I uninstalled com.android.updater, and fow a while everything was OK. Then today the battery was depleted, and after recharging the phone went into a bootloop. I had to install com.android.updater again, and after that everything went back to normal.
How did I find out it was com.android.updater? When in a bootloop, the Android system is actually already up and running. I was able to do adb logcat. There I saw that the system was looking for com.android.updater.
Code:

04-18 17:07:20.036 7445 7606 E AndroidRuntime: java.lang.RuntimeException: System error: connot find system app : com.android.updater
Note that I'm using the original China Stable ROM version 10.4.4.0(PFKCNXM), all stock, locked bootloader, not rooted. Except for the customization that we can do without root: Install Google services etc, and disable/uninstall packages through ADB.
I didn't want to upgrade to MIUI 11 because I've seen reports of it being slow and draining battery, and I want the NFC functionality, so I had to stick with China ROM.
I can't find that in my Mi 9T Pro (using the latest xiaomi.eu 20.3.27)
When I search Update I find pl.zdunex25.updater, com.android.dynsystem and com.google.android.configupdater and have all 3 frozen with SDMaid.

Oh I'm using the China Stable ROM version 10.4.4.0(PFKCNXM), sorry for not mentioning it earlier. I think custom ROMs might be immune to this sort of thing. Thanks, I've updated the post with my ROM info.

Process of restoring generally depends on how did you 'uninstall' - please precisely describe how you did
I connect phone to computer with adb, click "debloater" and write com.android.updater in "custom" field, and click uninstall.

Still depending on how your debloater worked, try the folowing command(s):
adb shell cmd package install-existing com.android.updater
if it fails then:
adb shell pm enable com.android.updater
First make sure that adb connection is properly established:
adb devices
C:\adb_run\bin>adb devices
List of devices attached
NF8LHYVSNJZTGY7L recovery
C:\adb_run\bin>adb shell pm enable com.android.updater
adb server is out of date. killing...

Something wrong/strange with your adb deamon
Btw, you used certain Debloater - you should better ask in the corresponding Debloater forum/thread how to un-do

Would it be safe to disable in ADB, rather than uninstall?
Also, is it only responsible for OS updates, or does it handle things like updating the Google Play app?
hey guys..
is there any method for unrooted device..? disable commanda is not working.;

I would suggest not touching android.updater. it gives bootloop if disabled or uninstalled
What should we remove then
How does one debloat stock? I've been looking for a good ROM to use, but haven't found a single one satisfactory, so I'm still on whatever the phone came with. I can't help being highly uneasy with it though, with all the stuff it has that I don't use nor want.
I'm sorry if it's a real stupid question, I don't really have a whole lot of knowledge about this area.

XiaomiADBFastbootTools contains the feature of debloating. It can remove a **** ton of adware and bloatware.
Just make sure you don't remove something necessary -- if the name isn't obvious, a simple google search can tell you what the service/package does; then you can remove it.
You'll be surprised by the hidden bloatware your stock ROM has and how refreshing it feels once all that **** is removed (Looking at you, Facebook services!!! Even if Facebook is not installed, you still have facebook services on your device!)

I can help you with this, I have been collecting bloatware package names from across a vast variety of custom roms, as well as MIUI stock roms.
But remember, if you're on Android 11, don't uninstall Cell Broadcast Reciever, Android ONS, Cacert App, Ims Service, otherwise you'll get stuck in a bootloop
I have removed the packages that might result in a bootloop for you, so you're good to go, debloat whatever you want, and you can ask me about any package name that you're not familiar with.
Note: to add the list below, in Xiaomi ADB Fastboot Tools, click app manager then add apps and paste the package names you wanna uninstall/disable then hit ok. After doing so, the list of the apps/services will appear then you can choose what to disable/uninstall.
Note: if you want more ram and better performance with functionality, uninstall Gapps, excluding G-play services & play store if you use them, like those of the google safety hub app, device personlization services, google carrier services, and last but not least (disable) Android notification ranker service.
If you want more battery, uninstall Qualcomm Useshimservice com.qualcomm.useShimservice listed below.

Yep, that did it. But the "Use USB for" prompt keeps crashing and popping up every 10 seconds if I chose file transfer, so still something else. I have a feeling com.miui.notification has something to do with it
@unluckyfolk com.miui.notification is the notification ranker and settings for MIUI, I don't think that it has anything to do with it, can you attach a screenshot of the crashing prompt.

Tried clearing the cache of that service but no luck. Also reinstalling com.miui.notification did nothing. Gonna try reinstalling the next thing I find that looks related.
Have to point out though, that if I leave it on "No data transfer", it doesn't crash.
Edit: Just wanted to note that if I pick the third option, it also doesn't crash. I'm flabbergasted lol

That's really weird, never faced such a problem, but you can try to Go to Settings, Select Apps-ALL, Select Media Storage and Clear Data, Go back to ALL and select Google Services Framework, Clear Data.
If that doesn't help, you can simply use adb push files /sdcard/ & adb pull files /sdcard/ commands in cmd to transfer files from your laptop/PC to your phone or vice versa.

That also didn't do it. But to be honest, I don't care enough to spend more time on this. If I select the third option, the XiaomiADBFast java app still works, and I can use other methods to transfer data, so that's alright. For now nothing else broke, so I'm still slowly removing stuff.

I've made this bloatware disable script for my new realme GT (Global) you might find it useful.
It disables stuff you can't usually disable / remove on the phone itself.
The uninstallable stuff I removed manually before creating this script. Some more "extreme" options are commented out.
first setup ADB:
On your phone:
Settings -> About Phone -> Version -> press "Build Number" 7 times to enable Developer Options --> Go back to the root of settings --> Additional Settings --> Developer options and enable USB Debugging --> reconnect your phone --> select Data Transfer / Android Auto
On your PC:
Windows device driver: https://developer.android.com/studio/run/oem-usb.html
adb/fastboot: https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools#downloads
on windows cd to the extracted platform-tools directory and change each command to .\adb ... or copy its contents to C:\tools and add that to your PATH

I've tried that too.
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.coloros.weather2
makes no problem at all, it is the "weather.service" matters.
I let the adb shell open and data line connected, then
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.coloros.weather.service
Nothing happens at this point, but after I clicked Dark Mode the screen flickers.
I turned off screen and on again, still the same, flickers and no response.
So I immediately put the App back by
cmd package install-existing com.coloros.weather.service
The screen returns to normal again, and I can unlock.

First and foremost, thank you for the prompt reply.
Having installed another Weather App, I uninstalled "weather.service" and "weather2" then changed the device from Light to Dark Mode (Device still connected to PC) and unfortunately, I'm glad to report, there were no flickering issues.
I'm assumming the weather.service is causing UI issues which another weather app in place had adressed.
My intension is to replace the Coloros Weather App with my own option therefore uninstalling just the "weather2" will be fine.
I threw caution to the wind and re-installed the coloros.weather.service just in case if the current weather app is accidentally uninstalled.
Thank you for your help.

com.qualcomm.qti.callfeaturessetting
com.qualcomm.qti.remoteSimlockAuth
com.xiaomi.finddevice
with the command
Code:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 <package name>
After this, my phone restarted into Redmi-Recovery 3.0, with no direct way to get out.
Trying to reinstall doesn't work because in this moment, even if adb is able to connect, I cant do anything about the packages in the shell anymore.
From what I've now read, it seems like Xiaomis "Find Device" service is essential, so I'm guessing i need to "revert" it, but how?
I started following this tutorial on youtube on "how to unbrick your xiaomi phone" (which assumes that I need to reflash my ROM via fastboot), but by now I've gotten stuck at every single sub-step of doing this with MiFlash that I'm about to give up.
So that MiFlash is able to flash, the bootloader needs to be unlocked. I tried to do that with Mi Unlock (both 4.5 and 6.5) but that app is even less comprehensible and functional. sometimes pages load blank, sometimes dialogues are suddenly in chinese, but worst of all is that even though I have a verified Xiaomi account (via email), when I try to sign in with it in Mi Unlock, it asks me to provide a phone number, and when I do, it says that "+417*******3" is not a valid phone format, what the hell?
I've been stuck on this the whole day, I think I'm missing an obvious workaround to reinstall that package, or some kind of different solution? What am I doing wrongly?
Thanks for any help.
The command
Code:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 <package name>
doesn't remove an app, but only deletes its APK.
You reinstall the now missing APK via command
Code:
adb shell "cmd package install-existing <package name>"
Thanks for your quick reply. I've already tried this, as I've said:
even if adb is able to connect, I cant do anything about the packages in the shell anymore
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The exact output is:
Code:
pm install-existing com.xiaomi.finddevice
cmd: Can't find service: package
Can't read properly? May be you've to buy new glasses ...
Although my friend from just over the border could've phrased it more nicely, this was essentially my issue. I somehow omitted "cmd" from the install-existing command the last time.... 5 hours wasted for nothing
