Hello,

I've debloated a Samsung SM-A320FL for work, so I though I should share my method with you.

It needs no special knowlegde, no root so you won't loose any warranty or so.

1 - First of all, you need to install ADB on your PC (You can find how to do it here).

2 - Then activate developper options on the phone. Go to:

Parameters/about phone/software informations

and tap 7 times on "build version"

3 - Still on the phone, go back to parameters and to "developper options". Activate "USB debogging mode"

4 - Plug the phone to the PC and athorize the connection

5 - Launch the adb console as administrator and type "adb shell"

6 - Paste the content of the file linked to this post and press enter

Your A3 has now only those apps:

- My files

- Play Store

- Phone

- Messages

- Camera

- Gallery

- Clock

- Contacts

- Parameters

- Calculator

Off course you can now desactivate "USB debogging mode" and "developper mode", so your phone seem to be factory done like that by Samsung.

Can I do this on Linux?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Guides, News, & D] ImAnnoying:
Yes, you can. Just install ADB.

Hello,

does the phone needs to be in download mode?

Thank you sir, works like a charm on the official firmware.

Hello, seem's working but i have again apps on phone. In application list, i see them again with "not installed" mentionned.

How can i delete them definitively to gain space.

kagazushi, are you french ? i see SFR apps :)

Best regards.

adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 <package_to_disable>

For some reason, the disable-user command lets you disable basically any application you want while the regular disable command is quite limited.

Hi

do you still have voLTE once all these stuffs are gone ?

Thanks a lot for this debloater !

(edit : it's ok, I still have voWIFI & voLTE after debloating)
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Guides, News, & D] knopper84:
so does this still work on the latest firmware? Is it really safe?
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Guides, News, & D] fidelius-dc:
Thanks, saved my device from the ever overloaded internal memory. As it's for personal use I kept (or rather reinstalled) email, calendar, photoretouching, smartmirroring, google drive (aka .docs) and google maps (some may want to keep videos and youtube too).

I only have one issue so far:

gallery app crashes when i want to check image details and under albums it only shows me camera roll, but none from other folders.

despite reinstalling smartmirroring, the screen-mirroring icon disappeared from the slide-down menu [stupid me had installed mirrorlink instead of smartmirroring]

It would be great, if someone could tell what dependencies the gallery app has to access file info and to create these folder albums. So i can reinstall the needed stuff. My phone feels so much snappier now and i certainly won't go back to reinstall all of them just to get that Samsung gallery and screen mirroring to work properly. Thanks again to the OP.
[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Guides, News, & D] fidelius-dc:
yes, did it yesterday on a completely updated phone. It just didn't remove samsung pay and linkedin bloatware on my device - not a big issue.

Can we load the cc9e's rom to Mi A3? I like miui.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] [GS]:
No
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Questions & Answers] evanB70:
I hate MIUI. That's why I picked the A3 instead of CC9e. A3 doesn't have MIUI's useless ads & hyper aggressive ram management. So it's a very stable & smooth experience :)

But I have to admit, MIUI has much better implementation of quick settings & gesture system compared to stock android 9. But those 2 things are easy to fix with free apps from Play store.
[General Questions and Answers] keshavsainik:
Hi People,

I have been using Tenor E for over a year and a half now. I have been completely happy with the phone until I had the second Oreo update

sometime in February 2019. Since then, when I turn the silent mode on and switch it off, the ringer doesn't work. The volume is set to full,

DND is not neither on nor does it have a rule for switching on automatically. I miss a lot of calls and messages due to this.

The only solution I have is to restart my device, then the ringer will work. That is a difficult thing too, since I have to switch to silent mode and

back quite frequently on a daily basis. I had sent the phone for service after a factory reset, and all they did was to update it once again and send

it back to me.

Can someone give a solution for this issue?

Thanks!!!

[Nokia 5 Questions & Answers] Kickasscorm:
Hi all,

My partner's phone - Got an interesting problem with the SD card. I bought an SD card, 64GB and put it in. It formatted fine and even offered to move the stuff off the phone and onto the card. Happy days. The problem now is, when I delete a file from the phone, it doesn't delete just from the phone, but both phone and SD card... lol. O...k. lol.

So I then sent a test file, a random video to myself from my partner's phone to my phone over WhatsApp then took the SD card out of my partner's phone and tried to delete it from her internal storage. It said the file couldn't be deleted because it was stored on the SD card.... yet, taking up space on the phone. So it was like having a dead body, no life, but taking up the room, on the internal storage, but when the SD card was put back, all "bodies" danced back to life again, making the video work as it once did. So it thinks they're saved on the SD card, and are, yet can't be removed from the phone and still taking space. In effect, it copied them but won't let the files leave the phone. So it was a weird mutation copy merge from internal to external storage. Sigh :eek:

So, I think I have to buy a new charger (current one charges but doesn't connect the phone to the pc) and manually cut from phone files and paste into sd card files, unless anyone has a better plan or actual way to fix this?

Thanks for your time,

Cormac
[Nokia 5 Questions & Answers] Kickasscorm:
update

Well this is most interesting............................

I went to the shop and bought a cable that worked. When I connected it to the computer, I was able to see ONLY SD card, no internal memory..... so now it looks like it has dissapeared.. and merged with the internal memory.... which means that it now doesn't allow us to put stuff into the SD card. However, It seems to think it has more space.. I am hopeful it can allow this. I had to delete an app to make room for Facebook messenger update. Despite having the SD card in the phone... I don't like this... I dunno what to do. Any help welcomed.

Thanks,

Cormac

If you want seperate storage you have to use your SD card as an external storage rather than using as an internal storage. & Why did you buy a cable? The charging cable can be used for transferring data.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
That was me who mentioned about the battery drain being slightly better on the mate 20X , it was in relation to my s10+.

The S10+ screen is smaller at 6.4", screen on time battery drain would be greater with a larger panel regardless of battery capacity as we all know. It's all relative.

My ideal goal is 0.9 - 0.4% per hour idle drain or less. Which I get on the Mate 20X , similar to my s10+. The mate 20X larger battery provides greater in between charges when device is in idle and screen off and a slightly better SOT time with screen on than my S10+.

As we all know battery drain % has nothing to do with battery capacity. Drain is drain, regardless. I use GSAM and Accubattery Pro on all my devices to measure SOT and idle drain amongst other things. One other important point is that battery drain on same given device can be completely different to someone elses same device. There are many variables that come into play in regards to battery drain. Hence why there are users of s10+ devices that complain their battery drains faster whereby others post 10 hours plus screen on time. The S10 plus is a mere example, change the device name and it's the same scenario on other device forums on XDA.

As for YouTube reviews for phones in general, I've came to find out a while ago that most are fake. YouTube influencers are given the device for free for favourable reviews.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] deloj:
Thats fine I dont expect anyone to know more than anyone else. There are no absolutes here just relative critiques.

What would I or samsung gain from a phone made for the asian market if I were a secret samsung agent based in USA on an english-based website? The samsung a70 is the only phone at my disposal with which to compare the mate 20x.

Did you actually read or just scan through the battery paragraph? I specifically explained how I set up my phone. Battery life again compared to the a70 leaves much to be desired. Why it went from 100% to 96% in 3 hours with everything turned off is completely inexcusable. As for the black guy in youtube, we dont know how HE set up his phone. Keep in mind that the mate 20x mustve been his 1st 5000 mah battery phone which came out last year at the time of his review when very few phones within that same period had the same mah capacity. This is why you cant judge a phone without comparing it to other phones. I actually tested the phone with the a70 on several occasions, being careful to take notes of observed changes in battery. Just to let you know, two phones from different companies with the same battery capacity will ALWAYS perform differently in terms of battery. This is irrefutable fact.

I cant qualify your response as to the UI since you prefer a 1971 chevy when we're driving 2018 ferraris. What I can comment on is that I think the L29 version can install launchers. But I'm not 100% sure on that so dont quote me for assurance.

Yeah it looks like this is the only phone you may have owned. Not sure but thats what it sounds like to me. Reviewers have also entered the same judgement as to its resolution.

Never said it wasnt a solid phone. Its just not a perfectly solid 10 out of 10. Its plagued with issues serious companies arent foolish enough to make which should have been ironed out before huawei released it. Premium should be premium especially at premium price, no excuses.

Chinese phone makers are not in the habit of being keen on quality control and are slow to correct mistakes. They think they can just slap together a phone with high end specs through cheap labor as their corp revenue goal, throw it in the consumer's face like a doggy treat and expect them to bite. Thats not how you make customers happy. You keep them satisfied through constant and consistent quality control which the chinese have historically lacked for a long time in their product cycles. But admittingly they are getting better at it; in that sense I give them credit where credit is due. But china is still no korea at least not yet. The mate 20x issues are to the mate 20x what chinese companies are to customers. If china would have made a strong effort to make phones amazing in all respects they could have single-handedly put a major dent in apple, lg and samsung by now.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] deloj:
Oh yes I remember now, it was you. Appreciate that info you confirmed. However I mistakenly said it was your s9 when it was actually your s10+. I stand corrected.

Thats exactly what I surmised in my review. Battery capacity means nothing. It doesnt matter how big a battery is; its how efficiently the phone utilizes the voltage and how the software is able to tie in everything together, hardware and software wise.

Yes you are correct. It is very unfortunate that we still cant get unfiltered honest reviews despite the "free" internet environment.
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] s327374:
Isn't it strange that we have experiences with the phone, and yet we are both ultimately unhappy with the outcome. I am frustrated, you are disappointed.

We are like the odd couple of Huawei owners.

:o

Except, you know, we aren't really a couple...
[Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion] deloj:
I'm both frustrated and disappointed. Honestly I wanted to make the mate 20x my main driver that I planned to replace my a70. But huawei decided for me to keep my a70.

The honor 8x max is a good big screened phone. But problems with installed google services like the playstore keep me from considering buying it.

Looks like I'll stick to my a70 until I see a better contender with a bigger screen, hopefully one with no issues that would otherwise prompt me to open a thread to complain about.

Wouldnt say we're the 'odd couple' since we're both not as frustrated with each other as with that one thing bothering us, the mate 20x. We're more like Frasier and Niles.

Pretty sure the "Oh-So Orange" is targeted at/for the LGBTQ community. By no means is that meant to be offensive to anyone, truth is, just need a little flamboyant color in the lineup, simple as that. Big business models have to be all inclusive in their marketing in today's world, otherwise you set yourself up for a social media hunting expedition. Especially big tech companies like Google who play such a big role in the social construct of today's online/connected world.

I know some folks actually like the color orange, but even if you like the color, not sure having an orange creamsicle stuck to your dome sounds very enticing to most.

Oh, and the irony during the presentation yesterday when discussing renewable energy and product manufacturing, they announce another upgraded, better Google Home Mini...WTF should I do with the 4 I currently own?

[Google Pixel 4 XL Questions & Answers] ZeroKool76:
Well, that's definitely an interesting perspective, LOL. I can assure you though, I am fully 100% heterosexual and I chose the orange, for exactly that reason, to stand out. Tired of having the same old black and/or white device, that's so damn boring. And I don't want to spend extra money on a skin if I can get the device a color I would prefer. of course that's not to say that orange is necessarily my preferred color, but it is the only color they have that stands out. Not to mention, you can buy the orange and cover it up. but you won't always be able to buy the orange. So, you may be better off buying it now, covering it up and then down the road uncovering it when you fancy it.
