Ant+ is not bluetooth really. It's kind of only used for some high end fitness and medical devices that can talk to SHealth as an accessory. 99% of folks probably won't ever use it or care.

Because it is "close" to how bluetooth works, it's really simple to incorporate it into the SOC. The 3 I listed are accessories drivers the one I left out is a core hardware driver. The driver probably gets loaded on boot, the 3 accessories components probably won't be used unless you attach a device that uses ANT or ANT+ so it's up to you to choose to disable or not.

In theory it could be a hack vector, but it's use is so limited what hacker type person would bother?

That being said, should be perfectly fine to disable if you wish or not.


Just sharing the info.

ANT+/ANT+ Services are to connect to Verizon's network radio antennas and allows you to have phone service. They should be disabled and removed if you have another Carriers firmware.

Verizon users need to leave ANT+/ANT+ services enabled.

Nope. You should probably google that a bit better.

It may be different for these phones but I when I looked it up for my Note 8 both verizon troubleshooting connectivity issues and Google stated they had to do with service connection.

And in the csc files for my rooted Note 8 ant+ is listed of the disablepackages.apk/removepackages.apk for all carriers except Verizon.

That's just what I remember. I could be wrong...

 

[Compusmurf]

ANT+ Is a mesh protocol used very much like bluetooth. It ties to Samsung Health for some of the add on devices. If you look around in shealth at the addons devices, you will see ant+ scales, exercise devices, heart rate sensor (which I own one of), BP devices, etc.

I would venture to guess that other than Samsung, most other Verizon or any other manufacturers won't bother to include Ant+.

If you want more info....

Do need to do this every time the software update?

 

[File4mat]

Do need to do this every time the software update?

So far with the monthly security updates I havent had to. Im certain an OS upgrade would require it. Otherwise if the app is disabled it wont update via Google Play or Samsung App store. Someone else might have a more definitive answer.

Another item to add to the list.

AR Doodle
com.samsung.android.ardrawing

Side effects: None
Notes: Ar Doodle icon will still be visible in the camera app in video mode, but if tapped nothing is executed.

Haven't checked post the update. Will be good if you can please check the same and update.
As I haven't received any update so far post doing it !

 

[monkeyass408]

anyone know how to debloat the t-mobile app?

 

[File4mat]

anyone know how to debloat the t-mobile app?

I used the ADB method to uninstall the TMO app. If I recall there were two packages:

com.tmobile.pr.mytmobile
com.tmobile.pr.adapt

Visual VM works and is independent of those packages.

Minmal ADB can be downloaded here
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1F0rgqY10xWloCiDdVCUfUQtp_AKfIjk6/view

Install Minimal ADB
On the phone go to Developer options and turn on USB Debugging
Connect the phone to PC (make sure Samsung USB drivers have been installed)

Run Minimal ADB
To confirm communication with phone type:
adb devices
Then hit enter. If this is your first time running ADB, you will see a prompt on your phone asking you to authorize a connection with the computer. Grant it. That will show your connected device if phone is communicating with pc.
- - -
To remove apps type this command:

adb shell

then you can remove packages by entering the following
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.tmobile.pr.adapt
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.tmobile.pr.mytmobile

Press enter after each line. You can also copy and paste into the ADB window. Right click, paste, press enter to execute line. You might find it easier to install CCSWE App Manager found on Play store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ccswe.appmanager.samsung&hl=en_US

I used package disable pro in the playstore. It cost $3 but it works kind of like titanium backup when I rooted.

 

[lyzgaard]

This is my debloat list

Some of the apps and services need to be disabled before delete, thats why they are both disabled and uninstalled.
I have not cleaned up the txt file yet, so some of them are double.

[forlaf]

Are you too using CCSWE App Manager?

If yes, any guide as to what is safe to uninstall/freeze etc.. in N10+?

Also, can you share screenshots of what you have uninstalled/disabled/frozen?

I have used CCSWE since I received my GN10+ SD 256 GB. Excellent and safe. It reliably disabled the apps you see listed at the beginning of this thread. I noticed that , after the monthly security updates, many of the apps that I'd disabled are now enabled back. You have to go again through the process and disable them. CCSWE is a Samsung app, and by design it will not list system apps Sammy does not want us to touch. This is when you would have to go to ADB.

So far with the monthly security updates I havent had to. Im certain an OS upgrade would require it. Otherwise if the app is disabled it wont update via Google Play or Samsung App store. Someone else might have a more definitive answer.

I noticed on mine that some of the disabled syst apps revert back to Enabled after the monthly security updates. Keep the list handy... or bookmarked.

 

[pH-0+0n]

will these commands work also for N975U qualcom version?

 

[rockuman_ex]

anyone having problem uninstalling

pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.samsung.android.spayfw

?

I waited for more than 30 mins, and i didn't get the success message like the other items.

its technically not a "samsung app" but does use sammy apis and licensing which is why it works so well.. prolly also has a part in the dev leaving some sammy apps off the list.

 

[elliwigy]

Do need to do this every time the software update?

of course.. an update if it updates the disabled apks then they will re-enable like always.

 

[elliwigy]

anyone know how to debloat the t-mobile app?

same way to debloat all the other apks lol

 

[atrix4nag]

when I am running command given in OP, I am getting following error

pm uninstall -k --user 0 package:com.facebook.services

Failure [not installed for 0]

How to fix this?


EDIT: this error is only for facebook app, rest of the commands, I am able to run.
