WA+ & GBWA being detected as Android/Agent.AP - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I was thinking of installing WA+ or GBWA because of the cool features that they have, what's the difference between them btw?, in my s7 but I get a notification that they are not safe to install because of this-
https://home.mcafee.com/VirusInfo/VirusProfile.aspx?key=9609498
Now I know that a virus cannot technically harm a phone's OS. But I am worried about WA+ or GBWA sending stuff to remote servers/numbers in the background as mentioned in the link. Is there any way/app to stop these kinda apps sending info in the background to the servers/numbers and work as intended for non rooted phones?
Thanks

Any help?

Bump.

Best Way to Remove Pre-installed Apps?

Hey Guys.
So as I have said in title, what is the best way to remove some of the apps that were included with the phone? Specifically I wish remove CoPilot trial, the outdated Facebook app and the outdated Windows Live apps.
I searched the boards but I didn't really find what I was looking for. Thanks guys.
The only way now is to flash a custom ROM. Someone may come up with a differentsolution some day, but not yet.

KLWP app-like for rooted phones?

Hi all, so I'm running a rooted nexus 5 with CM13 rom. I saw some videos on kustom live wallpaper app and how it completely changes phone interface and I was wondering if there was sth similar to it for rooted phones, and hopefully legally free? I want to be able to create buttons/widgets with it's own custom animation/functionalities options. I searched a bit here but no luck. Thx all in advance.

Why don't you just use KWLP?
I was just wondering, since I'm already rooted, if there was a free alternative to it. If not, I guess I'll buy it, purchasing is a little difficult here.
Kwlp doesn't seem to be working on my rooted phone I have arrows ROM installed does anyone know if that will be the problem or do I have to hide kwlp in magisk or anything

Best way to get rid of bloatware

Hi everyone,
I have recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 to draw, watch movies, edit notes,...
I'd like to get rid of some bloatware (I don't use Chrome or most of the pre-installed apps) but some looks useful (air command or anything to do with the S Pen).
What would you suggest me to do, to keep some of the useful pre-installed app and get rid of the rest?

Package Disabler Pro
Then it changed, and needed a plug in..
now I read that Package Disabler Pro+ doesn't require a plug in.
The professional version ( More expensive version ) I REMEMBER just turned off time on your display etc.
I used it on my S2, I don't have a S3, I don't have a Samsung anymore. No idea if it works for S3. Careful on using it. No root required. I could turn off about 100 things! and once I turned off the Samsung touch wiz? or something to do with the Launcher.. I had to re-install the OS again

Hi Mr Nice Guy!
I have read about Disabler Pro while searching on the forums. I guess I will give it a try. Thank you for the help

Change the rom region?

Hello everyone,
I took advantage of a trip to Shenzhen to buy a Double Sim Mate 20 Pro 128GB LYA-AL00.
Is there a way to put an European rom on it? I have a lot of bloatware, useless Chinese applications and I only get notifications from WeChat, it's annoying ... lol.
If a solution exists, it will be great!
Maybe I'm wrong but I thought I read on Funky Huawei's Twitter feed that they were able to install the global ROM on a Chinese M20P but it did not rebrand the phone to a different region.
Since bootloader unlock codes seem to be available again there might be some ROM development.
Unfortunately Funkyhuawei does not respond to my tweets or emails. So, I do not know if something is possible or not. Currently the Chinese Rom is full of bloatware, I have big problems of notifications and the applications of background. If anyone has any advice to give me or a procedure to follow, I want to try because despite this smartphone is great, this ROM is very difficult for me.

In the notifications section from the settings have you enabled notifications for your apps ?

Dual Apps

Hi guys,
Obviously Android one doesn't support dual apps for instant messaging apps such as WhatsApp (which is kinda weird because since it has two Sim cards...). Do you guys know the best way to make this happen since it is kinda mandatory for me to have that feature.
Thanks in advance
I'd start with Island app, from the author of Greenify. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oasisfeng.island
