Question Cannot Delete System Apps With Root - OnePlus 9 Pro

Cannot delete system apps while rooted and on 11.2.2.2LE15BA.
Tried with TB, LP, and Mixplorer which all show Superuser access in Magisk.
The message I get is "Failed to locate the apk file" in TB, LP can't do it, and Mixplorer says it can't delete.
Anyone have an idea? TIA!!

Yeah it's a known issue, system is RO. You can delete via adb. I use an adb tool on the computer, very easy and it saves the deleted apps in case you want reinstall them. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...app-manager-debloat-tool-for-android.4147837/

or use the magisk module "debloater" if you're rooted

That is a very good option and the one I have used in the past. But trying to modify the list of apps to debloat for me is time consuming, much prefer to see the apps listed on a "big" screen and simply choose what to uninstall or disable. But hey, to each their own.

Thanks for sharing this seemingly great tool. Trying to remove YouTube so I can install the Vanced version without ads and promo skipping. It cannot install over the current YouTube because the Vanced version is lower than the version of YouTube the phone came with (so can't click on uninstall all updates to revert to a version earlier than Vanced current version ).

I used "Debloater" tool (installed from magisk repo) to remove YouTube, reboot, then install Vanced. This used to be my normal process before Vanced Manager anyway, and it has always worked reliably. It requires root, but doesn't require a computer like the adb method.
I also like that I can maintain a text file of things I want to debloat after each OTA and not have to do each one separately in the future. I'm a little hesitant to do a lot of experimental debloating until we have twrp though, so right now YT and YT Music are all that's on my list.

After removing YouTube completely, Vanced still gives me an error that it cannot install due to a newer version on the device so I just ended up installing with settings changed to nonroot. The problem I had before doing it this way however was that YouTube links in a google search result would only open with the YouTube app from the play store and not the separate Vanced YouTube and if I tried it, it would take me to the play store to install YouTube. I hope I don't run into this same issue.

Last time I installed the nonroot way I also had that issue. You should be able to fix it by going to Settings > Apps > Default Apps > Opening Links and changing the settings for Vanced YouTube.

I'm not positive, but I think I've tried that when initially setting up Vanced way back on my OP7 Pro. Cannot confirm though. Did this method fix it for you for sure?

I just tested and it seems to work fine. I don't have regular YouTube installed currently, but links open fine in Vanced YT.

Using termux on rooted 1+9P
In termux enter su and grant Magisk if not done already.
Then do: pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.youtube
Voila, official youtube is gone

Anyone tried to debloat also "file" app just to keep OnePlus app as default system file manager?

YouTube Vanced Magisk not show up

Greetings,
I installed YouTube Vanced through Magisk. The installation is successful and I can see it in module, but YouTube icon won't show up.
Any idea?
Should I try flashing with TWRP?
Update: it seems it's due to it's disabled. Once I enable it, it shows up. I disabled the stock YouTube before flashing Vanced.
Did you before disable youtube app before flashing?

you need to clear the actual youtube app's data and reenable it and also turn off auto update in playstore.

This didn't quite solve the issue for me. I had updated YouTube from the Google Play Store and it overwrote YouTube Vanced. I kept reflashing YouTube Vanced with Magisk, but the original app remained. So I turned off YouTube's auto-update in the Google Play Store, cleared YouTube's data, deleted the YouTube Vanced module in Magisk, rebooted, reflashed the YouTube Vanced module in Magisk, and rebooted one more time. The original YouTube app remained.
So I retried this process one more time, this time disabling the YouTube app first, and it worked after that. I had to disable YouTube and reflash it with Magisk.
Thanks for the instructions!
Answer
Simply if u disable YouTube application then re enable it and go to play store don't press on Update Tap on Open Then everything goes back to normal
No need to Clare data or Again install Module...

I deleted with Terminal Debloater magisk module apps like Chrome, Google Duo, Play Movies, Play Music and Google Photos.
Don't have any issues, so I assume it's safe to disable/delete at least this apps.
I don't have my 5T anymore. I'll have to pay more attention next time I update my wife's 5T. Perhaps my list from the 6T will be useful:
Safe to remove OOS Apps
I've since also found you can remove the shot on OnePlus without any problems as well. (Assuming you don't use this.)

Safety net passes but Google pay doesn't work?

Hey guys. So I have the latest magisk beta v19 and latest magisk manager. My safety net is passing but Google pay doesn't work. Did the new March update make it detect unlocked bootloader? My bootloader is unlocked with TWRP installed. Has anyone tested with and without TWRP installed?

Works for me but I had to make sure to hide the needed apps in MagiskHide (GPay, G Play Services, Framework) and even then, it required me to clear data in Pay, Services > then reboot > then proceed to add a card.
Also check to make sure that auto updates are not on for Google Pay. I think the version matters. My version is currently 2.84.237487748.

Great, I will say its hit or miss sometimes. Mine worked in stores for a few days, then stopped saying I was rooted so I had to redo the method to get it back.
This is the fix
Magisk stable build, all latest official builds of everything else, nothing special. and Magisk hide on google play store, google play services and google pay then - Renaming com.google.android.gms to com.google.android.gms.bak (found in Data/Data) in root browser and then rebooting is the answer .

Question Unable to install Netflix after rooting

So, I managed to root this beauty 1+9 Pro relatively easily.
I got Magisk installed, and hid all the Apps that needed hiding.
Even Google Pay works.
But I can't for my sanity figure out why Netflix or Android OS 11 is refusing to let me install Netflix.
Everytime I try to install the Netflix App latest APK, extracted from my old working phone ( Razer Phone 2 also rooted), it will just give me the error message " Sorry No Application Available "
Does anyone have a clue what can be done to make Netflix install in a rooted 1+9 Pro ?
Thanks.
BTW i tried several Netflix App version already.
Also I do know the APK works because I used it to install on another Tablet that will not show up Netflix on Google store.

Is Netflix currently installed as a system app? I wasn't able to uninstall that or get it working, so when I was on 11.2.2.2 I managed to fix it by installing a *newer* version of the Netflix apk that I grabbed from apkpure.com, over top of the system app. Then I had the same issue again on 11.2.4.4, and that method didn't work anymore. However, that time it let me uninstall updates to the app and then update in the play store.
I dont know how exactly, but Netflix still detects the rooted device and denies the install from google play, I think based in the unocked boot loader not sure.
I managed to install from apkmirror and is working fine now.
there is a catch though.
They are moving away from simple apk install and using apk bundles, like some sort of tarball with several apks in it, so you will need this apkm installer app for it to install the newer version. to get this installer working you need to disabled MIUI optimizations from dev options. thats all, I got mine working this passed saturday that way
EDIT: never mind with that MIUI option i thought this was a diffirent model, none the less the apkmirror is still worth a shot
I some how managed to force install it via Titanium Backup, but then it gives me another error when I try to run Netflix App.
" This device is not supported by the app "
it's running the latest version Netflix v7.102.0 build 12 35461
You have to install Magisk Canary, once you do so reboot the phone. Wipe Google play stores data and cache.. magisk hide Netflix and the Google Play Services reboot once more. That's how I got mine to work.
Install: liboemcrypto disabler
from Magisk, reboot ....enjoy

I did this and had the same problem while unrooted, so it turned out to be a waste of time. It seems to have an issue with the unlocked bootloader, not just root. At least with root you can hide unlocked status, which is a step in the right direction. Hide root from Netflix, and also hide magisk app itself in magisk settings.
If you're trying to install Netflix over the system app, make sure to first uninstall updates to the system app so it's the oldest possible version. Then make sure whatever version you're installing on top (whether from play store or APK download) is newer than your installed version. Older versions will not install over newer ones.

Update.
Minor good news.
I wiped the phone from recovery mode.
So, the phone is kind of factory mode, I completed the "new" phone setup thing, and the first thing I went to try was Netflix and it worked.
So... it appears to be something to do with Root and/or Magisk being detected.
Update 2
More good news, I rooted it again, installed Magisk and Netflix is still working.
Not sure why it wasn't working before, also not quite sure what was the actual fix.
I don't really consider a full system wipe a "fix" but well that did it for me.

So, I just imported Apps and Data from the old phone again via Google "setup my device" transfer, and now Netflix got disabled again.
I'll try again and skip Google transfer to find out if that helps.

Question Youtube Vanced

Hey all. Been trying to hide Youtube Vanced from the play store. It keeps wanting to update. On my OP6T I was able to run installer.zip and detach it by flashing the .zip and that worked great.
It isn't working now, the installer is asking from the youtube.apk to be present in the folder. I can't find the .apk because now Vanced has a manager that installed the .apk for me.
Anyone know any ways that are working? I am using the root version.

Unfortunately the YouTube app started appearing in in the play store again.
You delete the # character near the app you want to detach, put the file in your main storage, then install magisk detach module.

Great find. It works! Here's how in more detail for anyone running across this:
With TeMiFi, detach youtube from play store doing the following in the menu:
> Application Info / Manage
> Detach Package from Playstore
> DETACH: Select package then Protection Level
> Youtube - com.google.android.youtube
> 3- invalidate the data, block any attempted corrections and elicit an error in the calling client
@pf100 I'm glad I could help someone! It is still working for me. Nothing else did.
I used debloat for YouTube to be gone then then I used YouTube Vance's and after that I did detach so that you don't have that problem no more that he wants to update bit after a while he want to update it again then use the detach again then it will be okay
P.s
Also turn of automatic updates just to be sure that YouTube doesn't get updates
Just READ instructions from vanced website or tg group.. TeMeFi works well.

IIRC, I did READ the instructions from the Vanced webpage. Nothing seemed to work properly. Then I found TeMeFi and have been happy ever since.
