Hello! I recently updated to stock 5.1.1. I have root access and have set SELinux to permissive as well. Problem is I cannot delete system apps or convert them to user apps using ROM Toolbox or any other method. I can freeze them though. Any idea how can i do this???? e.g. Chrome at the moment is a system app I want to delete it...how can I do this on 5.1.1
Thank you in advance
Since 5.1 came out I've been reading a lot of threads & posts of users with semi-root problems. Because you don't have a proper o real root access you won't be able to do much. My advise is "simple": Build yourself a prerooted zip with all the latest software:
23.4.A.0.546 .ftf
PRF Creator v0.9
SuperSU 2.46
XZDR 2.8.21
I don't know if the SELinux thing is the same as modifying the XZDR.prop but I did. This 2 lines are "true": dr.initd.active=true and dr.keep.byeselinux=true
I don't have any root problems, even when installing 5.1.1 from 4.4.2. Other thing I do: After installing the pre-rooted .zip, I flash a "stripped" .ftf: I select all the 3 wipes, No final verification and Reset customizations BUT excluding system. The phone starts "like new" but with fully functional root and recoveries.
If you want to keep your semi-rooted phone but want to delete system apps, use a debloating script. It is like a flashable .zip but will not install anything, just delete whatever you want.
I managed to remove movie creator with the kinguser app that comes with kingroot.give it a try

I always keep on flashing new ROMs for my redmi note 3. Use it for a week and then flash a new one.
Its easy and fast proccess to flash and install a ROM. Though the setting up process is longer.
But. I have to install apps then. I have more than 70 apps (apks) to install. It really takes a long time to install them individually and then set up all this apps.
I really need a technique to install the apk's directly.
Without asking :; in the background.
I have tried with es root explorer one key install feature but that also doesn't work.
It shows install/uninstall failed.
Help.!? Is there any way to install mass no of apks at once. To save time and set them up later.
Pls
Any technique or way. Does anyone know how to do this??????
Hey
I think Titanium Backup is what you are looking for ?
Drop me a msg if you don't know how to use it.

Try Titanium Backup Pro.
I also flash ROMs frequently. The very first thing before flashing I do is to create backup of all my user apps. Then I Clean flash new ROM and I only download one app from play store i.e. Titanium backup. It can restore all the user as well as system apps (not recommended).
You can use it batch actions to restore all the user apps in One Go and If you will purchase the Pro feature It will restore all the applications silently in background. Without pro feature it will prompt you to install individual apk
xposed
There is an xposed module for that, but i forget the name. Maybe it was installeropt
use titanuim and create update.zip in titanium battch actions with all u r apps and flash that zips .....boom done
everybody who recommeds using titanium backup is correct. go grab the app.
you can try cm13, or use update zip option add all apk's in zip flash via twrp,
Hi everyone
I'm going to install lineage 14.1 on my phone and i wanna ask if it is necessary to install SuperSU before that or not.
If you want to install SuperSu you must install it after flashing the ROM.
And I suggest to use Magisk instead of SuperSu.
Rooting the phone is always useful (AdAway, Camera2API, Greenify, etc.), but it's possible to use it without root, too.
You can use DNS66 instead of AdAway, integrated battery saving options instead of Greenify, etc.
Thank u

In your stock ROMs you are pretty much stuck with the preloaded craps unless you root your device. Now you might not want to root your device for various reasons. For instance, almost all banking apps do not work on rooted devices. A way to tackle this is to use systemless root access provider like magisk. But unfortunately magisk requires Android 5.0+. So we need some other ways for our devices running Android 4.4.4 right? Well, fortunately there is a very simple method for debloating any stock ROM(I personally tested this method on Lenovo A6000 PLus but this should work on any ROM out there).
Note: You need a custom recovery for this to work, which can cause serious harm to your device if you do things incorrectly. You are also tweaking your device's system partition, so you might void your warranty. If anything happens to your device, its your responsibility.
Let's get started
Step 1: Download the "pico" gapps package from opengapps.org. For Lenovo A6000/Plus running stock kitkat, select arm,4.4,pico.
Step 2: Open twrp recovery.
Step 3: Install the pico gapps package that you just downloaded.
Step 4: Reboot your device. Now you will find that most of the google apps have a green icon with android logo(if you are using lenovo launcher). Just remove those apps.
Done
So, Which apps are removed?
Pretty much every apps are removed except Google Play Services, Play Store, Gboard and Play Newsstand. You can disable Newsstand and the security app(which does nothing but eat up space and resources) if you like.

Dude, 1st thing, you said this method needs a custom recovery which means you have to root the device at first or lest consider you just boot twrp using fastboot
And flashing gapps will remove the obselet gapps, and it won't remove the other oem bloatware present so actually this can't br called "Debloating"
Debloating doesn't mean removing gapps, debloating is the removal of useless or apps which can be downloaded from play store, included in the ROMs

Yes you have to use fastboot method but you don't need root access for that and as for the "bloatware" you are referring to, it's any unnecessary app that comes pre-installed with a device which you can't uninstall. Keeping aside the gapps there are only 2-3 apps that fall into that category, which you can just disable as I mentioned. In a device with 8gb or 16gb internal storage every bit of free storage counts. At least it's better than being stuck with all the apps in the first place.

Hello,
What would be the 2019 cleanest way to uninstall a system app?
My case: Flashed xiaomi EU (clean) ROM for a Redmi and it didn't come with youtube preinstalled. I ran to install it but now I noticed it cannot be uninstalled normally, only remove system updates (this one is funny because I assume removing system updates leaves a base version but not sure what a base version of youtube would be for a ROM that didn't have it in the first place, I guess youtube base version would be related to playstore version installed).
So I've seen uninstall procedures via ADB, titaniumbackup (don't own it yet) and other playstore apps. But not sure what would be the most recommended method nowadays, on a rooted phone (magisk) if that makes any difference.
Thanks for your time
