Hi I have a concern about my next phone purchase (hopefully an Xperia 5 III). I currently have an Xperia XZ2C that I'm looking to replace. The main concern/frustration with it is a few pre-loaded apps that I don't want kept trying to load and also update (e.g. Facebook and Sony News)... it...

A lot of people searched for a way to uninstall bloat or APKs using ADB because a lot of OEMs don't allow uninstalling many of preinstalled apps. Tested on Pie and Oreo. BUT most of the articles if not all of them ( couldn't find any article saying otherwise ) say that after using the command...

On my old trusty S5 Active I could disable the "popuprecvxxx" to stop the charge cable disconnect warning popup. I have a Note 9 and I turn/switch mobile data on and off quite frequently so I wonder if anyone has found the package to disable yet so when you turn mobile data off you don't get a...

How does one debloat this phone?

So, even if my country is in the EU, both Samsung AND the phone shop refuse to keep the S9 under warranty, if I change the software (meaning root, bootloader unlock, flash kernel, recovery, etc). So what are my chances of making the most out of this phone? Battery life is terrible, but I don't...

NOTE: This might only apply to the Verizon version of the S9/S9+ (SM-G96xU), but for those of you who have this app, disable it. It's labeled as "Mobile Services Manager" under Settings > Apps (it does not appear in your app drawer in your launcher). Previously called DT Ignite (or just...

I've been eyeing this phone for a while and I'm probably going to buy either this or the Oneplus 5T. But since I apply custom ROMs to all my phones, I'd like to know a few things before I decide: How much does installing a custom rom affect funcionality? I'm talking about: -The wide angle...

Hello all, I found a nice little guide, which works on most of the android phones - if you want to remove system apps, but do not want to root. All credits to dosangst on Reddit! Working ADB connection is required. And as always, be careful what you remove! Removing critical apps will result...

As Samsung always chooses to give us a ton of bloat, which apps have you disabled without any problems? I've disabled:- - Dictionary - Drive - Excel - Google Play & Movies - Hangouts - Memo - OneDrive - OneNote - Photos - Powerpoint - SideSync - Word Would be nice to know a lot more that can...

Hello, I've been trying to find a bloatware removal script / debloat script that can comprehensively remove everything except minimum essential items only. I've been searching XDA & also miui forums but can't seem to find any that is updated. I did find this thread: De-Bloater MIUI 8...

I upgraded my SM-G930F from Marshmellow to Nougat today. With the upgrade, I got some of the native and annoying bloat Samsung apps on my phone again. On my old software, I could use "Debloater by Gatesjunior" to disable those. I can't anymore. It can only read to apps/processes (see...

I have a lot of experience with Linux but despite having similar roots, Linux and Android are certainly very different beasts so I have a pretty noob question... Would it be technically possible to easily create a ROM based on LG Stock, like Fulmics, but without the LG style and bloat...

I have rooted and removed a lot of the bloat, including all AT&T apps, and most Asus Apps, but there are still some that I'm wanting to remove but I'm just not sure on how stable it will be to remove them or what they are for. One of the reasons I'm removing a lot is because for some reason I...

I am a VZW user by necessity (coverage) and I like the specs of the Note 5 (Processor, RAM, and S-Pen). Knowing that Root access is not possible (at least for now) on VZW and ATT, I am trying to determine what is possible with the Note 5 on these carriers. Without root access is it possible to...

Hello everyone, I am about to retire my One M7, which served me well in all aspects except for the camera and more importantly, battery life. I don't know anyone who has this phone and I will most likely be locked in for at least 2 years. I've read many reviews but I would like some personal...

So, I had some success improving performance on the VZW S5 by disabling some of the apps that I dont use. Lets face it - TW is just too heavy , and taking it down a notch seems to help. I have seen a few lists in various places, but nothing really definitive so far. While we all calmly and...

Hey guys, I still rename my bloat, I know, you probably see this as lame, but maybe someone has the answer anyway. In system/app, the Motorola Migrate apk (fswriter.apk) can be renamed using root and Root Explorer, but after a minute or so, or a reboot, the apk returns to the original name (I...

So I know this is probably a really stupid question, but I'll ask anyway. :D For about 18 months I ran Decks ROM and really liked how lean the whole thing was. I got stellar battery life, and had next to no bloat and it was nice and fast. I recently put a sense ROM on my phone (Infamous 2.1...

I have a few questions about removing bloatware from the stock ROM. 1) The guide here suggests removing the apk from the system partition. What about all the other installation files and data? How do you remove that? 2) Would using the uninstall option in titanium backup be better? 3) (For...

I plan on disabling the bloat on my DNA, 2 main questions here: 1. Has anyone already made a list of the bloatware that comes preloaded on the DNA? 2. Is any of the "bloatware" actually useful that is from HTC or Verizon? I wouldn't mind updating this post with the list of bloatware, Thanks.
