Yes you will be able to to update your device without any issue.
No your app will not be back unless the app's apk is present in the update package.
Hi,
Do you have any ideea how to re-install an app uninstalled by miskate?
Thanks
This pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.my.demo.app only removes the app from user 0 ( current user )
Sooo to reinstall and app, you will need to factory default your device
Please Help~
I've done the steps on your video https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/ .... but the result is always "failure" not found ... can you please help me. Thank You.
This might be silly, but how do we get the app's identifier, like com.demo.my.app? Settings > Apps does not seem to have that info.

Code:
adb shell pm list packages | grep <search-term>
Example: You can type "chrome" instead of <search-term> to find the Chrome browser.
For graphical solution you can install the app named "Package Name Viewer 2.0" by csing. :good:

Try reinstalling adb drivers for your device.

Would give this a try as soon as i get my hands on a proper pc. The korean apps on my phone are very annoying.
Is there a command to enable apps without factory reset?

I would say
1. Download from android themselves:
developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
2. Extract the .zip file somewhere on your computer and add that folder to your windows PATH variable so you can reference it from anywhere using command prompt (cmd.exe).

pm default-state app.name
Im trying to unistall a system app and after running pm uninstall -k --user 0 'com.icoolme.android.weather' nothing happens.
There no sucess or failure message.
Anyone knows why that happens and what can I do to fix it?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/picture.php?albumid=15288&pictureid=58390
I had to do it twice, because I didn't turn off auto update in Galaxy Apps and didn't uninstall Secure Folder before I started. I'm not 100% of the connection, but somehow Bixby came back, but I uninstalled Secure Folder, turned off Auto Update, and it worked great. They got root for my device like two days later, so kind of pointless, but it helped a lot! Thanks! :good:
please I need help how can I enable an application that I uninstall by mistake ('com.google.android.apps.photos'), without factory reset, besides which is the command that I should use to disable an application?
nota: the options that are in previous comments do not work
MIUI changes things so fast. These config files are reported to break many things on the latest beta releases. Use at your own risk and feel free to experiment as this is a systemless mod.
Prerequisites -
1. Unlocked Boot loader with Magisk & TWRP on it. (You can do this on a locked boot loader & without root using adb but it is risky on MIUI 10 as few bloatware apps are deeply linked to system services in MIUI 10)
2. Terminal Debloater Magisk module. Download it here or from Magisk Manager.
3. Any Terminal Emulator app.
4. Basic de-bloat or Extreme de-bloat config file.
5. Backup (Although this module is harmless if you have magisk & TWRP properly working as we can reinstall all the apps within the TWRP if system breaks but just in case to be on safe side.)
6. Magisk Mount script- Download it here
*Please download this Magisk mount script prior to doing anything because we can reinstall apps by mounting Magisk in TWRP if something breaks.
Switch on USB debugging security settings & Install apps over USB toggles in developer options prior to the de-bloat as they need the MI account to turn them 'ON' which will be inaccessible after the de-bloating. After switching them ON, sign out of MI account, switch off MI cloud sync & Find device(If it's ON) and continue ahead.
If you have everything handy it should be a matter of few seconds to de-bloat.
We're only gonna deal with system apps for now. Uninstall the user spyware apps like UC, Opera browser, Microsoft & Amazon apps by yourself which comes with MIUI.
Guide for starters -
1. Copy this Basic de-bloat or Extreme de-bloat config file to the folder /cache in the root.
2. Reboot into Recovery
3. Install the Terminal Debloater Magisk module using the Magisk Manager.
4. Reboot into the system.
4. Open the terminal emulator app > Type 'su' and press enter > Grant root permissions > Type debloat and press enter.
4. You will see the options to debloat in various categories which are self explanatory. As we have the config file which has a predefined app list to de-bloat stored in /cache folder in root already. Type 'i' which says import config and press enter 2 times.
If you don't want to use the Basic de-bloat or Extreme de-bloat config file, Feel free to debloat independent apps.
5. Reboot 2 times and you're done most probably if nothing breaks.
Read from here if something breaks
If it breaks the system or causes boot-loop which shouldn't be the case as I'm using the same device and thoroughly tested it on 8.9.11, Don't worry! It's damn easy to reinstall all of them in one click by TWRP.
Did you download the Magisk Mount script which I asked to earlier ? If yes, just flash it with TWRP and the magisk will be mounted and accessible in TWRP file explorer. If you didn't download the script earlier, Just adb sideload it in recovery.
After mounting the Magisk in TWRP > Click on Advanced and go to file explorer.
Then delete the app folder of the system app you've uninstalled in /Magisk/terminal_debloater/system/app (/sbin/.core/img/terminal_debloater/system/app) or /Magisk/terminal_debloater/system/priv-app (/sbin/.core/img/terminal_debloater/system/priv-app) then that should undo it.
----------------------
I left out few apps even though they're considered bloatware because they're deeply linked into the system.
For example, Removing chrome breaks apps like Swift Key, Standard Notes, Twitter etc. in MIUI 10. We're gonna de-bloat most of the so called security services found in the security app but few services like app scanning which is found in MIUI Security components app is mandatory for the package manager to properly install apps from unknown sources. Considering all these, after testing it for few runs- I pinned down the apps which are safe to remove without any impact for my usage. It may vary with yours but feel free to suggest or remove any app line from this Basic de-bloat or Extreme de-bloat config file.
Apps which will be de-bloated in basic config and please suggest if I miss something.

[B]Bloatware but not removed[/B]
Battery & Performance, Power detector - breaks battery stats (Remove it on your own if you don't need it or you use alternatives like Better Battery Stats)
Bluetooth MIUI - comes in handy sometimes and linked to system Bluetooth service (Removed in Extreme de-bloat config file.)
Calculator - I didn't care to remove it (Removed in Extreme de-bloat config file.)
Chrome - breaks many apps
CIT & CIT QR - I think you can remove it if you don't need hardware tests (Removed in Extreme de-bloat config file.)
Clock - handy app linked to core services (Removed in Extreme de-bloat config file.)
Compass - You can remove if you don't use (Removed in Extreme de-bloat config file.)
Default print service, Google text to speech engine, MI Wallpaper, Live wallpaper picker, Photo screen saver, Photos, Quick ball, Print service recommendation, print spooler, talkback, Youtube, Drive, Maps, Updater, Audio effect, Wallpaper cropper, Weather & Weather service provider- You can remove all of these if you don't use and hopefully it wouldn't cause issues like chrome did. (Removed in Extreme de-bloat config file.)
Joyose - breaks default SMS app. You can install any other messages app and remove this (Removed in Extreme de-bloat config file.)
RTMICloudEngine - breaks Phone app. You can install Google Dialer app and remove this (Removed in Extreme de-bloat config file.)
MI Security components - breaks app installation
Sms extra - sometimes it breaks default SMS app (Removed in Extreme de-bloat config file.)
Downloads & MI drop, for some strange reason, they won't go away (Remove them with Titanium backup or adb commands below)
Files - needed by some apps which don't have storage permission like Exif data remover
Google Play services & Play store - Almost everybody needs it (You can remove google app)
Poco launcher - didn't include it in the config file as many wouldn't have a backup launcher in hand which causes system UI to crash (You can remove it by installing any launcher you prefer) (Removed in Extreme de-bloat config file.)
Scanner - Strangely, this app breaks the package manager and causes it to crash (Removed in Extreme de-bloat config file and package manager won't crash anymore)
Security - biggest bloatware of MIUI which can't be uninstalled as it's deeply integrated into settings to access permissions, data usage, battery stats etc (Go into settings of this app and switch off everything especially the security scan which scans every app and sends the data to cloud.
Telemetry j service - It wouldn't go away with this magisk module. Disable it with Titanium backup app.
Updated and tested over new beta 8.9.20 (13/09/2018)
This is a new Extreme de-bloat config file. To use this config - Just follow the instructions which I have already mentioned above.
Debloated few other MIUI services like Dialer, SMS, Gallery apps & you can replace them with trusted alternatives of your choice. Removed RT MI Cloud SDK, Joyose, Xiaomi Service Framework(battery drainer) which were required by MIUI phone-SMS apps previously and we no longer need them as we have replaced most of the services.
This almost de-bloats everything including basic apps like Clock. Retained few services like battery & performance because removing such services causes some instability in settings app as they're deeply integrated but they do send data to Xiaomi IP addresses every minute which is very suspicious. Hence, use AF Wall+ or Net guard to block their network connections.
Few apps like Facebook services, Facebook app installer, Mi Drop refuse to uninstall with this Magisk Module. Kick them out using adb shell/Titanium backup app.
adb commands for removing leftovers
Code:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.katana
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.system
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.appmanager
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.services
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.xiaomi.midrop.overlay
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.xiaomi.midrop
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.mfashiongallery.emag
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.android.fashiongallery
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.videoplayer.overlay
This is the maximum I could get in this de-bloating journey of MIUI 10 so far and it's pretty stable. You can turn off MIUI optimizations in developer options for better RAM management. (Beware! Permissions & DPI gets reset and it's pretty easy to dial them back.)
Update (14/11/2018)
Considering the new update of the module which needed the new config files for the import to work, I Updated the entire OP with the new config files.
Procedure is still the same but it needs the new config files.
You can download the new config files here Basic de-bloat / Extreme de-bloat.
If you are still using the old version and need the config files - Grab them here Basic de-bloat or Extreme de-bloat
Credits
@veez21 for his wonderful debloater module which is extremely safe & easy to use.
@mohan_168 for giving me the basic idea of bloatware in MIUI 9 which helped to fasten the things.
MIUI team for spoiling the beautiful MIUI(5/6/7) and filled it with bloatware ads. UC browser & Game booster...seriously ??
Worked, not sure why but it did not remove following apps on my device (have run the debloater twice but no luck):
Mi File Explorer
Duo
MSA
facebook-appmanager
facebook-installer
facebook-services
Also, somehow, now I can not access Dual Apps under settings, kindly help to resolve dual apps access
Wont this tool help with debloating?

You can uninstall Duo by hand now as it no longer linked to system. I'm looking into the Facebook-appmanager & facebook-installer. As of now they sound stubborn for a systemless uninstall. For now, I have blocked the from accessing internet through AfWall+.
Meanwhile, you can remove the leftovers with adb commands
adb shell
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.katana
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.system
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.appmanager
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.services
MSA & File explorer were removed with the above module for me but you can try using adb commands to uninstall them as they're pretty safeto remove.
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.systemAdSolution
Sorry, I don't have any idea about Dual apps as I'm not sure about an app which is responsible for dual apps to work. You can try reinstalling suspected system apps by trial & error method and check which app is responsible for that. Although I consider such services as bloat which constantly calls home but your opinion may vary.

It will but this method is safer as you can easily reinstall the apps from recovery if system breaks or stuck in bootloop.

if you need the MI cloud sync, just open the config file which I attached below and omit the lines which has the name 'sync' in them along with 'MI account' app before placing it in the cache directory.

Did you root the phone with supersu prior to Magisk? If that's the case- Wipe data and flash Magisk with flashable zip of Disable force encryption.

Encryption zip has magisk. It's older version but it's working. Just update it. It's working fine. Installing it from zip didn't work for me too

so after your config debloat.. can i still login to my mi account? also i want the sync to stay
We are gonna de-bloat most of the so called security services found in the security app but few services like app scanning which is found in MIUI Security components app is mandatory for the package manager to properly install apps from unknown sources.
For this, you Can download - Package installer 8.1.0-4879956 By Google LLC.
You can uninstall the bloat from Xiaomi

You can skip login to Xiaomi when you install miui.

Cool. I thought so but was too lazy. That's a neat idea. Right now blocking those all left over bloat with AF wall+.
Can someone explain the put that file in cache part? I don't know where cache folder is, and also the file show 410 forbidden error to me
Since there's no thread related to safe-to-remove system bloatware/googleware, I decided to make one.
I'm counting on your help to expand this list.
Tested
Chrome
Alternatives: Firefox, Brave, Waterfox.
Or you could simply uninstall it as a system APP and reinstall it as a user APP. There's definitely no need for Chrome to be a system APP.
Contacts
Alternatives: Simple Contacts Pro, fully open-source (paid or free if you download it through F-Droid, but won't get advanced customizations), Contacts+.
I also advise you to remove Google Contacts as a system APP and reinstall it as an user APP if you wish to keep it, there's no reason for Google Contacts to be a system APP.
Gmail
This one actually depends on your email provider, since I don't use gmail at all, I completely uninstalled this.
Also I suggest looking at ProtonMail, it's an email provider mostly focused on user data protection (through strict Swiss data protection laws) and privacy.
Then again, if you wish to keep this APP, I suggest uninstalling it and reinstall it as an user APP.
Digital Wellbeing
If you use this functionality on settings you may want to keep it, I uninstalled it.
Also I noticed that ever since I uninstalled this APP, there's an error on logcat showing that something failed to connect to this APP. However it's just a log, despite that everything seems to be working great.
Google Files/Files Go
If you managed to upgrade from Android 8 to Android 9, you most likely kept the standard system APP "Files", however if you flashed Android 9 from scratch, the standard system APP "Files" becomes hidden, which you may unhide it using this app. (I didn't test it). You can also use FileManager by Xiaomi.
Or if you're like me and prefer open-source APPs, I installed Simple File Manager Pro, it supports root (paid or free if you download it through F-Droid, but won't get advanced customizations) or this free and simple file manager.
If you wish to keep Files Go (Google Files) you can also uninstall is as a system APP and reinstall it as an user APP.
Calendar
At this point there's not much calendar APPs out there with cloud sync support, so I managed to stick to Google Calendar, although I uninstalled it as a system APP and reinstalled it as an user APP. I know I said this countless times but I'm extremely against contributing to Google's currently huge power on user personal data, so I try to be as google-less as possible.
Lens
Don't know what this actually does, but Android 8 didn't have it and I looked it up somewhere and some people said that it was safe to remove, and so far so good.
You can read more about it here.
Google
Safe to remove, however your search box widget becomes pretty useless. I actually don't mind at all, it even switches to dark theme mode.
Action Services
From what I've read, this APP is responsible for the APP suggestions on your All-APPs menu, so you'll get some errors when uninstall this. To avoid the errors you have to deactivate APP suggestions first:
Long Press Home-Screen > Home Settings > Suggestions > Apps (Disable this)
And now you're free to uninstall this.
Photos
Definitely not keeping this one, with cloud storage and such.
Replaced with, once again, Simple Gallery Pro (paid or free if you download it through F-Droid, but won't get advanced customizations). You can also use LeafPic which is also open-source and looks great but I didn't actually test it.
Google Maps
I use this, however I uninstalled as a system APP and reinstalled as an user APP.
I'm currently slowly trying to migrate to Waze even though it was bought by Google.
YouTube
I occasionally use it, so I made it an user APP.
Probably safe-to-remove but not tested
Device Health Services
Does anyone know what this APP is responsible for?
Gboard
I don't use it but I didn't uninstall it because it may be required for first-time password input when turning on the device.
When I switch to another keyboard besides Google or SwiftKey (currently using), there's a popup saying "Note: After a reboot, this app can't start until you unlock your phone.", that's why I didn't uninstall it.
Messages
Unfortunately I don't know any good enough Messaging APP to replace Google Messages.
I know there used to be Silence, it even supported P2P encryption but I think it was discontinued. There's also Textra although not open-source.
Feedback
When trying to uninstall this system APP it's shown that it is a Key module, although I really doubt it really is.

@lbsilva Device Health Services is battery optimisation.
One of the very few useful threads for this device. Bravo! Ideally, once there is a consensus on which packages can be removed without crippling the phone some knowledgeable person should make a script to do the job, either something to flash or a bash + adb to do it from desktop.
I found this .bat file, I think it's reusable with those above but only in Windows.
Wouldnt recommend removing anything to do with qualcomm or networking, be warned.
OP, when you say "remove", do you mean "disable so it can't run", or "completely wipe it off the phone"?
I've got a Blu Life One X3, rooted with TWRP and Magisk. What I describe below is my second attempt to debloat the phone. The first attempt, I just uninstalled unwanted apps from the current user via ADB.
Example:
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 -k com.android.egg
I entered into TWRP Recovery Mode and deleted the /system/app and /system/priv-app directories for the apps I didn't want. Upon booting, the phone went through the boot animation and music jingle, then stopped. I left it overnight, since it was late and I wanted to see if it'd work its way to a full boot. It didn't, so I recovered with the out-of-box Nandroid backup I'd taken.
What's strange is that the phone worked fine when the very same apps were just disabled (during my first attempt), but locked up when those apps were deleted from the phone.
Is there something else I need to edit?
How to uninstall without using command line? Is there any some GUI application to uninstall this??
*By the way how to download youtube vanced, i search it in magisk download , there's nothing

If you are rooted, download titanium backup from playstore and have fun.
For yt Vanced, try clearing the repo cache from magisk's settings and search again. Or search the module here on XDA and add it manually.
Edit: looks like Google screwd things up and made chrome almost a dependency or it's an issue just on my device. On Oreo, Gmail stops working after chrome removal. Looks like Gmail is now dependent of chrome webview, it's crashing when using Android system webview.
Edit 2: nevermind, after updating Android system webview, Gmail app has started working again.
great thread, thanks
I found some apps/services that you've successfully disabled. Just wanna ask if, is this universal? I mean I have realme phone and planning to disable all the same apps/services which you were tried already.
So, this is a pseudo-custom rom you are after, why not use the real thing? I'm assuming this is Android 9 since 10 is a total f**k. Why not use the real thing, a custom rom? I recommend AOSiP Pizza since it's the one I've been using for a long time and it proved solid. The only thing I replaced was gallery with Simple gallery and I use MicroG for what it's worth. This removing stuff from gappsed AOSP is totally ridiculous and counter productive, you do that with Miui and such if you really care about a particular UI but not with plain Android, that's nonsense.
Found this useful tool on git last year.
It allows a lot of nice little things among which uninstall/reinstall/disable/enable system apps and services on demand without root and without passes through adb/fastboot command lines.
And it was tested with Q too.
Also feedback app was safely uninstalled.
Feel free to try it.
This is the link: https://github.com/Szaki/XiaomiADBFastbootTools
Read carefully readme.md and faq before use it.
How can I restore some critical packages under TWRP (MIUI11)? I'm testing limits of what can I delete without bricking it and reinstalling ROM every time after that is very tiresome (boot into recovery, wipe cache and data, reinstall MIUI, boot into system, remove tested apps, then restore settings and try again).
There has to be a proper way to restore some app like, for example, com.xiaomi.finddevice

Magisk + terminal debloater.
If you break it, use TWRP to fix.
Look under /data/adb/modules/terminal_debloater.

Yeah, I have debloater but I'm talking about doing it under TWRP when system isnt even loaded, debloater is a module that works in OS. In TWRP recovery your terminal is barebone core loaded by recovery itself, there is absolutely no relation to the system and apps installed, no ADB environment, no app [meta]data.

I meant to use debloater to hide the app and you can then fix it from TWRP if it doesn't work. You could always setup the files it uses from TWRP but I guess that'd be harder to do.
I don't know how adb uninstall hides but you should be able to reverse that from TWRP too (likely removing some files).
If you mount /system just move things and move them back if it fails.

How would I fix it?
Does the "debloater" make extra unnecessary copies of APK when those already exist on system partition?

No, it hides them systemlessly, using files in /data/adb/modules/terminal_debloater/system.

Based on this: https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
I tried this:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.carrierdefaultapp
and to restore:
cmd package install-existing com.android.carrierdefaultapp
What I found was that with the app installed, I had some empty directories under /data/misc/profiles/ref/com.android.carrierdefaultapp and /data/misc/profiles/cur/0/com.android.carrierdefaultapp. When I removed the app, those directories were not present.
It's just a guess... but you could possibly save the contents of /data/misc/profiles (eg. tar cf /sdcard/profiles.tar /data/misc/profiles), pm uninstall your app and if it fails to boot, untar that from TWRP? Maybe test that theory with an app you know won't hurt before you do it for real
Note that neither terminal debloater (which uses mount tricks to hide system apps) or pmuninstall will actually remove files from /system. If you actually remove files from /system then the only way to get them back is to put them back.

usually I find package names by using ApkInfo app from Playstore. If you have uninstalled some system apps and can remember their package names then reinstall by using
Code:
adb shell pm reinstall --user 0 "packagename"
My Oppo A54 5g not working because find in assistance day 10 march.

Good afternoon,
I use NFC payments with Google pay, however I only switch on NFC when making the payments. I have noticed that after awhile of inactivity that the NFC default payment keeps switching back to MI wallet. Is there any way to completely disable MI wallet as the default or to stop it happening without changing the rom firmware etc.

Hi, yes there is a way to disable my wallet without root and without costum rom. Using ADB and just enter the command
Code:
adb shell pm disable-user (mi pay package name)
to find out the package name mi pay you have to download this application. And if you want to uninstall mi pay in general, you can use the command
Code:
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 (mi pay package name)
