[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] gigawatt:
my way of debloat, do you guys think this will work?

Alright hear is what I do. I am totally blind, so I have to use twrp from command line open recovery script with adb shell.

First, I installed the stock rom and just skipped everything in setup.

Then, I turned off the phone and booted in to bootloader. Then, I did fastboot boot twrp.img.

Then I did adb shell.

Then, I wrote the following command.

mount /system

then I navigated to /system/system/app.

Then, I typed ls to list all of the app folders.

Then I used common sense to decide what to remove.

Then I navigated to /system/system/priv-app and repeated the same process typing ls to list the app directories.

Then I navigated to /system/system/reserve and typed ls to get all of the app folders there.

Then I came up with this list.

I was on slot b after I ran my debloat list command so I typed exit to exit the shell and then typed adb reboot bootloader.

Then I typed fastboot --set-active=_a.

Then, I typed fastboot boot twrp.img to get back in to twrp.

Then I typed adb shell and then I typed mount /system.

I repeated my debloat list and then typed exit to exit the shell.

Then, I typed adb reboot bootloader.

Then I typed fastboot --set-active=_b because that was the original slot I was on.

Do most of you think this will boot when I wipe data, cache, and dalvik? Please let me know what you think.

When my wife helped me wipe the data and dalvik and internal storage, we rebooted and all of the apps are still there, I removed them from slot a and b, makes no since at all unless the phone has a hidden directory to reinstall the apps because I just typed ls in the shell and they show gone. What the hell, never seen something like this.
