Home - Package Disabler
The only NON-root solution that let’s you disable any unwanted packages that come pre-installed / installed with your phone / tablet.
www.packagedisabler.com

Dex and bixby & knox bloat that could do without

Theirs like 4 facebooks apps also that disabled

List disable stuff

Napetime took of cause redundant and not needed

The didabler package is one using

Yes

Excuse me, I´m totally new to the package disabling and I´m really looking forward to get it working on my new S21 Ultra. Could somebody please take some time, and explain to me what does it do and if the apps will still work even after disabling? (For example the bixby voice wakeup was disabled as seen in the screenshot, will my phone be able to get awaken via Bixby if it is disabled?)
Secondly I´d like to ask you if there is some sort of "best" list of packages to disable. I really want to maximize the battery life and performance of my device since it´ll be my inevitable workstation for couple of months.
Kind regards!

It didn't work for me, the message "operation not supported" shows whenever I try to disable a package.
In the end I removed everything bixby related manually through adb.

Sorry been busy with daughter and cutting and back.Give me hour show you guys how use it.Do you guys have root or not.Two ways to do it

I use package disabler root.But they also have adb method as well

i want to delete samsung calendar, will it generate errors?

[Q] Disable/remove specific system apps: What's New/Google Settings (No root)

Hey everyone. Just signed up so hopefully this is the right sub-forum for this question.
Amazing forum by the way. I've been visiting here frequently since getting my Z3 Compact and you guys have been a massive help so far. You've really helped to improve the functionality of my device and streamline the software so thank you. Now on to the question I want to ask. I recently installed Wondershare Mobile Go. The application was a huge help in removing certain apps (basically all the bloatware that Sony's stock Android firmware comes with). In addition to that I used the disable trick to disable most of the apps thus hiding them from the app drawer. As a result my phone is almost complete in terms of getting it to the point where I want it (only the apps I want to use; everything else rendered either disabled, hidden or uninstalled).
I recently however hit a roadblock. The apps I'm having trouble with are predominantly What's New, Google Settings and also an app called Downloads. I can't seem to uninstall or disable those apps. They're the only three remaining that I want removed or hidden from the app drawer. Now I've already researched this on the XDA forums and have already tried the ADB trick. I tried that last night and it made no difference. I used the Hide command (as I'm running Android 5.0.2) and it had no effect. I must have rebooted my phone four or five times running the commands each time and What's New just would not shift. I know the fastest and easiest way around this is to just root my phone and manually uninstall the software but I only just got my Z3 Compact and I really don't want to void the warranty.
Is there an easy mechanism in which to hide, disable or uninstall the three aforementioned apps? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Package Disabler - App Lists

Hello All,
I got my Note 8 the other day and want to get some apps disabled. I got Package Disabler working just fine, but want to know what people are freezing on their devices.
I know on my S8+ I froze a TON of apps and processes, but on the Note 8, I want to keep a few functions such as samsung pay/android paid, bixby and perhaps a few more, but just wanted to see who's doing what.
I started my own list of the apps on the Note8 using Package Disabler but then switched to BK Disabler since I couldn't get PK working after I downloaded their paid plugin.
I still have to load up the Bloatware and System apps listed and then will start removing stuff. But I know that I'll keep Samsung Pay, Air Command etc. Not sure about Bixby. I still haven't tried it out to fully decide if I want to keep using it or not.
Yeah this is my first carrier branded phone in years an my first Sammy so I would appreciate a list of things that can be disabled....
Well, part of the problem is different carriers have different bloat, so maybe include carrier in your list.
Go ing to try tthis o it.

Package Disabler Pro experience and comment on their authenticity

After 2 weeks of attempts to make it work, after several emails sent to the PoliceDeveloper team, here is my conclusion. This product is malicious or doesn't work.
Notice: I do not work for Samsung nor I've ever worked for PoliceDeveloper. I have no interest at all posting this except warning the next users. I'm simply a guy a bit pissed off by Samsung bloatwares.
Maybe my experience could bring some additional answers to a certain post reported on reddit and named: package_disabler_question.
This app is weird for several reasons explained below:
The developer team doesn't support you. The process is well documented nowhere, even in their emails, really absolutely nowhere. Apparently it doesn't work and when you show them the proof that you are dealing with an installation issue, they don't dare to reply, they simply ignore you or reply with an automated template. Truly disrespectful when you trusted them buying the app on the store.
Their website seems to refer to wrong versions only (based from my own experience). From the Google store, versions sometime work, sometime they doesn't. It was mentioned somewhere (app itself or their website) that you have to install a "PDP engine". When it's done, it still doesn't work, you write to the team and at that moment they state by email you don't need to use it anymore. So why is there a PDP engine to install at the very begining?? And the strangest thing is you don't know at all which tool is doing what, because nothing is explained anywhere.
The tool needs an internet connection, but you don't know what is it for? You guess, seeing what happens on your screen, that Knox validate the license. But is it even a genuine popup? I asked to the team what was this connection requirement for. Strange, after this email, silence from the team until the date I'm sharing my experience here.
Now if it was only about some painful installation and comunication with the dev team, I would only rank it with 3 or 4 stars, complimenting them for the great work. But there is much annoying, the tool maybe does not do what it pretends to do. When you achieve to install it and make it work after several emails, you want to disable some packages, they become indeed displayed in a disabled app list within PackageDisabler, good! But when you check the Android built-in task manager, nothing is in the Android disabled app list. I tried to run one of the recently disabled package and the app can't start. So does it do the job or does it make you think it does... I'm not an Android specialits so I simply asked about this to the team, not a single answer.
They state Samsung is trying to block their app. They just explain that maybe in the purpose to work under the radar sending you an apk by email, and of course you have to give Admin permission to that app. So is it even true Samsung is fighting them? And if it was true, why? You will tell me because they want to protect their juicy bloatware apps. Based on my experience, I'm begining to think maybe Samsung simply tries to protect their platform end users from that app...
I asked for a reimbursement. Yes even for 2$, it doesn't work on my Galaxy S9 so help me or give me my money back. No answer from PoliceDeveloper...
So I let you make your own judgement about all of these.
In my opinion, when you buy an app and ask for what the app needs/does, or simply why it seems not to do what the developer claims, you should get your answers. Otherwise there is something sleazy.
Note: Galaxy S9 Duos - Exynos here...
No problems here. I've been using it for some time and the only problem I've ever had was a minor one that was fixed with a new update.

I actually bought package disabler pro from the play store couple days ago (s9) and it has worked fine. I found it actually helpful on reading details on apps installed. Giving it admin permission does bother me, but its permanent.

I would guess that for it to interact with other apps or system services it would need admin.
Works fine here on exynos s9 after update. Had bought the original app and they gave me a voucher for the new one.
It works for me but it does look hacky. It acts as a device administrator, like what a corporation might give you as a condition of using the LAN. It can not modify or uninstall apps but it can refuse their use. I would have returned my S9+ if not for this app. Samsung ads were constantly popping up even after two days of trying to get rid of them. The phone was unusable until the bloat was disabled.

It's just a UI for the adb uninstall commands, but backs them up so you can restore them, even the uninstall adb commands don't really uninstall them, you need root for that
working just fine for me, responsive developer (email them and give me the serial number from previous apps.), and no malicious problem here. all green
What apps are recommended to uninstall?
I'm checking now and I can hardly believe how much crap came with this phone. No wonder I couldn't get it to work before. Essentially, I disabled anything that was:
- Running in the background or using data even though I don't use it
- Popping up advertisements (all Samsung apps)
- Location spyware like weather apps and dynamic keyguards
- Bixby everything
- No chance of being needed (this will vary greatly by person)
Briefing, Yelp, Knox Enrollment Service, Galaxy Essentials Service, Galaxy Essentials Widget, Samsung Keyboard, Weather, Samsung Internet, Samsung Billing, SystemUIBixby, Samsung+, Secure your stuff, Secure Folder, Sports, Finance, Bixy Vision, Samsung Themes, Samsung Pay Framework, Samsung Cloud, Autofill with Samsung Pass, Samsung Pass, Samsung Experience Service, Keyguard Wallpaper Updator, Gear VR Service, Game Tools, Game Launcher, Find My Mobile, Secure Wi-Fi, Email, SmartThings, BixyVision Framework, Voice wake-up, Samsung voice input, Bixby Service, Bixby Global Action, Bixby Voice Stub, Bixy Voice, Smart Things, com.samsung.android.app.watch.managerstub, Bixby Home, AirCommandManager, Samsung account, KnoxVpnPacProcessor, Google VR Services, Google, Gmail, Facebook App Installer, Facebook Services, Facebook App Manager, Game Optimizing Service, Dictionary, CNN for Edge Panel
To the op: it needs internet for two reasons. To connect with knox servers to allow the app to do what it does, that's Samsung's requirement. And to verify the license for the actual app, to prevent piracy.
And for why it's not working... You didn't really describe what's happening, so we can't help you... But i mean, a lot of people have a great experience with PDP for samsung devices... I can only assume its user error... Maybe you refuse to Grant it permissions, have a device that's restricted with knox by your employer, or you're rooted (or were)...
Pretty good list.

Kinda surprised it still worked after partially disabling the service that makes it possible (knox)... No doubt you're getting some extra cpu drain from the errors that's causing, run a log cat, guarantee you've got a lot errors happening.
And for the Samsung Experience Service, you must be using a third party launcher, because that's essentially touchwiz.
As for Google, don't quite see the benefit of disabling that. It's where google assistant is, and hardly does anything at all in the background.
Otherwise, great list.
Tip for everyone, after disabling apps, run a logcat (google "adb log cat" or download the cat log app) and just look for the words "error", "warning", "failed, "doesn't exist", and "found"... The more time you see any of those, more than likely that means more resources wasted because of missing packages. (Services call on other services, and they tend to cause tantrums when they don't get a response)... Probably a good idea to also do it before disabling anything, to establish a baseline.
I disabled the annoying app that kept asking me to sign up for Knox services. I don't think there's any means to disable Knox itself since it's part of the bootloader. There are plenty of errors spewing in logcat but they all appear to be sloppy code rather than any specific problem.
Nova Launcher Prime replaces Samsung Experience.
Google Search is disabled because I'm not using the search bar and it seems to pre-fetch a LOT in the background. I'm not a fan of Google cross-linking everything in inappropriate ways so I'm not using their apps.
MailDroid Pro replaces Email and GMail.
I noticed that Google now spams your phone's GMail account asking you to use Google apps. There's no opt-out, of course.

Any diference with AdHell 3 when disabling the apps? I'm using AdHell (is free), but I'd like to know if the uninstallation performed by PD is deeper.

Well right on, you've got your replacement apps. I couldn't do that personally (even before i got hooked on Google Assistant).
And you can turn off a LOT of the pre-fetching, and the cross linking that the Google app and others do, but of course there will always be some (web and app activity in google account. Others in the google app, like contacts, calendar, call logs, sms, etc)
I'd be interested to know how your battery life compares, because while the Google apps can be... Busy... They do their business in pretty light-weight ways.

best debloat app for pixel 4 XL

I used ccswe app to debloat apps and close unnecessary apps to preserve battery on my note 10 plus. Is there an alternative for that app for the pixel 4xl?
Adb commands are absolutely too complicated and I use a Mac so that combo isn't ideal. If anyone knows of a simple alternative, suggestions are greatly appreciated.
I honestly don't know what there is to debloat on a pixel. Anything you don't want can easily be disabled. No extra apps are necessary. Sure Samsung needs the extra apps for that but pixels...no way.

Fair enough, however I've disabled all I could manually yet even the disabled apps when updated show up on my applications so I have to re-disable them again. So I'm hoping there's an app that can permanently disable apps regardless of updating them. Also I'd like to disable certain services with guarantee and the CCSwe app for some reason provided reassurance when disabling apps and Services. Which is why I'm looking to debloat a bit more

YouTube music for example or pixel live wallpapers. I want them disabled so that when an update arrives at the Play store I can update them freely without them being automatically re-inabled. This is totally doable on my note 10 plus. So I'm curious if there's a way to do it on pixel. Or even Google auto. I'm legally blind and not allowed to drive so that app is useless for me.

I actually have them disabled and I don't get updates from the playstore unless I re-enable them. I've noticed upon clean flash when I disable apps they do an automatic update and re-enable themselves, but when I clear the data and disable they stay disabled and no updates come through. You don't need extra apps to disable anything in a pixel. Save yourself the headache man.

thanks for the advice man I really appreciate it maybe I just might save myself the headache. What did you do the clear the data? Cuz I manually restricted its background usage prevented it from using data in the background cleared cache and cleared storage before force closing the app and then disabling. Am o missing anything? Cuz those specific disabled apps still show up as updates on my play store. Which is what I'm trying to remove. If I update them they will just re-install.
I have Chrome disabled because I use Chrome Beta and it never asks me to update. As you can see, update isn't an option in the Play Store. Maybe try disabling all the apps you want, restart, and check the Play Store?

If they are system apps, then you will have to root to remove them. If they aren't system apps, then you should have the option to uninstall them.
If they are system apps and you don't want to root, then your only option is to disable them. No app is going to be able to remove them without root privileges.

The system can't be modified so the apps can't be removed even if you're rooted.
If you are rooted, you can install the Debloater Magisk module (support thread - https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-terminal-debloater-debloat-t3584163)
This still works under Android 10. I just now uninstalled the Chrome app using the module (on my Pixel 3a XL on the November security update).
After installing the module using the Magisk Manager App, here are the steps to remove a system app:
1) Open a terminal app and type "su" to get root privileges.
2) Type "debloat"
3) Most likely you need to choose menu option "4 - System Process App", but if you don't see the desired app listed under this selection, try some of the other menu selections.
4 ) If the app you want to uninstall is listed, simply type in the number of the app you want to uninstall.
5) Confirm that you want to uninstall the app
6) After the process finishes, reboot the phone .
That should really uninstall the system app - even under Android 10's new file system.
Edit - here is a screen shot of the Play store showing that Chrome isn't installed and can be installed. Edit 2 - for some reason the image doesn't show, but you can click on it to be taken directly to imgur to see it.

The tip / advice I really do appreciate it. However I am not rooted sadly and seems to me that in order to get the most out of my 4XL, sadly I'll need to root my device.
Unfortunately routing seems exponentially tedious and I don't want to have to constantly flash my device per every update. Plus if I root I wouldn't be getting any updates as scheduled. I love to maximize the full potential ofmy device but I'm not familiar with routing and I have the impression that once my device is rooted, it's not a one and done deal I'm always going to have to flash ROMs constantly which seems like an exponential amount of extra work. Which sucks ?

Well if you just want to root to remove bloat, then you don't need to worry about retaining root when taking updates. Just go back to taking updates normally without all the extra work. You'll lose root, but that won't bring back the apps you removed. They will be permanently removed.
(However, never re-lock your bootloader without going back to 100% stock - which would bring back the bloat - because you can brick your phone if there are issues moving forward).
if you are rooted magisk debloater =)

thank you for the advice I really appreciate it. Man there is a lot of benefits with rooting specifically with the custom g cam app that allows up to 20 x zoom and the viper4android mod on top of other modifications like theming and substratum. it would be ideal for me to use any and all of those I would love to get the maximum potential of my pixel 4 XL specifically for the camera but it seems like a lot of legwork. I'm tempted to just pay somebody to route it bearing that they could do it successfully but it seems like routing isn't as easy either. But thank you for the suggestion I appreciate it. I'll just be patient and trust that my disabling of those apps have permanently disabled them.

Disabling apps does seem to work as expected. I had disabled Chrome for months now (because I use Brave) and it never "activated" itself or showed up in the app drawer, etc. However, it was nice to be able to permanently remove it using Debloater.
As far as rooting....... it really isn't that hard. I have created a detailed walk though on how to root on the Pixel 3a forum - but the steps are exactly the same for the Pixel 4s. It not only gives instructions on how to root, but also on how to take updates in the future as well. Be sure to check it out and post in that thread if you have any questions. https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-3a/how-to/how-to-root-pixel-3a-preferred-t3938783

Hello @uzumakinaruto69
just a small suggestion. You might receive more replies if you switch your system language to English prior to taking screenshots. However, and don't get me wrong it's not against the forum rules to provide non-English screenshots; I just want you to get the best support you deserve.
Stay safe and stay healthy!
Regards
Oswald Boelcke
Sorry I'm trying to think about it next time
