Detach3
Introduction
This Magisk module is for detaching apps from the Google Play Store.
It removes your defined packages from the 'Manage apps and device" section and disables them from auto-updates.
Installation
Flash module in Magisk Manager only.
Not necessary to reboot after flashing this module.
This module is designed to flash as many times as you like.
It is configured with a *configuration file. You can create one before flashing this module to define your package(s) or the default one will be used instead, which detaches YouTube by default.
Add your package name(s) you would like to detach to the configuration file, with each package name on a new line.
You can add more package names to your configuration file or the default one at any time, then simply just flash module again to apply it. Again, no need to reboot or any other user interaction needed.
Read the log that Magisk Manager displays when flashing the module, it displays the detached package(s) for confirmation.
*Configuration file: /storage/emulated/0/Android/detach.cfg

Frequenly Asked Questions
Spoiler: Click to expand
Q. Can I use the old detach.txt?
A. No, I decided to ditch it. It now uses a new method explained in the installation section.
Q. Where is the boot script installed?
A. No boot script is needed for detaching, everything is done while flashing the module.
Q. Does this break safetynet?
A. No, it doesn't conflict with safetynet at all.
Q. Why shouldn't I re-enable Play Protect?
A. It will interfere with the module's purpose.
Q. Will having Play Protect disabled, open me up to vulnerabilities?
A. No, the playstore scans their market apk's after developers upload them.
Q. I usually install after-market apks (modified ones) and I think play protects me from this?
A. You should scan your unknown apk with Total Virus.
Q. How do you find a package name?
A. Magisk Manager lists your apps with the package name underneath each one, in the Magisk Hide list.
Q. What Magisk version is needed?
A. The module template is designed for Magisk v20.4+
Q. Do I need to uninstall previous version before updating?
A. No, unless stated. Just flash updated version.
Q. Do auto-updates still work for all my other apps that aren't detached?
A. Yes, auto-update and other notifications etc still work.

Detach Market Links for Theme Ready Apps *
Introduction
This Mod is for detaching apps from the Google Play Store that are included in the Theme Ready Apps zip and/or aroma installer from Team Black Out for CMTE and Substratum theme engines.
*Now also includes majority of all themed apps by Team Black Out by using an optional txt file.
The purpose is that updates will not show in your update list and also in update notifications from the Google Play Store.
This allows you to auto-update or the ability to use the update all button without the worry of updating Theme Ready Apps which will break your themes for those apps updated.
The Google apps that are detached if you're not using the optional txt file are Gmail, Google App, Google Plus, Hangouts, YouTube and Gboard (Google Keyboard).
Installation
Flash Mod in recovery, no need to wipe anything but if using SuperSU systemless mode or Magisk, flash this mod afterwards.
No need to flash again in-between ROM updates if using SuperSU systemless mode or Magisk or if your ROM supports addon.d scripts.
To detach more themed apps, place the detach.txt file either on root of your sdcard or internal storage and remove the comment from the apps you wish to detach and then flash Detach.zip
You can also use the optional detach.txt file to just selectively detach Theme Ready Apps.
If you don't use the supplied detach.txt file, only Theme Ready Apps will be detached.
To add your own custom packages (apps), read here > https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72194332&postcount=147
Uninstallation
Rename detach.txt on sdcard to detach.remove, flash Detach.zip again and reboot.
This will remove all files related to installation, including the txt and custom file and restores all market links.
Note
If not using SuperSU or Magisk, you need to have init.d support.
The configured script doesn't execute until after 60 seconds when boot has completed, this also includes the remove script too.
This Mod has been tested by myself on Android 6 and 7.
You still have the ability to update your Theme Ready Apps via Google Play Store but you'll need to use the search function instead.

Thanks @hinxnz, I'll try the newest one.
Report 1.3: My theme ready gapps were detached except Google Calendar. I installed Black Google Calendar from TBO. Is there something I can do for this?

I was thinking about adding more themed apps to detach but would have to either use a config file on sdcard for example or probably better to make an aroma version but I would need all the package names first.

I think a "fulfilled" config file is simpler. So the users have just to add/remove '#' symbol.
For the name of the apps, maybe you can ask to TBO.

Is there any reason you are using a dynamically linked sqlite in your zip? the error the user is getting is because of that I believe. Idk I would try to use a static sqlite binary. Ill attach one so you/someone can have, but in case anyone is curious how to quickly compile sqlite3 statically ill post it in the spoiler tags below.
oh and just to note, I forgot to rename it from sqlite3 to sqlite before uploading
Im not going to explain the lines though, pretty straight forward imho
/opt/androideabi is my ndk toolchain prefix
Code:
mkdir sqlite3-static
cd sqlite3-static
wget https://sqlite.org/2016/sqlite-amalgamation-3140100.zip

I have tried installing your script... And no matter how I go about... I cannot get the script to populate the su.d directory like it should...
And... Since I don't understand your flashable... I can't pull what I want out of it...
Could you explain how to install said script without recovery?
Thanks
SYSTEMLESS DevBase has been developed and physically tested on S7 Edge (G935F), so main thread containing the most detailed description you can find here:
>> [SAMSUNG][6.0+] SYSTEMLESS DevBase | Encryption support | Stock OTA updates <<
However, it should work on ALL SAMSUNG DEVICES running Android 6.0+, so if you are Galaxy S6 Edge (G925xx) owner - please place your feedback & discussion here to let me know about device-specific issues or to let me know that everything works perfect
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Are you tired with traditional custom ROMs?
Do you miss custom ROMs but you would like to have encrypted /data (for privacy/security reasons)?
You are in the right place! I present you SYSTEMLESS DevBase - an SYSTEMLESS equivalent of my previous work (for older devices)
Prerequisites:
- Samsung device running stock or stock-based Android 6.0+ (mandatory!)
- Rooted device - SuperSU v2.76+ installed in SYSTEMLESS mode (mandatory!) (*)
- Stock, untouched /system partition (not mandatory, but recommended for working OTA)
- Stock recovery (not mandatory, but recommended for working OTA)
(*) NOTE: The latest CF-Auto-Root image for G925F contains SuperSU v2.74 which does not support SYSTEMLESS solutions (su.d is not triggered early enough). It is NOT enough to update it via PlayStore to the newest version and update su binaries! You need to update it using TWRP / FlashFire installable ZIP from THIS STABLE or THIS BETA thread. Alternatively you can use "EverRoot" -> "Inject SuperSU" option in FlashFire even if you are rooted already by CF-Auto-Root (it will update SuperSU in the same way as flashing ZIP).
SYSTEMLESS DevBase:
1. Benefits / main features:
- Works with encypted /data partition
- Working official OTA updates! (see Tips & Tricks)
- Does NOT perform any phisical modifications in /system
- Does NOT perform any additional changes/patches to the kernel
- Removed KNOX warnings (systemlessly removed SecurityLogAgent)
- It contains SYSTEMLESS BusyBox (bionic, the most stable and respected release)
- It allows you to easily modify most of files & apps in your /system - SYSTEMLESSLY (see Tips & Tricks)
- It does not interfere with Magisk! You can use Magisk in paralell with SYSTEMLESS DevBase if you need it for your favorite module.
2. Systemless Safe De-Bloat (more info below):
What does it mean and why is it called "safe"?
- ONLY apps available in stores will be systemlessly removed from the ROM, so you can easily (re)install any of these app if you like
- ONLY pre-installed system apps are will be systemlessly removed, DevBase installer never touch any updated app nor app installed manually from store
Thus, the following conclusions can be drawn:
1. If you install my SYSTEMLESS DevBase directly over working stock ROM - in most cases almost all these apps will remain untouched, because almost all apps have been updated already (stored on /data). But then you will be able to remove any useless app using the "Application manager" -> [Name_Of_App_To_Remove] -> MORE -> Uninstall updates. NOTE: App will disappear arter reboot and will be visible even in Titanium Backup!
2. If you perform "Wipe data" directly before installing SuperSU and my SYSTEMLESS DevBase (before you let to install app's updates) - then all apps listed below will be removed. If you would like to use any of these apps - just install it manually from appropriate store. Installed manually app will not be removed during the next DevBase update or re-install.
Removed apps list (depends on the device, should cover all devices starting from Galaxy S5):
ChatON
Chrome
Drive
Dropbox
EditorsDocs
Evernote
Excel
Facebook
FB Messenger
FB Pages Manager
Flipboard
Google+ / Photos
Group Play
Hangouts
Instagram
OneDrive
OneNote
PEN.UP
Play Books
Play Games
Play Movies
Play Music
Play Newsstand
PowerPoint
Skype
Smart Remote
WhatsApp
Word
NEW! Safe De-Bloat feature automatically detects and systemlessly removes apps not listed above, but present in your CSC package
3. Systemless CscFeature MOD (enabled some built-in, hidden features):
- Added shutter sound menu in Camera app
- Sending/receiving MMS without data on
- Show SMS/MMS sending time instead of receiving
- Added "Exit Internet" option to stock browser
- Added call button in Phone Logs (**)
- Added "Call/Message block" option in Settings
- Added symbols as secondary keys in Samsung keyboard (**)
- Call Recording (manual control, added "Record" button)
(**) may not work starting from Android 7.0 Nougat
Installation:
1. FlashFire app (recommended ***):
- Open file using "Flash ZIP or OTA" option
- UNTICK "Mount /system read/write" [extremely important for working OTA!]
- Enable "EverRoot" -> "Inject SuperSU" option if necessary (see NOTE above (*))
- Tap "FLASH"
2. TWRP recovery:
- Tap "Keep Read Only" on the Welcome screen [extremely important for working OTA!]
- Open file using "Install" option (use extSdCard or OTG storage in case of encrypted /data)
- Confirm flash by swiping right
- Tap "Reboot System"
NOTE1: One additional auto-reboot may be performed at first boot. It is not a bug (may be required for systemless build.prop support - see Tips & Tricks for more explanations)
NOTE2: Do not worry about red "mount /data failed..." messages displayed in TWRP in case of encrypted /data (installer will do the work anyway!)
(***) As far as I know - FlashFire is the only flashing tool with full access to /data during flash in case of encrypted devices. It is also the only tool which allows you to perform full backup/restore of partitions, including encrypted /data. It does NOT require custom recovery to work!

Tips & Tricks
1. OTA updates:
- Basically, the only thing you need to take OTA update is to perform "Full unroot" in the SuperSU app. However, a better way is to use "unroot2ota" terminal command, because this will not remove DevBase boot script from /su/su.d and the only thing you will need to re-activate SYSTEMLESS DevBase (and all your systemless MODs) after performing OTA update is just re-root your device with CF-Auto-Root.
- If you flashed custom recovery like TWRP - it is mandatory to restore your stock recovery (otherwise OTA will not work). You can do it using FlashFire app (the easiest way) - just open recovery.img file (extracted from your original FW) using "Flash firmware package" option, disable "Preserve recovery" option and then tap "FLASH". EDIT: Starting from version v1.2 there is a new "unroot2ota" feature which allow you to restore stock recovery using /system/recovery-fromm-boot.p file. There is no guarantee to perform it successfully (even if there is no error message) but in most cases it works well (tested on Nougat beta). Please go to recovery before you try to get OTA to check if you have stock recovery already after performing "unroot2ota" (if not - you need to use PC Odin to flash recovery.img packed in tar file).
- It is recommended to temporarily disable "Auto-update apps" in Play Store settings before you unroot your device. It will prevent updating applications covered by Safe De-Bloat list, as there apps will temporarily appear until you re-root the phone after performing OTA update.
Note (devices which use dm-verity): You should never allow /system modifications in TWRP, never allow to remount /system r/w in any app (e.g. Root Explorer, FlashFire, etc.) and never flash a ZIP file which could modify your /system or remount it r/w. Failure to follow these recommendations will break dm-verity verification and will cause, that your device may not be able to boot with the stock kernel (you will need to re-flash your original FW using PC Odin to make your device bootable).
2. Making your own modifications:
- You can systemlessly replace any existing system app by modded one. Just put modified app to /data/devbase/system/app or /data/devbase/system/priv-app and then reboot your device
- You can systemlessly replace jar or apk in /system/framework. Just put modified one to /data/devbase/system/framework and then reboot your device (NOTE: framework support has been added for advanced users -> there is high risk of bootloop if you do something wrong!)
- You can systemlessly add or override any line in /system/build.prop. Just put (only new or changed) line to /data/devbase/system/build.prop and then reboot your device (NOTE: one additional auto-reboot will be performed if /data/devbase/system/build.prop file has been added, modified or removed. It is not a bug - it is required for the changes in /data/devbase/system/build.prop to take effect!)
- You can systemlessly replace any existing file in /system/csc and /system/etc (but NOT in subdirectories). Just put modified copy of a file to /data/devbase/system/csc or /data/devbase/system/etc and then reboot device
Limitations: original app or file MUST physically exist with the same name in /system, you can NOT add a new app or file this way!
Example 1 (Ad-Blocking): Download the latest Ad-Blocking ZIP installer from THIS thread. Extract "hosts" file (placed in /system/etc inside ZIP file), then copy it to /data/devbase/system/etc, set rw-r--r-- (644) permissions and then reboot device
Example 2 (modded SystemUI): Create "SystemUI" directory in /data/devbase/system/priv-app and then put modified "SystemUI.apk" file into it. Set rwxr-xr-x (755) permissions to "SystemUI" directory, rw-r--r-- (644) permissions to "SystemUI.apk" and then reboot device
Example 3 (De-Bloating a bit more): You can just create empty directories in /data/devbase/system/app (or priv-app) corresponding to applications in /system/app (or priv-app). Alternatively (more advanced method), you can add an app to modded enforceskippingpackages.txt file (you can find it in /data/devbase/system/etc or /data/devbase/system/csc_contents, depending on the original location in /system) and increase number in the 1st line. Second method should not be used by beginners (without a basic knowledge related to UNIX text format)
3. How to manually maintain the newest ROM version:
If you do not care about OTA - you can manually update your device to the newest ROM available @ Sammobile, keeping your original CSC (you need multi-file original FW, I mean separate files for BL/AP/CP/CSC). You need to download 2 ROMs: ROM with the newest changelist and the latest ROM containing your original CSC. Extract both and open in PC Odin BL/AP/CP files from the ROM with highest changelist but open CSC file from the ROM containing your CSC (I recommend to use HOME_CSC_* file to avoid auto-wipe-data). Flash such "mix", re-root and enjoy
Reserved
There is new version available
Changelog
v1.1:
- Added SYSTEMLESS support for /system/framework
- Added SYSTEMLESS support for /system/build.prop (overrides & additions)
- Added major Android update detection (auto-remove mods for older API to prevent bootloops & FCs)
- Added BusyBox bionic (the most stable and respected release)
- Added logging to /data/devbase/last_boot.log (API & errors)
- Added SuperSU boot patcher version checker (exits su.d boot script if < 2.76)
- Added "Please DO NOT wipe /cache" warning in case of encrypted devices and TWRP recovery
- Minor changes & optimizations in the shell code
- Added SYSTEMLESS DevBase uninstaller
Download link:
>> SYSTEMLESS_DevBase_v1.1.zip <<
Since new version has many more features -> there are more possibilities of bootloop (especially if you are playing with framework mods). I have created DevBase remover to let you get out from bootloop. Of course uninstaller does NOT "know" which mod caused the problem, so it will not remove any file from /data/devbase directory, it will remove only /su/su.d/0000000devbase boot script to make your device bootable (again) so you can manually delete problematic mod:
>> SYSTEMLESS_DevBase_remover.zip <<
Another update:
v1.3:
