Is there a simple way to remove or disable the built-in apps like Compass, Fit, "Take a note drink more water", "Remind me to go for a run at 7am" and similar stuff from this watch? I have all these little cards for crap that I'll never use. I managed to turn off all sort of settings for Fit, but it still shows up on my watch, just greyed out.
Shows up using battery for me too with fit disabled...

If this is just a wrapper around "adb shell pm disable <packagename>", then it wont work without root. I was unable to disable the built-in apps in /system as shell user. I did manage to do it as root. It seems really weird that on android phone you can disable system apps without needing special permissions, but on the watch, I havent seen where you can do it.

Same here. Fit disabled. Strange...
Brightness set to 1. Always on disabled. Get 4 days with moderate usage, 2 days with heavy. Shut watch off at bedtime.
The Fit thing is driving me nuts, too. I installed FIT on my phone and said "Don't monitor"... still using battery. Uninstalled hoping it would remove it from the Watch. Nope.
remove fit app
Hi, any news how remove app "FIT" from watch?????
I got this app fully functional.
It lets me uninstall apps directly from the watch, without using a pc and ADB commands.
Push it with ADB to the watch, I´m searching a method to install apk directly from the watch.

I believe there is a way to hard block the Fit app. If you can get your watch into TWRP recovery (requires root), wipe dalvik cache, cache and data, and reboot your phone. once it boots it will begin the initialization program for the watch and it will ask you whether or not you want to activate Fit and another app (compass?). Tap 'No thanks" and it may never initialize on your watch.
To remove fit app
Standard disclaimer: this will permanently remove the "Fit" application from your watch. YOU DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK. It is not my problem if you screw up ~your~ watch. This worked for me, your mileage WILL vary.
Requires: ADB and USB dock for the watch. Rooted watch.
I'm running Ghoma 2.3, don't know if this works on stock-rooted.
I use LINUX when doing any of these operations, with Windows it should also work, YMMV and you will have to provide your own path for backing up the apk.
adb pull /system/app/FitnessPrebuiltWearable/FitnessPrebuiltWearable.apk [your backup path here]
adb shell "su -c 'mount -o remount,rw /system'"
adb shell "su -c 'rm /system/app/FitnessPrebuiltWearable/FitnessPrebuiltWearable.apk'"
adb reboot
Results on MY watch: Slightly improved battery life, greatly improved performance, likely because its not always polling the accelerometers/gyros for information.

Hi there,
I struggle for a while to make this work and couldn't find any help in relevant devices' forums. Hopefully, this is a simple issue with a simple solution.
So, ever since I updated to nougat and even Oreo, with one plus 3T and ph1, the latter still on nougat, all stock, unrooted, greenify complains every once in a while that can't hibernate automatically, so it prompts me to either revise my lock settings or do it manually.
For instance, on this device, to keep things simple, I only lock from power button or when display timeouts by itself. Automatically lock is set to 1 minute. Power button is set to not instantly lock.
Also, in battery optimization settings, greenify shows as not optimized. I never keep my phone on battery saving or other exotic mode.
Thanks for any help.

May be wipe data and cache of Greenify or uninstall and reinstall it.

Thanks.Have tried the idea, several times.
For instance, on op3 I had to factory reset even after Oreo update. I also factory reset ph1 a few days ago due to phone being all sorts of slow. I didn't even enable nova dt2s gesture to keep it simple. Yesterday I uninstalled the beta and reverted back to normal app, still no luck.
I assume there's gotta be something simple such as a step I forgot?
To reiterate my issue, greenify sometimes says the auto hibernate stopped working so I have to use it manual mode.

I've seen this screen on android 8 for the first time after several updates of the greenify app... Searching on other forums people suggest reinstall and clean data of the greenify but reading replies, the issue still remains so I doubt on trying this.
Maybe it's due to google plans of completely removing accessibility..?!

My old LG G8X would show battery usage stats from the last charging session vs the Android 12 last 24 hour period. Is there anything that will show battery usage from the last charging session and not only the last 24 hours? AccuBattery doesn't seem to do this and neither does Android 12. If either can do this then please tell me how to configure for that. Thank you.
Accubattery history should show overall charge taken and discharge.
Unless that's another app Android 11/12 killed...

Did you make it work on the Pixel 6? Tried it and seems to be broken. At least the latest versions.

Yes, I finally did get it to work but it was not as straightforward as it should have been. The version I use is 2.6-382 and you need to run through the adb permissions. Where are you getting stuck?

I did add the permissions but keep getting the following error (checking the permissions option): STATUS: Failed: Transaction failed on small parcel; remote process probably die
Also, no stats would be retrieved.

Trying to remember how I finally got it. I do know that I had to force close and reboot after installation and the adb commands otherwise they would still show as 'needing permissions' or something like that. Even now I still get no stats on the Summary page sometimes but if I go to partial wakelocks or alarms I see stats. It's very iffy although lately it's been fine. (past week) I don't think it's a P6 issue because I had the same thing on my P5. The dev has mentioned that Android has some new security features that inhibit the function and we tried out a few betas to no avail. Then we all went back to the 382 version.
So try a FC and reboot. Plug it in and see if you can get some stats after a few minutes. If you still get permissions errors try redoing the adb commands. Stick with it you'll get it. I really needed to get a handle on battery life so I downloaded AccuBattery and that works pretty well. It just doesn't show you wakelocks or alarms.
Try 3C All-in-One Toolbox it comes with a Battery manager, 4.4 stars on Play Store.
Hi.
So, I edited a Waze apk to work with Notify applications for Amazfit and Mi Band watches.
I have a data plan that I can use Waze without reducing my mobile data so I thought if the Notify apllication dev made Google Maps work, I can make Waze to work with Notify.
It took me around a week to make it work but I think it was worth it.
This .zip that attached contains the modded .apk, a notify_pass.txt and a directions.json
Virustotal link for the apk: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file...95f9bdbe49f6277f0793f4f767734745ddc?nocache=1
That alerts are false positive because the .apk is signed with debug key.
Instructions for installation:
1. Import the directions.json by looking this video:
Your browser is not able to display this video.
2. Place the notify_pass.txt in your phones internal storage. This .txt is needed for Waze mod to work. In Notify you have to enable Tasker integration. If you set a password for it, then write the same password in this .txt also.
If you don't use password for it then delete the notify_pass.txt content and leave it blank (It's still has to be placed in phones internal storage!)
3. After these steps are done, just connect to your watch, then open Waze and start navigating.
(DONT FORGET TO GIVE STORAGE PERMISSIONS FOR WAZE)
If the next instruction is X km long it will send navigation notifications to watch at every 500m.
If the next instruction is X m long it will send navigation notifications to watch at every 50m.
Some log files are generated in the internal phone storage. DONT DELETE THEM: (the modded apk reads data from them, street name, direction etc...)
If you have any questions or suggestion contact me on telegram: https://t.me/Butterfly3ffect
Changelog:
2022.11.01:
- Updated Waze .apk to latest stable
- Hopefully fixed a crash (again)
- Minor changes in my codes: They did something and I wasn't able to use my old code to scrape data from the .apk
(So now it works again)
Thank you for uploading it. the only thing I did not understand is how to activate it tasker through the notify

Hi. You sure it's that causing that? I'm using it (also used it multiple times on mobile network) with no issues. No force close, crash, anything. Can you provide a screen recording about the auto closing?

Updated to latest beta .apk and hopefully fixed that crash now (again).
I tested it multiple times didnt crash for me.
If it still crashes for you, please reply back.

Install GSam Battery Monitor and after a long time, check what causes the most battery consumption.
If it's the Android System or Kernel, the problem could be services that run in a way that's hard to control, so then start e.g. by disabling unnecessary Google and Samsung Services functionality.
This standby battery drain is after one UI 5 update, I have tried in putting the phone in safe mode , maintainace mode , disabling all networking like Bluetooth, location, WiFi, sim cards etc , I have tried in Aeroplane mode , I have tried wiping cache partition and repairing apps . I have also tried resetting the device, I have been facing the issue for past 2 months after one UI 5 update, I have tried contacting samsung support multiple times all I got is we are analysing logs and nothing else . I am so frustrated with this issue.

This is the result from Gsam battery monitor, Android system and kernel caused the most drains.
Like I said, you have to disable a lot of services before you get decent battery usage.
If it wasn't necessary, going back to Android is still possible.
Two LTE connections eat up battery power.

I previously deleted edge panels on my Samsung phone, but now I want to reinstall it. When I use the command:
adb shell cmd package install-existing com.samsung.android.app.cocktailbarservice it does show up in settings. But when I try to enable it, nothing happens.
Is there another package that needs to be reinstalled or did I just completely break the function.

Factory reset will fix it

That cocktail service one is needed for one if memory serves me correctly.
Anything with "egde" in it.

You're welcome, hope this helps.
This is on a N10+ running on Pie. In Android 10 and above there may be more "egde" system apps added to preserve functionality.
Beware of uninstalling the numerous Samsung system apps unless you know exactly what they do. Target the resource and power hogs; most just sit there unless called upon and use very little resources. Many modify the UI and as such are useful.

I was careful when uninstalling. I just didn't think I'd have a use for edge panels. I guess I'll just have to factory reset :/

Probably best to find the root cause rather than factory reset if possible as otherwise the issue will likely reoccur. Go into settings, do a search for "edge panel", see if it pulls it up and if it opens. It can be less than straight forward at times when setting it up.
The Edge cut/paste panel is real handy, and the Smart select panel.
The app names can be sometimes misleading as well or have dependencies you use.
I block about 80 packages. I'm still adjusting my list. I've had this N10+, still running on Pie for over 3 years and still find features I didn't know about or forgot about. Factory loaded Gookill apps are some of the worst offenders... it's not just Samsung.
