Is there anyway to remove any bloatware on the u.s. version Samsung Galaxy s9 plus model without root? Thanks In advance!!!
use package disable pro or Adhell 3 to disable unwanted apps.
Flashing the U1 firmware also could also help get rid of bloatware (carrier and/or otherwise).

Yes,
I have used this, great to disable and/or renable samsung apps.

I like to use adb to get rid of bloat and some system apps. I'm using it while I still can? . I'm guessing it will be going away sometime soon, just like fastboot.
When that happens I most likely will be looking into the latest IOS jailbreak, which I recently learned is not so bad and is more than installing an app as I used to say, lol

I am running android 4.0.3 on a Samsung galaxy s2 from vodafone and will like to have a light firmware. What processes or apps can I remove without affecting the way the phone functions (i.e. google partner setup). Is it possible to create a program to remove all unwanted processes without flashing a new ROM.
I'll also like to increase the connectivity speed to HSPA+.
Addition of new information.
I came across this article on XDA's main page and thought I share it. It is self explanatory and I think it should work on any version. Please any question should be directed to the forum OP. Enjoy

My favorite app is called titanium backup, it lets you remove everything you want and if you make a mistake you can restore what you deleted. The freeze option on the paid version is really good.
Titanium Backup is easily the most useful app for any rooted phone. The paid version is not much better than the free version, other than giving the developer some support and appreciation. It lets you freeze apps so they no longer appear in your app drawer, and even uninstall bloatware that you specifically select. It's a must have and it will definitely save you more than once! Hope this helps

Hello
I find my Z2 pretty much as Samsung S3 heavy bloated with apps i do not want. Some of them cant be uninstalled.
For my S3 there was a custom stock rom with the ability to check what apps i wanted and not.
Or is there any application that can clean my phone from sony,s bloatware?
I find this annoying every time i buy a new phone. Same with computers. Therefore i build my own computers.
Root the phone (use this) and then uninstall the unwanted system apps.

Which customization country version do you have?
There are a few stock country ftf which have least bloatware, such as UK and Canada (I'm using Canada) for instance.
As the title says I can't disable that service I'm using Package Disabler Pro to deactivated every bloatware in my V30 H-931 but every time I try to disable my phone restarts is there a way to disable without having to root my phone?

Using Package Disabler Pro on V30 will probably cause lag in your system. You must be coming from an older phone and you don't yet know how newer LG firmware works? You will end up removing stuff the system looks for, which causes lag.
LG has a lot of firmware intertwined. You yank something out, it's not in an isolated silo like the old days. It's like a spiderweb.
Using Titanium Backup to freeze "unwanted" apps/services is better. If you see lag, then you can UNfreeze. Yes, that requires root.
If you mess things up too badly with Package Disabler, then you'll be factory resetting to bring everything back. Lots of people have had to do that. We've had this phone since 2017, so we know how it all works.
I don't need 59 versions of the new Candy Crush, but AT&T strongly feels otherwise. I keep uninstalling these things, and one after another they just keep popping right back up like weeds. I have a package disabler app but I'm not sure what app it is that keeps reinstalling these apps. Can anybody help me here? Thank you.
I have a Galaxy S10 5G. I'd more than gladly flash the unlocked firmware, but there is no unlocked firmware. The Verizon firmware blocks things that I need most (like Samsung Cloud).

What's brand/model & Android version of your Android device?
BTW: Unless device's Android isn't got rooted most bloatware can only be disabled ( in reality: get hidden to default user ) but not completely erased.
What is the safest way to de-bloat the phone? What apps are people using to remove unneeded apps? For example I don't use Google TV. Is it safe to uninstall or just freeze? There is Systemless Debloater but I'm not sure if it's fully comparable.

I use Systemless Debloater.
In the begining I tested it on as many devices I could.
- Few Pixel(s), OnePlus(s), Motorola and Xiaomi devices.
- I know someone who is currently using it on a Samsung S20+ (now on Android 13).
The module was just recently updated to handle a new OnePlus (ColorOS ?) directory.
/system/my_bigball
Since it is systemless, it is safe and fairly easy to use.
The hardest part is finding the app name you want to debloate.
Cheers.
Edit:
PS.
I might be a little bias though.

I use SD Maid Pro and freeze apps, because a) it isn't possible to delete apps from the system partition, and b) it's safer than trying to remove the apps permanently.
+1 for the freeze option. Less likely to cause any issues and if it does, it's easy to unfreeze. Fwiw, 3C Toolbox also offers the freeze/unfreeze function as should most decent app managers. I'll let most factory included apps remain until they show up on my wake-lock more often than I think they should or is necessary. It's all about battery 4 me...the more my phone stays in light doze/doze or deep sleep WITHOUT causing any late or missing notifications the better. I try to stay in that 'sweet spot' as far as the battery goes.
even frozen apps still run. i have google play services and framework frozen and they still hammer my firewall.
makes you feel better about it though..
