Removing Huawei - Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers

I have seen many posts about removing Huawei apps and bloatware. I was curious if removing these apps via adb has any specific effect on the phone operation overall.

Great, it would also be really nice if there was a list of all apk's with their function. I'd love to know what wssomacp.apk does
Also, in the Yet Another Battery Drain thread is a description how to delete email.apk without causing FC's to barcodescanner and similar apps.

It is for "carrier sms system configuration" as you can see in this guide made by nitr8. There's also a more complete one from Doc's thread.

No.
It's just quicker to have a script nuke them all, but, with TiBu, you could make a backup BEFORE nuking.

how about keep small app but removing bottom bar and just having upper side arrow to browses available small apps,
idea is to have new soft key near to back key only the time when recent penal button is pressed

Well have you tried my small apps then? Seems like you haven't tried Once you try my small apps, you'll think otherwise But nonetheless, even my app can be accessed from Normal Launcher so it shouldn't be a hassle either way..

You can also remove it by executing the following commands in ADB shell:
Code:
pm block com.sony.smallapp.app.widget
pm block com.sony.smallapp.launcher
This should even work on non-rooted devices.
Works perfect on dual sim D6633. Tks so much!
Just removed the small apps n launcher, looks so much better than it did stock never used them I don't think

If you got Titanium Backup just delete/freeze every app beginning with "SmallApp...", reboot, done. Works for both KK and Lollipop.
No chance to remove it without root though. Why not root with locked bootloader? I see no disadvantages in that.

Is there a working debloater for oos?

Most of the ones I found are either outdated or for other oneplus devices.
you can use terminal debloater (magisk module) to do that (safest way to debloat in my opinion)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...loater-1-0-t3630135/post77029104#post77029104
Dated, but still works. I use TiBu to take care of whatever the script misses.

But I don't know what is safe to remove and what not.
If you don't know what it does then chances are it shouldn't be removed. In the case of Oxygen OS, the only apps that you can't remove using the native "Disable App" button probably shouldn't be touched. Most apps are simply library apps to help other apps, including ones you install yourself, work with the hardware.

Cool, Thank you sharing.
Does it need to be activated?
Doesn't seem to allow data and cache clearing or am I mistaken?
Appears to be compatible with Pie as well.
The data blocking is a nice feature.
A backup PD is always good to have as time has proven:laugh:

Makes sense that all apps wouldn't be visible on Android 11 for this particular phone.
Something slightly separate, but I had an Android 11 Pixel 3XL over a year ago, and the file managers still worked normally. On this phone, however, since upgrading to the Android 11 Beta, the file managers (I've already tried three different ones) don't work at all when you go to the non-root required drive section that stores your non-system applications (stuff you got from the Play Store). It just shows that every single folder aside from the download folder is empty now on every file manager... So something is most definitely wrong with their current hard drive storage/access on Android 11 - and that could also possibly be why certain apps aren't showing up in the package disabler.
By the way, we have Android 11 Beta4 dropping on this Tuesday (12AM EST), so the official release will probably be around Christmas time (exactly four weeks after beta 4 releases). So we'll see if either of these updates fix this goofy issue.

Tried installing it on my 10+ running on Pie.
Install ok but it wanted a login created to do -anything-
So I did but it was glitchy. Even after I created an account it didn't want to login.
Grrrrr...
I have a working PD so for now I don't need to muck with this...
Got tired of saying kind, nurturing things to it, and kicked it out:laugh:
On Beta, it works amazingly. But it is missing a few system apps like calculator and such but im guessing thats because of beta. Otherwise amazing.
This app is amazing
Just disabled over 50 useless system apps
My phone is flying now ? ?
Everything is way faster even fingerprints and face unlock
Thanks soo much
