I'm aware that there is currently no Root or TWRP out yet for the US Snapdragon models but is there any way to remove all the crap bloatware that Samsung fills their phones with? I find it extremely annoying that you cant remove any of this stuff. I'm planning on getting an S9+ tomorrow but i'm still on the fence of it due tot he fact that i cant root it nor remove the bloatware. I really like being able to customize everything to my liking as I did with my S4, S6, and S7.

Bloat is VERY easy to remove on this device using a proper package disabler.
I use package Disabler Pro and the PDP plugin app for permissions and I can disable EVERYTHING with it. It costs 2.50 but is well worth it!

This phone is even more customizable than the S8 / Note 8 series. I love Samsung phones but not the software. However, this version of the Samsung Experience is really good! Lots of tweaks just in the settings apps.
There are a lot of apps that would require root but have similar non root apps. Check out the apps section and see what other people have to say as far as customization. For me, its a great mix of customization, features, and performance.

My understanding from a response a techie gave on the subject is that there really isn't anything gained by deleting them. The O/S has reserved the space on your phone that they are using. Even is you free'd up a bunch of space in that "reserve" by deleting them, that space cannot be used by anything else. The important bit is to prevent them from running and taking up RAM.
You can use ADB shell to remove them. I took off a bunch.. Bixby gone. Samsung Voice thingie gone. Samsung Keybord thingie gone, etc.There's a post here https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...-bloatware-youd-recommend-to-rid-off-t3759500
Besides the stuff in that thread, I used Application Inspector from the Google Play store which will show you the name of something you can uninstall.. for example "com.sec.android.application.name" or something like that.

Has anyone done any de-bloating? My wife's S5 needs it bad, and I'm not sure what I can safely remove without effecting the system stability.

I dont really mean to do a shameless plug or anything but if you want a tool you can check out my Project Infinity rom. With todays update I will have an Aroma installer with a near complete user selection apps installer. Eventually I hope to have every single app that is removal as an option to give the most slimmest install possible.

Before I rooted, I simply went into the Application Manager (in settings), switched to the ALL tab, and started going down the list. Particularly paid attention to items that showed up on the RUNNING tab to see what needed freezing the most. If you do it this way, you should not be able to accidentally freeze (or "Turn Off" in the app mgr) any programs that are critical to the operation of the phone.
If you want to "debloat" it further, I do recommend Titanium Backup. It is exceptionally good at freezing apps and otherwise managing backups of apps (and backing up user data from system apps, and converting from system -> user, and many other tasks...). I've been using it since my Samsung Infuse 4G. It will require root, and can do more damage because of this if you are not careful.
As others have recommended, go look at debloat lists for the Galaxy S4. The software lists are nearly identical. Just read through what each app does, and determine for yourself what is needed, and what isn't.
Lastly, if you are rooted, and you are going to debloat using a root application (like TiBu), don't forget to make a full nandroid backup using your custom recovery.... just in case.
My job gives me a Samsing S4 from Verizon that is filled with bloat. I have to manually go in and disable everything which takes about 4 hours or so. I am looking for an app that can do it for me but it needs to be a well known app not something that somebody just posts an apk. Any auggestions?
We are not allowed to root the phones. It would be great if I could put a googe play edition or developer edition rom on it or something but I don't think that's possible.

You will have to root your phone for all this. You can only flash stock rom on the device without rooting it.
What bloat wares are we talking about specifically? Do you mean all the S-voice/S-Note/Air gestures??
They can be activated and deactivated from the pull down menu. Other things need to be disabled manually!There is no work around this without root. You can try the widgets on the screen that allow you to disable wi-fi and bluetooth but its nothing new than what samsung offers from the pulldown menu

You can't remove system apps without root. Clean Master has a function to remove bloat if you're rooted. I don't know if this is changed to disabling if you're not rooted, because my devices are rooted. I seem to remember a previous version of Clean Master had something like that. It merely took you to the app info scree, one at a time, but at least it did it sequentially instead of you having to hunt for each one on your own. Maybe that still exists.
Since Android 4.1, many bloatware type apps can just be disabled via the the built-in Application Manager in your Settings app. Disabling it will hide it from the launcher and make it so it does not run, essentially doing the same thing as uninstalling it. It is better this way because some phones will not properly update if something is modified or removed from the /system partition. Also worth noting in regards to this as it is a popular misconception, removing these unwanted apps will not provide you with more usable storage as they are contained in /system/app and the apps you install via the Play Store or 3rd party sources will only install to /data/app unless rooted and moved.
That being said, TowelRoot is a newer rooting method for many newer phones running 4.4+(especially Galaxies like the S4 and Note 3). This root method is done via an app on the phone and only takes seconds and does not trip Knox. You could root, freeze what you needed and then unroot without anyone the wiser, though, of course, this is done at your own risk - like any other mod.

Yes you can disable them but it takes about 4 hours to do it each time. There's a lot of them. About 95% of stuff needs to be disabled.
Towelroot looks great unfortunately I am not able to root the phone. They don't use knox. I can do anything but root the phone really. I really just want vanilla android I'm a bit sick of touchwiz. I'd love to just flash to the developer edition or something.

The S4s bootloader is locked so basically not a lot to choose from. And as others have mentioned you need root to gain access to remove bloatware. Sadly samsung phones on VZW are filled with it as well as many other phones, it's not limited to just samsung.
And navigator may be better than Google maps but maps is free and having been a former user of both NFL mobile (when it was free) and navigator I'm happy I got rid of both of them

I agree, I went back to not rooted and pray for OTA updates, even it's naive
If i ever going to root, one of the main factor would be for GMD gestures. Couple of finger swipes to close apps, lock screen, switch apps adds tremendous amount of button freedom and control.
I'm going to rooting to get complete control of memory (internal and SD) and app authorizations...

Not with ADB. You'll need an app like titanium backup or adaway for ad blocking. But both need root. But you're correct, getting netflix to work is a little bit of a pita.

Hey guys,
I recently purchased a Galaxy S9+ SM-G965U1 From Ebay not realizing it couldn't be rooted. Rooting is probably the most important factor to me on a phone.
I noticed that there is no way to do it or unlock the bootloader.
Is anyone working on this for us? Or am I screwed? I'd rather not send back the phone as I already put Dome Glass on it, and got it activated with Metro.
Give it to me straight, will I ever see Root on this device?
I think not,If The Device you have is snapdragon variant
No hope on root, if it is snapdragon. But if it is exynos, then u can root.
No root needed. Enjoy your phone as is.

I agree with you root really is overrated nowadays, except for one thing...
Making nandroid backups or similar is definitely one of the biggest advantages to having root.
Cloud based backups don't retain any of your apps data and if that particular app doesn't backup your account then you're screwed starting over from scratch.
I sure do miss making titanium backups...
To the OP... No root for SM-G965U or SM-G965U1 variants, and I wouldn't hold my breath on it being rooted either.

I enjoy the ability to tweak the performance and experience on my phone as well (not to mention the nandroid backups), but regrettably if and when it may come for get this phone is unknown. Samsung built this phone with security in mind so we may be in for a long wait for any root method (if one ever eventually materializes).

If you can not uninstall the app then maybe an ADB method exists. To be honest with system apps I would suggest you just disable them instead of removing them. Adhell3 allows for disabling of apps, and I have used it to disable several system apps. There is ample enough space on the phone (and with the use of external storage) that I personally have no cause for removing them at all. Besides the chance exists you might break something if you inadvertently remove the wrong system app.

Tasker beta also has the ability to do this. Currently using Google Assistant as the single press, but if I need to use bixby I just hold the button in.
Later Samsung bixby updates also allow changes to the button, but the only caveat with this is you can't set it to competing voice assistants.
As others said unfortunately no root, but also as others said root is now overrated.
The only 2 things i can't do is custom ROM and nandroid backup. I getting away from google so i use different apps and email etc.
But since no root
I use Brave browser it has built in ad blocking, blokada a vpn ad blocker, package disabler pro to disable bixby, facebook and the update services, and bXAction to remap the bixby button.
Good luck

Hey guys,

Anyway, it's time for a come back. I've been reading a lot about samsung phones and the current state of bloat, so, have any of you already debloated something?
My goal is to keep it very simple, not doing any hardcore debloats! I just want the usual suspects gone... like facebook, youtube and whatever thirdparty apps.
I found a list of apps safe to debloat from the S20 series, i wonder if its the same for S21.

BTW, i was reading about the samsung KNOX, we still can't root the phone without breaking it forever, right?
You can likely use the s20 lists. Hope s21 havent much more bloatware... You cann first try to disable (most of them you can only siable via adb) them and look if everything is okay (reboot after disabling) and then uninstall if everything is fine(if not you can reenable them if disabled, if you deleted them you must wipe your phone) i do this everytime and then make a notepad list with uninstall adb commands and im good

I would like to remove all Samsung bloatware including their Phone and Messaging apps... Does anyone have a complete "Safe" list of package names that can be deleted from the S21? The link to KrispiTech was nice, but it did not list any of the phone or message package names. wanting to strictly use Google apps for these
