Done [MENTION=259458]fable[/MENTION]tron, everything working ok, thanks. Only problenm is I can't log in into samsung pass (Maybe the only Samsung feature I actually use). Any clue on which service do I need to re-enable?
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] petes12:
Enable the ones listed below samsung pass...
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] Zoibberg:
Those were already enabled. Message is like it couldn't connect or ask for samsung account.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] Zoibberg:
In case someone else is willing to use samsung pass, I had to enable :

.\adb shell pm enable com.samsung.android.mobileservice

After that, I could log to my samsung account and then use it.

PS: It needs to be kept enabled, otherwise samsung pass logs out as soon as is disbabled.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] fablebreton:
thanks for feedback , i have moved this package in "samsung pass" section

Any pointers are greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] fablebreton:
1) it won't remove anything, just disable

2) "More than one device" : type "adb devices" and see

3) you seems to have an issue on your computer with adb, be sure to use official one

4) better to use powershell with adb , it handle better copy-past several adb command

5) the error say you "unknown package" this mean you don't have this package on your region firmware so just go to next line.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] vibranze:
Thank you. Since they're disabled, the apps won't be in app list right?

I will try it again with an official ADB or from other computer.

whats this dual messenger for?
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] CiaronDarcOne:
If you want to sign into two whatsapp, telegram etc. accounts it allows you to create a duplicate apk as these apps won't give you the option to have two accounts running side by side natively - particularly useful if I you have a dual sim and have different accounts for work/social. Kind of useless otherwise. Was surprised that it was using so much ram/battery when it wasn't even being utilised.

Hi OP,

Can you please explain me how you did to change csc to Indian since I'm a bit disappointed with the pace of Samsung updates in my region.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] fablebreton:
Uninstall would break ota, disabling is enought most of time

Download the last indian firmware

Download Odin . I have uploaded the Odin version i have used on my afh : https://androidfilehost.com/?w=profile&uid=529152257862699209

Unzip the downloaded indian firmware

On a computer install Odin 3.13.3 and Samsung Smart Switch

on smartphone ( probably some useless steps here, but I preferred to take no risk) :

- remove any lockscreen

- remove google account

- factory reset

- remove sim card and SD card.

- boot download mode ( Voulume UP + Power )

With Odin : Open Odin and Select BL, AP, CP, CSC files from the extracted firmware folder. Don't use HOME_CSC_XXXX. Just use the CSC_XXX file as you need to change the CSC.

reboot without simcard , do first setup

turn off and reboot with simcard
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ultiweap:
Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Did some working in the meantime and found it. I succeeded with it this morning but my error (which I thought was) that I did not remove the sim card (realised it when rebooting for the first time) but even that I am on INS.

Thanks for your help.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] nonamesry:
Thanks! I did it on my A30 it worked i think. Didn't tested battery etc yet. But most of commands worked as well. So. After command i closed powershell and rebooted my phone. Is it okay? What if apps that i disabled, will auto enable itselfs? How do i know that?
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] fablebreton:
without root nothing to do for the 2 or 3 apps that can be auto re enabled. Trying to uninstall them would break OTA. you can check that in running process

So the best to do is just to forget them, they are not really "bloatware" anyway, rather some samsung features that most of people never use.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] nonamesry:
Okay thanks. But i have a question/problem. I can't play Age of Magic and Raid shadow legends with wifi. Is it because that proccess or something wrong with my wifi ? I can play other online games with wifi but age of magic always keep giving error about server if i try to connect with wifi. Did we just disabled spmwring about wifi or something like that?
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] fablebreton:

Which of these can you safely uninstall instead of disabling?

Thank you very much for this comprehensive guide.

I have the following questions:

1. Which of the applications in your list can I safely uninstall instead of disabling, while still receiving OTA?

2. Does disabling remove these applicaition icons from the app drawer?

3. Uninstalling these applications only uninstalls them for user 0, in that case do they appear in the app drawer?

Many Thanks, once again.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Guides, News, & Discussion] L3R0N:
First off, do not quote the OP, it's annoying. Then to answer your questions.

1. Uninstalling apps just removes them for the current user. In This case User 0.

2. Yes disabling them removed the icon from the app drawer.

3. Uninstalling them removes them from the app drawer but does not affect OTA.

Regards,

L3R0N

Hi OP,

Is there a list of what each package does?

I would like to understand what is being disabled, so I can determine impact to my typical usage.

I note you've identified the purpose of some packages in this thread, and I've found some of the apps on the Google Play Store, but many of the Samsung packages don't seem to have a good descriptions.

A point in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

No sorry, it would be too long for me, but you can google it , for instance : https://www.google.com/search?q=com...sh&aqs=chrome..69i57&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

You can also try to disable for instance 10 packages, use you smartphone one week, if no issue disable 10 next packages etc ... if issue re enable these packages , there is no risk.
