Debloated the phone - Redmi K20 Pro / Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro Questions & Answe

I have debloated the phone and removed all the mi crap blus bloat ware. Now I need to unlock the bootloader but I can't seem to send a request because I've not registered my phone in the cloud. And I can't register now because the app is deleted.
Do we need to add device and account to unlock the device or can we unlock directly?
Do you have a way to install all the mi bloat ware again?

Without root, you can't uninstall boltware apps. Yes, you need mi account and all the mi apps to unlock bootloader.
Now, just reset your phone and all the system apps will be come back. After that, apply for mi account permission to unlock bootloader. After unlocking the bootloader and root the phone. Now, you can uninstall any system app with root uninstall app.

You can uninstall bloat ware with some adb command or mi adb tools.
If I factory reset, do you know for sure all the stock apps will come back?

@Phoenix854, I think it is some sort of media player.
@ OP, Try to remove it from the app tray, open the app menu from homescreen, slide out the menu from the left, click on uninstall, now tap on the app to remove it. See if this method works.

Then you could try using an app uninstaller off the play store. But if that doesn't work you can root (use towel root then install supersu) then using a file explorer with root privileges you can remove the apk from /data/app.
Or you could repair the software via PCC-as what your experiencing shouldn't be happening.

I would recommend repairing the software via PCC, to do that download Sony PC Companion from here and install it. Next connect your device via the micro usb cable to your computer then once the device is detected click on the 'your phone/tablet is up to date' (it is in blue font). Here you'll see a repair option click on it and proceed following the on screen instructions.
Note: you will loose all installed apps/data, because it completely cleans your device.
Rooting simply allows you to take full control of your device, you can root locked bootloader devices. To root, download and install towel root and supersu. Open towel root and root the device, then extract the supersu zip and install the supersu apk (it is in one of the folders). Open supersu, update the binary, reboot and your good to go.
Read this for things you can do after rooting.

Xiaomi lock app

Hello,
On my Xiaomi MI8 phone I have locked some apps since a long time and I unlock them with my fingerprint.
Few days ago, I installed Magisk Manager for passing Safety Check Check. I see all files are crypted in twrp. I removed the password on the lock screen and after that I see all files uncrypted in twrp.
I install Magisk from twrp, the flash brick the phone and I uninstall from twrp with Magisk-uninstaller-20190501.zip
That strange is after uninstall the phone boot well and pass the safetycheck (I can install Netlix from play strore now), but this is not the topic...
But after that when I click on a locked app, security ask me to unlock with gesture. Fingerprint doesn't work anymore. But I have forgotten my previous gesture... I set a new one but it doesn't work !
The phone is rooted with magisk even if I uninstall for unbrick the phone (I can su with adb shell), and I hope there is a way to remove the lock on the locked apps.
There is a way to do that ?
Note the phone is not linked to a Xiaomi account and I can't unlock by this way.
Thank you.

[warning] Do not disable Samsung Payment Services

So I was disabling (not uninstalled) a few apps I didn't use on my rooted S9 with Alexis ROM v1.7 (which was working extremely well).
I do not have Samsung account, and do not use S-Pay (or any payment apps). So I disabled Samsung payment Services" and phone immediately locked, and said "Phone Locked" on lock screen and "payment app was removed without authorization." I could not type in password, no options on lock screen. Tried to dirty re-install of Alexis Rom 1.7, no luck. Had to clean install rom. :/
That's why you should disable instead of removing apps.
what do you do? can you reflash stock rom with odin? or it became a brick?

Should be possible to re-enable via ADB then right?

No idea!
They said they fixed it by clean installing the rom.
Had the same problem. Fixed it by moving all Apps again to their place. Need to find out which of the Apps I'm not allowed to remove.
Samsung is really a pain in the ass!

Yeah, and boy do I wish I'd thought of that. I disabled Payment Services on a Galaxy A70 via Titanium Backup -- poof, instant total lockout. Instead of thinking smart (at least trying adb) I reinstalled the firmware, re-twrp'd, re-rooted, and then the whole setup and apps installs again.

Question Google backup

Hello, I want to root by phone, but in order to do that, I need to unlock the bootloader. My question is : Is a google backup sufficient to restore phone to his previous state ?
Thanks by advance
Google can backup your sms messages, call logs, contacts (if u've synced them with ur gmail account), device settings, app information, so you can reinstall the apps automatically when u sign in again on a new phone or a the same phone, but rooted or with a new custom rom, without having to manually search up the apps on the play store and install them individually one-by-one (keep in mind that apps u've installed from sources other than the play store will need to be manually installed again), and your photos and videos (if u've enabled backup in google photos).
i frequently use it for custom rom hopping and find it more than sufficient
There is an alternative for the apps from others sources?

I need to backup before unlock, because it's the unlocking process witch reset datas
And for the authenticators apps, is it possible to backup ?

My opinion:
Without unlocked bootloader you can't root. Without root you can't backup any app data or app settings.
Only backup of internal storage is possible if unrooted, means pictures, self stored files, downloads...
Some apps are able to make an own settings backup.
Google backup means naked apps, sms, contacts, some ui settings and wifi password.
That's it
The problem that you can't do a real backup without unlocked bootloader is the reason why I always unlock my smartphones before starting to really use it.
It is no problem not to root. Just unlock. All the other things are possible without data loss.
