I did just that for the longest time, replaced the camera app so it would use the gallery application set to default on the system.
This is just one example of why I disdain Google and Apple.
There is now way to improve the security of your device. End user should have the ability to block network connects to and from select networks, infrastructures, and applications. Example an application like ZoneAlarm or Open Snitch.
The internals of SMS on Android are wrapped in an API where a simple SQLite database would work and allow quick easy backup. Nope, need to use a 3rd party program instead of just copying files.
I also support the idea of Convergence to allow the device to be used a standard computer by connecting and external monitor, keyboard, and mouse.
Being able to reclaim the storage you bought and remove the bloat-ware. There should be zero reason I must retain your email client when I will never use it.
Until Apple and Google back track down their locked in path, Linux or BSD phone is the only way to take back the "Smart" in SmartPhone.

You can do that on Android with NetGuard.
