Hi everyone
I'm going to install lineage 14.1 on my phone and i wanna ask if it is necessary to install SuperSU before that or not.
If you want to install SuperSu you must install it after flashing the ROM.
And I suggest to use Magisk instead of SuperSu.
Rooting the phone is always useful (AdAway, Camera2API, Greenify, etc.), but it's possible to use it without root, too.
You can use DNS66 instead of AdAway, integrated battery saving options instead of Greenify, etc.
Thank u

In your stock ROMs you are pretty much stuck with the preloaded craps unless you root your device. Now you might not want to root your device for various reasons. For instance, almost all banking apps do not work on rooted devices. A way to tackle this is to use systemless root access provider like magisk. But unfortunately magisk requires Android 5.0+. So we need some other ways for our devices running Android 4.4.4 right? Well, fortunately there is a very simple method for debloating any stock ROM(I personally tested this method on Lenovo A6000 PLus but this should work on any ROM out there).
Note: You need a custom recovery for this to work, which can cause serious harm to your device if you do things incorrectly. You are also tweaking your device's system partition, so you might void your warranty. If anything happens to your device, its your responsibility.
Let's get started
Step 1: Download the "pico" gapps package from opengapps.org. For Lenovo A6000/Plus running stock kitkat, select arm,4.4,pico.
Step 2: Open twrp recovery.
Step 3: Install the pico gapps package that you just downloaded.
Step 4: Reboot your device. Now you will find that most of the google apps have a green icon with android logo(if you are using lenovo launcher). Just remove those apps.
Done
So, Which apps are removed?
Pretty much every apps are removed except Google Play Services, Play Store, Gboard and Play Newsstand. You can disable Newsstand and the security app(which does nothing but eat up space and resources) if you like.

Dude, 1st thing, you said this method needs a custom recovery which means you have to root the device at first or lest consider you just boot twrp using fastboot
And flashing gapps will remove the obselet gapps, and it won't remove the other oem bloatware present so actually this can't br called "Debloating"
Debloating doesn't mean removing gapps, debloating is the removal of useless or apps which can be downloaded from play store, included in the ROMs

Yes you have to use fastboot method but you don't need root access for that and as for the "bloatware" you are referring to, it's any unnecessary app that comes pre-installed with a device which you can't uninstall. Keeping aside the gapps there are only 2-3 apps that fall into that category, which you can just disable as I mentioned. In a device with 8gb or 16gb internal storage every bit of free storage counts. At least it's better than being stuck with all the apps in the first place.

Hello
Happy New Year
I'm Vivek Chourasia...
Im using a Lenovo A6000 1GB ram & 8GB ROM & SD card 32GB Supported.....
I'm facing a lot of issue in using jio sim for using call from Jio4GVoice app... And their are 2many bloatware available. I'm on latest android stock ROM of Lenovo A6000 5.0.2..
What should I do to remove bloatware????
And how to use Jio4GVoice without a single Issue????
Plzzz see my comment
Plzzzz reply to me just for once..,
I have rooted my Pocophone with Magisk and I have installed some magisk modules. Also, I have enabled 60fps video recording with the Helper app. However, I have kept stock recovery.
In order to update to the next stable OTA without any bootloops or data erased, is it enough to simply Uninstall Magisk and then install the OTA inside the Updater app? Will the Helper mod for 60fps cause any problems?
The first is: when i flash gapps stock because i want google dialer and contacts, camera app stops working, but with micro Gapps, the camera work fine.
The second is: what is the best Rom for customizability and efficiency?
Assuming you are using a custom rom.
Your rom coms with preinstalled gcam mod. (Which works)
When you flash open gapps stock, it overwrite that camera app with original gcam, so camera stops working.
Solution:
Install micro gapps, and use Google dialer framework module for magisk, if you want to use Google dialer.
Or use aroma installer gapps and uncheck camera while installing and check dialer framework.

Don't know how can this happen. I'm afraid but maybe you'll have to reinstall this rom.
@avinashvenu2
you may consider to uninstall the Phone PE app by means of ADB.
