This is the maximum I could get in this de-bloating journey of MIUI 10 so far and it's pretty stable. You can turn off MIUI optimizations in developer options for better RAM management. (Beware! Permissions & DPI gets reset and it's pretty easy to dial them back.)
What do you mean by the boldfaced sentence? Please elaborate. Thank you.

This automated debloating system works brilliant. Only thing is MIUI can change the location of the files. So what you have to do is to check the import-debloat.txt and edit it properly.

I think this is the best working debloat system available. If anything goes wrong or your not satisfied you can easily roll back. Your OS can't be damaged.

Just try it and follow the steps in OP!

I think miui chenged their path of the apps. I am in miui.globe 27/12 vrsn... No app is uninstalled.. i already checked for the debloated apps in magisk/core and its sub folder for the uninstalled apps.. there is none. Plese make a working mod.

You can do it easily yourself. Just edit the import-debloat.txt file.

in latest miui builds when ever debloating when reboot stack in bootscreen?
any idea?
thanku in advance
Maybe you removed the global launcher (Poco launcher) and haven't installed an alternative launcher.. Or you have signed in to Mi account and find device was enabled. All these things can cause start-up problems.

Just read at OP and undo changes with magisk mount in recovery. You can always revert the changes.

Thanks for reply. No mi account no find device. Dont use them. Magisk mount yes. Delete files as OP but No results. Still not booting.
Generally i keep deleting the same things and services as always and never had problems. But in latest builds deleting same things i get boot loops.

Maybe the Chinese get smarter ;) MIUI changes constantly. Their system apps are more and more integrated in the system.
Wouldn't surprise my if there is some boot program that is checking if all MIU elements are present if not; bootloop.

Maybe it's an option for you to flash the same version of MIUI EU on top?

You can try with the Java based tool. It's not from the OP though.

here's my initial config for 9.3.1 beta & 10.2.2 stable .
i only tested this list for bootloops and reboots, core system stability, dependencies of system apps and drain/deepsleep. did not test any further than that. YMMV
9.3.1_import-debloat.txt
It works perfectly! It's a kind of basic debloat with a few extras. I like it, thanks!

I keep experimenting with the extreme debloat on Poco. So far it didn't work. I keep getting in bootloop. I can see the start screen but immediately the device reboot into rescue recovery (on TWRP).
I don't know which app removal is causing it.

don't use extreme debloat. it is broken since miui 10.. well, even the basic debloat list is broken and will bootloop on latest beta.
you can't remove apks that are now connected to core system apps... even if the device boots, logcat is full of errors and often prevent idling of cpu, not to mention wakelock and deepsleep status.

test your logcat and don't blindly trust my list either.. i am not using miui so i didn't test this enough.

btw some packages could not be removed so had to use adb pm uninstall. i forgot what i removed since i no longer have the device with me. just open "All Apps" and see what looks suspicious.
remember to backup using twrp though, you can easily break stuff and get into a bootloop!
i will post part of these apps later, if i find them logged somewhere.

Damn! Miui changes things so fast. Will add a note in OP regarding this.
As I'm away from Miui since long time, It will be helpful if you share a stable config file to update in OP.

don't have the device anymore, but from the feedback I gathered (other people sent me results) this list won't bootloop and deepsleep is working.
I didn't remove stuff like Downloads, Scanner, and core services like cloudsync,frameworks etc. they break other system functionalities such as Updater, saved files in chrome downloads etc.

i leave everything else to the user. i was going to post a list of adb pm uninstall commands for further debloating of persistent apks, but decided against this.
for a common user, it is not systemless and will stuff if they remove the wrong apk, or remove a core service then try accessing a system feature that uses it.

hi develpers, first off congrats on the success of this awesome de-bloating tool.

I have recently purchased the poco F1 in India, and I have successfully unlocked the boot-loader, installed twrp 3.2.3.0, rooted using magisk V18.1, and install the notifications mods. phew that was quiet something, as I did it on 10.2.2.0 global stable and then on 10.2.3.0 global stable too.

This time around I dont think I have patience / time to disable, uninstall or deny permissions to apps individually as i did when I was on 10.2.2.0.(dint know this existed then, sorry.)

I was wondering if there is a extreme de-bloat file for this version of global stable 10.2.3.0, that I may use with confidence. Any or all apps missing is fine, I can reinstall them from the playstore or find apks, but bloatware is not a welcome thing for me.

thanks in advance.
