[Tasker Tips & Tricks] ktmom:
Let me start by saying that if you have zero experience with Tasker, please help yourself by working through some beginner tutorials found in excess online.

You will need to decide what type of profile should trigger the task containing the following actions. Maybe when specific apps are launched (video, music, ...). Or maybe you want them displayed always which means an "on boot" event. Or something else :)

This is straightforward using the built in "settings -> custom setting" action. If the device is not rooted, you will need to give write secure settings permissions to tasker through ADB.

Reference the "Using Shell Commands" section (scroll down pretty far) of How to Add Left/Right Keyboard Cursors to the Nav Bar during Text Input post.

It's very similar except instead of using the keycodes for left and right cursor movement (21, 22), we're using the keycodes for volume up and volume down (24,25).

We are also using volume up/down icons instead of left/right. The link to the website to get the icons is on that same page, in the same section. The links to the pages containing the 64x64 icons I used are: Volume Up and Volume Down.

And most importantly, instead of using a run shell command action, we're taking advantage of the relatively new custom setting action. As described above, you don't need a rooted device for this as long as you give the permissions through ADB.

I created a folder under the Tasker folder called "NavIcons" to hold icons for tasks like this. You may need to try different icon sizes to find a size that suits your device.

There is a nice summary of keycodes here.

Thanks for all !!

I understood how to and it work !

Many thx !!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Mine :)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
Thank you so much for this little piece of gold of a guide!

I will do this after receiving the stable build of Emui 10. Hopefully this happens in 2019 :)

One quick question: after removing any of the preinstalled apps do they automatically get reinstalled after the first security update? What about major updates like Emui 11?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
NO, they will get back after factory reset or if you manually reinstall any of it :)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
How much of an impact on your phone's battery life and performance does removing all the apps in your removal list has? I'm interested to know that if I remove all the preinstalled apps I will get a noticeable improvement in battery life.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
I don't know for sure, because i've done this removal every single phone i had right of the box, just after set up :). But you will have for sure better battery life because some of those apps can't be set on battery settings (ex. Chrome can't be stopped been used on background and some other apps) to stop using battery in backgroung or start once you restart your device. BUT be aware what you remove, make sure to check if you use any of them before removal.

For YouTube i recommend Youtube vanced (no ads and black interface) and for Messenger and Facebook (both without ads or any other unusefull stuffs) i recommend those apps from here ;)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
Already use Youtube vanced. How are the modded Facebook and Messenger apps? Are they lacking any features/options of the official versions? Do they have an OK design?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
They are the same, because they are the official ones, just mooded. You can see what is different reading from here List of mods (latest version):.

If you wanna try them, here are the links for latest:

Facebook app - https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261622761

Facebook Messenger app - https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261642082
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
Big, big thank you! I was really looking forward to a Fb and Messenger variant without ads.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
As usual :D, glad i could help you and some others, maybe ;)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
One last question: Will these get replaced by the standard PlayStore versions after an update or they remain as they are now?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
No, they are separatley signed apk's and in my case (i'm sure yours and others) don't receive PlayStore notifications to update or any other. PlayStore confirms they are installed and give you option to Uninstall :) just like in my bellow SS. They don't appear on your installed app list from PlayStore
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Andrei Morar:
Just perfect!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Anyway, keep an eye on that thread, evilwombat updates frequently those apps :)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] markvd90:
I used your list, but for some reason my recent apps stopped working. Did you experience anything like this? I'm on EMUI10 if that matters
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Hi m8, it's strange, i don't have an issue with recent apps. Still shows up when slide my finger upwards starting from the bottom of my screen and tested with on screen keys too...:rolleyes:
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] markvd90:
You also on EMUI 10?

I think it's because the launcher got disabled.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Yes, i'm on EMUI 10, BUT i have Huawei launcher installed and using. So it seems that uninstalling Huawei launcher also disable recent apps on Huawei. I will post this info in OP. Try reinstalling it through ADB, on EMUI 9.1 worked reinstalling some apps or search it on Huawei apps app if you didn't removed it using ADB.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] markvd90:
Yeah, just did a factory reset.

Can I ask why you use uninstall instead of pm disable?

Is the uninstall more effective?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
uninstall also frees up the space used by apps :D and also it makes sure it won't get auto re-enabled by system. And one more thing, If i just disable them i observed that they are still consuming RAM (according to Developer Options >> Memory).
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Hi m8,

YES, it doesn't break anything on your device, you can remove both. No issue on my device and 5 other that i have in my home (all Huawei).

If you want to update any Huawei app after removing appgallery, you can check for an update on apkmirror and get it from there ;)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cienight:
Exactly what I was waiting to hear. Cheers mate!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] rkosc:
Hello

Could somebody tell me please, which system app is responsible for Battery tab in settings menu? I have lost it after mass debloating.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Siquel:
Hi. Take a look on my post #153 in this topic (page 16). I have removed stock app gallery and unfortunately, I had to restore it.

In Camera app you are not able to open last made photo without stock gallery app.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cienight:
Hey bro, yeah I've read your post. However you removed both the stock gallery (photos) and the app gallery. Apparently the photo gallery breaks the feature that you mentioned but the app gallery has nothing to do with it, I just tested. Thanks anyway!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Siquel:
Yeah.. You asked about appgallery, I have no idea why I thought that you mean photo gallery :) Sorry mate.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
I can't tell you m8. But haven't you saved somewhere all the ADB commands that you used? If you did, search online for info about every app that seems to be related with battery. If you didn't, i guess that you will have to make a Factory Reset in order to restore your battery tab.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] rkosc:
Unfortunatelly I am used to Linux, where terminal commands are automatically stored, but it doesn't happen in windows, which I used to debloat. So I have no history of the commands...
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Then your only way to restore it is by Factory Reset :(. And as an advice :p, put all your commands that are to be used on ADB on a Notepad file, so the next time when you're using Windows to remove them, you will know which one it was ;)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] rkosc:
Ok, I managed to get back with battery tab.

I did not traced, which packages are essential (first tought was hwaps, but not only, maybe with systemmanager), but I reinstalled (adb shell pm install-existing --user 0 <package-name> )only few. There is a list (I did not removed all of them before, some of them just for sure):

com.huawei.android.hwaps

com.huawei.systemmanager

com.huawei.hiai

com.huawei.android.instantshare

com.huawei.android.hwouc

com.huawei.android.thememanager
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
com.huawei.android.hwaps - Advanced Power Saving feature. DO NOT remove this.

com.huawei.systemmanager - Huawei System Manager app. DO NOT remove this.

com.huawei.hiai - ''the HiAI Engine opens application capabilities, integrates “a plurality of AI capabilities and apps [that make] the apps more intelligent and powerful.” DO NOT remove this.

com.huawei.android.instantshare - Huawei Share features, a sistem app. DO NOT remove this.

com.huawei.android.hwouc - System update app. DO NOT remove this.

com.huawei.android.thememanager - Theme Manager, if you want to change default theme. DO NOT remove this
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cienight:
Anyone removed the stock file manager app? If so were there any problems without it? I can't seem to find the app name to unistall it... There's two apps : files and my files both using wifi and lte data...
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
You can remove the stock file manager, but before doing that, be sure you have installed another one ;)

com.huawei.hidisk is the Huawei file manager

com.huawei.hifolder is the Huawei Online Cloud folder service
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cienight:
Great thanks!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cienight:
Something worth mentioning. Although I deleted hms something keeps creating a com.huawei.hwid folder (internal/android/) . Is this normal?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
If it's in Android folder or in root folder, it happens because EMUI tries to acces the app, but it's not there. No worries about that, you can delete them (everytime they reapear) ;)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cienight:
The problem is in this folder a push.log file keeps getting created and it keeps getting bigger in size. Maybe it's a log of all push notification placed by the android system there?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Don't know, but i don't have that folder and i use Xiaomi File Manager...It might be and because i removed my unwanted apps after i made a reset and before connecting it to Wi-Fi /mobile data...
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cienight:
Can you please check: Internal storage>Android>data>com.huawei.hwid>files>log>push.log
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Push log usually tracks the status of push notifications that are queued to send from your system. My com.huawei.hwid/Files folder is empty, 0 bites...?

Later edit : my wife's phone (P30 Pro with original file explorer) has it and it's like in SS bellow.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Gnaget:
Mine is also empty.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] rubiicon59:
I've just checked my VOG-L29

Internalstorage>Android>data>com.huawei.hwid>files>log and there is no /push.log in mine. There are 53 .log files totalling 6.16 MB.

52 are named in this format - 31737_2020_05_07_15_41_53.log

The last is - HiAdKitLog.log
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Cienight:
Thanks for the info, I appreciate it.

Mine keeps getting bigger, was 100kb in the morning now it's about 350kb. I suspect the stock file manager, I'll remove it tonight and report back.

---------- Post added at 09:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:46 PM ----------

Did you remove the stock file manager?

---------- Post added at 09:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:37 PM ----------

I probably had these too but apparently they were removed when I removed hms.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Gnaget:
No I had not removed anything.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mangtas_666:
Is it possible to remove google sms then replace with textra?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Yes, you can. But before removing install Textra. After removing restart device and set Textra as default app for SMS ;) The ADB command is:

pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.messaging
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] c.raul.andrei:
Thank you in advance for this.

Tomorrow I'll get the P30 Pro and can't wait to get it as vanilla as possible. Coming from OnePlus 6t, will be difficult to get the same experience, but I'll do my best.

Off topic, how's the durability of the phone? I saw in one video that it got screen burn in where the fingerprint is.

I think I'll use the face unlock mostly and fingerprint only for authentication.

[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Hi m8,

And welcome to the club ?. No issues for me here with my device and it has made 1 year on April 26th. I use the fingerprint and face unlock + gestures on it and everything is the same as it was when i bought it. I think that the guy on YouTube kept his finger 23/24 hrs on the fingerprint zone, ? otherwise i don't see how he can get the burn in.

Saw that problem of burn in on some units of Mate 30 Pro were the keyboard left the marks, but users got their units replaced and the burn didn't appear on new units. So i guess it's about luck (regarding the display you have on it) and about how your dailly usage is (mainly games with static icons for hours or normal usage like YouTube, emails, photos... ).
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mangtas_666:
I tried removing the default sms app but textra cannot send sms nor mms.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
That's strange. I remember on EMUI 9.1 when i used it it was working. Maybe Textra isn't compatible with EMUI 10??
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mangtas_666:
I tried with the default sms app textra is working fine. I also tried handcent sms still cannot send without default google sms app.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Good to know it, m8 ;) Then if we want to use other SMS app rather than the default one, we should keep it installed and set the other app as default ?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ole12:
Thanks alot for sharing this.

I have two duplicated apps that i dont know how to remove.

1. Files/my files, i got one with version 10.0.0.1 and a second one with version 10.6.0.330

How do i know which one to remove?

Also, i got two stk-sim in app drawer, but only one showing in settings. I need it, but dont need two.

I know there is two, because i get two notications when stk is triggered.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Hi m8,

You can remove the stock file manager, but before doing that, be sure you have installed another one, like Root Explorer that i've saw on your SS ;)

com.huawei.hidisk is the Huawei file manager - pm uninstall --user 0 com.huawei.hidisk

com.huawei.hifolder is the Huawei Online Cloud folder service - pm uninstall --user 0 com.huawei.hifolder

For stk sim, you can't remove one and let the other, it's only one command which will remove stk app (for both SIM-s) from device (pm uninstall --user 0 com.android.stk)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] deltaman83:
Hi guys, since I removed Facebook system, app manager and the apk using adb script, I switched to the Facebook moded version v16.4 from xda .....that I uninstalled later too, for Friendly apk.

I reinstalled them using adb, but every time I download the original Facebook apk on Google play or else, the install fails.

Could some of you extract the orginal apk from Huawei latest firmware please ?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
If you have installed the Facebook modded Messenger, you need to uninstall that one too in order to install official Facebook version, because it has a different signature vs modded apps ;)
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] deltaman83:
Of course !! :silly:

Thanks man, I should have thought about it at first , glad you were there :good:
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Yeah, it happened to me too and i thought i'd better mention it ?.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ernest2728:
Hi SilviuO I would like you to help me with something, how can I eliminate the animation of the operator when turning on or turning off the cell phone, everywhere I find only applications but nothing about the animation of the operator, thanks in advance.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Hi m8,

If you have a customised firmware on your device, your only way to remove is by flashing the firmware using dload method from my thread WITHOUT SIM and when prompted by your carrier to get their updates, don't allow them to be installed. Or if you can, use another SIM.

Otherwise the bootanimation can't be changed/remove when your carrier installs, because that modifies the style inside system itslef, by your carrier :(.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mangtas_666:
M8 you cannot eliminate power on/shut down animation if you don't have root.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mangtas_666:
Quick question m8 is it possible to remove hsmcore? And i don't understand what it does but i notice it keeps on updating weekly.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
?, yes, is the Huawei Mobile Services (including Huawei ID) app.

pm uninstall --user 0 com.huawei.hwid
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mangtas_666:
Is there any effect if i uninstall it? And what is hms core functionality?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
You won't have an Huawei ID assigned to your phone, won't be able to download paid themes from Theme store, will ask you to install it when using Music app to listen Online, but otherwisw you can live without Huawei ID on phone, no problem or seen errors :D

HMS Core INFO

Got it thank you so much for the info.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] samlis:
Hi and thank you very much for the tip. please I would like to know is it possible to uninstall carrier services without having any problem thanks in advance
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Hi m8,

You can remove their bloatware apps that install as a patch after receiving the update. But other things related to settings can be changed mannually (APN/VoLTE)?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mangtas_666:
So m8 if i want to re enable anything that I've disabled any way to do it via adb shell?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Yep. To restore ANY app removed via ADB:

adb shell cmd package install-existing <package_name>

If you uninstalled an preload app (like Screen Recording or Calculator), it will be reinstalled only by Factory Reset.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mangtas_666:
Okay thanks m8 iam trying to uninstall app that i barely use.

I had an issue with my phone and it went to repair. I got it back today, all clean.

I did a new factory reset and before I updated apps in Google Playstore, I started removing all apps.

But I don't know why, Booking.com, Facebook and Google Sheets keep coming back.

Does someone have any idea what's happening??
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Had your issue one time when i was on EMUI 9.1, uninstalled them the normal way and when restarted device, there were back :confused:...I removed them using ADB commands twice and restatred device, there were gone for good :silly:

adb devices adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.booking

adb devices adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.appmanager

adb devices adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.system
