Would I still be able to update my software without issues in my Galaxy s9 for instance after removing bloat via this method?? If yes, would it bring the apps back??

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).

There technically is a way. Just not as "graceful"

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

I believe you need root access to remove some essential google packages, even with adb. But I found you can uninstall some packages if you get the playstore package name. I can't post links yet but package name on Google Play is "Google VR Services"
or try
Code:
adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.DELETE -d package:<your app package>
(find the VR package name and run that command)
Try these i was only able to remove daydream the others just freeze
com.google.vr.vrcore
com.google.android.vr.inputmethod - (daydream)
com google.vr.apps.ornament
It appears that some apps that come pre installed on the 8t can be deleted...rather than disabled. For example, Google One.
If I delete them, will they reinstall with a factory reset or were they installed separate from the factory image?
Been several years since I had a new phone and am use to only being able to disable pre installed apps.
Thanks
Well if you root you can debloat it

You can use ABD for delete your apps, follow the guide, you can create a txt file with all your adb commands and copy/past once
the best link for all method/scrits : here
the adb method link directly : here

False... You can easily debloat/delete apps from adb without root, on all smartphone, OnePlus, Sasmsung Redmi/Xiaomi
Best way is obviously to use adb method if you're not willing to root. Enter adb shell
Code:
adb shell
A simple search like this will give all packages with google in it's name. You can replace 'google' with 'oneplus' or 'facebook' etc to find the package names.
Code:
pm list packages | grep 'google'
You can use this to delete the app after finding package name using this.
Code:
pm uninstall --user 0 com.facebook.appmanager
Note that this removes apps only from default user and not from system. They will return if you do a factory reset.

Package Info from the PlayStore is also another good way to see the package names of what is installed to make the apps you want to get rid of easier to remove. Personally, I save a text file of the apps I remove for each device I have to make it easier to remove them if I ever have to factory reset the device or remove them for others.
Hi. I have a Samsung A12 cell, and I have the apps LABD, Package Names, and Clipboard notes to assist with rooting my phone.
I have done this numerous times once I discovered the procedure. But today, after a recent Samsung update, I cannot root my phone.
I verified that I turned on Wireless Debugging 1st then USB debugging in that order. I checked my steps and still the same result.
I have been researching if there is another pm command rather than the one I've used as follows:
pm uninstall --user 0 (package name)
The Samsung Update added apps I had removed, i.e., facebook manager, etc. and more plus, I tried removing it and then AR emojis. So, it will not remove anything.
I am not a developer. Just a person who wants choices. Recently, Samsung added a default printer. My packages apps shows it under USER APPS so I began to root my phone to get rid of it.
Can someone kindly help me with what command(s) I need to use? I appreciate it very much. Thank you.
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)
