My experience. New commands and how to search packages

I truly Thank you very much for this thread!!:laugh::highfive:
Since I don't want to mess it by installing a custom ROM, I prefered to just uninstall the bloatware this way and it worked wonders.
Now a thing I noticed is that in the Realme UI update they changed the name scheme and this may happen again.
This app helped me a lot to identify the names of the packages: PACKAGE NAMES by CsIng. (Can't post links since I'm new).
And also one of the persons that commented mentioned this command:
pm list packages | grep 'coloros'

It gives you all the pakages with the word in between the ' ' signs.
I tried the following and I found a lot of things to remove as well:
pm list packages | grep 'coloros'
pm list packages | grep 'heytap'
pm list packages | grep 'oppo'


Just copy and paste all the packages you wanna delete in a Note and add the deletion command and copy that back again in the CMD.

With these two tools you can actually eliminate the bloatware out of any phone.

This is the list of things I deleted and so far so good.

I wasn't able to unistall 3 apps marked in the list down below.
I suggest you guys to download LAWNCHAIR from the playstore since this launcher allows you to "hide" from the app drawer the apps of your choice. And that should make it work.

@kkarnaout Thanks for your instructions on how to get rid of chinese Bloatware, now I have sucessfuly uninstalled the Apps which disturbed me. Still, I have one thing, system SMS/MMS app. I hoped when I have an alternative prior installed, system will be forced to use that one, it doesn't. So I wish to reinstall the default com.android.mms which is even when uninstalled, still as default checked in system.

I tried
pm install -r --user 0 com.android.mms
with no success. Any idea?

    * Your warranty will be void if you tamper with any part of your device / software.
    Objective :

    The following is for all who have a CN Version RealMe X2pro and want to change to EU Rom and not able like myself for the time being.
    I'll provide a step by step Guide to remove all unwanted Chines system apps related to RealMe or Oppo and what to install to get a somewhat of clean and working build that would still get OTA and will be a better experience.
    I hope its useful as that was the only way for me to use my CN version phone.


    What you need First to be done:

    Make sure google play Store is installed.
    Make sure you are on the latest update. "RMX1931_11_A.12" even if you do OTA update nth will be affected.


    Source all credits to this post.
    What you need to do Second:


    1) Install the USB drivers for your device (Google has a list of some universal USB drivers here)
    2) Download the ADB binary for your particular OS (Windows, Mac, Linux)
    3) Extract the zip file into a folder that you can quickly access.
    4) On your phone, go to Settings and tap on About Phone. Find the Build Number and tap on it 7 times to enable Developer Options.
    5) Now enter Developer Options and find USB Debugging. Enable it.
    6) Open CMD at the location where you downloaded point 2 and point 3

    The Source link has even more details ill stop at this point and jump to the Third step with what we need to delete.


    Step Three :

    After CMD is open on the designated folder where you extracted the zip file:
    Commands first set:
    PHP:
    * adb devices
    * adb shell
    you will see your device details "shell@whatever:/ $"
    click the source link if you need visual details
    Commands second set:
    PHP:
    Now copy past hit enter part for the following after each other 
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.oppo.quicksearchbox  ----> This will remove the single swip from top to bottom search that has lots of Chinese in it
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.coloros.assistantscreen  ---->This will remove the breeno assistant 
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.coloros.smartdrive ---->This will remove the breeno assistant drive
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.coloros.directui ---->This will remove the breeno assistant 
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.coloros.ocrscanner ---->This will remove the breeno assistant 
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.coloros.speechassist ----->This will remove the breeno assistant 
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.nearme.browser ------>This will remove the browser 
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.oppo.market  ---->This will remove App Market
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.coloros.findmyphone  ---->This will remove find my phone service
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.realme.findphone.client2  ----> This will remove Find my Phone
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.coloros.filemanager  ----> This will remove File Manager
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.coloros.wallet  ----> This will remove the wallet
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.nearme.themestore  ---> This will remove Themes
    * pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.sohu.inputmethod.sogouoem  ----> This will remove the Keyboard make sure you have another one installed.
    Those area the apps that i found annoying and made me hate the UI.


    Step Four:

    Now since everything is removed you ether clone your old phone using the app or just start downloading your apps from Google play Store.
    for the swipe down the moment you install "Google" from play store it will directly replace it with google search.


    Note: In case anything happened you can always just do a hard rest and you are back to normal

    Let me know how helpful this is to you guys. and if you need to check anything else to update this post.
    This is how i am actually enjoying my RealMe X2pro now.

    again all thanks and credit to @ Doug Lynch Source i just made the short cuts easy to come back too.

    Hmmm, my ringtones don't work anymore
    its cause you uninstalled file manager had same issue when i had my reno 10x

    also you can remove com.coloros.athena (this will keep things running in background helps notifications come through without delay only change is when you pull up recents you have to manually swipe each app away to close cause the X at the bottom no longer works)

    Another thing is you do not have to Factory reset your phone to get apps back since you technically are not uninstalling things just disabling them. go back to the adb command window and type following command "adb shell cmd package install-existing (name of package you disabled)" and this will re-enable them.

    Hope this helps

    You know how to change the launcher?
    yes its possible but i don't recommend because your home button will not work and will hang the phone ! if you still want it let me know i can add it later to first post!

    Thanks for this. I was thinking of doing this too but you've saved me the trouble. I was busy trying to compile a version of Lawnchair with the applicationId of com.oppo.launcher to try and trick the phone in to bypassing the home gesture issue but without much success.

    The home button (virtual keys) are fine as long as you have another launcher installed when you remove the oppo one. The upward gesture swipe to homescreen will not work (doesn't hang the phone, just fails and brings the last app back up), though you can long swipe up (recents) and click on the empty space to get back to the launcher but I ended up going with the virtual keys.

    Create oppo id

    Can it fix the login of CN rom?
    I can't login cause they need phone 86+ from china it will paid the number that we login too.
    I tried to use free sms received but yes it need too pay to login with Chinese number.
    You can totally create an account on their web page and login on the phone, so you can get the added services and avoid their pesky login requirements. Also ig you don't want to use your phone number, use twilio or something like that
