I have installed the firmware 9.1 twice per dload, I have done 4 complete formats, install once the firmware by erecovery and two more formats later, everything from scratch, and even then I am having random reboots, suddenly the mobile freezes and I come back to request the unlock code, someone to know what is the problem?
That's what you get when you can't wait...
I guess you Wipe it completely.
Did you turn off developer options you enabled, USB debugging and stuff like these?
Dont restore all apps in playstore. Emui 9.1 is the android 10 update? If this is the case not all apps are compatible or up to date jet.
With version did you dload? You need the right fileS with your region, cust the number in "(....)". Don't use apps that tweak multitasking or things like that. Phone should be perfectly optimized from the day you got it.
I get crashes from time to time but no random reboots or hangups. Start from scratch readd your contacts and then restore the apps you need and look if they are up to date android 9/10 rdy.
Add a logcat so we could iron out what's causing you the problems.
Have a nice day hope I could help you in someway.
Emui 9.1 is Android 9, like emui 9.0, the installation I made it from 0, nothing of restored apps, it was installation by erecovery, that is the version that the same Huawei servers send for my device, the problem is real, that in other forums of the series Mate are also reporting
I have the same problem with that version and I got via Ota.
I restored it using the factory reset and it's the same thing
I regret updating my phone.
Mine is fast fluid and battery life lasts a long time , I installed from hicare , formatted my phone afterwards because of the file system change and set my phone up as new again

I suspect that the problem lies if certain apps are disabled, apparently it's because I disable notepad, but I'm not sure yet
Mine doesn't reboot on its own but my apps crash randomly. Man this 9.1 update is a mess!

Absolutely. My phone is an unlocked device and after 3 without getting any update last week I got it via Ota. But now I really regret getting it. I hate this situation it really sucks
Yes i have the same problem... Made a factory reset but reboots are there....
Has anyone found any solution?

Try disabling the application NOTEPAD.
The crashes and reboots have stopped. It has been stable at least 8 hours since I disabled it.
I think if it worked for me it should work for anyone
Try it

it happens to me when it's disabled
I just did the following process:
-Low level format
-Format by erecovery
-Format cache by erecovery
-Download and restoration of firmware by erecovery
-Format by erecovery
-install only elementary apps, do not disable anything, do not restore any app
After all the previous process, after a few minutes I was crashed again and asked for the password

I don't have any issues that all you guys are writing about
9.1 has been great for me , in all the features, optimization, battery, etc
Maybe because I did remove like 10+ apps that were bloatware for me ?? : https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20-pro/how-to/guide-remove-huawei-bloatware-noob-t3889426

I have disabled and enabled the notepad and continue the reboots, apparently that is not the problem either
I found the solution, update to firmware 9.1.0.306, using hstool, I did it and the restarts disappeared
Enviado desde mi LYA-L09 mediante Tapatalk
I don't facing any problem or what ever.
After update to 9.1, format userdata and relock the BL, boot normally, setting up the phone and unlock the BL again, rooting and removing the bloatware.
Battery is good , performance very fast and nothing problem.

I know there are threads on using ADB to hide/disable unwanted programs or app, but if i'm correct I uninstalled apps rather than hiding them using this command: pm uninstall -k --user 0. followed by whatever app it was. In the apps list in the system menu it shows several apps as uninstalled. Looking at my apps list, I replaced LG contacts with google contacts.....in the list it shows LG contacts as not installed, same with Facebook installer/manager/LG Keyboard/LG mobile switch. All of these apps, I used the above command to get rid of them or replace them. To set this up I went and downloaded team androids windows platform tools and googles usb drivers. I then enabled debugging, authorized my computer, opened up power shell with admin rights and proceeded to remove apps. Oh, I also used package name viewer from the play store to get the name of the app. So is it possible I DID uninstall these apps rather than hiding them?
They will show back up with a factory reset. So technically no.

A factory reset resets the phone to its factory default state... So technically these apps are uninstalled.

Uninstalled for the specific user.. Basically disabled. If truly uninstalled a factory reset would not bring them back. They are still taking up space in /system/apps, /system/priv-app

And as someone mentioned in another thread (maybe you?), it's only affecting the apps in the system partition, not the user partition.
So, without root removing these apps via ADB isn't really saving any space that can be re-used.

If you had a model where apps are added after the setup, like the H933, where carrier bloat is pushed as soon as you sign in to the Play Store on the device. With the T-Mobile variant though, the carrier bloat is contained within the system image. You can remove the apps from being installed but they will reinstall with the next update. You will need something to tell you the app names to remove them with ADB. If you have the drivers installed and the correct files. All you have to do is open command prompt in the folder where the ADB files are stored, type "adb shell" and use the "pm uninstall -k --user 0 (app file name)" to remove it from being currently installed. The following two commands I used to remove the Facebook garbage and some other bloat from both of my devices.
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.system
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.appmanager

What Jctatis says, alternatively you can delete the apps by ADB.
In additional settings open developer options and turn on USB debugging.
Then on your computer type adb devices to see if your computer can connect and adb shell to type commands in your device. Then type the commands Jctatis listed.
Will this affect the software updates later? Just like rooting can cause a phone to stop receiving OTA updates.

Nah.
I'd keep the stock video player if you want to play HDR videos. It's the only app that I found that can play them properly, it can even play UHD bluray rips. VLC doesn't work as well. It's not a bad app.
Also removing yellowpages disables access to your contacts from the phone app. You probably want that. If not you probably want to replace the phone app as well. You can use google phone, it can be found on xda as apk, not play store.
IMO, just remove the obvious apps and don't touch services and other less obvious things that might be tied to something system related. All of it is reversible so just experiment.

I can access contacts from the phone app anyway. Thank you about the video player tip, didnt know that!

I debloated quite a few apps without any problems.
The only thing that's missing the "Skip Swipe Screen" option and the ability to change lockscreen wallpaper.
Do you guys know which system app needed for these two operations?
Thanks in advance!

you can change your lockscreen with the Themes app. Otherwise I believe you need the Mi Wallpaper not uninstalled.

Does anyone know which APK is the messaging app and if it's safe to remove? I can see extra SMS but it's not it. Also if you check the app's info it says "com.android.mms" but I don't see it in the list. Judging by the name it doesn't seem to be a MiUI file though.

I have completly uninstalled the com.android.mms a couple of days ago, and using the google messages app instead. No issues at all.

And to answer your question com.android.mms IS the messaging app/sms app, and yes it seems to be safe to remove/replace.

Maybe you just missed it, there are like 200+ packages on a phone like this...

What if, I have accidentally debloated the stock video player, is there anyway we can re-install it?
Hy all,
As many users asked me what bloatware i removed from my phone and at @Andrei Morar special request , I decided to create a thread with all the packages and their relative details about how each package listed here works on EMUI system for helping all of you who want to safely slim down the number of not used apps which are running in background alongside with some services preinstalled on phone that are not usable, for me and maybe for some others. I leave it to you to take the final choice about what to do with a package, remove it or not, and if you have other packages that you think it’s worthy to keep or remove, please comment bellow and i’ll add or remove that package.
Remember that those applications truly aren’t being fully uninstalled from the device, they are just being uninstalled for the current user (user 0 is the default / main user of the phone). That’s why, if you omit the “–user 0” and “-k” part of the uninstall command, the command won’t work. These two flags respectively specify that the system app will only be uninstalled for the current user (and not all users, which is something that requires root access) and that the cache / data of the system application will be preserved (which can’t be removed without root access). Therefore, even if you “uninstall” a system application using this method, you can still receive official OTA updates from your carrier or OEM.
If something does go wrong, you can always perform a factory reset to bring things back to the way they were. However, there’s an even easier way to bring back an app you uninstalled as this : open cmd-here.exe from C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot and enter the following commands: adb shell cmd package install-existing <name of package you wish to reinstall>.
IF you want to remove ads and you have no root or don't wan't to block your VPN or use Blokada, you can use my trick, it works on both WI-FI and mobile networks, as good as Adaway is doing :
Just set: Settings > Wi-Fi & Internet > Private DNS > dns.adguard.com and you are good without any additional app.
Here is the quick & easy guide for all:
1. Download latest Minimal ADB and Fastboot from here - thanks go to @shimp208 for providing this great tool - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
2. Enable USB debugging from developer options:
- Step 1: go to Settings
- Step 2: find and open "System" option
- Step 3: select "About phone"
- Step 4: tap "Build number" at least seven times and you will see a prompt with “You are now a Developer “. Then go to developer options and enable USB debugging (it's a MUST DO)
3. Connect your phone to your computer and press YES if it asks you to trust the PC
4. Launch cmd-here.exe from C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot and enter the following commands followed by Enter:
- adb devices (make sure your device appears in the list)
- adb shell
- pm uninstall -k --user 0 + the app you want to remove from the list below
- for restarting the device after succesfully removed unwanted package, type reboot and hit Enter, then your device will restart and remove the package from user.
For example:
This command will delete Huawei Mobile Services (including Huawei ID) app:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.hwid

Thank you so much for this little piece of gold of a guide!
I will do this after receiving the stable build of Emui 10. Hopefully this happens in 2019
One quick question: after removing any of the preinstalled apps do they automatically get reinstalled after the first security update? What about major updates like Emui 11?

How much of an impact on your phone's battery life and performance does removing all the apps in your removal list has? I'm interested to know that if I remove all the preinstalled apps I will get a noticeable improvement in battery life.

I don't know for sure, because i've done this removal every single phone i had right of the box, just after set up . But you will have for sure better battery life because some of those apps can't be set on battery settings (ex. Chrome can't be stopped been used on background and some other apps) to stop using battery in backgroung or start once you restart your device. BUT be aware what you remove, make sure to check if you use any of them before removal.
For YouTube i recommend Youtube vanced (no ads and black interface) and for Messenger and Facebook (both without ads or any other unusefull stuffs) i recommend those apps from here

No, they are separatley signed apk's and in my case (i'm sure yours and others) don't receive PlayStore notifications to update or any other. PlayStore confirms they are installed and give you option to Uninstall just like in my bellow SS. They don't appear on your installed app list from PlayStore

Yes, i'm on EMUI 10, BUT i have Huawei launcher installed and using. So it seems that uninstalling Huawei launcher also disable recent apps on Huawei. I will post this info in OP. Try reinstalling it through ADB, on EMUI 9.1 worked reinstalling some apps or search it on Huawei apps app if you didn't removed it using ADB.

Yeah, just did a factory reset.
Can I ask why you use uninstall instead of pm disable?
Is the uninstall more effective?

uninstall also frees up the space used by apps and also it makes sure it won't get auto re-enabled by system. And one more thing, If i just disable them i observed that they are still consuming RAM (according to Developer Options >> Memory).
The update from MIUI 11.0.9 to 11.0.10 has changed some pre-installed apps. I have uninstalled more apps now including their unnecessary settings.
Please pay attention: This time I have not uninstalled com.miui.gallery, as somebody warned me that it leads to a bootloop. But I havent experienced it in 11.0.9. In this version 11.0.10 I am more cautious and I let the gallery app untouched. Nevermind, I dont neet the MI Gallery, because I prefer the open source Simple Mobile Tools from Fdroid or PlayStore: www.simplemobiletools.com I recommend the open source Lawnchair2 from PlayStore as alternative launcher. There you can hide MI Gallery app.
My device has no root, no custom ROM, just the original MIUI global. The Xiaomi App-Updater works. So I suppose OTA to MIUI12 will work too!
The debloating leaves you with a very clean phone at least you have only a handful apps installed on your MIUI homescreen. A good start!
My "old" list for MIUI 11.0.9. is here.
I also recommend: Xiaomi ADB/Fastboot Tools by Szaki, a simple tool for managing Xiaomi devices on desktop using ADB and Fastboot. There you find many of the debloated apps, that I have noted in my debloating list, although my list digs deeper in some areas.
If you are interest in the meaning of an app, simply search for it in a search engine of your choice e.g. startpage, duckduckgo, qwant etc.

Thanks for this. I am planning to buy Indian version (RN9promax). It'd be great if you can give a brief description of what features each uninstalled/disabled app removes from phone. Most are self explanatory but some need a bit explaining. Thanks.
Hi there gerega,
Care to answer a few queries:
1. Things to be taken care of before preforming these, IF any?
2. Apps disabled why, uninstalling creates issues?
3. What improvements noticed, besides bloat gone away?
4. In simple words which apps were removed and where did you later install them from......Play store, F Driod etc?
5. is a reboot required after uninstalling and disabling, each time?
6. Pros over unlocking bootloader, TWRP, Root and a MIUI 11/12 stable ROM?
Thanks again.
Regards!!

Please look for yourself. Simply copy the app file name in a search engine and then you get the answers. Took me a long time to find and I havent copied the info separately.

Of course!
1. Nothing, you must know how to setup adb of course or run a jar-file, if you use the solution by Szaki.
2. Apps disabled, because I dont know, if I might probably need them anytime later.
3. Nothing more positive that I am aware of. Of course I hope that there is less personal data sent to Xiaomi.
4. The apps I remove completely (uninstall), are the ones I dont need them at all. So there is no need to reinstall anything for me. PLaystore, apkmirror should be fine though.
5. It is okay to reboot at the whole end.
6. No pros I think, but my aunt needs a new phone and I need a working phone that I wont be able to administrate, so it needs to be running stable.
WARNING:
i found a minor issue with my debloat list. The Mi Gallery stops working. Seems as if a dependent app is missing. Will check it tomorrow.

Thanks for taking out the time to reply.
A few more questions from an old man!
1. Do the Android/Google apps and MIUI services/apps be installed in 1 go, or one could uninstall them in a staggered way...the reason for asking is to see the stability and not for errors to appear. Than one would not know which was/ is the culprit?
2. How do you figure out like in case of Mi Galler that's stop working to see for the dependent app missing?
3. I have a SD card installed, and am signed into Xiaomi Cloud ......do I need to take care of anything?
4. Are google apps and ad apps like FB, Linkedin etc linked to Xiaomi sending data?
5. Are the uninstalled apps a clean uninstall or leave remnants behind?
6. Since you are so smart, why don't you create a deblaoted MIUI ROM, I would gladly purchase/donate? Never used a Xiaomi before, am used to Oneplus.
7. How long does it take to debloat from your list.......can it be done using Team Viewer?
8. I dont play games on the phone, just for normal calls, texting, browsing and social network apps like Whatsapp, FB, Messanger, Instagram, Linkedin, Snapchat, Twitter, Skype, VLC, Chrooma KB, Accu batt Pro, CPUZ Pro, Greenify Donation and Whicons, use Brave browser, and google apps installed are Chrome, Photos, Drive, Maps. I use Nova Prime or Lawnchair as recommended by you, no weather but Yr.no, none compass, screen recorder, etc provided by stock Xiaomi.
9. RAM usage never exceeds more 3.8 of 6 gigs. Internal storage free is approx 101 GB of 128.
10. Want a clean, stable trouble free ROM, as Lineage OS for Oneplus.
Thanks again.
Best regards!
1. Windows unable to install drivers for RN9Pro......any links?
2. Szaki tools downloaded, but won't detect the phone or get connected, realized Brave has no Java installed....is that correct?

Your questions:
1. in one go! Just copy paste. If it gives you an error, read it. Most common errors: the package is not installed etc. Nothing to worry about!
2. A bit of logic thinking and then trial & error. I have found the package that caused the error and have just removed it from the debloating list! (com.xiaomi.micloud.sdk must not be removed from the device!)
3. Depends on what you want.
4. Of course. Since Snowden leaks we know that everything that can be will be collected and sent home. I want to minimize and I am very privacy orientated.
5. Please read the manpage of pm. The -k option keeps all config files. I dont need them so I deleted those files too.
6. No interest in it.
7. Once you got adb working: about 2 minutes, just copy & paste Once you start debloating you will literally see it on the "desktop" how the files disappear.
8. You need to figure out, what you dont want to uninstall and delete those lines before executing them.
9. Okay
10. So you might maybe give LineageOS a try. You wont get it any cleaner than that.

1. Since I use google apps, won't it be good to uninstall only MIUI and advertising apps?
2. OR would be better in your expert opinion to uninstall all including google apps and than reinstall ones required to get a clean phone?
3. Java gets installed in Chrome but doesn't work, despite uninstalling Ad blocker...strange.....would try it with IE.
4. Can I omit Google lens?
Shall keep you updated.

So in away Huawei phones are better with none google apps?
Hi, I just root yesterday with the great help of @KevMetal , thank's again for the help, but now I want to delete some apps, so with TB paid, I just try to delete mi and google apps but it can't, certainly because they are not in system/app but in product.. So I tried with mixplorer and in /product or in /system, I can't delete them..So i try to modify to 644 /system folder, but it refuse...I don't want to mess something because the miss of recovery....
and , how upgrade or update the phone, while rooted?? I suppose OTA won't work anymore..
So I have to remove root and dl new rom and flash with 3 dots menu in settings/about??
do it wipe phone or delete internal data???
and to finish with BL unlocked is there still xiaomi optimize in dev settings...because I install aurora store and it say to disable it but can't find it anymore....
thank you...

Hi, I just root yesterday with the great help of @KevMetal , thank's again for the help, but now I want to delete some apps, so with TB paid, I just try to delete mi and google apps but it can't, certainly because they are not in system/app but in product.. So I tried with mixplorer and in /product or in /system, I can't delete them..So i try to modify to 644 /system folder, but it refuse...I don't want to mess something because the miss of recovery....
and , how upgrade or update the phone, while rooted?? I suppose OTA won't work anymore..
So I have to remove root and dl new rom and flash with 3 dots menu in settings/about??
do it wipe phone or delete internal data???
and to finish with BL unlocked is there still xiaomi optimize in dev settings...because I install aurora store and it say to disable it but can't find it anymore....
thank you...

Use adb shell to remove Google apps and more..
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.googleassistant
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.subscriptions.red
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.xiaomi.midrop
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.xiaomi.miplay_client" -> Mi Play. This is an unnecessary process that hasn't really been used for years.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 cn.wps.xiaomi.abroad.lite" -> WPS Office. Has been flagged for years for malware. This was banned in India for a reason.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.msa.global" -> MSA. This is the main service that displays ads in Xiaomi phones. This is already removed in Xiaomi.EU.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.xiaomi.payment" -> Unless you live in China or India, Xiaomi's own payment service is redundant and unnecessary.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.ebay.carrier" -> In case bloatware from Ebay is installed.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.browser" -> Mi Browser. It's a buggy unnecessary mess. Recommend you use other browsers like Chrome.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.mi.globalbrowser" -> Also part of Mi Browser.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.videoplayer" -> Mi Video player. Uninstall if you prefer to use MX Player or VLC that actually support more formats.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.micloudsync" -> Include if you don't use Mi Cloud.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.hybrid" -> Found to be a data mining app that unnecesarily uses your phone's resources.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.hybrid.accessory" -> Also a data mining app. Very recommend that you get rid of this.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.player" -> Include if you don't use Xiaomi's music app.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.services" -> In case Facebook bloatware was preinstalled.

"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.appmanager" -> Also Facebook bloat.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.xiaomi.glgm" -> Mi Games. Very unncessary.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.xiaomi.mipicks" -> Very unnecessary. Xiaomi's way to advertise their own apps.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.xiaomi.joyose" -> Junk and safe to remove.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.notes" -> Include if you use other notes apps.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.cleanmaster" -> Together with WPS Office, Cleaner Master was found to be affiliated with Cheetah Mobile, that included spyware and adware in their software.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.weather2" -> Include if you use other apps to get the weather like Google or Yahoo.
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.micredit.in" -> Mi Credit. Basically useless if you live outside India.
