICS look, use Apex Launcher Instead. But if you want fastest performance and lowest memory usage i recommend LauncherPro which is by far smoothest and fastest launcher out there. Too bad it is bit outdated.
UserDictionaryProvider.apk - Dictionary for word prediction on keyboards. Needeed for LatinIME.apk. Do not remove this if you are using software qwerty keyboard (LatinIme.apk)
VoiceDialer.apk - I don't use this.
VpnDialogs.apk - I don't use vpn
SoundRecorder.apk
There are more apps that can be safely removed, this is just my standard 'setup'. At start, rom was ~108 MB in size, and after removing this apps got to 93 MB.
Eventually I will update this post, with Gapps removable applications and their descriptions.
Feel free to post your feedback.
Thank you!
thanks mate. i must add about dps manager is that it is used by apollo to tune the music.but hell i dont use it in anyway so i deleted it as well.
you forgot to add geniewidget
Some of the optional removes (depends on user). I dont use and I always delete them.
GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk and GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk and the one associated with syncing your browser (i think ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter.apk) if you dont use account sync option. I always backup my data locally and hence I always remove these. BTW these also run in the background always
Market Updater (you may not be able to update market app automatically. For me thats OK)
My Uploads (always runs in background)
downloads.apk
Calculator.apk if you use a different calculator.
GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk
talk.apk
Most of these apps are from gapps and most of them always run in background
I also remove default android keyboard as I always use swype

that shouldn't be related to any of this apk-s removed. i have removed listed ones, and much more, and i'm not having this problem.
first try to clear market data, and if that doesn't help, try flashing gapps again, and if that fails too, try flashing original minicm9 again (your data will be saved)
Thanks! I deleted a lot of things, but I can't delete DSP Manager! I deleted it before, but today I installed the "notification bar fix" to ICS and it reinstalled DSP and some other applications alone...

what "notification bar fix" are you referring to?
if it flashes those unwanted .apk-s you can again delete them from system/app with root explorer.
Google Feedback.apk can be deleted too
CM9 byNaA/XDA Premium
Use Link2SD
The best way to safely remove system applications is to use Link2SD.
I've been using that since a year; never had a problem. You can batch uninstall, move to SD card, clear cache, freeze, sort, etc.
One of the best apps available on Play Store and its free!

I'm using MiniCM9 and I uninstalled DSP Manager successfully once, but I had to use the "Make It Faster" by roobeyn because the phone hangs sometimes and that helps. Unfortunately that fix make your notification bar disappear and you have to use the "StatusbarOriginalFix". After all, it installed DSP again and I can't uninstall!
I tried with root uninstaller, SManager ads and with File Manager. The Only option I have is to "force close".
Sorry for my bad english.
I recommend install the TouchPal after erase the keyboard

hm, did you actually read my first post? have you tried deleting it with root explorer?
and second thing - "Make It Faster" by roobeyn is made for MiniCM9 - 3.0.1.
MIUI is known for it's bloatware and there are some of us who want the best of both worlds, a simple ROM with good looks.... so here comes Titanium Backup (or any other Root Uninstaller app) to the rescue! I've tested deleting all these apps and used the ROM for quite some time without any FCs or bugs. This is the list on MIUI v6 5.1.9 (9th January 2015 Update).

of course this is safe here, but some of the following may be useful for someone, so be sure what the following apks are for, before deleting them Btw in case of any problems, you can always extract the apk's you deleted from the miui zip, put them back in system/app or system/priv-app folders, correct permissions, and reboot.. easy )

If you have the root, you can also delete the browser app and the launcher without any problems
If someone updates to Miui v7 will face system advertisements in miui Music and some others apps. it is quite annoying
You are save to remove it. Follow this guide: http://en.miui.com/thread-190513-1-1.html
It is safe to remove SystemAdSolution.apk file, clear cache. Reboot
Now, no more advertisement in miui music
I don't know why xiaomi try to push global users with the force to see their advertisements. May be they can earn something from that way. ?!
Analytics and MIUI SDK
You can also remove com.miui.analytics. It's also useless. The system Calculator app is also useless and has very less features. You can use another app instead. You can freeze MIUI SDK too if it has too much data. But DO NOT uninstall Miui SDK.
If you have a root browser, you can simply delete the /data/miui/app folder to get more space in internal memory. Don't worry as it has just the apks of pre-installed apps, not their data. Deleting them will not even uninstall those apps as their apks are in /data/app folder too.

Which device are you using?
Also tell the miui version. I hope it's not MIUI 7.2.3.0 - bloatware list for that is a little different because some important system apps are dependent on bloatware!!!
Did you also remove any app other than those specified in your quote?

I did it on redmi 1s @china dev rom.. Miui 7 version 6.5.26.... Which is parallel to 7.2.3, I think. I only unistalled listed ones... I tried first deleting apks from system/app folder... It didn't work, then unistalled systems apps in es Explorer... Didn't work... Then titanium Backup... It also did not work. Every time I faced boot loops.

I don't know much about the MIUI China ROM. I am using the Global ROM. After updating to this ROM, I uninstalled the following apps using Link2SD. Then using ES File Explorer, I removed the .odex files of uninstalled apps. Then rebooted to recovery, and just cleaned the /cache partition.
Assuming, that you are also not using Mi account, this is the list of apps I have removed (uninstalled) which were in my /system/app folder :-
*Analytics (AnalyticsCore.apk) - can be removed or you can disable the WakeupService.
*ANTHalService - (used for fitness accessories)
*Basic daydreams (BasicDreams.apk)
*BugReport - optional (keep it otherwise, you can't see the summary if any app stops unexpectedly)
*Calculator
*Mi Cloud (CloudService.apk)
*Email
*Black Hole (Galaxy4.apk) - live wallpaper
*Holo Spiral - live wallpaper
*Android Live Wallpaper (LiveWallpapers.apk)
*Magic Smoke - live wallpaper
*Uniplay service (MiLinkService.apk) - maybe required for Wi-Fi display connection
*Noise Field - live wallpaper
*Phase Beam - live wallpaper
*Photo screensavers (PhotoTable.apk)
*PicoTTS - text to speech engine
*Battery Saver (PowerKeeper.apk)
*Security Service Plugin (SecurityAdd.apk)
*SystemAdSolution
*XiaomiAccount (IMPORTANT: This app is required when Android boots for the first time. So if you have removed/disabled this app after you have finished setting up Android for the first time, do not factory reset or erase /data till this app is installed again.)
*Xiaomi Services Framework - DO NOT REMOVE (otherwise Phone app gets stuck in crash-loop)
/system/priv-app removed apps :-
*Cloud Backup (for apps backup to Mi account)
*Find Device - required by Mi account app (same instructions are applicable as for XiaomiAccount app above )
*mipub - purpose is unknown, removed it
*YellowPage - DO NOT REMOVE (otherwise you cannot open contact details in Contacts and Dialer app)
It is recommended that you flash the update as-it-is, then uninstall apps using Link2SD, then clean up the dalvik-cache from Link2SD and reboot phone. Then you can also delete .odex files of removed apps in /system/app and /system/priv-app folder using ES File Explorer and also delete /data/miui/app folder.
If you have some other apps in China ROM, please give the list of installed system apps and system priv-apps.

I don't know much about the MIUI China ROM. I am using the Global ROM. After updating to this ROM, I uninstalled the following apps using Link2SD. Then using ES File Explorer, I removed the .odex files of uninstalled apps. Then rebooted to recovery, and just cleaned the /cache partition.
Assuming, that you are also not using Mi account, this is the list of apps I have removed (uninstalled) which were in my /system/app folder :-
*Analytics (AnalyticsCore.apk) - can be removed or you can disable the WakeupService.
*ANTHalService - (used for fitness accessories)
*Basic daydreams (BasicDreams.apk)
*BugReport - optional (keep it otherwise, you can't see the summary if any app stops unexpectedly)
*Calculator
*Mi Cloud (CloudService.apk)
*Email
*Black Hole (Galaxy4.apk) - live wallpaper
*Holo Spiral - live wallpaper
*Android Live Wallpaper (LiveWallpapers.apk)
*Magic Smoke - live wallpaper
*Uniplay service (MiLinkService.apk) - maybe required for Wi-Fi display connection
*Noise Field - live wallpaper
*Phase Beam - live wallpaper
*Photo screensavers (PhotoTable.apk)
*PicoTTS - text to speech engine
*Battery Saver (PowerKeeper.apk)
*Security Service Plugin (SecurityAdd.apk)
*SystemAdSolution
*XiaomiAccount (IMPORTANT: This app is required when Android boots for the first time. So if you have removed/disabled this app after you have finished setting up Android for the first time, do not factory reset or erase /data till this app is installed again.)
*Xiaomi Services Framework - DO NOT REMOVE (otherwise Phone app gets stuck in crash-loop)
/system/priv-app removed apps :-
*Cloud Backup (for apps backup to Mi account)
*Find Device - required by Mi account app (same instructions are applicable as for XiaomiAccount app above )
*mipub - purpose is unknown, removed it
*YellowPage - DO NOT REMOVE (otherwise you cannot open contact details in Contacts and Dialer app)

Thanks for your valuable response, I will try it for sure. You told "it is recommended to flash update as-it-is" which update? Do I need to flash something before doing it.
Please verify the steps I have to perform-
1. Using link2sd Uninstall listed apps
2. Then go to system/app in es Explorer and delete. odex file of uninstalled apps
3. Clear cache and dalvik cache by link2sd.
4. Clear Cache and dalvik cache in recovery and reboot.
I need to sign off MI account if I am using before performing these steps.
Correct me if any step I missed or messed..

No. You have gone a bit wrong.
"By 'update flashing', I meant the ROM update.zip file as it is available for download from the MI website without any apk file deleted. I just mentioned it because you said that you already tried deleting apks from the update before flashing."
The jist of the above quoted text is that : You need to have the untampered ROM to be installed on the device, that is, one in which no system APK has been removed or no system app has been uninstalled.
If you have already signed up for an Mi Account and want it to be active on your device, you must not remove the following apps.
Mi Cloud (CloudService.apk)
Mi Account (XiaomiAccount.apk)
Find device
Cloud backup - Removal of CloudBackup will stop apps from being backed up to Mi Cloud
After clearing dalvik-cache in Link2SD, you just have to clear cache in recovery, NOT the dalvik-cache again.
Aren't you using this latest MIUI China ROM?

I haven't tried MIUI 8. But maybe I can help. Check all these things :-
1. Delete unwanted apks from /system/app and /system/priv-app along with the .odex files.
2. See if any unwanted apks are also present in /data/app. Some Xiaomi and Google apps are also located in /data/miui/app which are installed after selecting phone locale. However you can delete this folder before to prevent the unwanted installation.
3. DON'T delete *XiaomiAccount.apk otherwise you can't complete phone setup.
4. When phone boots for the first time after flashing ROM, don't provide internet access. First complete the setup and check if any removed apps are installed again and then connect to internet to add accounts, .etc. because I had once noticed that missing apps are automatically downloaded and installed in the background by some hidden app in the system.
If above steps don't work, I have another tough method.
