Oreo beta and bloatware

Hello all, so I was surprised to see Oreo update, but I did sign in for beta and after some time here it is, problem is I can no more uninstall bloatware (no root) like we were able with Emui 5. Anyone got any hint on how to remove that big amount of s**t in Oreo?

You should be able to disable... Else your only option is rooting or use a launcher that can hide icons.

That's not an option. I mean, I want to uninstall and with previous one I was able to do it via phone manager. There was this list of pre-installed apps but can't find it anymore. So I just want to confirm if it's gone or just hidden somewhere. Thanks anyway

Check Phone Manager - Cleanup - Storage Manager (button/text top right). Here you have pre-installed etc. I can't remember if I saw it though, I went back to EMUI 5 and always use root to remove pre-installed stuff.

Can't see the option you are talking about in emui 8, could you post a screen shot?

No idea. I'll maybe look into it. But it's not something that immediately hits me as "hey I can do that". I'm incredibly lazy and stoned a lot (stage 3 colon cancer survivor). So keep that in mind lol

Well dang, I still can't get call screening even with this. That's the only feature I truly missed when I left pixel 2 xl for a op7pro. I just have the worst luck trying to get it back.
Also I had a super nice stable device on 9.5.13 with root and a lot of nice things and the only reason I even went to 10 was the other thread said it was working on 10 and xxx said it worked on 10 and now I've been on 10.0.1 for 3 days and it's the buggiest thing I've used ever

It's incompatible with your set up or you didn't follow the directions. (I'm not angry). But I've posted screenshots proving it works
So try eliminating variables till it works.

Well I am on the T-Mobile version converted to international so mine is the gm1915 which you already said might not work. I completely clearer out every magisk module I had, rebooted to a stock rooted phone and things were fine, installed your first module, rebooted things were fine, installed the companion module and get a bootloop. Thankfully I have twrp and uninstalled the companion module and now it boots. I just have a gut feeling it's not going to work on here and I REALLY hate wiping my data so I'm just going to wait and see if someone else makes a breakthrough on the gm1915 model

Well you didn't follow the instructions. You didn't install Google phone. Please reread.
If you don't install Google phone before flashing the companion. It won't boot.
I provided clear instructions. Follow them and you'll get call screen.
How to install (Magisk Manager or TWRP):
0. Uninstall kirisakura kernel companion, it's included.
1. Install "Anxious7Pro_v*.zip".
2. Reboot.
3. Install google phone apk from apkmirror or just use the apk in the companion module.
4. Set up google phone, i.e. grant all permissions (including "Draw over other apps" and "Modify system settings"), set as default phone app, open app and set up available features.
5. Install "Anxious7ProCompanion_v*.zip".
6. Reboot.
7. Profit.
Also you should pretty much always have BusyBox installed if you're rooted.

I have no idea what kirisakura kernel companion is, but is compatible with Smurf kernel? Could that be my problem?
I also had Google phone installed before I did this, I preferred it over oos dialer from the start

You should follow the instructions. If it says install Google phone, you should do that. If it's already installed that means you should uninstall to install. And it's just a handful of shell script commands. It is NOT the issue.
I'm not trying to be difficult. But you've twice not followed the instructions. If you don't follow them. It won't work.
The instructions were set up specifically for this. The non-boot that is caused by Google phone being installed as a system app prior to being a user app. I have no idea why in hell that would cause a non-boot. But it does. As I said I am very lazy. I did everything I could to make this a one and done module. So I wouldn't have to provide much support.
Kirisakira companion is listed as feature but I actually rewrote it and that will probably be put into the original mod from freak07. It's just to emphasize not needing to install both.

I think it's ridiculous it requires instructions but it's the only consistent way I've found to get all the listed features working. Please please please ? ?? read them carefully and follow them. Meaning the below paragraph is the ridiculous part btw.
It makes no sense Google phone causes a non-boot when installed as system app first. Even in a module by itself. It causes that.
I spent a week figuring out the easiest way to do this. And I got it down to under 10 steps. Please follow them.
I even spent time leanring how the unity module template works ecause the companion module is unity. And I'm really lazy.
Simplified instructions
How to install (Magisk Manager or TWRP):
0. Uninstall Kirisakura kernel companion and Google Phone, if both/either are installed. Reboot if you uninstalled.
1. Install "Anxious7Pro_v*.zip".
2. Reboot.
3. Install google phone apk from apkmirror or just use the apk inside the companion module.
4. Set up google phone, i.e. grant all permissions (including "Draw over other apps" and "Modify system settings"), set as default phone app, open app and set up available features.
5. Install "Anxious7ProCompanion_v*.zip".
6. Reboot.
7. Profit.
If you don't follow the instructions, you'll probably end up in a non-boot/bootloop.

@TotallyAnxious I will post here. I will be doing clean install of Beta 4 in a couple of hours, and post feedback here. One question though... I am a beta tester for Google Phone. Should I not use it, and instead install the nodpi version of latest .APK that you linked?

Didn't you just confirm it works with that screenshot? And I use beta too. But I have stable in the companion module and you can use any verison. I just don't want to provide a non stable starting point. I get less issues reported that way haha you'll learn overtime I consider how to minimize the effort I need to put into support beyond the OP. I'm incredibly lazy.

Question Poco x3 pro can't get root

Hi everyone.
to see if anyone can help me get full root please.
I have tried to root my "poco x3 pro" many times but to no avail.
According to magisk and root checker they say that if there is root but when using the apps, they request root access and according to magisk it grants it but then it says that the option is temporarily unavailable.
this happens to me with "es file Explorer", "root Essentials" "sixaxis controller" etc ,.
I already tried it with the global official miui, miui.eu and xperience rom, I installed it with twrp and with orangefox. Thank you very much and greetings.
Edit:
Well, it's appear that the apps I used, are incompatible and obsolete on android 11.
Magisk can grants root very well.
Thanks everyone

Do you have other apps that can use root access?
For example: root explorer, MiXplorer, termux, terminal emulator... any apps that can use root.
Try them and see if those apps can get root access.
A) If those example apps can get root permission and works properly, then the problems are within those apps that does not work properly with root.
es file Explorer : original ones cannot be found on Play store, suspect lack of maintenance for new Android version
root Essentials : last update : October 27, 2017, some comment on Play store states issues for Android 10
sixaxis controller : can't find on Play store, last update found was 2017
B) If those example apps cannot get root permission, then prepare to do a clean flash, which will completely wipe data. Do backup of the data on your own.

Any ideas?

The DocumentsUI module controls access to specific files for components that handle document permissions such as attaching a file to an email. This module is updatable, meaning it can receive updates to functionality outside of the normal Android release cycle.

You have to root for this
1. Install any root browser (x-plorer , cx file manager etc.
2. open /system/priv-app/DocumentsUIGoogle
3.copy all apk files to any internel storage folder
4. Install all these apk files at once using any split apk installer ( Recommended -com.smartpack.packagemanager )
download link - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.smartpack.packagemanager
5.Reboot
Note :- if you are unable to find these apk files then use attached files

I had uninstalled system apps using ladb application in mobile but now the problem is that this file is com.google.docomentsui it was also uninstalled and now there is a lot of trouble Give some solution so that we can reinstall this app without pc and without root.

How do I delete system apps on newer phones?

I've recently worked on both a OnePlus 11 and a RedMagic 8 Pro (both with Snapdragon 8 gen 2), and on both phones I can't seem to remove YouTube. I'm rooted, and I've tried Titanium Backup and System App Safe Remover. I've also tried navigating to the APKs in a root explorer, but I was unsuccessful. I also used a terminal to run `su` and `reboot disemmcwp` in order to get write access, but that made no difference.
Is there something different about new phones? I need to power up my power-user status.

RootExplorer should do the job.
AFAIK Youtube isn't installed as system-app but as system-privileged-app: a big difference!

That's a good suggestion, and maybe that's where I'll end up going. It's just kinda irksome that I used to have more freedom. Seems like "the man" has been working hard against the rooting community for the last couple of years.

I have seen too many posts on this and have been wondering for long why people bother so much with replacing the official app, when the non-root version works just fine, including opening links by default. There is just nothing that the root version can do which the non-root version can't, so I suggest to install the non-root version and forget about it.
