Themes app

Great stuff! Thanks so much for the work!
One question, what's the reason why you marked the Themes app as unsafe to uninstall?

Because someone will remove it and then wonder why they can't change the theme

However since the Huawei themes app is on the Play Store I'll add it to the safe to remove apps.

Huawei Mobile Services

pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.hwid

Some info regarding its' removal:

com.huawei.hwid refers to the Huawei Mobile Services app, the icon looks like this.
Details on Google Play are as follows.
Basically it's a service that enccompases Themes, Mobile Cloud, HiCare, Phone Clone, Huawei Wear, Huawei Health, which mean that by removing it, you won't be able to use those following services.

Smart Diagnosis

pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.hwdetectrepair

Here is my list regarding package removals. It's just a slight variation on the OP's one, with some packages included and their description

Did you adb uninstall"phone", have you lost the phone dialler ?If so you can use adb re install existing package again.

Read the following three pages. It shows you how to install existing packages that are already preloaded on protected area of storage that you accidentally adb uninstalled.

Recents button not working

Hi there! Using your spreadsheet worked all fine, thanks again. Until today, after I updated to Android 10 (EMUI 10). The recents button doesn't seem to be working anymore.
Any idea what I can do about this? I tried reinstalling custom laucher Evie, doens't seem to work. I tried another launcher (Poco), doesn't seem to solve it either.
*edit*
- I reinstalled existing package com.huawei.android.launcher. Uninstalled third party launcher. Recents works again. After I get back from gym, I'll try to see what happens when I again install a third party launcher, and then uninstall the Huawei launcher via ADB shell.

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.

In Android 10 if you remove the stock launcher then recents won't work. It's an Android 10 thing on all devices not just the 20 X.

Thank you.
