delete any language database you don’t use! For example; I use english USA, I keep this 2 file and delete all other files:

amzn.apps.ref
amzn.mp3.properties
amzn.mshop.properties
amzn.mshop.windowshop.properties

/system/etc/customization/content

** any wallpapers you don't want (or remove all)

/system/etc/product/content

demovideo.mp4

/oem/media

bootanimation.zip # not broken bootanimation until you don't touch "/system/media/bootanimation.zip"

ATTENTION:

NOT TESTED!!! (need a little more time for update this list)

** don't touched other qualcomm services. for example

/system/app/fastdormancy # Qualcomm fastdormancy: controll network switch
/system/priv-app/qcrilmsgtunnel # Qualcomm RIL: controll dualsim (you can't switch between your simcard)
/system/app/embms # Qualcomm LTE: controll north-america operators 4g bands.
/system/app/TimeService # Qualcomm time service: network operator auto time set

** fastdormance and embms not suported in my country, i removed that but better not touch that. :laugh:

This list will update if i finde more and more bloat files.

mention me if you find any bloat i forgote to add, or if think some files in this list can break device or rom. ;)
