Guide: Remove Huawei bloatware - Noob friendly

[Zalext]

Hi,

Thanks.

I'll try it soon on a MediaPad 10.4 New Edition.

PD:
A Szaki's debloat tool clone for Huawei would be great.

MediaPad 10.4 New Edition

Just uninstalled some of the Apps and the Device kept working.
Pending to restart and check.

Used the command adb uninstall --user 0 [package name]



Thank you

Any idea why I'm getting /system/bin/sh: adb: inaccessible or not found when trying to remove stuff?

I think I'm connected

127|HWLYA:/ $

whatever i type in it doesn't work

adb uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.videos for example

I removed com.huawei.android.thememanager before I read "NOT" to.

Does this break only the launcher or make the system unstable?

hi I am new to EMUi, I have exoerience with ADB. I want to use another launcher, will removing the EMUI launcher allow me to set another launcher as deafult? I am running EMUI android 10 on Mediapad M6 Turbo Chinese Rom

thanks I advanced

I have "Discreet launcher" from f-droid store installed, set as default launcher.
removed huawei home with adb.

Only thing that is gone is:
: swipe from bottom up. (only swipe left or right close app now)
: because of above, no more multiple apps open, only one, because if i swipe it away with discrete launcher itcloses app (unless app runs in notification area like tidal, vlc and so on)

Can we delete huawei cloud ?

That was the reason why i started with adb uninstall apps. Huawei cloud was the only app that was unable to disable and was unable to remove permissions.

This is indeed a quick and easy method even for noobs like me. My phone is noticeably faster now. Thank you very much.

Aside from Huawei apps, I also removed Google apps I barely use. Here is a list:

Google - com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
Maps - com.google.android.apps.maps
Drive - com.google.android.apps.docs
Play Movies - com.google.android.videos
Duo - com.google.android.apps.tachyon
Photos - com.google.android.apps.photos
Play Music - com.google.android.music
Youtube - com.google.android.youtube

AppGallery - com.huawei.appmarket
Files - com.huawei.hidisk
Support - com.huawei.phoneservice
Video - com.huawei.himovie.overseas
Music - com.android.mediacenter
Themes - com.huawei.android.thememanager
Email - com.android.email
Party Mode - com.android.imedia.syncplay
Notepad - com.example.android.notepad
Ride mode - com.huawei.ridemode
HiSearch - com.huawei.search

I haven't encountered any problems resulting from uninstalling the apps on the list. I've left some system apps like Phone Manager because I find it really useful.

I NEED HELP with one thing though:

After an update, two third party apps were installed to my phone (Lazada and Kwai). They can be uninstalled normally BUT they automatically reinstall whenever I boot my phone. I tried uninstalling them through adb, but it didn't solve the problem. Hope someone can help. Thanks.

Huawei App Gallery has something to do with Kwai that keeps on installing every time you reboot.

Hello guys
I found more easier way uninstalling, disabling and much more with adb app control.
I used it and it works great Huawei mate 20 pro.
