Hey guys i tried to block the Whats New app as described in the Z3 Compact forum hoping it would work on the XX:
ikon8 said:
You can use ADB on unrooted devices to remove the "What's New" option from the NavRing and to remove the Small Apps Widget launcher from Recent Apps.
I will assume you know how to install and use ADB.
To remove the "What's New" option from the NavRing:
Code:
adb shell
pm block com.sonymobile.advancedwidget.entrance
exit
adb reboot
Make sure to reboot before proceeding if you're removing both items.
To remove the Small Apps Widget Launcher from the Recents screen:
Code:
adb shell
pm block com.sony.smallapp.launcher
pm block com.sony.smallapp.app.widget
exit
adb reboot
To revert changes substitute "unblock" for "block" in the command.

However it says the block command is not known.
I tried to use
Code:
pm hide com.sonymobile.advancedwidget.entrance
instead but it responses with:
Code:
Error: java.lang.SecurityException: Neither user 2000 nor current process has android.permission.MANAGE_USERS.
Altough i granted ADB shell access in SuperSu.
Does anybody know howto block or remove the What's new app?

What are you using? Does package disabler pro work on the Note 10? Used it on the Note 8 but just got mine late last night. Also wondering if Synergy and Substratum lite are working, don't want to break a $1200.00 phone on the first day.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76687505&postcount=9
EDIT:
Don't use Package Disabler Pro, doesn't work, won't uninstall and locks your phone up - already had to do a FDR because of it.
Would also like to know.

Am just taking it slow, manually, don't want to mess things up on this shiny new phone. I use ADB shell commands to get into app packages, not every samsung package is showing up when trying to look for them by association (E.g:" adb shell pm list packages -f<package name> ") Some are easy like facebook, kids apps, netflix, chrome and a few others. The whole list of packages is 8 pages long, I printed it, so i can compare all lines to XDA tutorials for S10 to find the most obvious and safe pkgs to remove.
Here is a link to useful adb shell commands. When you are already in the "adb shell" state, you can just start the command line with "pm" right after $, skip typing the "adb shell" - much easier.

Exynos w. root can do it, not an option on Snapdragon. I think I found and disabled all fb instances and it's going to last until the next OTA Q update.
Here is what they are(fb related):

d2q:/ $ pm list packages -f facebook

Well I wont be rooting my note 10 just yet. My note 9 is rooted with custom rom and I am keeping it as backup.
Would like note 10 non rooted so I can use banking apps and samsung pay and so on.
So with the above adb commands I cannot remove Facebook?
I mean disable I can just do on the phone without the need for adb terminal. I would like to completely delete it from my phone and keep it non rooted.
And em I have not messed around with adb for years so I think I need to install it on pc if the deletion can be done unrooted...

I guess that's the route I'll go. Installed Franciso Franco's Nap Time and had to use a couple of ADB commands, see if it will help the battery.
Yep started debloating yesterday. I refuse to buy package disabled pro as every time samsung makes a change he releases it as a new version and expects you to pay again as the old version stops working. So switched to CCSWE and it just works, bit by likewise was the first thing to go
In case anyone is looking to remove Netflix
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.netflix.mediaclient
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.netflix.partner.activation
Few more useless things associated with browser
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.providers.partnerbookmarks
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.bookmarkprovider
And this is in case you remove stock launcher. Even if you dont use it, you still need it for "recent apps" key
adb shell cmd package install-existing com.sec.android.app.launcher

Yes, you have to be careful with de-bloat, they have extended tutorials in Galaxy S10/10+:

Strange it works great on my Note 10. It's rooted now and on Android 11 but worked fine on my Note 10 with Android 10 before I rooted.
Here is an universal script that should work on every Nokia device right from the first gen devices upto Nokia 9 Pureview.
Exert from my Github readme.md -
Nokia-Debloater
A simple noob-friendly script that debloats your phone from the evenwell apps and soon, Google Apps.
What is evenwell and why should I care?
Evenwell/FiH is chinese company. Specifically, They are a subsidary of the massive Foxxconn group that manufactures consumer electronics for sale around the world. This Evewell group were a business partner of Nokia/HMD and they were responsible for manufacturing and building the software on these phones. We all know the second generation devices from Nokia i.e Nokia 6.1, Nokia 6.1 Plus, Nokia 7 Plus etc are android one devices which are supposed to come with clean software and no bloat. On the surface, These devices have no bloat, But when you go digging deeper into settings and the system, You will encounter them evenwell apps.
What do these apps do?
These apps are supposedly to maintain system stability and protect battery among various other services/features. There are also telemetry apps that send data to the chinese. This is the reason I've decided to create this script.
Nokia has supposedly stopped using the evenwell services/apps, Why would you uninstall them?
Simple, Because
1. I do not want any dead app that previously had an history of snooping in my system.
2. They are not supposed to be there in the first place.
Convinced yet? Get the script from here and you can start.
Enable usb debugging and connect to PC, Put the .bat file in the same folder as your ADB and run the script. Profit.

No worries, This script is safe for users with locked bootloaders and you will not have issues with updates at all.

Thanks! btw any idea this is universal or some specific region thing? I kinda look into the script in the bat file, and found out some line is end with "ww" like,
evenwell.powersaving.g3.overlay.base.s600ww
evenwell.dataagent.overlay.base.s600ww
in my device i still have that but end with id:
evenwell.powersaving.g3.overlay.base.s600id
evenwell.dataagent.overlay.base.s600id
my country is Indonesia, so i suspect that is my region code. I Have some failed line when running .bat file too, something like
failed "app not found or 0 app not installed"
I don't know the exact it just too fast and at first didn't think much of it. Or it just some app that didn't intend to be deleted.

It's region specific. ID stands for Indonesia, WW stands for Worldwide and there is one more, I guess its RR or something that is for the russian region.
Thanks for the heads up, I will update the script with other Regions also:good:

Failed here just means that the app was not found and hence not deleted. The script will never touch the other apps other then ones I've added.

Clearing Dalvik Cache and Cache data is not possible on Treble devices. Google Did away with caches because of the A/B system this phone uses.
I'll look into what I can do.
BTW, Region specific Apps can now be debloated, Uploading to Git soon
@luminousMazin A feature to remove cache data has been added to the latest release.

How to confirm this script is working?
I already run this script when I was still on Pie and leave it..
After Android 10 update, I checked evenwell apps still remains on my device, I found it through battery optimization settings (screenshot attached), there's so many of them...
Or is it reinstalled after 10 upgrade??
Can I reuse this script on 10?

Hello Guys my wife bought a xiaomi mibox MDZ-20-AA , chinese language, i know that is possible to root it and change it on international version, i have an old tuto for the MDZ-19-AA, is it the same way for the 20-AA or is there a tutorial for my version.
Thanks for your answers
Yannis
I tried rooting it, but I was worried of bricking it so I went with the safest option.
I know it's not the best option but at least makes it bearable.
Step 1:
Download a third-party launcher, my recommendations are ATV launcher or TVlauncher.
Step 2:
Find Settings (in the new launcher look for system settings)
and install ADB with this guide: https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/
Step 3:
Connect via USB or WiFi
1. Connect your PC with a Male-to-Male USB cord. Give the command
Code:
adb devices
in cmd to see if your device has been connected successfully.
2. Connect the devices with the same WiFi and find the IP in the box and give the command in cmd
Code:
adb connect (Your.IP.Address)
Confirm you connection with the command
Code:
adb devices
.
Step 4:
App Store
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.xiaomi.mitv.appstore
Mi Home
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.xiaomi. smarthome.tv
Xiaomi Store
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.xiaomi.mitv.shopXiaomi
Payment
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.xiaomi.mitv.paymentXiaomi
Wallet
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.mipay .wallet.tv
Game center
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.xiaomi.mibox.gamecenterXiaomi
MiTv settings
adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.xiaomi.mitv.settings
If you want to see what else is installed on your mibox, just type:
Simple view:
pm list packages
Detailed view:
pm list packages -f
Step 4:
Now all the xiaomi launcher and apps are uninstalled find other apps
Launchers:
1. Atv Launcher(confirmed)
2. TvLauncher(confirmed)
3. HALauncher(confirmed)
4. Top TV Launcher 2(unconfirmed)
Youtube alternatives:
SmartYoutubeTV(confirmed)
Market Store:
1. Aptoide(confirmed)
2. APKPure(needs mouse)(confirmed)
3. F-Doid(needs mouse)(confirmed)
Browsers:
Puffin Browser(confirmed)
DuckDuckGo Browser(unconfirmed)
TVWeb Browser(unconfirmed)
Movies:
1. Stremio
2. PopcornTime
3. PopcornFlix (if u live in the US)
4. Kodi
For more apps check Aptoide tv
Anyways if you want to root anyways you can use this video (Russian language) for reference:
(link to youtube) watch?v=ZqPr6Vq0fUw
files:
(link to google drive) open?id=1Ki7p56otzAh31jYzMV7BKkxNYhjWZCWL
(if it works please tell me)
Screensaver
I am with a problem with the screensaver, when I am watching a movie it keeps working. Somebody know how to stop it?
I removed with "adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.xiaomi.mibox.lockscreen" but it continues, maybe is not this

That happened to me too try "adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.xiaomi.mibox.screensaver"
I'm not sure for the package name but anyways try the pm list packages in adb and search for screensaver and remove it.

Greetings everyone, my question is about which system services is it safe to disable via adb shell, here are some screenshots, my device is huawei y6 2019 and by the way I speak Spanish, I would appreciate an answer ...
My understanding of bloatware is they are by OEM pre-installed apps - installed as system apps: System services are never bloatware, they are integral part of Android OS.
You can disable each of these apps running ADB command
Code:
adb shell "pm disable-user --user 0 <package_to_disable>"
my question which apps from the screenshots can be disabled please
