[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Questions & Answers] cgrimm9:
you have issues with netflix cause you are rooted. you need to make sure your phone passes safteynet. and make sure you hide netflix if that still dont work.

I dont know if it works on this phone but I search modules for fingerprint in the searchbar it should be the first thing that pops up to download you need to download a busybox module too and in google store download a terminal after all installed you need to type PROPS in terminal and fallow the instructions if the phone is not on there its not compatible

I am waiting for my unlock code so I can get my phone rooted so I not 100% sure but that is what fixed it on my moto g7 power.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Questions & Answers] js042507:
It's probably edexposed that is tripping safetynet. Even with that xposed module, it's not a true safetynet hide. I am rooted and have Netflix working (from the play store). But I can pass safetynet. Try installing safetynet check app and see if it passes...don't check from magisk. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scottyab.safetynet.sample
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Questions & Answers] Haunt3r:
Had to remove edxposed as well as use props. Magisk triggers safetynet currently. Everything's working good now. Thanks guys.
[Google Pixel 4 Questions & Answers] xmaciek82x:
Hey everyone, I love my Pixel 3 except when it comes to the main thing a phone does, make calls!

The call quality is terrible, I need to constantly hangup and call people back. Now that I work from home and have call meetings non-stop, it is very apparent how bad the calls are. It is not a carrier issue, I have 4 other people on my plan and they are fine (no PIXEL users). This also happens when I'm using VOIP programs like Slack, Jabber, etc.

So I need to change. I know Pixel 4 is not a "great" upgrade to the Pixel 3 and hate to spend money on this "upgrade" but I might have too. Has anyone switched from Pixel 3 to Pixel 4? What are your thoughts?

How is the call quality?

My phone needs to be rooted, run Viper4Android, and make calls.
[Google Pixel 4 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
I didn't have Pixel 3, but came from Pixel 2. I do like Pixel 4 and call quality is great(T-Mobile), never had any complaints from anyone or my self for that matter. I haven't rooted in a long time, so you probably would know better about it :) User experience is great as well and the battery lasts about day and a half with my moderate usage.
[Google Pixel 4 Questions & Answers] xmaciek82x:
Thanks. As much as I dont want to, I'll force myself to do the "upgrade". I had pixel 2 and the change to pixel 3 was a huge improvement across the board but one.. call quality.

I'm trying to convince myself to get a samsung but I really can't do it. The lack of OS updates would drive me crazy :)
[Google Pixel 4 Questions & Answers] Charkatak:
I had different Samsung phones and the latest one was Note 10 and even though Samsung did update their UI, had a faster storage speed, it still wasn't properly optimized as my old Pixel 2. When I had Pixel phone and Samsung latest device(never had Galaxy S20) side by side, the user experience was much better on the Pixel. It had a special feel when navigating, opening apps, settings...

Samsung did get better with monthly updates but not Android OS
[Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers] fielachQT:
About a month ago I bought a used 6/128 with one problem - after 3-4 days, the smartphone starts to lag, freeze and so on. I decided that the problem was software and took a chance. At the moment I tried most of the firmware and kernels, changed the file system to F2FS (which, by the way, helped, lags were delayed for a day and a half). After a reset, the smartphone starts to work normally, the memory speed is high - 280-290 / 170-180 read / write. Random speed is also high, depending on which kernel is installed. It doesn’t matter how much I fill up the smartphone’s memory, a certain period of 4-5 days elapses and it starts to dull, work slowly, freeze, do not open applications, load, install anything for a very long time, does not pass memory tests for speed or 40/30 mb/s, which is not normal. Reseted the cache / dalvick cache, installed a lot of kernels. Only a full reset or reset without removing the internal drive helps . At the moment, the Evolution X is installed, everything is smooth, excellent, it takes 4-5 days and starts again. The device can take a couple of minutes, then work for an hour normally (a little slower, but not critical) and so on in a circle and randomly. may lag there an hour, not even open the lock screen, and so on. Nobody knows what to treat? Memory Samsung, RAM Samsung.
[Redmi K20 / Xiaomi Mi 9T Questions & Answers] s0i37:
Hello.

I would like to use custom kernels with enabled modprobe supporting. But I am afraid to flash third party modules with magisk because of potential data lost or boot loops or something like that.

So I want to loading kernel without flashing with fastboot like a:

fastboot boot boot.img

However, I don't know why, all custom kernels ditribute with 'zImage' file. Therefore I need to repack boot.img manualy:

abootimg -x boot.img

(abootimg deb package)

or

unpack boot.img

(whiteboard[at]ping[at]se/Android/Unmkbootimg)

or

mkboot boot.img out/

(github[at]com/xiaolu/mkbootimg_tools)

In all cases I have the same result (files have identical md5sum).

But when I try to build boot.img I've obtain not bootable image.

Also I noticed that after rebuilds boot.img lose 100MB:

original boot.img - 128M

new_boot.img - 17M

Also notice, I didn't make anything changes!

Please tell me, what I do wrong?

Thank you.

I added AI Lens to my debloat list.

I just updated to 10.1.0.122 and did not find new packages installed or restored as part of the ROM update.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] avetny:
thank you very much my friend ! just did this on Mate XS !!!

finally !
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
You're more than welcome. I've been doing some network analysis using the AdGuard Firewall and I might update this guide with my findings. I found out the phone is phoning back home (to China) quite a bit, especially Huawei Cloud and HiCloud servers despite not using any of these apps or Huawei cloud services.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] spinner_w:
how do i do this?

i cant use adb i have developer options and usb debugging on but adb devices dont show the phone
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
It's probably a driver problem. Take a look at this guide: https://androidmtk.com/download-minimal-adb-and-fastboot-tool
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] spinner_w:
thank you got i to work had to revoke usb debugging
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
Thanks for this :) have you noticed any improvement with battery life after debloating all of these apps?

Any issues after debloating?

Also, can you please tell me the exact command you have to type to debloat? Starting from ADB shell, what is the next command please? And what software /hardware do I need to debloat?
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] spinner_w:
setting click build 7 times enable developer mode

go in developer mode enable usb debugging

download adb

open folder shift + right click

open commend window

adb devices to see if your device is found

then copy paste each commend
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
No issues, no crashes and no weird behavior. If you read my comments, I explain what each command does and whether or not it's removing an important feature.

You simply have to copy/paste the commands in bold, these are the full commands.

I pretty much debloated the phone as soon as I got it so I can't really speak about battery life improvement.

A few days ago I even removed the stock Huawei dialer in favor of True Phone (2.0.0.0-hw rev 99 found on the AppGallery). I just updated my first post to reflect that.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
Thanks!! I stupidly uninstalled something I shouldn't have, restarted the phone and phone wouldn't boot past the huawei logo ?? had to perform factory reset. Be very careful with what you uninstall
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
Do you remember what you uninstalled specifically? There's a chance you could have restored the missing apps using ADB in Fastboot Mode instead of doing a factory reset.

The list of apps in my post is what I personally removed right after a factory reset (to make sure I was starting from scratch).
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
I have no idea what I removed :( but even after removing it and restating the phone, there was no way to reinstall the app because the phone wouldn't load last the huawei logo meaning I couldn't get it into adb mode at all.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
Alright. If I understand correctly, you also removed things that were not on my list, correct?
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
That's correct yes. You won't really know if the things you've removed were safe to remove until you've restarted the phone pretty much
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
Yep that's true! I wrote this guide after doing many reboots, I'll update my post to add some guidelines.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Thanos88:
excellent, as long as you rebooted your device after the debloats you've mentioned in your post that's good ?? I still have some more debloats left to do from your list. I was seriously hoping for better battery life, I hope debloating will improve it
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] faceliler:

Im still stuck on 131 i tr8ed everything to get 134 or 135 but nothing i have the els_nx9 model international variant do you have the zip update plz. Thank you so much
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
That's what I have too. If you really want the update, you could try using HiSuite. I don't have the zip update.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] LevsOG:
Great, just recently got my device and my first time using ADB and what not. Very straight forward guide indeed and hopefully slightly increase in performance/battery.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] DarkAngel117:
Im not sure why, but after debloating most of the suggestions on here, I can't sign into swiftkey (I have also updated to the latest version). For some reason when I try to sign in with my Microsoft account it just tries 5-6 times then says "too many tries, try again later" and the password IS correct, and I have signed into the account on the phone... maybe there's a service that I uninstalled that's related? Any ideas? (Things I kept were messaging, calling apps, and magazine unlock).
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
Sorry, I can't really help you there as I don't log into any account for Swiftkey. I would be surprised if your issue was caused by removing the packages in this guide. Swiftkey is a standalone, third party app that shouldn't have any dependencies on Huawei packages.

Try downloading Swiftkey from APKpure or APKmirror, then uninstall the stock Huawei/AppGallery SwiftKey using ADB. Then install the Swiftkey you downloaded. REMEMBER YOU WON'T HAVE A KEYBOARD so make sure you download the apk for the new Swiftkey before removing the preinstalled one.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] TweetyPeety:
is it also possible to remove the launcher, when having installed for example Nova Launcher. On the Mate 20 Pro you could do it and than only Nova Launcher was left, as you can't really set Nova Launcher so the standard Launcher. But in this case, the gesture to home was gone, so one had to switch to icons on the button for navigation.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Croize:
Could i use this list för p40 lite aswell ? Thanks :)
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
Most likely yes.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
I followed my own guide after doing a fresh upgrade (factory reset) to .142

The performance and battery life are great!

I've used my phone lightly these past few days and there is definitely no background battery drain; I'm actually at 74 hours with 20% left. I'm also using pretty aggressive App Launch settings, restricting many apps to run in the background.

Can I uninstall Optimiser? What's the effect?
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
That's not a good idea. It's more than an app, it's a system service that manages your battery, among other things. I researched all these things months ago, and came to the conclusion that Optimizer shouldn't be removed. Also, it provides a convenient way to clear the cache for your other apps.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ptfuzi:
removing swiftkey removed my keyboard. So I had to search it without a key board on Google play. After the install I could login correctly on SwiftKey with MS account
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
I warned a user in the comments on how to avoid this situation:

I added a warning to my original post. However, you could have saved a lot of time by doing:

adb shell cmd package install-existing com.touchtype.swiftkey
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] hack3rpt:
Thanks for the guide. It works perfectly on the P40 Lite.

Only 1 thing that I wanted to note: on the P40 Lite there is no com.huawei.music package, instead it's called com.android.mediacenter.

I also have a question: will the apps get installed again if I update or factory reset the phone?
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
They will only get reinstalled if you do a factory reset. If you install an update, they won't come back.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] ptfuzi:
I updated the phone and some apps came back. I noticed because of the petal search

Guys, how do I uninstall Huawei Webview?

Also, do you guys recommend to keep Huawei Cloud or is there a better alternative? I restored a backup and the Gallery images that restored were of a very low file size less than 500 KB whereas the originals were at least 3-5 MB's in size.

I searched Google, but could not find any information on this. If the Cloud versions of images are compressed and a smaller size is restored then Cloud is of no use to me except for restoring phone settings.

Thanks

Hello friends!

I recommend trying my new program for managing applications on android - ADB AppControl.

With it you will forget about the command line. Disable and remove bloatware with an easy-to-use graphical interface. Save disabled apps to a preset and share with others users. Download and install applications. As well as many other cool features, including a convenient console.

I created a preset for ADB AppControl from the list of apps in this topic and you can apply it easily.

You can choose which applications to disable when you load it into the program. If you disable something wrong, you can easily enable it again.

I use Nova Launcher and I cannot use default weather app/widget. I have Today Weather installed. Did someone uninstall system weather or clock widget?

My fear is uninstalling clock and everything stop working :D

I have a P40 Pro+.

I've uninstalled three more apps:

adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.huawei.intelligent ****** Assistant TODAY

adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.huawei.hwvoipservice ****** MeeTime (not available here in Germany and I'd really not use it)

adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.huawei.android.thememanager ****** Themes manager (I use Nova Launcher)
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
I removed it in the past but it's not a good idea. I don't remember why but these days I keep it on my phone.

I personally don't use any Huawei cloud features, I don't really trust my pictures and general data to be stored on some foreign server. I manually transfer my pictures to my PC every once in a while. Otherwise there are a ton of cloud backup apps for Android that you can use.

Overall I'm pretty disappointed with the Huawei backup/restore app. I was under the impression that being a stock app on the phone, it would have additional privileges resembling root access (like Titanium Backup) and would do a great job at fully restoring the OS and apps. Unfortunately, when you restore apps from Huawei backups, it's like a fresh installation; all your app settings and data are lost.

Rules and settings defined in the stock Optimizer app are not backed up either. This means that "App launch" and "Network access" settings are lost.

So all in all, without root, you'll be spending quite a bit of time setting up your phone again after a factory reset, even after restoring a Huawei backup.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
Thanks a lot! I actually wrote my own batch script to automate removing the apps I listed, but I'll give your app a shot the day I do a factory reset :) Based on your description, it sounds like the ADB tool for Xiaomi devices which is super convenient.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
Thanks, much appreciated! I updated my original post with this information.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] H-Emmanuel:
My original post already contains com.huawei.intelligent

I use the stock launcher so I kept ThemeManager.

I also kept the stock Clock app, I can't tell you whether or not it's safe to remove it. If you replace it with another Clock app, you better do some heavy testing to make sure that your alarms #1 go off at the right time and #2 can always be heard when they go off. I've programmed quite a bit on Android and interruptions can be a PITA. Depending on the Android version, Huawei's implementation and Huawei's own custom code, there is always a chance that a third party clock app may not function properly, especially in certain scenarios like the screen is off (device sleeping), battery is low, Do Not Disturb is enabled etc.

I removed the stock weather app and MeeTime using the Uninstall button.

Mine still attempts to contact Huawei quite a lot (10 plus times a day) even after the debloating described here. I would recommend NetGuard, a non-root fire wall. Works very well as long as you don't need to use a VPN as well.

First of all thanks for the amazing guide. I have Blokada installed and after your guide the amount of tracking decreased notably. I have been encountering a problem though which might not even be correlated to your list, but I still wanted to ask you guys about it. My contacts desynchronize on my phone after a few hours of having it turned on. After restart it synchronizes again. I reinstalled com.huawei.contacts, but alas they still desynchronize.
