Nice, you're welcome, but as per rules thank me with the apposite thanks button also :silly:
Which list you've followed to remove apps..? Not mine I'd assume since that you've removed a lot of fundamental stuff that in my list is flagged as not to be removed, in capital letters. Honestly if i were in you I'd reinstall the firmware, in way to avoid even worst scenarios. And overall, as i wrote in OP, when you're doing something you don't know, at least have a backup on external SD card on which rely in cases like this one.
Doing what? How wrong? Quick search where? Help me to help you dude, explain more about what you did and tell to me the steps you've made to come at this point, because if not, it'd be impossible to help you without even a clue.
Once again you have to give me more informations, because still i don't know what you did to face that.
Please man, at this point i kindly invite you for the last time to explain someone in way to understand something about the problem: which apps from the list you've removed totally, which is your Android version and how you'd reproduce the issue? Because saying that you removed only green apps in my list is practically saying that there is something wrong in my guide, and since that i work and write every detail with extreme attention, I'd like to be sure about the origin of the error.
Some appear to have something to do with GPS which I have turned off.
I'd assume yes dude, honestly it's really difficult to tell more 'bout this simply because this sounds like if somethin' really crucial has been removed and so, app launch (or activity launches) are failing to. Plus, i don't know exactly which apps you removed, so it's really hard to tell. I'd say that since that something similar happened to me something like 1 year and an half ago, i remember that i did a clean flash of EMUI and started troubleshooting which package could had caused the issue. And that's what i advice you to do. Just specify your system version and if other modifications has been installed (like root, xposed, ecc.). I'd check by myself, but i'm running Descendant GSI and overall i'm not planning to come back on EMUI in future, even because the 6X will remain my first and last phone from Huawei, so i'll be not able to tell.
Hey man glad to hear that, i'm happy that the list is useful. Thanks for notifying to me the typo, you're right. Must had my eyes crossing while writing it, i've surely mixed stock Android Email client with G-Mail's. Corrected it now :highfive: And for your second question, sure: removing the apk "com.huawei.hdiw" (Huawei ID App) and "com.huawei.android.hsf" (Huawei Services Framework) did the trick and allowed me to get rid of everything that was related to Huawei Account in EMUI 5. Dunno if things has changed on EMUI 8/9.hey RedSkull,
thanks a lot for this list. it really helped a lot when debloating the crap out of emui
in Google-App list you mentioned: com.google.android.email - G-mail.
I think correct package-name is com.google.android.gm (at least it was in my p20 with emui 9)
and a question: is there any package which removes the "login with huawei-id" at top of settings-menu?? that really annoys me
kinds regards
Huawei Geofence services, Huawei Indoor positioning services and HwNearby surely are related to location/gps, but about the other packages i gotta ask you to give me some time to learn more 'bout. I'll surely search for them and explore the packages when i'll have some time, i'll keep you updated about.Many thanks to you for the list RedSkull!

Apk's name? Because I'm 95% sure that it's just bloat crap... But if you're referring to the launcher, you must keep it.
You will find that removing contacts also stops you from using trusted contacts in do not disturb.
Thanks for reporting this, I'll update OP as I'll have time to. Didn't be aware of that since that i always used Android Contacts instead of other apps in any Android device i had.
