[Fire General] sd_shadow:
Note: While disabling/removing these apps seems to be safe, unforeseen consequences may be possible.

Now that we have a custom recovery, I suggest making a backup in Twrp, before deleting/freezing/Hiding apps

There are a few ways to stop bloatware from running

Non root

Adb Shell Pm Hide as much bloat and amazon as you can by k3ll0gs

Fire Setup Script (FSS) - Transform your 5.0.1 Fire tablet by tufkal

Root

Freeze: Titanium Backup with Pro Key, to Freeze the app (safest)

Rename, Move, or Delete: use a File Manager with root options (Root Browser) (should make a copy before deleting)

May need to reboot, before apps are removed from App Drawer

Using Titanium Backup with ProKey

Backup

I uploaded stock apps to Mega

App Locations

System apps can be found in

/system/priv-app

Each app is in it's own folder, the app will have the .apk file extension

If you rooted, you should Block system over the air updates.

If rooted devices gets a system update, the update can kill root access or (less likely brick the device).

Stock Launcher

Before you remove the Stock Launcher, be sure you have at least one other Launcher installed, or the devices will not work correctly.

If you want Google Now Launcher, I suggest installing a 2nd launcher as a backup, as Now launcher can be a little tricky getting it to Launch the first time.
