[GUIDE] [SPREADSHEET] Remove System Apps Through ADB

[ajsmsg78]

Here is an Excel spreadsheet that I made with all packages from the EVR-L29 and how to remove them without root. Each package name is listed along with the description of each package (if applicable) and whether or not each package is safe to remove. Use your own common sense on removal of some of these. Obviously if you want the stock dialer and contacts then don't remove the Android Dialer & Contacts packages. You need ADB & Fastboot extracted to a folder on your PC and you have to open up a command prompt in that folder.

I don't use the Facebook app nor do I screen share on Facebook so I really can't be of much help. Maybe there is someone else here who knows the reason why it's not working? The only thing I can tell you is make sure all of the permissions for Facebook are checked under "Special Access" in settings/apps/apps/3 dots at the top right, Special access.

Excellent list. I kinda, ' winged it on the AL-00 but this will help for next time. I'm assuming there was more junk on the Chinese version.

Yeah there are some more on the Chinese version but a lot of them can be removed without penalty. I'm hoping to eventually buy an AL00 version as well so I can play around with rebranding. I wouldn't mind having one of each to help with development.

Removing the stock dialer is a bad idea. It can mess with emergency calling. I don't recommend you do that.

Removing the stock dialer is optional. I always remove it and use Google Dialer and have no issues.

You need to install the Google dialer from the playstore

Thanks bro. it worked

Thank you! Uninstalled annoying facebook stuff and more importantly - Huawei's stock music app. Everytime I connect to my car, it auto launches and I resorted to denying it my storage access, but having it completely gone feels better.

A quick question - will a factory reset return all these removed apps?

Cheers!

Yes it will, it's in the last line in the description in the OP.

Great list, this is super helpful!

EDIT, just a word of warning, I did a few of the things in green, nothing that I thought was system related, mostly cleaning up Huawei apps.
Phone no longer boots. Had to factory reset..

I removed every single thing in green and also about 10 more apps and have no issues. Do you have the Chinese or Global version? I can't remember. Make sure you don't remove Huawei Updater (HWOuc)

I'm on the Global version. What's also interesting is that after a factory reset I have some menus and things that are different. Even though I am supposedly on the same build.

For example when you do the recent tasks, it used to show me all the apps running in a left to right scroll-able list. Currently its now an top to bottom list. Not sure I care either way, but it's interesting that its different.

Same thing happened to me, did you get the original recents (horizontal) back?

 

[flatronics]

I'm guessing it has something to do with the Huawei launcher being removed. I had the same happened after removing it then switching to Apex.

Removing the stock launcher will change the recents to the old style. It was the same on my OnePlus 6.
