Debloater Zip
This is my first MOD.
I just made a zip for my own use and I'm sharing it here.
I personally don't like the system apps which come with LineageOS and LineageOS based ROMs. We all flash GApps and then end up having double apps like Calendar (Google Calendar and Stock LineageOS Calendar). This consumes more space in your "/system" partition.
I tend to remove these apps and use the ones provided by Google instead in "/data" partition. This saves space in "/system" and also doesn't allow to have double apps.
Hence I made a Debloater zip, I know there are various zips out there which can help you debloat your ROM, but they also come with installing something or other.
This zip is a pure Debloater zip. It will just remove the apps which are not used by many in general.
Code:
[SIZE="2"]The list of apps which I have removed from "/system/app" & "/system/priv-app" are
[LIST]Calendar[/LIST]
[LIST]CMFileManager[/LIST]
[LIST]Email[/LIST]
[LIST]Exchange2[/LIST]
[LIST]ExactCalculator[/LIST]
[LIST]Jelly[/LIST]
[LIST]PicoTts[/LIST]
[LIST]Launcher3[/LIST]
[LIST]Trebuchet[/LIST]
[LIST]Gallery2[/LIST][/SIZE]
If you guys want any particular app to be removed apart from these, I can make a separate zip file for you personally.
Don't forget to hit the Thanks button if you like my work.
Changelogs
V 1.0 Removes Everything listed above
V 1.0 Doesn't remove CMFileManager
V 1.2 Doesn't remove Launcher3 and Trebuchet
V 1.3 Removes DocumentsUI too

I'm using Resurrection Remix, hence I did not make a zip for AOSP Based ROMs. If someone can help me out with the location of these apps in AOSP Based ROMs can Telegram me, I'll make a zip for AOSP also.

Great concept! Just wondering if debloating this way is different from the aroma OpenGapps package in terms of removing stock system apps?

Your welcome. Thanks for the gapps-config file, I'll look into this later on. Seems nice.
Edit: The config file is nice, but that's too much work to do, If anyone personally wants it, it can be done. I've made that same process easy by making this zip.
Code:
delete_recursive("/system/app/Email");
delete_recursive("/system/app/Exchange2");
delete_recursive("/system/app/Calendar");
delete_recursive("/system/app/Jelly");
delete_recursive("/system/app/Camera2");
delete_recursive("/system/app/CMFileManager");
delete_recursive("/system/app/messaging");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/Launcher3");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/Trebuchet");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/DocumentsUI");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/Snap");
delete_recursive("/system/priv-app/OmniSwitch");
I use this code to remove all the bloatware while flashing the ROM zip
Removes most the things (can be used for other LOS and AOSP based ROMs too)

I would recommend you to do a clean install once again.
Also I have not been using OP2 since a while now hence I am unaware about the recent developments in the ROMs, so it might have been because of some changes from the ROM side too.

My After-Flash AppsVersion 1.4.1
Hi guys !
Boring to have to download again and again and again the same apps after flashing a new rom ?!
Maybe this tool is for you !
I'm used to flash roms, several times a week, almost always AOSP ROMS, or ROM without apps like manager files or like that, and sometimes i can't flash, over the current , so i need to wipe, and lost my apps, and have to download them and install them again and again ...
So i made an AROMA Installer, using Aroma App Package Creator , which i can use after flashing a new rom, like i reflash GAPPS ...
Maybe it could help someone, so i decided to share this with you !
AROMA config of this package is a little bit modified by myself.
I Hope you'll like it
ScreenShots
Installation

Q/A
For which device is this tool ?
> Because of the update-binary-installer file modified, it's made for Sensation and SensationXE,but maybe it could works on some others devicesHow can i put my own apps ?
> Open the zip file with Winrar for example, or your favorite tool, and just drag and drop your .apk files in My_Apps folder.
But be careful, names of your apps don't have to contain any spaces characters, replace them by an underscore "_", or something else !
Future Updates
Multi languages selection (English / French)
Possibility for people to add their own apps from a subfolder in SD-Card (without touching the zip file)
Suggestions
I don't want this package become too big, but any suggestions are welcomes
Will be updated regularily !!

I made a little package with apps mentionned (that's why suggestions are wlecomes, if some could be added ), but you could try to put your own in, if you want. Or trying the tools i used before "Aroma app package creator".
I'm working on a dynamic online aroma creator, PHP based. You should be able to put your apk, and generate your own package ...
But not ready yet
Sounds great! :good:
Are those apps written in Aroma or only put into the apps sub folder?
I would try to put mine in...

The advantage of AROMA is to have a visual and make a choice of what app you want to install.
So you have to modify it to see your app in the list, and managed to select them for installation.
Or you could just add some lines code which will automatically install some apps, without prompting ... but better way to make a flashable zip instead of an AROMA installer if you have nothing to select
Will test it tomorrow when I reflash my rom. Tested so many apps, icons and themes, it's nearly full of crap :good:

Hi,
Like i said in first post, i used Aroma App Package Creator, to make my fisrt package, and see how it works.
After that, i made some modifications in the aroma-config file to had some features, changed the update-binary-installer file for one worked fine with our sensi.
So you can extract the zip linked, and add your apps in data, and changed some lines in aroma-config. there are some comments in this file, it could be easy to know where changes have to be done.
But i'm looking for the best way, to allow people to add in their own apps ... without making some dirty modifications directly in thoses files
i also said that i'm creating an online tool, which allow everybody to make it own aroma package, with apps they wanted into. But not ready yet.
For your apps, Facebook, is already in, i think i could add MX player ...
Most important i think is ES Files Explorer, which allow you to install other apps from your SD
For the others, if there are many suggestions about the same apps you wanted in, i will add them
Thx for your feedback
Little screenshot added !
Thanks For The Reply... I will flash 10.1 JB Today and will then try your installer
and yes the tools you included are best for basic installations , and most use them too , I had those in my app list but you already included them so i didn't posted them ..

Installer fully ICS themed
Possibility to add your own apk in the installer (read Q/A in first post to know how to)

Hi all,
I took a bit of time (and restoring nandroids) to create an AROMA installer script.
It works on 5.0 stock (based) ROMs as well, please test and report back.
What it does:
Debloat your system
- Remove LG apps
- Remove Google Apps (which can be downloaded from Play Store)
- Remove boot/shutdown animations/sounds
- Remove all other UI/Camera/Alarm/Notification/Ringtone sounds - see 2nd post if you need to restore these easily
Install KitKat external SD fix or restore to stock
CPU Thermal Throttling (CTT) Mod by @Robshr
Sharpening Mod by @Skin1980 - see 2nd post if it bootloops

The script currently is in English and German, more localizations welcome.
Disclaimer:
THIS SCRIPT SHOULD BE SAFE TO USE ON STOCK 4.4, 5.0 AND STOCK BASED CUSTOM ROMS AS WELL, INDEPENDENT OF YOUR DEVICE MODEL.
STILL, USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
ONLY REMOVE APPS YOU DO NOT USE.
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR DEVICE LIKE BOOTLOOPS/BRICKS/HAVING TO FLASH STOCK.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A CURRENT AND WORKING NANDROID BACKUP.

- Added support for 5.0 stock (based) ROMs

Known (possible) side-effects:
- After removing everything the debloater offers at once, the phone sometimes would not find the mobile network. Turning off and on again Wifi and Data helped
- Sometimes all settings (new profile) or just language get lost. Restore nandroid and try again.
- It is heavily recommended to setup an alternative keyboard and home screen before removing LG Home and LG Keyboard.
- Removing LGInstallService causes "App Updates" to download LG apps, but not install them.
- Removing Update Center causes Settings->About Phone->Update Center to FC, and you have no (direct) way to open App Updates (LG app updater) or Software Update (OTA updates). Removing Update Center, App Updates and Software Update causes Update Center to not even appear and not cause any issues.
- Removing Google Search is said to lead to a bootloop if you factory reset your device (see this thread) - I don't intend on resetting my device, so no idea.

Requirements:
- TWRP recovery

Usage:
- Create a nandroid backup
- Download the attached .zip and copy it to the root of your external SD card (/storage/external_SD)

- Select options
- If debloating, make sure you select the correct OS version. I will not assist if you debloat a 4.4 ROM in 5.0 mode or vice versa.
- If you debloated, wiping dalvik/cache might be a good idea
- Reboot

In Case the Sharpening Mod does not work for you ("dirty" boot partition, code security verification error or something like that)
Restore the nandroid Boot backup you did create... didn't you?
If you are using a ROM currently:
- Extract "boot.img" from your ROM zip (should work).
If you are using a custom kernel:
- Extract "boot.img" from the kernel zip (should work).
If you are using stock:
- Download your correct version stock firmware image (KDZ). Extract it using "WindowsLGFirmwareExtract", then extract "boot_xxxxxx.bin" from the resulting .DZ file. Rename it to boot.img. (Guaranteed to work)
For Mac/Linux, there are Python scripts linked around the G3 forums, searching "extract KDZ" or visiting the G3 Index Thread in G3 -> General should help.
Sorry I cannot provide more information for these systems. All commands below should be the same except "adb push /path/to/boot.img /sdcard/boot.img".
Here's a stock 10L kernel for D855 . Extract the zip and rename the .bin file to boot.img.
Connect your phone to pc, open a command prompt, and type everything that is not in ():
Code:
adb push c:\path\to\boot.img /sdcard/boot.img
(copy boot image to internal memory)
adb shell
su
(start a ADB shell and get root permissions)
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot
(overwrite current boot partition with all zeros - WILL throw an error, don't worry.)
dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot
(overwrite now empty boot partition with kernel image)
exit
exit
adb reboot
(reboot the device)
This completely wipes your boot partition with 0000's, then fills it up with the kernel image you used before.
Now the Sharpening Mod will work.
If you copy the boot.img to the SD manually, you can execute all commands starting from 'su' up to the second exit in a terminal app on the phone itself as well.
Make sure you don't make any typos, and reboot afterwards!

Safe to remove but have a replacement installed (and better set that to default before debloating).
Also, if doing a Factory Reset, this can lead to Setup Wizard loops. I can not confirm if integrating

Unfortunately there currently is no way for me to find out what went wrong on your device.
Hoping for a few more people to test the mod and report back if they encounter the same.
After the installer did its job (Mounting partitions, removing stuff, unmounting partitions), you are offered a "save log" button on the bottom left.
Is there a chance you'd be willing to try once more and then attach the log?
This might help with analysis.

Great work. Is lghome and keyboard also safe to uninstall in case of a factory reset. On the G2 with my debloater removing those together or individually caused a "setup loop".
Going to flag this on the Vs985.

Hi,
no they are NOT factory reset safe.
I will add a note to the "Safe with Alternative" section of the "readme" before the actual module selection, thank you.
Either you can integrate an alternative launcher and keyboard into the ROM (should work, never tried this before), or create a flashable zip just with these two. If you need to factory reset again, just flash the zip (copying home and keyboard to the correct /system/(priv-app)/ folder) and after the initial setup remove them again.
Edit: Oh nearly forgot, another thread (linked to in the OP) states that moving Google Search to userspace (or deleting it) and then factory resetting the device would lead to some loop (dunno if Boot, Setup or whatever) as well. That is why it's in the "Potentially dangerous" section until I had time (and interest to restore an old backup...) to actually test.

Thank you very much
As I said, I moved the app to userspace, so my Titanium says "APK path: /data/appcom.google.android.googlequicksearchbox-1.apk" - no Velvet to be seen.
I saw Velvet.apk in the unpacked system image, but could not find out what it is/does.
Will add it to the script right away
Not sure if one should remove it though, might be needed by the LG initial setup wizard, could be that the wizard loops without Google.
I've flashed the latest OpenGApps package which contains Pixel Launcher and Pixel Launcher Icons on my OPO with CM14.1 nightly. However I found that it only applied to a few icons (see screenshot). I tried clearing all data of Pixel Launcher but no luck. I'm quite sure all these apps are the latest versions.
Does anyone have any idea on this? Any help would be appreciated.

I've flashed the latest OpenGApps package which contains Pixel Launcher and Pixel Launcher Icons on my OPO with CM14.1 nightly. However I found that it only applied to a few icons (see screenshot). I tried clearing all data of Pixel Launcher but no luck. I'm quite sure all these apps are the latest versions.
Does anyone have any idea on this? Any help would be appreciated.

OpenGApps: http://opengapps.org. Package higher than full (including full) contains Pixel Launcher and Pixel icon. If your system partition doesn't have enough space you can put a gapps-config.txt alongside the zip you've downloaded. Just follow the guide on its GitHub wiki page (https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Advanced-Features-and-Options) and exclude some apps that you don't need. You can also tweak it further like uninstall stock apps while installing Gapps.
P.S. Aroma is not recommended if you're flashing it via TWRP. It stucks on the latest TWRP. But it works well with Flashfire.
If you're also seeking for the live wallpapers in the screenshot, check this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/port-live-earth-wallpapers-t3481640

Well the aroma package features a user interface for you to select the items you want, however it will crash TWRP while flashing. Even if you are using Flashfire it's quite buggy when selecting the items, making it nothing like a pleasant experience. Therefore, I really don't recommend it. I highly suggest you use the stock/full package and set up a gapps-config.txt manually according to your preference.

Yes. It is included by default. Seeing it's just Pixel Launcher and Pixel icon you need, you can also try configure gapps-config.txt as only include Pixel Launcher and Pixel icons.
But just as the description I've made, I found that the icons aren't completely applied. In fact, only phone, message, calendar, drive, play games and play newsstand are in the new icon style. The rest remains the legacy appearance. I've googled for quite a long time and I haven't seen anyone discussing a similar problem.

Thanks Mate appreciate your help:good:
Hi Everyone,
Okay, Let's come to the point.
We all flash Roms on frequent basis. After we flash any Rom, we flash Gapps, our favorite Kernel, Magisk (to root) and Favorite fonts, bootanimations, ringtones, apps like Launchers, File Managers, etc and many times we delete the bloatware when we never use them.
Having to flash all these files, we end up maintaining several zip files in several directories of our phone. Many times we get confused with the order of execution and end up messing things.
This starts to become a headache when you have to look for each file and follow a proper order. Especially when you're a flashaholic like me.
Here, with the help of my tool and Aroma Installer. I present you my After Flash zip which I use to flash everything from a single zip after I flash a rom.
Be it Kernel or Magisk, fonts or bootanimations, Everything in one zip. Exciting. Isn't it?
What it includes?
Bare minimum (and latest version of) google apps to run play store.
Facelock and Google Camera (with Google Lens and Portrait mode support)
Magisk to root
7 mido kernels to choose from
Android Boot animation (will add more as per user requests)
Google Sans font, Made Evolved Font (will add more as per user requests)
Several Ringtones and Notification tones (the ones I like)
Best Chosen System apps
Choice of deleting several bloatware (those we don't normally use)
Reset Password in recovery when system fails to recognize the fingerprint/password
Addon.d support (this will preserve the installation of files that you selected in aroma across multiple roms)
If you like the idea kindly press 'Submit to Xda Portal'. If nothing, that'll encourage me somewhat. Thanks!
Note:-
"Core" Gapps include minimum apps required to run playstore
"Basic" Gapps include Core + Google Camera + Facelock
"Full" Gapps include Basic + few more google apps which we use in day to day life
Packages starting with "AF" contains Gapps, Kernels, Magisk, etc files
Can't wait to check it out? Here ->
Download
After Flash
NikGapps
Instructions
Flash the Rom and Flash the zip
Be careful while choosing include/exclude in aroma installer.
Before you download, check the screenshots in #2 post.
Suggestions to add/remove files will be encouraged
Happy Flashing!

Yup, if people find it useful, I'll release pie gapps soon. Everything else from the package works on pie anyway, except for gapps.

How to uninstall?

For Kernel, if choose include more than one. What kernel be installed? Sorry for bad english,, btw nice job! Wait for update :fingers-crossed:

Actually the screenshot in post #2 shows options to flash multiple kernels, when I tried that myself, I ended up flashing all the kernels one after the other and the last one was flashed eventually.
This is not right so I made changes in my tool to only allow 1 kernel to be flashed.
Flash the zip, you would only be able to choose one kernel at a time. No include/exclude options.
I'll update the screenshot in #2 post later on.

If you wish to be able to uninstall what you installed, uncheck when you are on addon.d screen, that'll not preserve your changes when you will flash the ROM again.
Flash the ROM again, that will Uninstall everything.
I'll give it a shot!

@Nikhil Are you continuing it? or stopped it?
It would be great if you continue for both O and P
Please consider adding calander sync option for gapps

its definitely useful
Thanks in advance
Wow, support treble ROM? AICP to be precise
Hey!
I made a MAGISK Module with a bunch of mods for OOS 10 and thought i should share it with you.
It replaces OnePlus Phone, SMS and Contacts with Googles apps, disables a bunch of apps and some other things.
If you're interested here you go: https://github.com/niklas389/op5t_q_modpack
You can download it and modify it for your needs. Just ZIP it and install it.

Am sorry for being a noob here.
When I flashed it in magisk , it shows this is not a module , installation failed .
Am using magisk canary version
when it's downloaded, it is a zip wth a folder inside.
step to do
1. extract the zip
2. Navigate inside the unzipped folder
3. highlight every file inside and right click > compress with 7zip as zip format
4. flash and profit
Can confirm works on 9.0 aswell.
I've installed it, but find a problem with a app context menu (After long press on an icon) there is no app info, but only a red rectangle also, there is a bug on left screen.
I tried to uninstall it, the bug remain.
OSS: 10.0.1
OP5T

Hi I've downloaded the zip and tried to figure out what modifications to make - my goal is to:
-install the Google SMS and dialer apps over the OnePlus apps
-but not remove anything else
Advice on steps to achieve that?
Thanks in advance
Edit:. Forget about it, the dialer installed just fine from play store.
