Root App Names?

Thanks ALL!

But how come my available space doesn't increase?

They're in the /system partition which you don't usually have access to... It's like going into a locked closet and throwing things away. Your living room is still crowded.

HOWEVER you can move some of your apps from /data/app to /system/app if you're sure you want to keep them (they won't uninstall the "normal" way after that). You'll have to repeat every update because system app updates are handled by keeping the updated apk in /data/app again.
