I want my app grid to be minimized to the app I want only. Some apps are built-in by my phone provider and cannot be uninstalled from the phone via System - Application menu.

I saw the old phone Samsung Galaxy S that helps us to hide it from app grid but with my new Android phone the Galaxy Nexus, I cannot find it.

How can I get that?

It depends on the launcher you are using. The stock Samsung Galaxy S4 launcher (TouchWiz) supports it.

If the stock launcher doesn't have it, you can use Nova Launcher. It allows you to hide apps so you don't see them on the app drawer.

UPDATE #1: According to Izzy's comments below, the following launchers also have a similar feature:

Use a custom launcher like ADW to freely arrange icons and add/remove them.

If you want to uninstall apps that your firmware will not let you, use adb.
