DebloatEx v1.4
For me, every additional app which i don't use is too much. Why should an app be installed, if i don't use it? So i wrote a little debloater script, which i can flash over every rom i install. Also i added some extras which i need for my daily use.
Information:
First: This is NOT a full rom. It's a script to flash over a rom. The script uses a aroma installer. Every app can be selected manually for removal. Also the apps are not removed entirely. The are moved to a backup folder. So they can be easily restored if an app, which was removed, is missing after the flash. Additionally you can choose if you want to remove the gallery images, ringtones and notifications ringtones.
Because you can remove the lg launcher and/or the lg sms app, i decided to add nova launcher and google messenger as replacement apps. Of course they are also optional to install.
Furthermore i added a nfc mod, to enable nfc while screen is off or while screen is on and lockscreen is on. And of course this is also optional. You can choose to use stock nfc behavior. Aaaaand there is more. I added the CTT mod from Robshr to eliminate lags. This one is not selectable because i think this mod is essential for our device.
Attention:
The script is in a very early state. There can be bugs, so be sure to make a backup from your rom with TWRP before you flash the zip.
DebloatEx and hasenbolle are not responsible for any possible damage done to your device as a result of flashing.
I will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.

Extras:
CTT Mod v4 to eliminate lag and more. This is a must have. It really helps to improve the lag behavior of the G4.
Restoring apps:
No app/folder will be deleted. Every app will be just moved to the folder: system/__Backup
From there you should move the apps to either /system/app or /system/priv-app back. You should move the folder (and not copy), otherwise the permissions will be messed up. Just use a root file manager for that (Solid Explorer etc.)

Hi,
Thank you for your script. It worked great ! It seems I accidently removed the smartnotice widget and clock programs, including the alarm manager and now I cannot set an alarm. Can you please tell me which packages I have to restore in order to get my alarm manager and smartnotice back again ? Otherwise all is fine and I find it very usefull, thank you !

It should be the "LGAlarmClock" package for the alarm clock. Maybe i should that one leave unchecked. So that it wont be removed by default.
For SmartNotice i think these two packages should be moved back to the app/priv-app folder: LIAInformant and LIAS4URecommender
I will write a note in the aroma installer under the app. Thanks for your post

I have used my debloat list to debloat my Imperium v1.0 rom.
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65512967&postcount=17
I am also experiencing Play Services FC.
Did you solve your issue?
What should be restored?
thx
pOpY
In my case I applied the script after a fresh install of imperum rom. I tryed to apply directly and got that play services fc...so i dirty flashed imperium and applied the script with no errors so far
I wiped my phone yesterday and flashed also imperium 1.1 and then directly without a reboot the debloat script. This procedure worked for me everytime without a fc from google play services.
Do you have a H815 EU?

Please let us know, if the FCs doesnt come back in some days.

Will let you know about my results.
Do you have Xposed + AMplify running?

which packages should I move to :
1. to return to work the settings icon on the notification bar
2. to return to work the "delete all " on the recent app (which is now infinite ) @hasenbolle

Hi,
It's not necessary to reinstal the mod after flashing a new kernel. The mod actually moves unnecessary programs and services in a folder on your phone in case you need to restore them so no need to reflash it again as it already done it's job.
I like it very much ! It improved my phone performance and battery life as it remove many programs and services I don't use. The only problems I met are that it removes the clock, the calendar and smartnotice programs and widgets. But it was easy to restore them from the backup folder and setting the permissions so now everything works fine. Just a quick suggestion - maybe in the next version it would be great if there is an option to choose if these programs to be removed. Thanks !

Now two times my google play services had an fc also. It occured when i was using the c:geo geocaching app and therefore using locations services. Do you use the location services (gps)?

You can choose which programs you want to remove. You just need to untick the app in aroma and it wont be removed. The clock will not be removed by default in the new version.

i am using location services all the time with tasker but i have set it to "battery saving".
After resetting my Amplify settings and using default (nlpwakelock -> location services) my phone didnt had any FC since days now.
Maybe its worth a try...

I just installed this and get stuck at the lockscreen. I try entering my pattern and it recognises it but then doesn't actually unlock the screen. Thoughts?

Hi, This is about Android@LeWaOS 2.0 for our Gio.
ROM is ported from Ace (official ROM).
Nice new UI, new apps, good battery life, performance (fast and very good RAM memory management)
and it's stable, lite and bugs free.
============
Tips... ***
============
1. Google apps
-Before you add your Google account you have to Turn on background data.
2. Languages
-LeWaOS 2.0 is based on CM7 so you can add manually languages from CM (same files in framework and settings)
and you will have 50% translated ROM. (In ROM is added: Polish(new), English, Chinese and Turkish(new) ).
3. Performance
-Adrenaline Engine is included, (and LeWa added some SCRIPTS/TWEAKS) so you can remove it, Uninstaller
-The best setting is 250 min, 825 max and smartassv2 governor of CPU.
4. In ROM is no File manager, Email and Internet Browser, you can download better app from Play Store.
For Example:
Good file manager is here MiXplorer
For Internet you can download Dolphin Browser for Android...
My changes:
Base:
-Used latest CM7 files
-2.6.35.7 U235 Farzad kernel
UI:
-New fresh UI, some Android L (5.0 Lollipop) graphics and other changes
-Lite Android - 5.0 Lollipop Bootanimation
-New nice fonts
-Changes in default theme
-New ICS lockscreen
-Removed Chinese symbols and added more readable
Apps:
-Updated and added missing apps
-Removed and changed Chinese graphics and apps
-HTC keyboard
-Google Shop+Mod
-Added working USB tether
-DSPmanager+mods
-New lite, nice Clock Widgets moded by me
-Google Apps added
Languages:
-Added Polish and Turkish (officialy only English and Chinese)
Other:
-GPS conf edited
-Clean, modified build.prop
-Added Live wallpapers option in menu
-Removed option for update (it was for Ace)
...and maybe more...
NOTHING MORE TO SAY, JUST LOOK ON SCREENSHOTS:

I must say I was very skeptical about yhis rom and I was wrong. It is a very smooth and stable, even loaded with many apps. I am very, very pleased with it. My thanks to developers!
-- for Google account problem, I think you must enable background data before adding G account.
When I open Google Services switch, and I want to disable google contact sync, I got force close message.

With this music app i never had problems,

See this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/development-d802/extra-stock-lp-debloater-d802-t3110347
Hello, I have used this debloater, and unselected "QuicksetSDK" and "QRemote" but for some reason, QRemote isnt there anymore, how can I get it back? I can't find where to get the .apk for it.
Really great, much appreciated.

Can one of you test to dirty flash the rom you use again , reboot , boot to recovery again and then use the debloater but don't select LGNFC , QUICKSETSDK and QREMOTE !
That should do the trick.

Google Play Movies, Google Play Games, Google Play Music, SIM Toolkit, Voice Memo and Video Editor are still in my ROM after applying your Script.
Can anybody confirm? Would it be possible to add these apps to your ZIP?

Go to my EXTRA debloater thread ... i've added Google Play Movies, Google Play Games, Google Play Music, SIM Toolkit, Voice Memo and Video Editor
Link to Extra debloater in OP
BTW : I've learned a lot today ,because when i was trying to remove the google services (play movies,games,music) the folders where deleted but i had still the apps on my phone.
I've installed an apk info app , and so i could figure out that these apps also use an other folder on the data partition ... so now it's fixed.
All recommendations are still welcome
Kuoi,
GREAT WORK! I can confirm that it is working. Here my observations:
- after I ran the ZIP the Google Apps (Google Play Movies, Google Play Games, Google Play Music) where still there but now it was possible to uninstall them within Lollipop.
- SIM Toolkit, Voice Memo and Video Editor are deleted as expected by executing the ZIP
- in your App your comment about SIM Toolkit is that you do not recommend to delete it. Why? I have deleted SIM-Toolkit and the LG G2 runs normally
- maybe you can add Youtube to the list?
- maybe you can add Music to the list - assuming that there are plenty of free music apps in Google Play
- in the safe LP debloater you can delete Mail - isn't that one of the basic apps that should remain in the OS?
- maybe it would be easier for you as developer and for users to put the safe and the extra debloater together into one ZIP. There you could maintain two categories (save and extra).
Regards,
Gregor

- SIM Toolkit, Voice Memo and Video Editor are deleted as expected by executing the ZIP
- in your App your comment about SIM Toolkit is that you do not recommend to delete it. Why? I have deleted SIM-Toolkit and the LG G2 runs normally
- maybe you can add Youtube to the list?
- maybe you can add Music to the list - assuming that there are plenty of free music apps in Google Play
- in the safe LP debloater you can delete Mail - isn't that one of the basic apps that should remain in the OS?
- maybe it would be easier for you as developer and for users to put the safe and the extra debloater together into one ZIP. There you could maintain two categories (save and extra).

Gregor

Thanks for the info.
Did you use D802 and stock LP rom to remove Google apps ? On my device they were deleted after the debloat and i didn't have to uninstall them afterwarts.
I'll delete the sim toolkit coomment because it's only with some sim's and in some countries it seems to give a little problem.
Youtube and music will be added soon
I'll keep mail on the debloater because i don't use Gmail ... it's not a necessary app to keep your phone working.
You're right .. i didn't think about it ,but I'll put the 2 versions together in 1 zip.
I could put them on 1 flash zip , but according to me the list would be too long and imo the extra is more for people who know what they're doing and what they're removing
Thanks for the reply
Hi Kuoi,
yes, D802 with stock LP but I got it as a ZIP (Software version V20b-OPEN-COM) to be installed through TWRP - so maybe it is not 100% original.
Regarding Mail I was referring to "LGEmail : LG email client". I understand that Gmail ist no a neccessary app.
Of course it is ok to have 2 ZIPs. But IMHO there are also some sophisticated apps in the safe ZIP, f. e.
- Facelock: I would not know of any app that can be engaged into setting
- LgNfc: it is required for the NFC hardware
- LGBrowser: ok you can use any other browser
But maybe I am mistaken since I am not too experienced with Android. So in the end your ZIPs are great so safe a lot of storage :good:
Regards,
Gregor

Yep, unzip results in 2 folders, they are already labeled as "app" and priv-app". Drop those folders into system/

Well today an update was released, i was sure to reinstall all the bloatware apps and was not "soft bricked" :good:

1) No, you wont be able to update via OTA if u delete the bloatware...Just freeze them don't delete...It will be easier to update via OTA next time...
2) Why do u want the bloatware backup? Just flash the stock rom...You will get everything back (bloatware) and then flash/update the latest firmware... NOTE: IF U ARE ON A ROOTED SYSTEM UN-ROOT FIRST AND THEN APPLY OTA...
See this thread for flashing the latest OTA forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/guide-to-apply-ota-bootloop-rooted-zf2-t3127835
hi,
if i just freeze all the bloatware, will i still get more free ram as if i had removed it?

Yes u will get free ram as if u had removed it... But if u are worried about internal storage space then i am afraid i have to say u might lose some system space... I recommend u to freeze the apps u wont be using and don't delete any bloatware...Next time it will be easier to update and u won't have to flash the stock or pre-rooted img again and again...I myself have freezed the bloatware...
Hi !
I've got a ZE500CL since 1 month, I've rooted it with the One-Click tool, it's works just fine ! I've used Titanium Backup to freeze apps, my phone is clean now.
Today my phone tell me that an OTA was ready to install... I'm very careful, so I :
- Unfreezed all bloatwares
- Unroot
- Flash OTA
- Root
- Freeze bloatware
This method works perfectly but I'm not sure if unfreeze/freeze apps is necessary (for me it's like disable an app in Android)... Can you confirm me ?
Second question :
If I want more storage memory... I will uninstall apps ! But I'll backed up with Titanium Backup and put it on my PC
For the OTA, can I do like this :
- Reinstalled all the bloatwares with Titanium Backup
- Unroot
- Flash OTA
- Root
- Remove bloatwares
This is dumb questions but I don't want bootloop LOL
Thanks for reply and sorry for the long post
Does de-bloating improves ur battery performance if its so i will also do it but after few updates and let my device improve ......for now m just waitin for the perfect update hope it comes soon:laugh::fingers-crossed:

Firstly, all the credits in the following links, go to the original authors. Iam just sharing in a nutshell.
Next, Sharing my Experience after rooting my Zenfone-2:
I have found that even after rooting my phone, some of the bloatware cannot be disabled. But can be uninstalled.
Uninstalling bloatware after rooting did not improve RAM management significantly. Neither the battery life. The RAM management is integrated in to android lollipop rom itself. Only ASUS can fix,as far as i know.
The another important thing i found in Zenfone-2 is the processor scaling. Intel configured in " Interactive Mode". Most of the other phones I found were in " On Demand" mode. Such as Mediatek phones. In those phones, battery life was good.
In Zenfone-2, in Zero load conditions, the processor stays at 500Mhz in all Four cores. Where as in Mediatek, cores go to sleep mode. ASUS and Intel should look in to this modification of processor scalling, for better battery life.
Now coming to the point....Once you remove the so called bloatware, which are actually integrated in to the ZEN-UI system settings, the OTA will fail, as the link within the system build is broken. So OTA will check and says failed.
It is always good to do the following. I tried and tested it on my phone.
1. DO-NOT Unlock bootloader, unless you are a developer and trying to test your own custom ROM. For kinders, rooting is more than enough.
2. ROOT the phone using temporary CWM only. Installation of Custom Recovery will not update the OTA. So that the original recovery stays intact, even after rooting. . When you get an OTA, just unroot the phone using SuperSU apps, full unroot option and then restart and install OTA.
3. ALWAYS KEEP the Original Latest build rom file handy. If any thing goes wrong after rooting and fiddling with the system apps, you can simply using adb sideload from recovery mode, can flash the original rom and get your device back to factory un-rooted phone.
4. ONE IMPORTANT thing is that the build no of the rom file and the build no on the phone should be same. The phone will not accept lower version of the build. For example, if it is 2.19.40.18 on the phone. So only 2.19.40.18 will get installed but not 2.18.40. Any thing above 2.19.40 will also get easily installed. Since the bootloader is locked and downgrade process is locked.
The links to download the build as required is,

TWISTED MATE 8
If you're like a lot of Nexus users out there and you like your ROM to look and feel like the Nexus series of phones then this ROM is for you. Included and integrated are a ton of Google Apps. This is always based off of the latest stock ROM. It's fast and stable. My goal is to remove as many Huawei apps as I can while still making everything work properly. Requests are welcome but please make them reasonable. Changelogs are in post #2.

I am not responsible for anything that may happen to your phone as a result of installing any custom roms. You are doing so at your own risk and take full responsibility upon yourself. If you have issues please try and come up with your own solution before you post them and I will do my best to get back to you. If any others have any solutions, please feel free to help as well. There are some issues you may have that no one else has. Remember that you decided to flash the ROM and if something no longer works the way you want it to please try and come up with a solution on your own before posting. There is a Forum Search on the left side of the Mate 8 homepage, please use it. Remember, I do this in my spare time and sometimes life gets overwhelming and I may not be able to help right away. Please hit the thumbs up button if you like what I've done.
**YOU MUST HAVE EITHER DONE THE OTA TO B3xx OR HIGHER OR MANUALLY UPDATED TO B3xx OR HIGHER VIA THE DLOAD METHOD BEFORE FLASHING THIS ROM. YOU ALSO NEED TO BE ON TWRP 3.0.2 FOR EMUI 4.1 BEFORE YOU FLASH ANY B3xx OR HIGHER CUSTOM ROM'S. IF YOU HAVEN'T DONE THIS PLEASE DO SO. IF YOU DON'T AND ENCOUNTER ANY WEIRD BUGS I CANNOT HELP YOU**

Helpful Hints:
-If you're having trouble hitting next after the language screen, remove the HWStartupGuide.apk from the ROM, then dirty flash it.
-Download the removed apps, and remove the apps from the zip you don't want to restore then flash the zip to restore any apps that I removed that you may need or want.
-On first boot you may see some Chinese writing in the lockscreen and the status bar. Go to settings--->K-Settings--->Notification settings and uncheck Show statusbar lunar then go into Lockscreen settings and uncheck Lunar calendar and Desktop weather lunar.
-Flash the Huawei Launcher & Weather zip if you want to use the stock Huawei Launcher with Weather Widget instead of Google Now Launcher.
awesommeeeeeee, first custom(ized) rom for the mate 8, wooohoooo! thanks a lot buddy
questions: quick reboot is basically just soft reboot, right? also,would dpi at 400 be equivalent to the "small" display option in the huawei settings?
Sent from my Huawei Mate 8 NXT-AL10 using Tapatalk
Does this rom fix the notifications issues? Such as whatsapp push notifications
well at this point in time its still a bit early to flash this rom as a daily driver, check out the bug list but already subscribed this thread for future developments
I had some root problems with kingroot, ended up flashing SuperSU zip 2.52 and it fixed the problem for me.
Is it only me, or the download link is not clickable?
The ROM is being worked on I'll post the link tonight for those who wanna flash. It's a start.

Yeah it's a soft boot menu. 400 dpi would probably be small but you can always change it in the build.prop.

Move the apps you want from data/app to system/app. That fixes the notifications for me. The same bugs as in stock will carry over to Simply Google until Huawei fixes them.

If you flash any SuperSU with this it won't boot. I'm having a hard time getting things ironed out in Marshmallow. Things are a little different than Lollipop as far as scripts kernels etc....

You can download it, I posted the link in the OP.
so working with l29 ?
no root in rom?
I'm speaking from experience, I just flashed this ROM along with SuperSU and it booted just fine the first time. As much as I would love to stay on the ROM, themes don't apply
Awesome. I don't mind the Huawei GUI, but would prefer stock Android. Would it be possible to post a screen shot? Would it be likely to support OTA updates? I'm still on the Chinese ROM and wasn't going to change until saw some benefit.
it will definitely not support ota updates...

So you installed the rom and flashed SuperSU right after you installed? The themes don't do much without the stock Launcher. I made this to be quite a bit independent of the Huawei apps.

Awesome. I don't mind the Huawei GUI, but would prefer stock Android. Would it be possible to post a screen shot? Would it be likely to support OTA updates? I'm still on the Chinese ROM and wasn't going to change until saw some benefit.

No you won't get stock ota updates on most custom roms but it's easy to flash back to stock. Just backup your stock rom before you flash so you can always go back to complete stock.

Yeah, I flashed the ROM then the SuperSU then booted the phone
This is based on stock 2BA firmware.
Requirements
This requires a UsU'ed device
What's the purpose of this?!?
because making stuff like this is fun!
I made this for people who have Verizon and are waiting for @steadfasterX to update the blobs for LOS.
I wanted to make a rom that replaces the default launcher (because it's dated and ugly) and remove the pointless Verizon apps ( like Verizon cloud, Verizon Security & Privacy, and Verizon Navigator).
Added things
nova launcher
black player (music player)
xda labs
android messages
Twilight(blue light filter)
magisk
change the default wallpaper
Multi-window mod
Removed things
default launcher
music player
Verizon cloud
Verizon Security & privacy
Verizon Navigator
Verizon messager
Verizon Location Agent
DT Ignite
Issues
The home selector in settings is broken
Installing instructions
before you install it in twrp, do a factory reset. (the built-in magisk installer will not successfully install the magisk manager if you factory reset after you install)
Download
Android file host
Adding features request/found issues?
you want me to add something to this rom? you can notify me with gethub issues tracker
Just don't go too crazy with it! (xposed themes, what I research so far, they can't be added to a rom like this so don't request it unless you know differently. )

It keeps displaying that notification "This yes is not verizon "? Or did you also withdraw it? Have bugs in the ROM?
You should put a UsU tag in the title.

Ok, I Did it. I'm still working on a new update to this rom. I will update the title and add what I added to the update in the update section once I release it.
Just UsU'ed (not sure I'm using that right lol) my VS986 and installed this. Working well! Thank you!
Working well! LIKE IT
