So, what's up guys?
Since our L3 is a low end device, I started thinking on how to get things running faster and de-bloat our phones. So... I managed to rip CM9 to it's slimmest point.
What do I get by doing this?
- Approx. 45 MB free (depends on what apps did you delete)
- Faster boot
- Better perfomance (If you flash my slim gapps)
- Lots of free ram! :good:
Before you start, think that every app, every folder and every file that you could possibly delete, has a designed function. Also, this tutorial was written for advanced Android users. Proceed with caution.
Things we'll need...
- WinRAR
- Notepad++
- Our favorite apk's to replace the stock CM9 apps
- Patience
- A beer / Coffee (it's your choice :good
Click to expand...

Let's-a-go!
First, you need a rom to work with. Download the latest CM9 nightly from here.
Got it?
Let's work.
Once you got your rom, unzip it.

As you can see, this nightly weights 169MB
Now we can start deleting useless stuff.
/system/
The first thing we'll remove is Android's TTS folder (Text-to-speech synthesizing). Now we've got 6,15MB free.

/system/app/
Inside this dir. you'll find all the system side apps. Since you can't delete everything, I wrote a short list with the "safe-to-remove-apps"
* = Remove ONLY IF YOU HAVE ANOTHER APP TO REPLACE WITH.
X = You should REALLY remove this.
----------------------------------------------------------
* Apollo.apk - Music player
* Browser.apk - I Personally recommend NakedBrowser to replace it
Calculator.apk
* Camera.apk - Most Play Store camera apps doesn't support camcorder, so it's your choice.
X CMUpdater.apk - Cyanogenmod's update reminder (pretty useless)
X CMWallpapers.apk
X Development.apk - Dev's toolkit (useless for dumb users like me)
X DSPManager.apk - Just audio effects
X Email.apk
X Exchange.apk
X Galaxy4.apk
* Gallery2.apk - CM's gallery app seems to be very laggy. You can use QuickPick instead.
X HoloSpiralWallpaper.apk
X LiveWallpapers.apk
X LiveWallpaperspicker.apk
X MagicSmokeWallpapers.apk
X NoiseField.apk
X PhaseBeam.apk
X PicoTTS.apk - Text to speech engine (You should also remove "/system/tts/" folder)
X QuickSearchBox.apk - Search widget
SoundRecorder.apk
X SpareParts.apk
X STK.apk - Sim Toolkit (depending on you region, this is TOTALLY useless and annoying)
Term.apk - Terminal emulator (many people doesn't even know what is this)
X Trebuchet.apk - Default CM launcher. Laggy and less customizable. Get your favorite launcher. I personally recomend you Smart Launcher!.
X VideoEditor.apk
X VisualizationWallpapers.apk
X VoiceDialer.apk

If you love using your favorite song as ringtone like me, you should remove stock ringtones. Yeah, there's 9MB wasted on crappy ringtones.

Delete "config" folder. What is it for? Offline Google Now. This one wastes a lot of ram.

FINISH IT!
That's it, you finished the slimming process. What now?
Repack your rom, zip format, normal compression.
Flash your kernel, flash your rom, and flash my slim gapps.

This is the end... my only friend, the end... ♪
If you have a correction, suggestion, or you just want to yell somebody, post down here.
OPTIONAL BUT HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
- Light plus updated Google Apps to flash with your CM9! Includes Play Store 4.2.9
DOWNLOAD!
- TouchWiz Task Manager! End all those ram-eater apps!
DOWNLOAD!
- Adrenaline Boost Script! Clear your system caches and make your L3 fly!
DOWNLOAD!
Tips for better perfomance!
0. [Optional, highly recommended] Get in CWM recovery and wipe cache, dalvik cache and battery stats!
1. Go to settings > apps > running and stop every app. The only things that you should have running are settings process and android keyboard, like this.
2. Then, tap in "show cached processes". A huge list of apps may appear, stop / close them all (except for your home launcher and android system's process)
3. [Optional] Use adrenaline boost script to free wasted ram.
4. [Strictly necessary!] enjoy your free ram! :victory:

Thanks, that's good for me! Does this app runs as a system service or does it modify the build.prop?
deep appreciations darknessx10. i was facing symlink errors during cm10 installation on defy. slimming the rom according to your guide solved my problem.
if anybody else encountered with the following error, this guide is a way to overcome the problem.

Great tut,have do it on different roms(jb 4.3-l5 e610)and its perfect,now my slimbean rom is more slimmer,lol.thanx
GREEEETZ!!!!
Nice!!
Thanks for the tutorial mate!
When I first saw the thread's title, I expect slimming the ROM like those on ICS Slim ROMs (which only have 45-50MBs only), but after doing this, it only reduced from 120~MB to 90~MB.
30~MB is OK, I guess, but I think there are more useless craps that can be deleted out there...
Anyways, thanks again! Re-flashing my Modified Personal L3 CM9 ROM is quite handy now!
Why would this increase RAM/speed up the phone? You're just deleting a few files... I don't get it?
A lil bit,because the there things deleted which in normal case running in backround,i have noticed more free ram,30-50 mb more than before.
GREEEETZ!!!
Here's Why...

If you are using Greenify, you'll probably see those System Apps (like Voice Dialer) on system background, and it adds an additional RAM usage. Others, like the video folder and other stuff, are pretty much done to flash the ROM quite faster, I guess...? Oh yeah, and obviously reduces MBs for uploading... my guess again...?
I'm researching on that /system/src/srec/config and as of now I don't have an idea what it does that relates on the OP (Offline Google...?). So, can someone shed some light and share a link for that directory and how is it used?
There are a lot of apps that run in background, like Google Hangouts (aka Talk). No matter how many times you try to close them, they will start running again. So, if you delete those apps, you obviously will get free ram :good:
EDIT: Also, why would you have +10mb of android useless videos? lol

This ROM is based on the 10b official LG Europe release.
Fully tweaked and modded in order to fit my needs
Nearly every apk is edited in order to get rid of these bad LG colours and settings. This was hard work and took a long testing/flashing time.
If you want to support me please donate!
If you want to use this ROM as base for own ROMs please always put me into the credits! There are many Pays-ROMs in the wild simply relabed without credits, don't be like this.

If you want some removed apps back edit my paysscript.sh script in the zip file.
You just have to remove the lines of the apps you want to keep.
And if you want to remove even more apps feel free to add some lines more to it. You don't have to sign it
Don't try to set up a Facebook account or other SNS accounts, I removed that because there are much better clients, but still shows the option in the Setup Wizard, simply skip there. If you want to use SNS, just delete the SNS lines in paysscript.sh.
If a app FCs first check if you wiped correctly, second option go into the settings manager -> application -> and delete data of that app, try again.
If there is still a error please report.

I agree and by the way, you're welcome for using the init.d scripts on Nova. Which by the way, are broken and are not working. Unfortunately I forgot a detail and they aren't active. I'll fix it in Nova soon. You can't also use the mount one because your ROM isn't ext4. But it was a good effort anyway.
Lots of love to both of you, and those who like to spend time developing P970.

With the init.d scripts I know that they do not much atm, but I let them in for future editing else I will forget them.
They don't affect the ROM and thats why I didn't mentioned them yet in the features above.
I did not took so a close look at Nova but I saw you mentioned that you are working on a custom kernel.
Is there any progress?
Yeah great to see that more people is coming.
Just one question : do we need to flash before the 10b ?
I‘m asking that even you wrote that in the steps because Nova rom is 10a based and I flashed it directly from 11b lol.

You can try to flash directly, but do a wipe before, maybe you have to do a factory reset from the menu after flashing, too.
But this is the dirty way, tell me if this works for you.
I only guarantee for the clean and right way .
So when I flashed Nova, it was the “dirty“ way too ? Lol.
EDIT : why the symbols appear like that erf.

Atm I am on mobile on, so would be nice if someone else could upload it.
Also a mirror on someones server would be nice, my provider kills me if I host another ROM.
Very nice look and feel..
One small problem it seams that I can not connect to wireless network. (I come directly from Nova 1- clear cache, data and hard reset after reboot)
How can I get read of the player from notification bar?
As soon as i will receive money this month I will donate for you and Noejn also. You two really deserve some beers for pioneering work on this phone.

Thanks for mirror. I couldn't connect to wifi neither (Error when activating), so I tried flashing the experimental kernel from NOVA (Noejn). Wifi works great now, although I don't know the bad side of having this kernel.
Works great, even Wi-fi. Thank you!

Nova kernel is still very experimental.
Like I said, when I have more time I'll start from scratch and work on it properly.
By the way PaY87, this ROM is using the kernel I compiled for Nova correct?

Great job, green is m favorite color
But yes, about Wi-Fi, error occurs, when i try to turn it on. I also come from NOVA, maybe that's the problem.

When you do the fresh way with 10b there won't be any problems at all

Yes thats right.
This ROM based from Official Gingerbread 2.3.4 ROM V20N Germany.
The nandroid backup are provided by N00BY0815.
This thread posted in DEV section (as suggested by Mrs. reinbeau), because we will have planned another cooking time with this ROM, such as deodexed apk/framework, themes, kernel, and optimization.
WHAT'S INSIDE
Reformatted ramdisk to use EXT4 EMMC partition.
default.prop setup to having rooted device ro.secure=0
Original and still completed APK and odexed, nothing changed/removed.
/system/etc/flex/flex.xml: FLEX_COUNTRY_CODE="COM" to be Universal.
build.prop: ro.product.locale.language=en and ro.product.locale.region=GB,en to be English.
Zero byte of busybox replaced, and the symbolic link corrected.
Increase read ahead buffers on MMC devices: 1024.
ISSUES
This issues found by myself, as my personal review, and not everyone might have it, perhaps it has normally.
Opening Gallery seems take longer, perhaps related with lots of files, photos, and screenshots, sometimes got FC. Even it's already closed, it make the system much heavy, and looks frozen. Forced to plug USB cable and adb reboot.
I don't know why when we choose ringtone/notification sound, it show the name twice, but actually the original audio is just one file.
...
...
HOW TO FLASH
This ROM is NOT KDZ. Repackaged as .zip and flashed via CWM-Recovery, so you should have Recovery before you can use it...
Copy files P970_GB_234_V20N_signed.zip to SDCARD
Boot CWM Recovery
Wipe Data/Cache (if not wiped, might cause problem)
Advanced > Wipe Dalvik Cache (same as data/cache, might cause problem)
Install zip from SDCARD
Reboot.

@ynkamat
Regarding the message bubble design you requested. In order tho have light text on a dark bubble requires decompiling/recompiling the Whattsapp apk and editing the xmls to change the text color. I have tried that in the past, but with little success .. as Whattsapp doestnt seem to be able to recompile properly with the conventional decompiling methods. That is why you will see most mods have only black text on lighter bubbles. Not so easy to do an inverse design.

@Yorzua
I am well aware of how to decompile and recompile apks.
The issue is with the Whattsapp apk recompiling after editing the Styles.xml within the res values folder. As many themers have found, there is an issue with recompiling WhatsApp apk after performing such edits. No one seems as yet able to successfully recompile the apk and alter the message bubble text color. You are doing well if you can change the text to inverse using ApkTool.
I myself prefer APK Manager than ApkTool as its command line structure is much better laid out and has more options.

@ Youzua
Are you able to change the black bubble text to white (within the speech bubbles)....?
The trouble lays in that part of the modifications.
I have yet to see anyone successfully recompile the Whatsapp.apk (myself included) and have the changes (black text to white) actually work after finalization.
Many have tried editing both the Style.xml and Color.xml.. but the it just don't take after recompiling. The person who cracks this is going to make everyone happy.

My answer :
Wasnt you happy when i was posting all my posts off topic from the theming of your themes ?
Did i help you or i just imagine your words below ?
Without my help, you would never be able to go deeper in your own theming which comes now to a real development via xmls and smalis !
I wanted sincerely to help you but hey, like you said, you seem to be more proud or ashame for that... i still remember how you posted in my threads with rage and crap **** ...
dont count on me ever to help you and wrong if you think that we dont need help from someone else...

If you come by my thread and like my work, i ask nothing more than a little thanks for the effort.
If you dont, then just give me credits if you use it.

I just created yesterday the OP and will release properly all versions with screenshots this weekend
I'm liking the changes made, not sure about the font.
BTW, Some of the preview images hosted on imageshack are not appearing.

All feedback is always appreciated.
This thread is about Whatsapp.
Fonts are not included in the apk but comes from my rom ICS_Yorzua-Desire v2.
I'm not able to install it. I copied it to system/app . changed permissions and reboot. But nothing happens.

Works for me and others.
Do you have place in your internal memory ( /system ? )
Did you set Permissions to all ?
[example]
I love your customizations Yorzua, the best around!
BTW, I installed a modded version of tweetdeck thanks to you Yorzua and I followed the same steps as you did and it worked flawlessly.
Downloaded apk to my Nexus S SD Card, then I open *Root Explorer* (you can use any file explorer with root capabilities: Script Manager - ES FIle Explorer - ROM Toolbox) changed mounting to writeable and moved the modded app to /system/app ..... then changed permissions to file so it reads: rw--r--r--
After doing so, I rebooted my phone open the app drawer and app was there, clicked on it and it works as it is supposed to.
Can you also make a BBMessenger look-a-like..??

Hi, great theme, I like it! But why is it necessary to install your app as system app & reboot? I tried other themes which can be used by just installing them. I'm just curious.

Not mandatory but 99% of the members coming here have already the latest release installed and since whatsapp ca be moved to sd, my method to install it is more efficient.
but for a first installation, you can perfectly install it with one click

How-To change Apps in the S-PEN Shortcuts toolbar
I found, after a long time, a solution for change the Apps in the S-Pen Shortcuts toolbar. The toolbar pops up if you pushed out the S-Pen.
I don´t like and use some Apps like this stupid Game "crayon_physics" or Polaris Office...... first i have delete the Game but how i can get a new App in this Toolbar?!?
Now i have found a solution!!! And i want to teach you how you can do this!!!
First a few Screenshoots before and ofter the modding:
before (without the game):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
after modding:
So .... how can you change the toolbar? I have tested it only on a deodexed ROM!!
What do you need?
any APK Tool Manager for decombile and recombile, like this LINK
a Text Editor like Notepad++ (free)
your SystemUI.apk from your ROM
a cup cake and a coffee :laugh:
First you decombile the SystemUI.apk
Go to the folder systemui\res\values
open the arrays.xml with the Text Editor
Here you find this lines
Code:
com.diotek.mini_penmemo,com.diotek.mini_penmemo.Mini_PenMemo_Service
com.sec.android.app.snotebook,com.infraware.filemanager.FmFileTreeListActivity
com.android.calendar,com.android.calendar.AllInOneActivity
com.acrodea.crayonphysics,com.acrodea.crayonphysics.crayonphysics
air.com.adobe.pstouch.oem1,air.com.adobe.pstouch.oem1.AppEntry
com.infraware.PolarisOfficeStdForTablet,com.infraware.splash.SplashActivity
Now you need the packageName and the className of the App that you want to make in the Toolbar.
An example:
com.acrodea.crayonphysics,com.acrodea.crayonphysics.crayonphysics
packageName = com.acrodea.crayonphysics
className = com.acrodea.crayonphysics.crayonphysics
or
air.com.adobe.pstouch.oem1,air.com.adobe.pstouch.oem1.AppEntry
packageName = air.com.adobe.pstouch.oem1
className =com.adobe.pstouch.oem1.AppEntry
Now you can change the packageName & className with your wanted Apps and recombile the SystemUI.apk
Pushed the SystemUI.apk in a flash able ZIP or changed it in your ROM.
Here are a List of Apps that i have allready tested! If you have an other App please post the packageName and the className and i added it on this List!!!
Or install the ClassFinder App
Code:
[B]Contacts[/B]
packageName=com.android.contacts
className=com.android.contacts.activities.DialtactsActivity
or
[B]Contacts[/B]
packageName=com.android.contacts
className=com.android.contacts.activities.PeopleActivity
[B]ChatOn[/B]
packageName=com.sec.chaton
className=com.sec.chaton.HomeActivity
[B]Camera[/B]
packageName=com.sec.android.app.camera
className=com.sec.android.app.camera.Camera
[B]Galerie[/B]
packageName=com.sec.android.gallery3d
className=com.sec.android.gallery3d.app.Gallery
[B]Dropbox[/B]
packageName=com.dropbox.android
className=com.dropbox.android.activity.DropboxBrowser
[B]Youtube[/B]
packageName=com.google.android.youtube
className=com.google.android.youtube.app.honeycomb.Shell$HomeActivity
[B]Settings[/B]
packageName=com.android.settings
className=com.android.settings.Settings

className=air.com.adobe.pstouch.oem1.AppEntry
[B]Contacts[/B]
packageName=com.infraware.PolarisOfficeStdForTablet

Now, if we can just get it to be modified, on the fly (as an app and not required to be flashed in recovery), by specifying the apps you want to put in there....THAT will be cool and very, VERY useful.

Debloater for Sony Xperia E1
The following zip file removes every bloatware app that are using space and eating RAM.
Good If you reinstalled your phone, or updated your Firmware.
This script removes 100 bloatware total. There may be more bloatware apps, as I only used Russian Firmware, in my opinion It is the best Firmware which does not eat up RAM, or does not have any issues.
Removes .apk files and .odex files, no app will use .odex files If you remove the apps anyways
I managed to find all Bloatware apps on Xperia E1. (If not please tell me) More speed, and more Battery life!
Please hit thanks If it was helpful!
EDIT 1
-Fixed 2 incorrect paths for some bloatware apps
EDIT 2
-Added 3 more Bloatware (+4 Pre-installed app; Russian Firmware)
EDIT 3
-Added 3 more bloatware! (Thank you xezrunner!)
EDIT 4
-Fixed V3 Debloater (sigh, @Kizoky you dummy!)

Minus Settings, and USB app, You have 150+ RAM
Pre-installed System apps (After debloating)
The boot time drastically decreased, Starting from the Xperia Logo, It is usually 9-12 seconds until the animation turns darker
Note: If you sign into Google Play for the first time, immediately turn off the automatic updates!
What will be deleted?
-Update Center, All Plugins (FB, Twitter, Wikipedia, YouTube), Google Chrome, Settings wizard, Sony apps (exclude Walkman, Album, Video), Google apps (Games, Films, etc..), Sony themes, Sony wallpapers, Widgets, Data logging junks (Anonymous data for ex.), Other junk apps that eating RAM (RetailDemo.apk; ...)
File Commander is NOT DELETED (Good Bloatware app)
Workarounds:
-Album crashes everytime when setting a custom wallpaper (Download this and install it: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B2ONZFOkl3m7VzFxRzlkU0hkVk0/edit)
(I removed the Photo Editor app from the list, but If someone doesn't need it, delete it yourself, sorry) (I will edit the Permission for that If you want to delete it from Settings)
If you experience more battery drain than before, the main reason is because an app requests a function from the other app that is no longer exists on your phone
This will cause some apps call scripts/functions from an app which are using the CPU, and the result is faster Battery draining.
Trying different firmwares MAY fix this issue
Confusing Apps:
WALKMAN -- Shake control, can't disable
RetailDemo -- For local retail stores, can't disable
Performance Tweaks:
coming soon!
Debloater versions:
E1KKDebloater.zip -- This will remove everything that is useless, such as Sony apps, services, pre-installed Bloatware (exclude File Commander), System apps
E1KKDebloaterV2.zip -- Same as E1KKDebloater V1, expect that It will not remove Setup wizards, which is Factory reset friendly (Use it with FTF zip creator)
E1KKDebloaterV3.zip -- Final version (Blacklists ANTHal, Dummy apps, and apps that are needed for Factory Reset and etc. etc.)
Decrease the Battery drain:
Many apps has Wakelocks which will wake your phone from Deep Sleep mode, this means whenever you lock your phone It will drain your battery, just like when you use it regularly
To avoid this, flash the Debloater ZIP, and do a Factory reset (optional)
You need root to download Battery save apps, and "main" apps, such as Xposed.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/guide-extreme-battery-life-t3095884
This link gives you a great tutorial on how to save your battery, combining this with my debloater It will decrease the battery draining
So what does the Debloater(s) do?
-Remove .apk and .odex files from app, priv-app, and etc folders
Nothing special, this thing just saves you a lot of time
2016: V3 is fixed now, inside the zip there was an another folder which you couldn't flash (D'uh!)

the .zip file wouldn't do anything to his phone anyways. Maybe I will do a checker on the .zip file before people will use it, regardless If it is for E1 or not
Looks like I broke the wallpapers. I'll find out why, and which app needs it
Tried it, is amazing
It really did remove all the bloat, also removed the built-in "system bloat" apps, so I can remove their updated versions just like a regular app from the app drawer. So far, I only noticed the sound driver to load much faster and some apps open much faster. Nice job!

I have a feeling that this might be the cause of the problem..
Edit:
I just flashed he .zip.. and everything seems to be ok..
Live wallpapers are deleted, and the wallpapers are ok..
The phone really is a lot faster!!
edit: Hangouts and drive app were still installed(probably because they were updated, so the updated version was not deleted, while factory version was deleted).. So I needed to delete them manually
Even with RAM consuming applications like facebook and messenger, my phone is still running smooth!

Looks like the Russian Firmware version is using Photo Editor to set wallpapers. And because of this, Album app always crashes when you want to set a custom wallpaper. (Sony wallpapers are fine)
This can be fixed by downloading Photo Editor (google it; Sony Photo Editor apk)
Great tool Man thanks a lot for your hard work.

Note: there are apps running in the background, so it shows less "free ram" than usual, but this is ideal
