Debloat OOS 10.3.1

Hi all,
You must be aware that oneplus has added fake partition in new update. Because of this, none of scripts/ file managers with root are able to de-bloat 10.3.1. I know that there are some workarounds like overlay fix but there is no clear guide on how to use that.
It would really help if someone can give some guidelines

You can use either xXx no limits either debloater(terminal emulator) magisk module to debloat.
Both do exactly that job.
For the second you will need terminal emulator app(play store) and busybox magisk module installed in order to debloat
When open terminal app type
"su debloat" hit enter
Again type
"debloat h" and choose on of the 5 option to navigate and debloat what you want to.

xXx no limits gave bootloop so I am staying away from that. i tried debloater module but it did not remove anything. I tried in termux app. Busybox wasnt installed, is it why the module didnt work?

Busybox needs to be installed as I said otherwise you can't debloat using terminal.
As for xXx never had issue (now I'm on latest 9.9)and using many years even when had 5T device.

Yes I think i got in bootloop because I had overlay fix module installed . Or may be I edited profile incorrectly. Not sure.
I have installed busybox just now. will test and confirm.

I tried with busybox installed. debloater says uninstalled but does nothing.

Select each one app and will show you an option to uninstalled it through app menu
Otherwise no other solution but using xXx.
On 10.0.4 and open beta 8/9 didn't had any issue.

checked that but its not there. only option is to enable/disable and force stop.

I used xxx module and debloted my oos 10.3.1. Its just that you can remove everything, i can share my xxx profile if anyone wants

I used xXx for the performance tweaks and debloating the apps I had disabled .oh and of course Viper.?

I have no issues deleting anything on 10.3.1 with root explorer. Deleting from system, product, vendor all work. If it doesn't reflash Magisk from within Magisk Manager and choose direct install and make sure you uncheck the preserve dm-verity check box first.

Or why not install the Titanium Backup app to freeze or remove anything?

Need Help for downloading GApps for LineageOS 17.1

Hello;
I am perhaps the newest member of the forum and I am in urgent need of assistance.
My problem:
I was unable to install the associated GApps file while installing the LineageOS 17.1 system on my LG G3 D855 phone. During the installation, the device gave an error warning -I think Error 70- and I completed the installation before I could install the GApss file.
Now; LineageOS 17.1 is installed on my device. However, there is no Google Play application on my device.
How should I go about installing Google Play applications on my device?
As someone who knows very little about installing new software on the phone, I have been able to do this much. Keeping this in mind, I will be happy if you can give me the solution suggestions, starting from the simplest possible.
Thanks..

[ROM][11.0][Unofficial] LineageOS 18.1 with microG [hotdogb][Updated 05/09]

This is my daily driver that I have decided to share. With the increase of big tech and government overreach in our lives, I felt more of a desire to move away from Google and the similar. Hotdogb isn't supported by other similar OS' so built this from microG/LineageOS source and is fully functional.
Based on Android 11
Last Updated: May 5th
Kernel Source: GitHub
Donate if you enjoy!​Changelogs:
05.09.2021 - Updated to LineageOS nightly 05.09.2021. Full changelog can be found at https://download.lineageos.org/hotdogb/changes.
05.05.2021 - Initial Release.
What is this?
This is LineageOS with all closed-source binary Google blobs removed and replaced with microG. I.E no Play services or GAPPS. UnifiedNLP is used as networking location provider vice Google's NLP. F-Droid is installed by default providing alternative app store. However, with Aurora store you can still install Google Play store apps with ease (requires additional installations).
Installation
Since this is a fork of LineageOS you can follow the same installation guide they provide here. Just ensure you are on Lineage recovery and ready to sideload LineageOS, use our ROM for that step.
Issues
None known. Post below if you have any.
Post Installation
- open the microG app --> Self-Check sections are successful.
Location services
- By default, MozillaNlpbackend, which uses Mozilla location service and NominatimNlpBackend, which uses Mapquest's Noninatim service; are disabled by default. Open microG app --> Location modules and enable whichever ones you prefer. Afterwards reboot device.
Other information
Google Play Store Alternative
If you want full access to normal android Play Store apps do the following:
Open F-Droid app. Search for Aurora Store and install. Once opened select the appropriate option, generally option #1 will be the most common used with this ROM as long as it has not been modified by the user. Once setup you will have access to all applications as normal.
Some apps require play services and I cannot use them, please help!
This will require both SU and Magisk installed, which is not provided in our base rom. Once you have achieved SU with Magisk you will need to read over and install NanoDroid which can be found here XDA| Website.
SuperUser
***Ensure boot.img date matches the date of the ROM you are installing. DO NOT use this boot.img with a different ROM.***
***This guide assumes you already have a working ADB/Fastboot.***
Download boot.img below to your phones storage.
Download latest Magisk apk from here to your device and install it.
Open Magisk on your phone. Click the Magisk Install option within the app.
For method "Select and Patch a File"
Select the boot.img you downloaded in Step 1.
Once the process is complete a Magisk patched boot.img will be in the Downloads folder on your phone. Drag it to a working folder on your Computer.
Ensure your has ADB debugging enabled in Developer Options settings and that your PC is authorized.
Open Command Prompt on your PC and run ADB Devices. Verify your phone is listed.
In Command Prompt run "ADB reboot bootloader". You will notice the phone reboot.
Once on Fastboot screen in Command Prompt run "Fastboot devices", ensure your phone is listed.
In Command Prompt run "Fastboot flash boot bootname.img. Replacing bootname with the name of your Magisk boot.img.
Once done start the device and load Magisk to confirm.

Thanks for posting, I was looking to switch over to microG now with LOS 18.1 for hotdogb
Just wanna confirm, will these builds support OTA updater/dirty flashing for updates?

You will be able to dirty flash future updates similiar to LOS. Just be aware if you have modded any system files i.e. NanoDroid system install vice using Magisk; then you will have to reapply after dirty flash.
I'm working on OTA updates in the next release, just haven't set the hosting up at the moment.

Can I flash this right over top of the Official Lineage for HotdogB, or do I have to go stock 1st?
Thanks

I would recommend loading recovery Factory Reset, then Format data / factory reset. Dirty flash might work, but I have not tested it. It also may come with unwanted consequences.

I was going to factory reset anyways, since I never really made the Official Lineage a daily driver. I was really waiting for MicroG before I went all out.
Thanks for the effort.

All installed, and all the boxes are checked in MicroG! Thanks!

No worries, I added the boot.img in case anyone wants to patch with Magisk. I had to do so and also install NanoDroid as a Magisk module to use a few apps that were expecting play store services.

Once you go with MicroG you are out of the Google Eco System. And dont try to log in as they may wipe out your email and cancel you. I just imported my contacts, as suggested.

Use MicroG to be the go-between for Google eco. You can login through MicroG if you have an app that is in need of it and MicroG will be the in-between.

I heard it is against the terms, so it is safe to log into microg and get the apps that you paid for?

Of course its against their terms and you can login, but there is always the risk your account is banned. Though I have never had an issue.
If you're weary you can always make a separate Google account and use to try it out.

Question [SOLVED] Revanced working?

Did anyone try installing revanced manager on the P7P? Get it working?
I installed the manager and it doesn't seem to see when I patch the youtube apk. It goes through the process of patching the youtube apk. I installed using non-root methods and when I try to open the newly installed apk that revanced patches, it just sits on a black screen.
When I tried installing with the root method, the apk is not visible in the app drawer.
EDIT: Confirmed working, many different ways... Revanced builder using Windows, revanced builder using android, rooted and non-rooted. Rooted using revanced manager. Rooted using magisk module.

I didn't use the manager, I used the builder and that was fine.

Do you have a link to the builder and method you used?
Did you use the android phone method or windows injection method of builder?

I think I found my problem. When using the revanced manager, they don't recommend using dpi related apks or split apks but installing a no dpi apk instead. If you do, they say it causes issues of not loading.

Agreed, they have been working on the builder much longer than the manager.
And if memory serves me, the windows version doesn't require micro g to install it on the phone. Is that correct or do you need it?

I built it with micro G because it said to but I don't know if it was necessary or not.

Works for me using revanced manager non root

I saw this and was trying to use the builder because it looks like one of the options is to detach the app from the market so it's not constantly updating and needing redone. I've tried several times and keep getting this below. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

I'm having problems with this using revanced manager. patches ok and installs ok (root), works fine for a bit, then starts to crash on start. any clues?
magisk module seems to work but includes the "theme" patch which gives it a black theme rather than dark.
edit: also tried non root method with micro g but chromecast doesn't work. I'm stuck.

Download the non dpi version of the app. Don't get the multi APK version.

just for anyone else following this later, I sorted this out. I actually have youtube premiere because it's the only way to have no adverts on the chromecast. so I think some of the no advert patches might have been conflicting. so I just applied the bare minimum patches I wanted, swipe gestures sponsor block and remember resolution, after that it was fine.

I fixed the problem in root version
1/ install ur patch (as root, so u don't need to allow microg )
2/ install as root (close the app without oppening youtube)
3/ go to magisk and configure deny list
4/ do like that in pic and restart ur device
5/ run youtube without any problem

How are you dealing with the update blockign so far? I have tryed Update Locker, but it seems that it still updates the app and ads reapper.

I recently wiped the device as part of the steps for enabling 32 bit app support, ever since then I have been unable to re-install youtube vanced. Prior to wiping the device I had no issues running youtube vanced.... The device is a T-Mobile variant, bootloader unlocked and rooted with Magisk Delta installed. I saw a post about running the debloater module to remove youtube and reinstall vanced but this did not work for me :/ Any suggestions/tips or other members that have encountered this issue? I will attach a screenshot of the errors.
Edit to Include the solution for anybody else who encounters this: install the Vanced Magisk module- https://github.com/j-hc/revanced-magisk-module/releases

use app de-bloater (APK + magisk module) to uninstall completely YouTube and YouTube music before u try to install Vance's.

You can also try YouTube ReVanced (no root needed)

Use the magisk module, https://github.com/j-hc/revanced-magisk-module/releases

This is exactly what I did. Youtube was entirely removed before attempting to install Vanced.

that's weird. Had same problem and it worked for me. This error says you have installed later version on this app so you did not uninstall it completely then

Thank you my friend This worked for me

Hello, I could only make it work with SystemlessDebloater:
1) Install the module using Magisk, do not reboot phone.
2) In download directory chang file SystemlessDebloaterList.sh to have REPLACE="YouTube" (case matters)
3) Install the module again.
4) It should detect package com.google.android.youtube, reboot and then vanced youtube installer worked.

FYI that is reVanced not Vanced. Vanced is currently no longer in development and if far different to what you are used to with Vanced. You will also likely need to sideload a specific version of the YouTube apk and install that for all/most patches to work. Currently its sitting at 18.49.36 but until not so long ago (not sure when) it was 17.49.37 which for example I am currently on.

Huh, thanks. never heard of this and I honestly just always uninstalled first. I guess this is just a convenience or an improvement to the process as I can't imagine a case for myself where I couldn't just uninstall with/without backing up user data first and then downgrade.

This method works for me! My question is: Can we remove the module after succesfull installation of Vanced? Or if we remove the module we get stuck again with bloatware Youtube app?
If i remove just the config.cfg file ( New Version create .cfg file in Download ) would also return the Youtube bloatware app?
