Worked fine on my Vzw Galaxy S6 which of course has no root
Looks like it's just disabling versus removing so it's still taking up space. Unless I'm reading how it works wrong?

I think you are correct but it still is better than nothing until we hopefully get root one day.
You disable in application manager under settings.

Not all apps though, I removed stupid my verizon that kept bugging me every time i dialed 611, i disabled about 100 bloatware crap thats not disable able in stock setting so your incorrect.
i will make a safe list later, getting about an extra 1 - 2 hours battery life.

It let's you disable apps that you can't through the application manager, so yes it's very useful. And that's not even considering the benefits of having a UI tool with backup/restore app list and batch operations.

Yep, worked for me. Nice to at least clean some things up a bit, plus it is much faster then tapping through everything to disable the ones that can be, by hand.

yep. the program uses pm hide or block (block not supported on s6) instead of pm disable which requires root to apply to system apps.

That's up to you. It presents all the apk packages to you and you choose what to hide. If you want it back, you can easily umhide it

Thanks for sharing this!
I finally got a chance to try this but I just saw it needs root. That kinda ruins it for us verizon users since we cant get root. If I could root I'd just use titanium backup to freeze them or remove them though this is a nice way to do a bunch all at once.

I'm unsure how system apps could be deleted without root, either via adb or within the Android itself. I'd be happy to be wrong though, as my Vodafone S7 will undoubtedly be full of Vodafone s**t I neither need or want. But disabling them would be better than nothing until root becomes available for the Exynos model.

good to know, i used that for the note 5 too and it made a big difference
Package disabler pro is pretty good, I just used it with the S7E also. However, be a little careful with it. On my S6E, I selected the "disable all bloatware" option and that thing turned off several packages that were necessary for VR to work and I had to trouble shoot.

That's why the Note 5 XML file is so great. Takes care of all the standard bloat without messing with the good stuff.

why wouldn't it stick? That's what I've been doing on my current S6 Edge and will do on my S7 edge. I also use Package Disabler but this app is useless as all it does, is exactly the same as what the guy does manually in the App Manager app.

I was only asking. My note 4 had the ability to disable apps in app manager. Soon as you reboot, they all come back. That's why I was asking if they fixed it yet
Sorry i dont have a link, but on /r/android and /r/galaxys7 people are reporting package disabler wrecks battery life. Fyi.
I was hiking the slot canyon in Anza yesterday and when I finally got back to a restaurant, I realized the phone , which I'd never enabled anything in particular on, had counted all my steps and several other things.
Does anyone know how to disable step counting on emui 5? I've done all the obvious things, like "disable step counting". Thanks. I don't care how many steps I've taken, only that I arrived.
Also: I meant to mention this but forgot. The camera works great for me, but that isn't good enough for the Honor 8. After I've taken some pictures, about 3 hours later, it always pops up a notification that says "I've finished enhancing your picture of _____" . What if I don't want an enhanced picture? Is there a way to turn off all this irritating crap? Thanks again.

If you are referring to the step count being displayed on the lock screen then you disable it through the screen lock settings. Otherwise, I believe it's in the Health App itself.
Not sure about the photo enhancing. Never seen that one before.
What app do tell you about step counting.
Plus, clear data and cache of the camera app and see if the pop-up is still present
I didn't even know that the Honor 8 had a built in step counter app in it's software.

The only fitness app I can find is called "google fit". I've disabled it. However, the steps are still there after disabling them on the lock screen & disabling the fit app, so I think it may be a bug or else there is another counter that just keep going. It's not that bad and it doesn't eat up any noticeable energy.

I just realized I had an app called "Health" and disabled it, and now it is gone from the lock screen. The lock screen setup doesn't work for turning off steps (or not showing them). The app was located in the /system/app folder as hw-health-midware.apk

Probably doesn't matter what my frd-l04 came with that I bought from newegg that I use on ATT. It matters more that I updated to Nougat and that's the beta which had the health app in it. On marshmallow, I never had the step counter or the health app.

Hey guys. I have a big question. Tonight i want to take some pictures to Milky Way. And where is the 30 second shutter speed. Becouse with 10 second the result is bad. Or someone can help with the settings? I tryed to take one shot with ISO 100 and shutter speed 10s. But with 10s its impossible. I need 30s. Where can i find that option? Thanks guys. :good:

Try another camera app that supports a longer shutter speed. The native camera app is a system app and you can't change the system without root.

Yes, it is possible. But just for your information rooting doesnt make the phone worse, you could actually increase it's speed, battery life etc.
Also once you root it then on e and for all ypur phone is classified as software tampered device (since knox is tripped, noway to reset it till now) by samsung. So in case in future you want to use samsung pay theres noway 4 it.
Anyways if you insist in doing then you can proceed in doing (atb)

So I recently upgraded my Android device and unfortunately it's not currently rootable like my old one was and I got used to a certain ad free lifestyle and now I have ads in every single app all over the place popping up left, right and center and its annoying the heck out of me, I can't live this way!
Does anyone have any methods or ideas for getting rid of these in-app ads without being rooted? My device is the ZTE Grand X4 (Z957). Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

That's what it feels like since most apps I use are very ad heavy. I will always need either wifi or lte on so that's not really a solution.

That's a great model for a free placeholder device! Lol, are you on Verizon or any US carrier?
