[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] purplepenguin:
Thank you so much Elliwigy! I was one of the people asking for this! Haha. My only question is - On Extreme Syndicate I had some issues connecting to my PC as an MTP device/being able to plug in and view it as a drive to easily drag & drop files to and fro. Should I expect anything like that from this script or no?

You're the best! Now for the black&white... lol
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
Nope.. it doesnt remove the mtp like the rom did so plugging it in a pc should work out the box
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] renthispace:
Thanks for making this elliwigy. Is there a way to edit what is deleted? I tried changing the updater-script but when I went to flash it said something about the binary not working.

I wanted to leave the google stuff (I know I could re-download it but I figured why not leave it) and I really wanted to keep the emergency alert stuff (cmas). I figure the emergency alert is good to have, in case of an emergency :)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
All you really would need to do is from a pc open the zip using 7zip and then go to the updater script, right click and press edit.. remove the line you want to keep then go to file and save.. it will ask you again to save in zip and say yes.. it should work.. ive had issues trying to edit updater scripts on the phone if thats what u tried
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] renthispace:
Thanks for the 7zip tip. I previously extracted the zip, edited the script, and then remade the zip. Something didn't work right, but the method you mentioned did. Thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TechX1991:
was hoping there would be a list of removed apps for the "perfect debloat" eventually. thanks for the post up. This helps with rom creation as well

Although, does this cause the issue I was having with Extreme Syndicate about not having the multi tasking work at all? softbuttons and hardware bring up no multi tasking for me
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
yea.. edit the zip and exclude the multiwindowtrayservice from the updater script or simply add it back to rom if u use it..

not really an issue since i do not use multiwindow at all as do a lot of people i consider it bloat lol
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TechX1991:
cool wasnt sure the apk because id tried adding it back once and it didnt fix it lol

also if you want to go to the max :P there's about 20 more lib files you can remove that equal out to around 70 megs. i'll try to get a list together
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
thanks!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Mikefey:
Probably a dumb question...

i have never flashed a script before and i cant find how to. do i use odin or Up+home+power recovery and how to i flash it. i have the purge script on a sd card in the phone.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jagrave:
Install instructions say install through recovery, which for us would be safe strap. I don't think we can do much through the stock recovery.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Mikefey:
thanks

Thank you.

So I installed it from safestrap and ran it. But it only deleted a few things like the boot noises. All the Verizon bloat is still installed and most other apps the script was supposed to delete. Help?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] renthispace:
Fyi deleting lowbattery.ogg made my phone go into a loop of playing the default ringtone for verizon phones (why a ringtone?). This only stopped with a reboot. I have since replaced the lowbattery.ogg file to see if this fixes it. Im on ecliplse 1.0.2
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
what rom are you on? i tested on a stock rom and it works.. are you using a rom slot and what rom are you on?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
it works mainly on stock roms.. i think i posted in op it might not work on roms like eclipse since its heavily modified
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Mikefey:
i am on stock ROM.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Mikefey:
figured

I figured it out. I had updated apps so it didn't clear them. Still didn't clear vzw NFL mobile, Vzw protect, or Google play movies and tv.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TechX1991:
some stuff gets downloaded by google play after you connect to google play for the first time.

NFL doesn't get added to my phone as a default, but if i connect up to the play store after a fresh flashing, it downloads itself.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
yea.. why i said its best to do a clean install, boot device then straight to ss and flash so doesnt have a way to update or install apks..

theres an option in google setup to backup/restore apks to your device so best to not select that..

Also, i never allow play store to auto update anything. i like to update manually ;)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TechX1991:
That's how I am. just let me pick what updates and what doesn't.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] disco1224:
Yea, sometimes updates are for the worse...

Thanks elli for script I'll check it out even though I build my own roms, I'm always interested in debloaters.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] sirmookie:
Perfect! A fantastic addition to my Optimal ROM. Thanks so much!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dan0326:
What is DSMLawmo.apk and can it be added to the purge?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
not sure what it is but it is safe to remove! I will add it when I have the next update
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dmcfee:
Anyone have an issue with WiFi Hotspot after this debloat? I receive an error message that settings has stopped working.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
what rom are you on? it doesnt remove anything related to settings or the hotspot at all so it could be rom related
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dmcfee:
Thanks for the reply, I apologize I know better than to be that vague!

Purge is awesome!

I am using clean install of stock with OTA updates to 4.4.4 - rooted with Towel Root

If Purge doesn't remove anything that would affect this then I probably need to start over.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
do you have tethering included in your plan? If not then you wont have it on stock youd need a stock rooted rom for it to work (meaning a custom rom not from an OTA.) What error does it give exactly?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dmcfee:
Yes it is included in my plan and did work prior to this. When I attempt to start the mobile hot spot the error is "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped."
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
hm strange. I have heard of 0 reports of a settings fc when using the hotspot.. theres a list in op of everything removed and nothing would effect hotspot or settings.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] ZeroSilence:
HUGE thanks for this. Now I can purge all that nonsense off my device.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] dmcfee:
After a do over the issue is resolved. Something must have went awry during my intial process.

Thanks for the help!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] M3ntalPurg3:
So then if I'm on Ricks Rom 20- NK2, I shouldn't have any issues with this? ...I don't need to start fresh on my Rom right? (Fresh Install)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
nope.. it works on any 4.4.x rom
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Zixx:
just making sure here.

This will work on NK7 right?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
if the apks are the same place and name yes.. all it does is look for the files and removes them if theyre there.. if not it will do nothing so it most likely will work on any 4.4.x rom, if not it will not hurt it
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] JOLiu:
[MENTION=3812611]elliwigy[/MENTION],

If I want to use UPSM, what apks should not be deleted?

I am currently on Rick's Rom v. 20.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] renthispace:
Any plan on making this work with L?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
ot shouldnt be hard.. ill give it a go this weekend if i have time.. essentially might just involve deleting the .apk extensions and changing name on a few things

Extreme Syndicate v5
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] redman321:
This would be amazing i have been looking for a Verizon GS5 android L debloat for a while.

Thanks in advance!

P.S. I like your work you seem to do a lot of good things around here for the Samsung community. much appreciation
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] purplepenguin:
was just going to sarcastically ask - when's the 5.0 release - but you both beat me to it! you're awesome elliwigy! (speaking as someone who just flashed the new OptimalRom and nearly broke it trying to debloat with titanium backup)
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] fukenbiker:
I'm still in SafeStrap after running the zip it reads:

Let the PURGE begin!

Deleting Sounds

Deleting Apps

Deleting Priv-Apps

Deleting Lib Files

Deleting Other Files

Finished the PURGE

Enjoy the EXTREMELY Debloated ROM!

Hit Thanks and Consider a Donation!

Updating partition details...

E: Unable to mount '/data'

E: Unable to mount '/system'

And underneath in green letters below the dos text box it says:

Successful.

**********************

I'm glad to see the Google Maps and Street View still working. Following directions is important. I have Optimal ROM in a slot and used SafeStrap to flash your 'DeBloat' ZIP. Like previously mentioned, it was very quick. So I thought I'd present what you see once you flash, above.

***********************

Holy smokes this thing is great! No more going through Titanium Backup and freezing 90 some odd applications! I will now proceed to provide you a donation like I did for the towelroot guys.

DUDE! You have only two pages in your App Drawer! The 3rd page is the stuff YOU downloaded. I 'KNOW' (use Fluffy's voice there)

I'm not in need of a 'lollipop' thanks, I don't have to go there when I can use SafeStrap to switch between stock and OR w/PURGE!

Looks like the OR in the ROM slot using PURGE is going to be my daily driver. Thanks again.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] elliwigy:
thanks for the positive feedback!

i think the mount errors pop up when using a rom slot..

i might make a purge zip for L in the future.. currently i have the vzw s6 edge so first im working on stabilizing my ectreme syndicate rom for this device.. usually the purge comes later since i like to have people try my rom.. if not they will just use stock and debloat with the zip..

I would have to dl the stock L build for the s5 to ensure tge debloat zip would ve compatible when I do make it.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] fukenbiker:
The 'mount' errors don't mean anything to an old lineman/biker. The ZIP you gave us worked. The PayPal link to buy you a beer didn't however, and I think that's what's important at this point.

Fix that stuff so I can buy you a beer.

---------- Post added at 03:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:59 AM ----------

Heads up! Just so you know, if you're hellbent on 'Lollipop', your safestrap won't work unless you always have a computer to use, so you can switch ROMs. You have to flash kernels and stuff with Odin in order to change your ROM.

I wouldn't taste any lollipop, among locked bootloader users like Verizon and AT&T, and my goodness if there was any of the other service providers able to give me a signal up in the woods where I am, I would switch in a heartbeat... just to get away from a stinking locked bootloader. I miss CyanogenMod 'sooo....' much!

UPDATE

adrenalinetaco used your work, and others, to make a batch file.

http://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general/batch-file-lollipop-bloatware-removal-t3117636

I have since let go of always having SafeStrap on boot, and I have been running OptimalROM R13-1 by BigBot96 for over a month, and I love it. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2796260

After I learned the best way to set it up, my battery life is amazing.

I do a full wipe fresh install of the ROM, and then skip everything at first boot, especially avoiding the Google account setup. Then after using ADB to sideload the debloat zip, I go ahead and set up the phone.

My Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5 model SM-G900V had horrible battery life right out of the box, and now it's the most amazing battery life I've ever enjoyed in a handset. My phone does not know it even 'has' a 'heart-rate monitor'!

Thanks Elliwigy for all your contributions. I'm happy.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jjane45:
Another happy user here. Just. cannot. live. with. bloatware.

Followed fukenbiker's recommendation from the optimal ROM thread. Thank you again for your hard work elliwigy!!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] fukenbiker:
My stepson has the latest Iphone. I showed him my "about phone", the battery usage page, when he saw it, after spending the weekend up at the place, he was blown away, because I didn't just let the phone sit. He watched a 3.5 hour documentary with me, on it, and I had unplugged it the previous morning.

Amazing battery life.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ly1:
Hello all,

I used search, but I didn't find any similar thread.

I have S4, and precision barometer (it was calibrated after month in Uppsala (city in Sweden) national laboratory.

My barometer basic accuracy is ± 0.5 hPa (Barometer was made in 2005).

S4 has Bosch Sensortec BMP180 pressure sensor (this information I found on internet).

Bosch Sensortec BMP180 pressure sensor has accuracy pressure: 950 ... 1050 hPa ±0.12 hPa

@ 25 °C ±1.0 m

The problem: my calibrated barometer shows me 990.0 hPa and my S4 shows 987.20 hPa

The S4 shows less 3 hPa.

How I can calibrate it?

(After 2 years I have S3 ant it shows me pressure perfectly).

I tried combination in dial menu: *#0*# then I go to the Sensor window. In the graph Barometer sensor I have a white field: "Sea level pressure" And button "Enter pressure".

I entered pressure. But barometer shows not this value what I want.

Second time I go to sensor testing, in graph barometer, but I don't find field: "Sea level pressure" And button "Enter pressure" any more. They disappear. I tried to flesh my phone, but I didn't find field: "Sea level pressure" And button "Enter pressure" any more. I uploaded some pictures.

I was with this question in the Samsung mobile phones service, but they can't helped me.

Does anyone know how I can to calibrate my S4 barometer?

Better barometer accuracy means better accuracy of GPS.

I will donate if I found answer there, or somebody will help to insure this problem.

And sorry for my bad English.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AntaresOne:
Hello,

Use this app, on barometer tab press menu button (device's button on the left) and choose "Barometer calibration"

Here you can set offsets. It's the best app I found till now, I always use it
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ly1:
Hello,

yes, I know all apps with "Barometer calibration" function.

Its interesting why barometer lies in the diagnostic menu.

In the factory they shod calibrated barometer.

Maybe some people knows how to calibrate like in factor
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ly1:
Any Ideas?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geevh:
Sorry, I have no solution.

But does barometer help for GPS? All it can do is help to determine height and that is not accurate as it depends on the weather.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Amrch787:
Yeah, mine is totally inaccurate too. Moreover, it's exactly 100mm hg lower than it should be. I believe it's some kind of malfunction with the chip rather than factory calibration.

Not necessarily free, they would charge you monthly installments. It would be free when you leave the store, so be grateful. Lol

Another note, one of the store I went to was allowing me to choose unlimited accessories as long as the total added up to $100. I'd get $50 dollars back through my next bill.

HI,

I bought a S18 ZGPAX and I've been testing it, it works well but is not a smartwatch but a watchphone and does not connect to the smartphone through an application like his brother s28 ( is the hardware very different?).

The battery with some use withstands 35h, the sound despite having poor quality has power to have a conversation in places with little background noise.

I can´t set the MMS and GPRS and so has no net or receive photos despite the software allows it.

[HTC One V] jonas2790:
Try adb reboot recovery and don't forget to flash the stock kernel, because the cyanogenmod kernel isn't compatible.

If adb doesn't work, try to hold the power button until it turns off and then press volume down+power to boot into hboot.

Thanks!

Can you write me an step for step list for this?

Just boot into recovery, do a full wipe and flash the stock rom, then boot into hboot and flash the stock kernel with fastboot flash boot boot.img

htc one m7

version no. : 3.62.401.1

i was in the process of locking up my bootloader and flashing a stock rom to return to factory settings when something went wrong and i got stuck in between where all i see is the htc logo.

my phone was plugged in but on unplugging it would go back to the fastboot menu where i would encounter just the tampered and relocked statement. I CANNOT find the FASTBOOT option or for that matter any of the other options such as RECOVERY or REBOOT, that previously used to be there. I dont think i have a ROM anymore.

All that is there are the letters RUU..

this is where i got the ROM from : http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_3-62-401-1-zip/

aaand this is the only other thread having a similar problem with the same ROM : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2678932

P.S. I also do not have TWRP because im fairly new at the whole rooting and unrooting process and was completely oblivious to the whole custom recovery process....seeing as how using TWRP is literally the only way to fix things on a bricked phone.

Advice on what to do next would be greatly appreciated!( I really dont mind giving it to service center if that would help get my phone back)
