Hi
Im the same guy who made this post a few months-
Now, Im trying to get rid some bloatware that aƱsp could be used in malicious way like _
Dex. An attacker could do whatever on the users laptop and the guy wont even notice. Settings is showing as dual app even tho ive never touched dual apps.. i guess this happens once you open dex for the first time
So, any simpl.istic way to compltetely get rid of DEX and Bixby Routines?
The elephant on the room here is that google assumes any random google account logged in that tablet. OWNs the tablet.
Ofc this could be done by having good google security passwords on the google account. Enforce tat!
Or ask us if we reeaaaalllly wanna execute those random rutines someone just sent to is throw wifi

Use a Package Disabler or adb edit to kill them.
I disable both.

I need to completely get rid of those normie features. Tell me which files I have to delete do it doesn't work at all.
This is what's on my N10+/Pie variant.
You might want to keep Bixby Vision though if you have it. Used for reading barcodes etc.
Not sure if it's dependent on any other Bixby apps.

Im looking for an app or the way to manager account apps. I have a lot of apps that were downloaded and installed but currently not used or even not welcomed. I can remotely delete them from the account by pressing DELETE button in MY APPS in Google Store, like on screen:

}
But this way is a pain in the ass and Im looking for more easier way to delete unneeded apps. There is no way to do this via google store web page on PC
I'm affraid this ain't possible.
I also have been checking the Play Store website, but even there you can't remove them from the list.
On the other hand, why is it irritating you? You can easily see which apps you have installed in Settings > Apps
It is irritating cause I cant delete them. I just want to get rid of them from my account history.
I know I can manage apps for example from Titanium Backup but only those installed

There's a big request going on since a long time. And it seems Google doesn't really care yet...
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
I see. April 2012. Google doesnt even care. But I thought about some independent app which could exist.
thanks for information
I have found the way to remove it fast. Its kinda stupid but who though about such thing?
Long press on one app, then multiselect other apps. Like selecting few elements then DELETE button
I got rid off 2000 unused apps
You know a year or so ago google updated the market to include music movies and some more bs that i never wanted on my phone (and a terrible icon). I found out that if you remove all read write permissions from /system/app/marketupdater.apk and then uninstall all market updates you wouldn't have to use the play store but you could always enjoy the android market the way nature intended.
Next you made google + and and forced us to use it if we wanted to review apps. No problem once a month I make a google account make all my reviews and then delete it.
Now you go off and install this app on my phones and then when I delete it it comes right back like jason. Guess what....... wait for it.... I figured out a way to stop it ( wish there was a smiley face with a middle finger). Any ways lol here it is
Okay so the first thing you need to download this apk here
uninstall google play services
Then either put it on you sdcard and install it or adb install it simple done
If your wondering what it is it's simple it's a package with the same package name as the the google play services no main activity or anything
If you like this hit thanks and if you have some mirrors thanks.
Video here http://youtu.be/qzVpoMXoApc
P.S Youtube does work make sure that you uncheck automatic updates from all google products so they can't fix this also probably a good idea to resign the google play apk so that it can't do automatic updates anymore
P.P.S go here for an original android market that doesn't update just minds it's own and delivers apps

I am positively shocked this is not a larger issue. With the removal of the always listening options for Google Now this devices overall appeal has been greatly limited based kmy needs.
Does anyone in the community know why these features were removed or have any idea on if/when they will return?
with the newest version it's there if you put the widget on homescreen

I have everything up to date including google play services and have placed the widget on the home screen but am still only seeing 1 option. Which is to allow "OK Google" from the app.

That's not the same thing at all. For starters it takes a whole row of icons. Also it will only work when you are on that specific screen. It won't work if you have an app open and most importantly it doesn't work when the screen is off.
This certainly isn't a hardware limitation, but I think Samsung did this to get users to try the new (and greatly improved s voice). I bet their plan is to bring back Google always on detection in a later update after many people try out s voice.
Anyways in the meantime check out s voice, you might be pleasantly surprised.
I know..but all Samsung phones even nexus had have problems with that actual
Hey guys.
When I was exploring the Internet via chrome my phone has been infected. The new tab opened by itself, phone started to vibrate and page said that my phone is infected and that I should download Antivirus (but this page was similar to other pages with slogans "YOU WON 100K$ CLICK HERE etc.) so I ignored it. Now after every call (only then) Clean Master is saying that I already installed "Games " so I can delete apk file. Sometimes I press YES or sometimes I press No and sometimes it appear on desktop as game (last time it was yahoo logo) sometimes it doesn't. Clean Master Says That is malware with ".bf" extension. I tried every AV, even Avast didn't find anything. I tried also looking for this file by my self but no results (CM Antivirus also find nothing) . (gonna add name of virus for better tagging)
NAME OF VIRUS:
Android .Troj.tb_downloader.bf

I think that is ads... Btw to be safe you can always format your phone, be sure backup your data and contacts.. If you are rooted use adblocking software.. If not use browser which supports adblocking features..there are many in playstore

Ghostery is a great adblock browser
So.. What happened was..
I've debloated my G892AUCU5CTA2 (S8 active) via adb Bridge and as it was a stringent debloating list it uninstalled most of the Samsung bloat. This is usually fine, right?
The issue occurred after I realized through my tinkering w/ Synergy, that for proper application I would need to reinstall Galaxy Store and Themes. So.. Mistakenly I downloaded the Galaxy Store from a non-official source mainly based on laziness and stupidity. This is the Galaxy Store i downloaded.. https://galaxy-apps.en.uptodown.com/android The first thing that obvi wasnt right and still persists even after I uninstalled that version and reinstalled official Galaxy Store is this

Very quickly after installing, this fugazi store tried to immediately download what'sapp, scary, and vigilantly, I stopped that download as well as a bunch of others that were all Chinese or Indian. I disabled data and uninstalled the package and every other other package too! So upon reinstalling like I mentioned up above from Samsungs website, I still have this login in Chinese..
What to do?
If you couldnt tell by my bootloader/build that my phone isn't rootable, I debloated via adb.. I'm very new to the phone world and would love and appreciate very much some help and tips/info as I'm going to start a bachelor in computer science this winter and don't know really kno anything in comparison to the vastness in ya'lls ability and knowledge. So any required reading on top of help with the fix would be very lovely. Maybe a mentor? So.. Maybe dm me if you wouldn't mind developing a friendship w/ the loyalest of well meaning ineffectual. Thanks guys
