Did you apply preset for bloatware remove or only adb commands bro..?
[General Topics] George Musat:
Settings, Apps, show system apps.

- Clear App Data & Cache of "Always-on Display"

Here you say to clear data and cache but you also said to uninstall it
[General Topics] agentR:
This worked for me to get calls back for both sims
[General Topics] Ad74:
Yes i did both, but as @Hamid Chikh , already indicated, it is also a choice to your own taste. See what does/doesn't work for you, example, Hamid has S21, I have S22,
[General Topics] agentR:
Guys for my S20 FE 5G (Snapdragon), my single core score in Geekbench is coming very low (550 ish). I have done all tweaks in OP but why still bad score in Geekbench. Any solution for this would be greatly appreciated!
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
It'll depend on the device, you can try it and give some feedback
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Seems kinda extreme, but hey, you do you
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Agreed here.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Factory Reset

This is my result from yesterday, im on android 11 november update. I dont want to update on android 12. Thank you Hamid and all guys..
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
You're welcome, but i think you should update tho
[General Topics] agentR:
I literally performed the Geekbench test inside freezer, single core scores still very low as before, but multicore scores are good.
[General Topics] agentR:
Already did but same low single core score.

I have searched rakuten_denwa to know it's meaning and usage but didn't find any, Can you share is about this please? Just curious

Also in my S22 and S10e send_security_reports is null as default. Just to let you know.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
You don't need that app to edit pictures, as you can see here
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Null means it's not present, so just let it be.

Rakuten Denwa seems to be a communication app in Asia, not needed for anything as I've been testing it for a long time now
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Yes, it's an app, but i didn't understand why does it have to have a whole parameter in android. Rakuten is the parent company of Viber if i remember correctly
[General Topics] paul222008:
Thank you, Have you find a way to remove the emergency icon in the power menu?
[General Topics] agentR:
Im going to factory reset one last time to see if fixes the issue. Ill let you guys know.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Not yet unfortunately
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Just wait for it to settle
[General Topics] agentR:
What do you mean?
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Yes, just wait a couple days then try again
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Thanks for your efforts, unfortunately I've already tried it and it didn't make it to OP yet
[General Topics] agentR:
Inside the settings menu there used to be a search button on top right. Its not there now after removing bloatware. I searched this thread but could not find which process to restore to get that back. Plz can someone help. Thanks!
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
Below are some lists of different types of Samsung bloatware. The list is in alphabet order and the source is from technastic.com.

Note:

Below apps are found on the Galaxy S9, S10, S20, Note 10, and Note 20 with most of them are common on all Galaxy phones and tablets of Samsung. You as a single user don’t have all of the following bloatware.

Below lists include some essential system apps that must be removed or disabled carefully. For some functional apps, once you uninstall them, to ensure your normal use of the device, you have to install third-party alternatives, such as Samsung Keyboard.

I've attached it as a pdf so you can have it as a reference point.​

Hopefully this helps some people with their debloating.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
April Update fixed battery apparently

https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS22/comments/tuj7zi
[General Topics] agentR:
Yes it works! Thanks buddy :)
[General Topics] Josyfree:
What would be the risks? I mean the heat it's the principal reason of failure on the battery
[General Topics] marko94:
Checking this list https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/12jEGQftFUL3vAI03X0Ku1LgoWFQKdwPA_WHuLh_2ics/htmlview and the one from OP ( disabled, deleted etc) , in OP list there are a lot of packages which are here stated as a not recommended ,not safe etc . any reason ? just curious, cause I am making my own list
[General Topics] marko94:
what did you used ? only bloat remove or adb commands also ? that is nice stats
[General Topics] George Musat:
Nice! But why do you use beta for these 2 apps?
[General Topics] George Musat:
I debloated a little my s21 ultra and the battery got WORSE

I didn t cleaned the cache but when i will get home i will tel yall an update

I don t know what affects the battery
[General Topics] marko94:
Did you used all OP's disabled,deleted,kept C20 files or you modified them ?
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
You should probably post an update once your battery has finished learning usage patterns and you go through an actual battery cycle. It is wildly inaccurate when it is still learning.

Did you recently do a factory reset?
[General Topics] George Musat:
Hmm,I didnt uninstalled it,should I? It helps with battery?
[General Topics] George Musat:
I think i will uninstall it.

I use it sometimes but lets see the battery life without it
[General Topics] George Musat:
I will try this too 👍
[General Topics] George Musat:
I have my phone for 9 months and I used to charged 2 times (not full) a day

And it is sad for how much money I spent on it.

And now I m worried my battery will be worse because of this.

I will try this app too! Hope it helps!!
[General Topics] George Musat:
Can you give me a link? I didn t found it on play store
[General Topics] Android.camel:
How do I remove this?

I tried this command and it only makes the page blank not remove the link from the settings.

adb shell settings put global online_manual_url 0

I also tried having Tips installed and disabled but that only remove the remote control option.

S22U
[General Topics] George Musat:
Thanks
[General Topics] edwardob:
it's that just with screen on?

you don't seem to be using anything else... except for about 2.5 hours
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
Yeah, extremely light usage it seems. Everyone will be different based on usage
[General Topics] George Musat:
i can t get even half of this,what are u talking about
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
I believe you bro, I'm just going by the numbers in your screenshot.
[General Topics] tsiharry:
Is it safe?
[General Topics] Venom0642:
Interesting my question is that there's something wrong with that SOT it shows 7hrs and 30min but if you look below it says 0 screen off time , so definitely something weird n your battery SOT.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
We don't aim at the same level of debloating, they want to standard level, I'm on the extreme side. I did extensive testing to confirm what's deletable
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Post links when you recommend apps, please
[General Topics] George Musat:
my calibration was done and after this i restarted my phone,thats all i need to do?
[General Topics] edwardob:
few apps used for about 3 hrs early on ... nothing after that... screen just left on it seems... the numbers say everything
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
Has anyone managed to achieve higher than 1230 single-core CPU benchmark? And if so, what settings or configurations did you use.

I know Geekbench isn't the end-all-be-all to gauging performance but I just like to test and see for myself.

All my previous Galaxies have been lightning fast regardless of benchmark scores being low or high, so I know it doesn't matter.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Pretty sure calibration can't be done this way without root. I advise you to follow instructions on OP to calibrate your battery
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Achieving higher benchmark scores isn't synonym to anything in real life. Try instead to reach your most optimal state where you have that piece of mind that it won't fail you, performance wise, or battery wise.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Not necessarily, he might try to reach max by using his phone nonstop.
[General Topics] Andrive:
Anybody have issues with GOS reinstalling itself?
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
Yeah, I disabled it instead, it won't let me uninstall. Cod Mobile is running at peak 60hz and no throttling with GOS disabled. Game Booster and Game Launcher were uninstalled perfectly using the preset, but I had to manually disable GOS with ADB App Control.

S22U One UI 4.1 Snapdragon. March AVC8 update.
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
I know, but I also like to have fun 😉

You know what they say... "curiosity bricked the phone."
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Just apply the presets
[General Topics] Android.camel:
I have, the user manual still there. Might be something changed in s22u.
[General Topics] jsmcmahon89:
Is this the stutter people are referring to? This was happening in Brave when scrolling, I switched to Chrome thinking it was an app issue and that worked fine for a few days but now it's insane in Chrome when trying to scroll through this thread. Switched to Samsung Internet and it is gone again, but I'm not sure for how long. I'm completely up to date on OP and AOD clears as well as chrome flags. It happens no matter what my screen refresh is set to.
[General Topics] vxxxxx15:
you're turning off "double tap to wake" but leaving "Fingerprint always on" enabled, wouldn't that keep your screen "waiting" for taps anyway? what's the difference here?
[General Topics] paul222008:
manual url 0 will not work if samsung internet is installed try to disable or delete the app and run the adb commands again.
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
The "double tap to turn on screen" gesture is separate from "Fingerprint always on" as it works anywhere on the home screen and lockscreen. Fingerprint always on: tap to show will only work on the lockscreen obviously. You can have one without the other or you can have both or have neither enabled.
[General Topics] NozGojira:
guys my friend has a galaxy S9. flashing presets giving his phone No signal. the rest are perfect, what app do we need to restore again? its just i forgot

-------Edit: okie found it. Restore all ims service thanks!
[General Topics] StratoS117:
Longtime lurker here. I just want to say that this thread is amazing. When I first got my S22U the battery life was awful. I'm talking like 4 hours SOT. I applied the adb tweaks in the OP and from Kris's post, and the battery time is phenomenal! I limit my battery to 85% max charge and the SOT is so nice now. Also using GalaxyMaxHz for the 24hz- 96hz adaptive sweetness. I'm tempted to run the debloat scripts on top of this to see if it gets even better.
[General Topics] vxxxxx15:
oh yeah I know what each of those do but if you're trying to optimize battery life either one will keep your screen "active" so you can tap it to turn on your phone/use fingerprint reader
[General Topics] Kris_b1104:
That's what's up bro!!!

I can't live without GalaxyMaxHz since finding out about it. I've noticed that if I set my animation/transition scale to 0.25 for each, use the CPU Responsiveness adb command, set processing speed to optimized, my 60hz basically feels like 96hz with how fast the phone behaves.

I used to have it set to 96hz-24hz Adaptive but now it's at 60-24 and just as fast for me, while preserving a little more battery.

##### LAST EDITED: 23-01-2021 ##### URGENT UPDATE

- DELETED Spyware (com.sec.android.systemupdate).

This app affects SECURITY, PERFORMANCE and BATTERY LIFE.

Keep in mind that i test apps/presets for at least 3 days before updating the thread.

This app caused performance hit for me, i noticed dropped frames for about 3 minutes after the boot sequence, and battery drain. I can't quit remember if it was included in the firmware or got loaded with time thru some ads.

Don't worry about system updates, the process that's actually responsible for it is untouched.

Here are some articles:

Techcrunch

Sammobile

Zimperium

We're now at:

- 251 Deleted apps

- 2 Disabled apps (uninstalling these will break apps.)

- 160 Kept system apps

ONCE DONE, REBOOT INTO RECOVERY THEN CLEAR CACHE PARTITION AND REPAIR APPS.

Hi. WIfi calling is enabled on my S21 but calls just abort after 1 second. Are there any other services responsible for flawless WIFI Calling?
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
I'll let the other users reply, I don't use wifi calling
[General Topics] docson:
Sh*t. Has definitely to do with disabled/uninstalled services. Just restored everything and Wifi Calling works again. Any help appreciated as to what service to keep.

[General Topics] marios199546:
With all respect but dude. Check this app manifest. Look at the permissions and launch intent event. You have removed all of system apps. I'm sure your logcat is full of exceptions and errors. I believe your gain are from capping frame rate, using batter saver and disabling location from some app or disabling sync. I have debloated my device but without removing some nice smart stuff that this device provides
[General Topics] marios199546:
Also please leave IMS stuff intact. If someone doesnt want VoLTE/VoWifi or RCS just disable them from the device.

When in countries they are going to disable 2G/3G and the VoLTE will the choice to go for voice, how this device is going to work ?
[General Topics] marios199546:
Also why do you keep ARzone ? Which functionality breaks ? Also samsung keyboard is necessary for the cilpboard app edge to work. Just to know
[General Topics] NozGojira:
Hi, do you have kind of thread with proper presets. Can you kindly share Us too. so user will pick which they prefer. I also sometimes want to retain the special/system apps on phone. Thank you!

Maybe you guys can share idea each other. So other feature on phone will not lose. 👌

Nope

About the 3 facebook backogroud apps that come preisntalled. Are they "spyware" ? App Manager & installer are about updating the background apps. So resource wise they are OK.

About the Facebook services app, i am experimenting. Without it many times i lose notifications. With it i think don't lose them, without noticing serious battery drain or lag. If you dont use facebok katana or orca then you are free to uninstall/disable them
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Hi !

Please, feel free to use my suggested personal presets, or not.

If you don't like my personal choice of apps, feel free to skip this thread.
[General Topics] marios199546:
Of course. This is what i do . But please don't spread false info for example for spyware. We are all here to share info about making our devices useful/ better or more well-suited for our needs.

I applied many things on list. I had 3.5 gb of 8 gb ram and now its 2.5 gb of 8. Thanks for it. Just restored:

Bixby routines

Nfc

My files

I think they shouldnt be on the list.

And one question, what is it for? Performance or battery saving?

Disable Smart Stay​

- adb shell settings put system intelligent_sleep_mode 0

- adb shell settings put secure adaptive_sleep 0

@Hamid Chikh I am just curious, and ofc if this is possible.

As you said before, your list on OP for debloating is the extreme one.

But is it possible to put one non extreme also :P thx

[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:

[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Hey i just watched your video, andi That is not an issue, it's how it works ! Once you successfully apply the presets in the right way, you'll get 0 loaded because they're all applied. That's how it works and that's how you know you did good and successfully applied presets.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
You must be mistaking, a calibration app can't cause this.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
It might not be today, you might just noticed only
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
That's not an issue, that's how it works, it's how you know you successfully applied the presets. You do exactly that, like @Dj daudi did in his video
[General Topics] marko94:
OP , can you make guide what to do when we updating our phone ? As I know, we need to restore all apps etc, but I never did that ..thx
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
There are 2 packages to restore, both called software update. One has "Wssy..." in the name, and the other has "Soa..."
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Congratulations mate, finally you got rid of it
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
You don't need to sort it alphabetically, because it'll be automatically once loaded to AppControl
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
You're free to take risks, but i advise you restore everything
[General Topics] marko94:
So restore all apps which I backup during debloat procedure via AppControl ?
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Yes, restore everything you deleted/disabled, just like you never debloated.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
@Dj daudi by the way, that 1/2 apps you got when loading "disabled" is Samsung tips. Download it from galaxy store, then disable it to get rid of "remote support" from settings

Fking 8% just for an always on fingerprint,WHAT?
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
Interesting, i already tried once to take out all gesture apps, ended up crashing system ui. I'll try again and see if it's stable, I'll add it to next preset update
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
That's not the case, those system apps will all have a unified battery drain, check other apps like android system you'll see the same usage.
[General Topics] Hamid Chikh:
So yes, i can't uninstall those. He might be using the 3 button navigation system, i use gestures. Also only 3 of those in that list are present in my device
