It`s very important, that you make a Backup of your System Apps, before you play around with/delete Them. A very easy Way, in my Opinion, is to use the Flashtool. get it here:
http://androxyde.github.com/Flashtool/
CREDITS for this great Flashtool goes to: Bin4ry and Androxyde
Now root your Device by using this Guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10881307&postcount=5
(you`ll find also Guides for:clean SE Junk/ Costumize/ Optimize there)
CREDITS for this guide go to: Crowds
Now you should see this: (see the first attached Pic)
1. get SU rights:
2. press under Advanced -> Backup System Apps
well done! you juste have backuped your System Apps
3.To flash them all again, press APK Installer, select the Source Folder, flash.
if you need only some apk`s, you`ll find them in the Folder: Flashtool-> custom-> apps_saved
this works with deodexed and odexed ROMS !!!
if you Backup your system Apps from a Odexed Rom,
the apk AND the odex file will be saved. (see second attached Pic)
if you don`t know what deodexed/odexed means, here a short explenation from ranjan.alva (Thank him):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21366939&postcount=1
And if the rom is Odexed?
Great tip. I usually use SystemApp Remover or Titanium Backup. Will try this.
@ ChavitoArg
I think, you should backup your System Apps when you are the next Time on Original SE. Then you will have ALL Apk's .

nice! thx for the tip, I hated to use titanium backup, too slow... as a regular rom flasher its useful to know this trick, thx again

You did not understand what i say, you know what is odexed?
@ Chavito Arg
I know what odexed means my friend and if i didn`t, we live in a World with Google and Wikipedia . But i have really no experience on this issue. So report us of your knowledge.

If a rom is odexed, like MiniCM. the system apps are EXAMPLEAPP.apk and EXAMPLEAPP.odex , has two files for each app. and the odex file is heavier than the apk, if you delete just the apk you are noth deleting the odex file, and no saving any space. I hope you understand me
get it chavito ...
Edit:
this works also with odexed ROMS !!!
if you Backup your system Apps from a Odexed Rom,
the apk AND the odex file will be saved. (see attached Pic)

Does that mean you don't know where flashtool is actually installed on your system?
If you know in which folder Flashtool is located you should still have a /custom subfolder with an /apps_saved folder in there.
A simple search for custom on your filesystem may already yield the correct folder.

ok, got it! under mac it is saved within the flashtool.app itself- you get access via "show package contents" and eventually you will find a folder according to your build which contains all the .apk etc.

This is for those of you who like Samsung stock stuff.
I've created a deodexed ROM from stock XWKL1 firmware.
Its rooted with ChainsDD and BusyBox added.
The freedom of custom with the stock touch...enjoy!
Installation instructions :
1. Copy the ZIP to your sdcard
2. Flash via CWM Recovery.
3. Do a wipe data/factory reset if need.
4. Enjoy
Download the ZIP here.
Hope it helps people

Main problems I had when trying to deodex XWKL1 with dsixda:
Voice Search, Maps, and Phonesky (the new name for the Market APK) would not deodex. This was solvable by:
Pulling VoiceSearch.apk from XXKI3
Pulling the updated Market APK from a working device and replacing Phonesky.apk with it
I didn't bother with Maps because it can be installed from the Market
The remaining issue I have:
On my device, when I press the Back button to exit from video playback, the video player hangs instead of exiting. It seems to be specific to my attempt at deodexing with dsixda.
Edit - Two major issues with your post:
1) You should state the base in the thread title
2) Your release is broken - you didn't bother to rectify the failure of the Market APK to deodex, and as a result, there is no Market in it.
However video playback is working, so it's time to figure out why that isn't working on my own deodexed device.
thx for the f/back, need to wait for market fix first b4 using this

One bug got to be known today is that Phonesky.apk (Market) failed to deodex and it is not included in the ROM. However, you can install market manually. See attached file.

CWM Updater script?

Could anyone please provide me the CWM updater script found in this deodexed rom?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
I'm posting this question here in the hopes that someone will be kind enough to help me since I don't have the post count to post in the development section.
I installed the omega ROM and really like it but I need the Email.apk that is not included in this ROM. When I copy the Email.apk from other 2.3.6 stock based ROMs the app constantly FCs. Does anybody have an Email.apk and/or Email.odex that will work with this ROM.
Thanks for your help.
Cheers!!
Should i suggest a thing?
First backup your system.then go flash any rom which has that that email.apk.
Then open titanihm backup and backup the email app. Then go to cwm recovery and restore omega rom and then restore the app again via titanium backup. This shud work
. If it doesnt work then tell me. I will upload the email apk.

Thanks for your response. I tried your suggestion but it still FCs as soon as the phone powers up.
I think it's because the omega rom is odexed and all the 2.3.6 based roms that I have are deodexed.
When I look at the /system/app directory all system apps have an .apk and a corresponding .odex file of each application.
If you have a 2.3.6 odex version of Email.apk I would really appreciate it if you could upload it.
Thanks for your help!!
Here you go

Did you extract the files on your computer first and then add them to system/app?
Did you reboot your phone after putting the files there?

I have some bloatware i wanna remove, like 'Lets golf hd, 'fun&downloads' and a couple of more.
But it seems like i Titanium backup cant find the apk's. I run ICS 4.0.4 rooted and unlocked bootloader, and use explorer to system dir, looking through 'system/app' No apk's
But if i look on 'vendor/app' i see the apk's there. So i copied the apk's to 'system/app', but no luck

Thanks, helped a little bit. But not totally. Some progs are back after reboot. And if i wanna restore them and place them on SD they stop working.
But Still i wonder what is wrong here? Why is it like this? Some screw up from Android Dev? Or Sony?
And i did search, for 2 whole days before i made this post, google, xda, sony forum.
Still your suggestion did not show up in my searches.
But do u suggest we shall not post if our searches does not reach what other ppl find?
XDA is kinda big, there is a lot answers, ..and questions
So for your information, i will still post questions in the Neo section if i do not find it in the Neo section But i promise i will not post it in the ARC section
And to the case: The thread u suggested worked, to a limit. not 100% for my needs.
But for other with a Neo like me, that wanna go through this, please try the link codephus suggested: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26758586#post26758586
Also the App can be found in google play:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...leanup.Inteks.org&feature=search_result&hl=en
Sony Neo and ICS 4..4 are easy: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26980804&postcount=3
well i was trying to encourage others towards doing a through search before they post
anyway, this might sound stupid and you might tried it before but: have you tried flashing 4.0.4 ftf without the "vendor.sin"?

Remove bloatware
Hi @all!
I'm running Android 4.0.4 rooted on locked bootloader Xperia Neo.
Don't know what's the matter but it seems that bloatware in /system/vendor/app/ (such as 'Fun & Downloads', 'Let's Golf', etc) cannot be deleted.
I tried to remove those packages from SManager, Es Explorer and Root Uninstaller with root permission but they just refuse (it gives an error).
Any idea?? How did you remove them and why I cannot?
Tnx a lot!

So, use Root Explorer and navigate to folder and press Mount R-W button, than you ll be able to delete it.

Hmmm. It's not hard to flash the firmware again. Backup your apps with titanium backup. Reflash clean firmware and root it. Restore your files again. Then you should be having the My Files application.

Use root explorer. Copy both files in system/app. Paste there. Then search for the files and set correct permission. I just did that. And it worked fine once you reboot the device.
