[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] AsItLies:
Well you could say I've gotten a bit carried away ;)

This is kind of a new discovery for me, research shows there's a specific command / options that show packages installed also; " adb shell pm list packages" with it's options.

If you run linux, you can pipe the output to grep, and then have a much shorter list to find what you're looking for, like 'google' or 'amazon' etc.

My device now has only 36 apps installed. A handful of those are ones I always install from the playstore, like keep and velis auto brightness etc.

This is a major thing for people like myself. I'm a die hard minimalist, but if I can't install an aftermarket rom, or don't want to void the warranty, this is a fantastic option, best possible I think.

And wow does my G6 seem so much faster! Woohoo!! :)

How about com.lge.maagent? Can i disable this one?
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] KingFatty:
Any chance you could share your Oreo-updated list of which apps were safe to disable?

Also FYI for those of us using Windows and not Linux, to obtain a text file of the list of the output of this command above to show all the packages, just issue the above ADB command except add on the following (without the quotes, remove those quotes):

" > filename.txt"

where filename.txt is the name of whatever filename you want to dump the output into.

I'm currently trying to debloat my LG G6 running Oreo stock/locked under sprint, so I've obtained the text list and I'm just editing that text file so I can save as a batch file and execute as a script by inserting this command before each of the lines in the text file: "adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 " [and then you have the com.android blah blah name of the package you want to disable]

I'm worried I'll include something newly listed in Oreo that shouldn't be removed, so hoping for your guidance since you survived gutting your Oreo LG G6
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] AsItLies:
I don't really have a list, just used what was mentioned in this thread and added a few things here and there that I didn't want. If not sure of something (lg, google, etc), just google it, something usually turns up with a good indication of what it's for.

Also, follow jostian's post above, use solid explorer if you need to reinstall something. It's free (Solid) for a few days and then just a few bucks to register it. It's helped me a few times.

Cheers, Happy Holidays
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] KingFatty:
Here is the current list of packages installed on a factory-reset Sprint LG G6 running Oreo/Android 8.0.

FYI I just did a factory reset from the OS, then rebooted into recovery mode to wipe cache and data/factory reset again, and then initialized the phone by turning on, connecting to wifi and logging in to my Google account. All this bloatware was automatically downloaded after leaving the phone alone, without installing any of my own apps (When Google prompted me, I declined to install my previous Google Play apps, and instead selected "fresh install").

I plan to cross-reference this recent list against the older lists from this thread to see if I can take off some of these.

Here is the raw list on the fresh phone as of 12-24-2018, freshly factory reset LG G6 Oreo, Sprint version (LS993):
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] lorikeet:
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.lge.lgdrm.permission

Isn't the DRM required for Netflix or other services that check for it?

Is it safe to remove com.lge.qlens and com.lge.ellieservice ? They both have to do with AI Lens and QLens, but do they break camera if I just remove those? I never use AI Lens or QLens.
[LG G6 Guides, News, & Discussion] AsItLies:
Not sure anyone will have that answer...

but just go ahead and uninstall them, try it.

If it's a problem, use this to reinstall (pretty easy)

adb shell cmd package install-existing package.name.goes.here

That's an extremely useful command, thank you! I wasn't aware of it at all, first time I see it mentioned!

I wonder if we have to factory reset when the Pie OTA comes, to avoid bricking or other problems caused by uninstalling system packages.

Did anyone try upgrading to Oreo by OTA last year with a debloated G6, and was it successful?

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] legendr34:
Hey everyone, any help will be apprecaite:

I have a Sprint Note 5 that goes into a boot loop, when I push the Vol. down and home button, it will goto a blue screen "installing system update" and then "no command" and eventually it will go into the Android Recovery screen. I can't do anything on this screen because the power button is broken.

If I push the vol down and home button during the "installing system update" it will go to the warning screen to install a custom OS. The options are Vol. up for Continue, Vol. down for Cancel and Home for Show Barcode. The Vol. up and home buttons do nothing. Pressing Vol. down will restart the phone and proceed to boot loop again. If I was able to continue I can probably reflash using Odin, but it won't.

Does anyone know a way to fix this? thanks!!

[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] rafeeq47:
Hi,

I am trying to install twrp recovery on my Honor 5C using fastboot method. The Bootloader was successfully unlocked a couple of weeks back. Today got the twrp from the official site. The twrp flashing process is successful every time without any errors but when I reboot to recovery I am getting the stock recovery and not twrp.

Tried all three versions available on the official twrp website:

twrp-3.0.2-0-nemo.img

twrp-3.1.0-0-nemo.img

twrp-3.1.1-0-nemo.img

Tried 3-4 times with the same result. Phone's running on Nougat.

Honor 5C (India)

Stock ROM: NEM-L22C675B330

Android Version: Nougat

Any suggestions or ideas would be helpful.

Thank you.
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] fishnchips2:
Hi, for nougat on honor 5c you need a special openkirin version of twrp. Also, are you sure that you're using the right keys in the right way? I had a lot of trouble because I got that wrong.

---------- Post added at 10:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 AM ----------

The openkirin recovery is in the file depot on the roms page.
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] rafeeq47:
I had no idea about the openkirin version until now. Thanks.

And yes, I am using the right key combinations to get to the recovery because I'm able to boot into Stock Recovery.

Your help is appreciated. Will go check out the openkirin twrp.
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] fishnchips2:
There's an e-recovery that looks similar and boots via a similar key combination but I'm sure you're right.
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] rafeeq47:
Wow! I flashed the openkirin twrp and it went successfully. I'm able to boot to twrp recovery now.

And yes, the e-recovery is where I was ending up previously when I tried to flash the normal twrp. It was simply not working. After installing the openkirin version the stock e-recovery is now replaced by twrp. Both use the same key combinations.

Thanks again [MENTION=8416937]fishnchips2[/MENTION] !! Really appreciate your help !

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Whatttt:
I've tried many ways on YouTube none have worked. I found out a way to get on the Android launcher but when I try to factory reset it doesn't let me.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] wallor77:
Generic solution to frp is to access browser no matter which one. Except for samsung phones and not all of them but a few. Accessing browser you need to download two apps. One is quickshortcutmaker and second is to download old google manager for log in but it need to be web log in. There is ton of videos out there. The reason you want web log in is so you can add additional account to that device. The rest is history.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Whatttt:
What is web log in?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] troy5890:
Man I've had this problem before when I was on B20 Stock. I just waited 48 hours and the FRP cleared up.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Whatttt:
It's been 3 days...
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] wallor77:
I know about this one. Some Samsung phones have issues with this when u change password. It takes forever. U need to access share button in beginning of verification. Share button either name share or 3 dots or 2 dots connected. Try every single app choice u get. Apps itself is not the reason but web browser is. There are some apps which lets you share further. And there you will find browser icon. Try weshare!!!!!!

I never tried this on Axon 7 but i assume its similar to Lenovo A series with their own copy whole phone type of app. It lets you enter browser in that app. I assume that weshare is behaving in same matter.

The order is like this

You have google log in screen. Either you try there on log in or you try while accessing wifi. There is always some hyperlinks there like help, feedback, policy, security etc etc. When ever there is hyperlink then there is couple of options. Then you need to access copy paste by holding marked letters to access share or open in browser etc etc. From there is easy if you can access web browser. Follow youtube for rest.

The only time screw up messes "everything" and there is "nothing " you can do then wait is when you delete iphone from your own icloud so you dont have icloud on actuall device and then want to change password on pc while two step verification is active. That is a nightmare. It cant take up to a month before apple makes it done.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Whatttt:
Actually no it hasn't been 3 days I remembered I reseted my device from powering it off when I was trying to fix it so that would mean that the time would reset meaning I have to wait 2 days more to see if it will disappear. How long ago was this for you?

Hey don't know if you have seen this but I would try to use this app. I haven't had to FRP unlock a Axon7, but I have had a bit of experience in taking FRP off of phones along with many other fixes. If you can get to chrome or whatever browser and download and install this then it should work. I have used this on a ZTE ZMax Pro, so I would imagine it would work here unless they patched it. Anyway, good luck and let me know if you need more help.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] JTruj1ll0923:
Hmm... Well as I have not needed to FRP reset my Axon I can't really tell you exactly what to do. All I know is that method works on some and not others. Really what you are trying to do, especially if you can use the web login like someone else mentioned, is add a Google account that you remember how to login too. Then when you factory reset you should be good. If that doesn't work I say either try to reset the password or whatever Google account is on there, or maybe EDL mode programs which I haven't done much with. I'll keep looking for another way.

Edit: btw the web login you can try to use would be with the com.rootjunky.frpbypass-1.0.apk 1.17MB on the same site I last linked. That along with maybe one of the other Google account managers that are listed there. Good luck!

Dear Mr zimone

Thank you for contacting HTC Europe support,

Regarding your query, you will need to do hard reset. It will set the phone to factory default settings, start-settings-system-delete memory. After this please check if the problem has been fix, if it is still there you may need to send it to a repair centre.?

Ecco la risposta che mi hanno dato dall'assistenza HTC, consigliano di fare un hard reset. :confused:

I have tried having activated usb debugging:

- Rootkhp Pro 1.9

- Kingoroot

- Kingroot

- Sp flash tool but couldn't find the proper rootkit

I could find many rootkits, but unfortunately for other kinds of Crosscall Trekkers:(

Android 6.0.1

Hardware version: V1.00

Kernel 3.10.49

If someone could help me, would be wonderfull:)
[Crosscall Smartphones] Brazyxs:
Hi Bfreenoe. I just rooted my Crosscall Trekker M1 with Kingoroot. (I like those phones but they have too many little ****ty google apps that you can only remove with a root)

I used the official Kingo Root app that I installed on my phone.

Download on your computer or directly on your phone the Android's version of Kingo Root

Here's the link of the official website:

kingoapp.com

Then you just have to put the apk somewhere on your phone where you can find it easily.

Make sure you've got enough battery (They say 70% but I was at 60% when I did it)

And you'll need an internet connection of course.

I hope it'll work for you

- replace 'irootsu' with Supersu, Superuser or Magisk.. Staying with these chinese app omnipotent in my system doesn't really make me feel that my phone is safe and sound..

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
If safe mode is able to disable Avast! anyway, possible it won't being a security software but worth a try:

Turn on and use safe mode

Safe mode allows you to turn on the device with third-party apps disabled. Then you can easily unistall apps that may be causing a conflict or software problem.

Turn the device off.

Press and hold the Power key past the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge screen.

When "SAMSUNG" appears on the screen, release the Power key.

Immediately after releasing the Power key, press and hold the Volume down key.

Continue to hold the Volume down key until the device finishes restarting.

Safe mode will display in the bottom left corner of the screen.

Release the Volume down key when you see Safe Mode.

Uninstall apps that are causing a problem.

Turn off safe mode

Press and hold the Power key.

Tap Restart.

Otherwise boot into recovery (Volume Up & Home & Power) and factory reset (Will wipe everything from the phone)

What I do know is that you must never flash a complete firmware or bootloader from any other variant.

Only H918 firmware for H918.

But if you can use system partition from another, IDK. Presumably there would be some problems with this, considering the developers make separate versions and your own failure.
