[Berci]

Reason to do it : debloat ( less crappy apps) / more free ram / slightly increase of battery life

Hmm this could help you http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-2/general/roll-skinny-miui-t3309873

Dont touch whetstone ( it is related to simcard and network carrier lots of apps use it just let it run in the background !)
spaces.. are part of second space feature correct me if i am wrong ?!

Hmm interesting..... I'm new to Xiaomi so how does this work?
Do I install Lucky patcher on the phone or PC?
Do you need to install the modded playstore as well?

I want to get rid of the videoplayer and galery (among others). Is galery safe to remove?

(I am on the latest EU ROM)

 

[Berci]

1.you have to install Lucky patcher on your phone ( of cours your device hase to be rooted to be able to delete some sytem apps )
2.you have to be 100% soure what you want to delete ( if you delete something else accidentally then you are screwed ,you have to flash your rom again )
3.i sougest you not to mess with playstore !
4.video player MiuiVideo.apk ( replaced with MX player pro )
gallery MiuiGallery.apk ( replaced with Galery2 from CM 13 rom)
5.yes they are safe to remove look at the list

I sougest you to mess with system apps only if you finded ,and using the best rom for your needs !
This is a short story of how to you need to read more ,and watch more youtube !

 

[Klompen]

Thanks, I'll have a look at it.
I just want to delete a few things but thanks for the warnings!

 

[Klompen]

Well I deleted 20 apk's, sofar without causing problems.

It's a little difficult because the 3S's native language isn't english. But when you open the apk in Lucky Patcher, you can see the original english name.
