How To Guide Debloat Guide for RUI 2.0 and RUI 3.0 | Free System Resources by removing bloatware using ADB
- Thread starter RMX3370
- Start date
the file name is wrong, it shows as ADBAppControl-1.7.4-setup.exe.zip
rename it and remove the .zip > it will work
Is there anything on the list that is required to receiving OTAs?
I removed everything that said "not needed, bloatware, tracking tool, telemetry, privacy hazard, gimmick.."
I'm stuck at A06. Some have even gotten A08 already apparently...

I also removed many apps... Got Android 12 two days ago OTA...
The rollout is in waves maybe you need to be patient for few more days ...
I see. These "waves" seem smaller compared to what other companies dish out xD
Thanks for reply.
You can restore all the system apps that were removed without doing a factory reset
All you have to do is open the ADBAppcontrol and select Deleted button, then it will show all the removed apps, now right-click on those apps whom you want to restore
After restoring do a reboot
R
If you dont want to update then removing these apps help as ROM wont be able to check for new uodates
It is recommended to restore Software Update, SAUHelper and System Upgrade Services these are required pacakges to get and download an update
If you dont want to update then removing these apps help as ROM wont be able to check for new uodates
This works with all versions, you can restore any system app that you may have removed by going to Deleted section and right click on app and select Restore to restore it.
Factory Reset also works but this is like using a sword in place of needle

You dont need to do factory reset to restore a system app removed using ADBcontrol app even if you did not backed up them , just shift to Deleted tab and select apps that you want to restore

7WARNING
- You might loose functionality provided by an app if it is removed .
- Also neither I nor XDA will be responsible for any loss or damage that occurs to your device .
Overview
A safer approach to remove resource hogging bloatwares preinstalled by our dear Realme , all removed apps can be re-installed with adb , Read the guide carefully to find out what apps are safe to remove .
Although it is not necessary but it is better to follow this guide immediately after completing first setup .
Also you may need to re- debloat after installing any System Update

STEPS
Enabling Developer Mode
- Go To Settings >About Phone > Version> now tap on Build Number 7 times till it shows a toast that Developer Mode is enabled
- Go back To Settings > Additional Settings > Developer Options now Enable USB Debugging , now scroll down and Disable Permission Monitoring
- Connect your Phone to PC via USB cable and a Popup will ask Use USB to select option Transfer Files/Android Auto
GUI Method
