Refer build directory to find system app name and remove from there. Also remove all reference of system app from out directory before rebuilding the same 

working

Where can I find intermediate directory in source. I can able to see only library intermediate in SHARED_ LIBRARY. Can you provide any reference link with  removal of reference from intermediate directory

Use the phony package to override the packages you want to remove.

1, define the phony package and override

QCOM_OVERRIDE_PACKAGES := \

  SystemUI \

  LatinIME \

  SoundRecorder \

  SysuiDarkTheme \

  getlogapk \

  SnapdragonGallery \

  SnapdragonCamera

LOCAL_MODULE := override_packages

LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := optional

LOCAL_INIT_RC := bugreport.rc

PACKAGES.$(LOCAL_MODULE).OVERRIDES := $(strip $(QCOM_OVERRIDE_PACKAGES))

include $(BUILD_PHONY_PACKAGE)

2, include override_packages in your device.mk

PRODUCT_PACKAGES += override_packages

This is the most clean way to remove unwanted packages.
