    Is there anyone who makes stripped down ROMs for phones with low space? I'd like to be able to remove all the useless ****e like Facebook, mediaserver and just have a very minimum base install.

    Is there a way of removing these from a rooted phone without screwing everything up?

    Try an AOKP/AOSP install, they are pretty stripped down...

    What phone you got?

    Looks like you might be able to get Cyanogen Mod onto your phone: http://www.modaco.com/topic/352180-cm9-cyanogenmod-9-for-liquida1liquide/

    Looks promising, although I can't make head nor tail of that thread and the download link seems to be broken

    Slim rom, or AOSP but be warned for lack of gApps.

    If its just to remove crap apps, could you not just get titanium back up. Freeze the apps you don't want, and make sure it doesn't screw your phone, then if not, delete them.

    Alternatively you could try this app. Both require root to function.

    This rom looks good too. Installing CM9/10 on your phone would be cool from a geeky/technical point of view, but in daily use both would struggle with the low specs of your device.

    As soon as I can free up enough space to install it :D

    Does TB allow you to delete an app completely or do you just need to find the APK and remove it forcefully?

    You can completely remove it if you want, all done in TB.
