Root Apps to delete?

Can you delete apps such as Google talk, Gmail, metroweb, stock launcher, Google search, and YouTube, to free up phone memory, then redownload to put them on SD card? And as for the launcher, can I download go launcher or adw? And for metroweb, download dolphin browser?

I'm currently running stock++, rooted, overclocked with requisites cwm and kernel.
 
Hello,

The phone stock will vary, not every phone could be replicated the same way so there are issues that may or may not occur. The best advice to give you would be to use an application like “Titanium Backup*root” (will only work if your phone has root access) and as you make a backup, simply uninstall the applications of your choosing. In case something backfires, you can recover what was removed.

Hope this answers your question.

Sincerely,

Jxillex

It's probably a system app. If you download it you need to move it to system/app and change the permission using Root Browser Lite by JRummy 16
