Hi all,
after updating to 47.1.A.8.49 my XZ1 compact (german firmware, retail) keeps on consuming like 8% battery on RCS.
I already disabled VoLTE and Wifi-Calling but it did not help.
I read that normally there should be an option to deactivate Rich Communication in the Messages App, but I can't find any there.
(I know it should help to deactivate/deinstall the Messages App, but I would like to keep receiving SMS, I only do not need the "chat" feature of RCS.)
Anyone knows how I can deactivate RCS?
best wishes

If you have ADB set up on your laptop/desktop it would be easy.
ADB Shell
pm list packages ?
pm uninstall --user 0 "package name goes here"
Sorry, I am not at home with my machine in front of me, so I can't tell you what the package name is.
I also have had big battery drain since the 8.49 update. If you're in the uninstalling mood, removing 'home network' made a difference to battery life, as did removing 'Find My Device' from admin apps.
To remove home network, look for a package called 'com.sony.android.dnla', or something similar, sorry not in front of my machine to check.
RCS isn't actually the problem. It's a bug in Oreo. Android System is sometimes showing up as RCS or Phone in the battery stats or monitoring apps. So disabling RCS won't actually help you.
@Didgesteve
Thanks for your post. As I do not use "find my device" I removed it after your post. I don't really know if it got the battery usage better, but well.. I didn't use it before, so why keep it in admin apps
Do I really need to remove the dnla package to save battery? (It's deactivated anyway in my settings)
@jrbmed08
Thank you, too. I once thought I have seen exactly this: After a reboot the x% usage were shown as Android System; after 1-2min it said RCS.

I don't think there's any one thing that will miraculously change your battery usage, it's the unwritten scripture that drives all us modders and obsessive fiddlers to keep trying to improve.
But if you are into tweaking for the better, the new Google Play services beta did seems to make a small difference.
Download from APK mirror and update.

I did some digging with your tip about RCS. When I first got this phone I was getting almost 4 days on one charge (I'm not a heavy user), but I thought it was a bit strange that since November I have had much worse battery. I put it down to the new firmware, perhaps 8.49 was much more thirsty. Aparently, since November, Google have activated RCSService, I keep seeing this coming up my battery usage charts, next to Carrier Service, using more battery than bluetooth and I do 2 hours of bluetooth music a day. I never saw it before, suddenly it's on all the time, using batrery and data.
Turning on the 'background data only' makes no difference, likewise 'background activity'
So the intention here is to stop and disable carrier services and disable RCSService (it's impossible to stop or uninstall).
adb shell
pm disable --user 13 com.gsm.service.rcs
pm disable --user 13 com.google.ims
pm disable --user 13 com.android.service.ims.rcsservice
pm disable --user 13 com.android.ims.rscmanager
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.qualcomm.qti.uceShimService
To find which is your elevated user
pm list users
and pick the higher user number
The offending package is called com.qualcomm.qti.uceshimservice.
My battery usage has never been so good, I've gone from 2 days to almost 4.
But, there are consequences, I don't get a 'delivered' notice on my SMS anymore and perhaps this rolls over to other messanger apps. I've tested Whatsapp and Telegram, eveything apears to be ok.
I might be doing something awful to the messanger and it would be great if someone could tell me what I've done, but so far I can live with it if I get my amazing battery back.
It could be to undo disabling the services you need to factory reset your phone, just sayin.
Edit: my fault if you were having problems copy/pasting these as I had not put a space inbetween User & 13. I have corrected it now, so copy/paste should work.
Sorry, I can not tell you what you did there, but what I can tell you is that on my device none of these packages exist (yes my id is also 13):
1|G8441:/ $ pm disable --user13 com.gsm.service.rcs
Error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown package: com.gsm.service.rcs
1|G8441:/ $ pm disable --user13 com.google.ims
Error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown package: com.google.ims
1|G8441:/ $ pm disable --user13 com.android.service.ims.rcsservice
Error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown package: com.android.service.ims.rcsservice
1|G8441:/ $ pm disable --user13 com.android.ims.rscmanager
Error: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown package: com.android.ims.rscmanager
The qualcomm package exists, but as you said: No way to disable it...
package:com.qualcomm.qti.uceShimService
There is also a
package:com.google.android.ims
there, but like the qualcomm one, you can not disable this one, too.
My workaround at the moment is just to let the phone disable wifi in standby. This way I get like 4-5 days standby (+just a little bit usage).
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.qualcomm.qti.uceShimService
did the trick @Didgesteve
This is working for weeks now.

Hmm, it worked for me, each line comes back 'Package "package name" new state: disabled'
I'm not sure that user 13 necessarily exists on other phones. You have to see what number your elevated user is and use that.
I checked the users before I used the commands, my user has also id 13, nur even of I do not use this option the return message is the same...
@shaftenberg
If I would deinstall the package and would need it later, how would I reinstall it?

It won't let you uninstall, it's a system file. You need elevated access.

Are you using ADB shell from a command prompt on a PC, or an emulator on the phone?
Hi, I tested it too.
I got the same results as in #7.
I got my Packages with "pm list packages ?" copied it into notepad and searched for the rcs packages, found nothing.
This Package I haven't too: package:com.qualcomm.qti.uceShimService
The Result for "pm list users" is:
UserInfo{0:...:13} running
... shows my real name.
I'm using FW DE 8.49.
Best regards, mates.
@Didgesteve
I did my commands via ADB. It showed my user correctly and his ID.
Like Raz0Rfail I also copied the complete list into notepad and searched for the packages. Didn't find them there, too.
(Just the qualcomm one as mentioned. Also using FW DE 8.49)

Ahh okay, thanks
I thought I would need to download the install package or something like this. (Because uninstall would really "wipe" the package.)
Perhaps I need to check my spelling, but here is the results I got.
I did RCSService twice by mistake, but otherwise, they all show as disabled.
All,
You should be aware that the RCS and IMS services are required for VoLTE and VoWiFi.
So if you have disabled them, your VoLTE will not work.
I'll repeat my statement from here, that:
IMS is the "IP Multimedia Subsystem" and is used as the framework for telephony over IP based data connections. That's essentially what VoLTE is: VOIP for mobile phones.
I'll also note that RCS is the "Rich Communication Services" and is the successor to SMS and is essentially an extension of SMS and MMS as better described here.
So you're probably guaranteed to be breaking some advanced SMS/MMS features by disabling RCS services.
Yes, only I don't use VoLTE or VoWifi, and also my carrier does not really support RCS features... So in my case it's only extra battery usage for features I don't need or use

Yes @pbarrette , you're right. But I have looked into this. I'm not suggesting that everyone starts deleting random system files on their phone.
Carrier services was rolled out by Google to try and claw back some of the market share of the messaging market.
It theory it brings group messaging, bigger pictures, read receipts and of course emojis to SMS.
Google realised that they were losing to the likes of Whatsapp and Telegram, but as usual it's too little too late.
I don't use group SMS messaging. Group messaging belongs in Whatsapp, obviously. I don't use emojis in texts. If I lose read receipts to claim back 20% battery, then that's a hardship I'll suffer.
I'm not sure what happened to the November update of carrier services, but I'm not alone in noticing HUGE battery drain from an app that I didn't ask for and don't want.
I've explained their might be risks, but for me, removing these services has made no difference to my SMS use and my battery is lasting longer. I'm just saying it like it is.
[Guide] Vivo 1804 | Phone Setup | Mods & Tricks | Pro Setup
With the Vivo 1804 / Funtouch OS there is no search option in the settings so often finding the best settings is often difficult.
I recommend the below mods/tricks to set up this device before you start using this as your daily driver :good:
1. Full Screen Mode
Settings > Display & Brightness > Third Party app display ratio
Select all apps like video players, YouTube etc to make the most of your screen (By default they don't go full screen)
2. Set Default App Settings
Settings > More Settings > Permission Settings > Default App Settings
Select your preferred apps as default apps
3. Gestures
Settings > Smart Motion > Smart Turn on/off screen
4. Smart Click
Settings > Smart Click > Turn on/off flashlight
5. Flash Light Notification (Optional)
Settings > More Settings > Flash Light Notifications
6. How to take a Screenshot
Vol Down + Power or Three finger swipe
7. Disable System Apps via ADB:
The device does shave some bloatware which i was unable to uninstall without root access, thus i used the ADB commands to disable those apps and stop them from running in the background.
You need to enable USB Debugging before you proceed further, to do so:
Settings > More Settings > About Phone > Click on Software Version 7 Times to enable Developer Options
Go Back and scroll to the bottom under More Settings you will find Developer Options
Developer Options > Enable USB Debugging, and continue if you wish to disable system apps/bloatware :good:
I uninstalled the following as per my personal taste:
1. Default Launcher | Package Name: 'com.bbk.launcher2'
I use Nova as my preferred launcher so i removed the default launcher. You can still keep both if you want to and mark Nova as default. Make sure if you install any third party launcher before your remove the default launcher :good:
2. Vivo Browser | Package Name: 'com.vivo.browser'
I prefer Chrome over the stock browser so removed it
3. Vivo Email: | Package Name: 'com.vivo.email'
Prefer Gmail over any other email client so removed it
4. YouTube: | Package Name: 'com.google.android.youtube'
I use YouTube Vanced instead of stock Youtube due to adds and it offers a non rooted version which can simply be installed as an apk.
Find the latest version here & MicroG to be installed for login.
Follow the XDA Thread
5. Google Music | Package Name: 'com.google.android.music'
I use Poweramp as my preferred music player and Apple music as online streaming player so removed it
6. Play Movies | Package Name: 'com.google.android.videos'
Use Netflix / Amazon Video as preferred movie player so removed it
7. Touchpal Keyboard | Package Name: 'com.emoji.keyboard.touchpal.vivo'
Use SwiftKey as my preferred keyboard since many years so removed the default keyboard.

PS: A Factory Reset will restore all disabled/uninstalled apps so there is no need to worry if you mess it up :laugh:
I shall keep adding more tips as i get more time with this device :fingers-crossed:
Thank you for your time :highfive:
Tips, Tricks & Hidden Settings (Updated 10 Oct 2018)
1. Allow Apps to AutoStart & Run in the Background
Funtouch OS Kills most apps in the background in order to achieve better battery life and you would often find yourself missing notifications from your apps like whatsapp, telegram, instagram, twitter etc. You have to allow them to Autostart & Whitelist them/Allow to run in the background if you want to receive timely notifications. To do so follow the below:
* Settings > More Settings > Permission Management > Autostart (Select your preferred apps)
* Settings > Battery > High Background Power Consumption > Select apps
Allow the apps to continue running in the background so keep receiving notifications instantly.
I recommend most social media apps and messenger apps like Whatsapp, Telegram, Instagram, Twitter along with your Widgets and any other applications that are important for you to keep active.
2. Install & Enable GSam Battery Monitor: For complete battery stats i recommend GSam Battery Monitor
You can enable the complete access via ADB
Code:
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.17134.286]

3. Remove the Developer Options Red Banner when activated | Credits to @ruk21201
Most of us like to tickle with the Developer options which can be activated under:
Settings > More Settings > About Phone > Click 7 times on Software Version > Back to More Settings > Scroll at the Bottom and you would now have Developer Options.
Now the moment you activate Developer Options there is a Red Banner Displayed on the Status bar which does not go away unless you close developer options. Thus to remove the Red banner follow the below:
Settings > More Settings > App Manager > More > Show System Processes > Scroll Down to Vivo Services > Storage > Clear Data
The Red Banner would now be gone and you are free to tickle around with the device.
*Upon restart the red banner would appear again so repeat the process whenever you restart.
Settings to be activated inside developer options:
1. Enable USB Debugging
2. Edit Animation Scale to 0.5 (Window, Transition & Animator) to make device feel more snappy.
3. Force Activities to be Resizable if you do a lot of multi tasking.

I have not come accross any twrp recovery image for V11 pro as its not supported by the official twrp project yet thus I don't think there is a way to root it as yet.
I've bought this device as a secondary device so I keep it locked on factory state to be able to do Ota's.
What issues are you facing to use it without root if you can elaborate as the stock device works well for me.

Hey buddy, although i am not in the favor of spoofing your location for games or any other reason but that's your personal preference.
You can try below:
1. Google Playstore > Settings > Do not auto update apps
2. Settings > More Settings > Accessibility > Turn off auto update for System apps.
3. Settings > Security & Privacy > More Security Settings > Device Manager > Deactivate Find My Device as Device Administrator
4. Settings > Security & Privacy > More Security Settings > Turn off Google Play Protect & Find My Device
5. Settings > More Settings > App Manager > Google Play Services > Clear Cache/Data & Uninstall Updates
6. Download & Install your preferred Play Services version from apk mirror for correct device architecture arm64
7. Reboot the device after installation
Let me know if that works :good:

HI sir,
Thank you for your answer. The thing is I've been using android for like 7years now..(en en though I am an IOS dev lol) And all my phones were rooted. I used to install some app that require root ( my favorite is SD maid pro). So I have a weird feeling when my device is not rooted..... (I don't know how to explain it... It's like you take away a baby's favorite activity /toy)
As far as my experience goes with the phone. I love the battery life, it's awesome and the OS is good (if you have time to tweak it a little bit, cause there is a lot of hidden options: An exemple will the the way to control the music player when the screen is off. There is an option for that hidden far in the settings under "smart motion - > smart wake" )
The launcher in the other hand sucks.... I didn't like it that much so I bought Nova launcher pro and I did set it up as my default launcher and tweaked it a lil bit. Now I'm feeling awesome.
As for the fingerprint, it's not accurate and fails because of the screen protector that came already placed on the device. I removed it and re-scanned all my fingers and it's really fast now
Multi-tasking is good but some important app gets killed fast. So you need to tweak again the battery settings so that some app do not get killed on the background
Ow eu.. I also bought the Find X from OPPO. And I must say that Vivo's Os is far better from the find X... The find X will drive you crazy...like for exemple to send a simple sms you need to create an account... Wtf.... It's just a waste of money,really had a bad experience.....
So yeah Vivo v11 pro is a good phone(1000times better than the find X) , if you have the time to search and tweak it cause the default settings sucks.
Is there any person I need to follow to keep up with a possible release of an twrp? (I mean if it is ever going to be released one day cause I'm loosing hope )

Hey buddy, thank you for your reply and good to see you around. I can understand the edge to root the device as i do the same with my android devices but i bought this device knowing that there is going to be no development and to be used as a secondary device only.

I agree on the battery life, SD660 works more efficiently than the flagships 835/845 for my testing and usage and thus better battery life and yes lot of settings are hidden which i've already shared on this thread. I always use Nova on all my setups so that's the first thing i install and restore my setup from the previous device.

For the Finger Print unlock you can club it with Face unlock to make it quick and it will wake up the screen. You can also club it with double tap to wake or raise to wake for the idle unlock when the sitting on the table or a flat surface. As far the app killing is concerned both Vivo/Oppo do it aggressively so as discussed on the thread you need to do the additional auto startup setting and allow high background power consumption in order to let the apps stay in the memory and receive timely notifications.

I felt the same for Find X when i got it and i returned the device within a week due to poor user experience.
Unfortunately the development is really bad when it comes Vivo/Oppo devices as they dont release the sources and neither give development devices away to the community to support development unlike OnePlus which actually does all this to its strength.
You can contact the official TWRP TeamWin over G+ and check for support if atall for this device. Dont expect much is what i can say at this point of time.
If you need the best development support i can recommend OnePlus/Pixel or even Poco F1 for that matter :good:
Ill see you around :highfive:

Thanks bro. I'll just be patient and wait, but you're right it's extremely unlikely that there will be a root for this device.. I was seduced by the phone's Beauty when I saw it at the store :angel: that's why I bought it.
And yes, for One Plus they had a really good business plan. I read an article on why they did succeed. And if I remember correctly "they asked the community what they wanted and how much the community was willing to pay for a good phone"... If I find the link I'll post it here..
See ya around bro

I know it all and I have attended lot of OnePlus events.
OnePlus is a community driven brand and that is one of the mean reasons of its success. OP6 is my primary device and I believe in the never settle philosophy

Hey buddy, although i am not in the favor of spoofing your location for games or any other reason but that's your personal preference.
You can try below:
1. Google Playstore > Settings > Do not auto update apps
2. Settings > More Settings > Accessibility > Turn off auto update for System apps.
3. Settings > Security & Privacy > More Security Settings > Device Manager > Deactivate Find My Device as Device Administrator
4. Settings > Security & Privacy > More Security Settings > Turn off Google Play Protect & Find My Device
5. Settings > More Settings > App Manager > Google Play Services > Clear Cache/Data & Uninstall Updates
6. Download & Install your preferred Play Services version from apk mirror for correct device architecture arm64
7. Reboot the device after installation
Let me know if that works :good:

It's just throwing message that app not installed at the last.. So u reached out to you.. Does this phone has root availability... That is the last resort I left..
Thanks

If you have developers options enabled, connect to PC with USB debugging enabled.
and type each line in CMD which CD to the platformtools/adb then press enter:
This is System Tracing which is automatically enabled when dev options is on.

Removing things like Facebook and just using your web browser will save you a lot on battery over a day.
Out of hte 4 items listed by the OP, I have only removed one, ZEN Mode. I found that made a big difference on its own to suggest that one specifically.
Other apps I have removed with ADB from my T-Mobile (SM1915) are:
net.oneplus.forums
net.oneplus.weather

It didn't find the last one but disabled the first 3 and idle usage went from 1-1.4% an hour to 0.5% an hour so far today. Good find and have to remember to do this after each update :good:
There is an application named package name viewer with that you can see the package name of an app you want to disable and use the name with this command to disable it

Because the display, when on, consumes so much more power than every other component and/or software in the phone, the SoT won't improve by anything noticeable disabling those things. :good:
Well, I got 9.5 hours SOT on first cycle and 11hrs on second cycle. Without disabling anything.

He I will try to advise you how to optimise and debloat your phone for better performance and battery as well as free of bloat device.
I have used this method over the years for my S10 | S10+ | S20+ | S20Ultra | S21Ultra | P40 |P40 Pro and OP8 Pro and many other phones. And works as expected.
Prerequisites:
#1. ADB AppControl
Which can be found here:
[TOOL] ADB AppControl 1.8.0 🚀 Ultimate App Manager & Debloat Tool + Tweaks
ADB AppControl 🚀 Root is not required. Works with any Android device. Can do almost everything you dreamed about with applications. ADB AppControl - the desktop program, that will allow you to easily manage applications on your android device...
forum.xda-developers.com
ADB AppControl - android applications manager and debloat tool. Official website. Free download.
Thanks to @Cyber.Cat for this application of for posting it.
#2. Windows computer or for MAC owners, Parallel Desktop to run Windows
#3. Android phone which you want to optimise
Steps for debloating bloatware:
#1. Download and install ADB AppControl from the above link
#2. Activate Developer Options: go to Settings >> About phone >> Software information >> tap 7 times on Build Number
#3. in Developer Options enable USB debugging mode
#4. Open ADB AppControl
#5. Connect your phone to your computer
#6. Allow USB connect message on your phone several times until ADB AppControl shows connect message on top
#7. Chose what applications you would like to disable or uninstall (i recommend you disable them not uninstall)
#8. From bootom right corner in ADB AppControl chose Disable option
#9. Check the box to delete cache and data [it is on top where you chosed Disable option at the previous step]
#10. Press Apply
#11. Confirm that you agree to disable the selected apps on the popup message which will appear
#12. Unplug your phone from the computer
#13. Shut down the phone
#14. Connect the phone again to your computer [being closed]
#15. Quick press Volume button + Volumne Up button until you see on your screen the logo
#16. Release the buttons
#17. Now you are into the phone recovery
#18. Chose the option to clear cache [NOT phone reset] with your power buttons
#19. Select the option to clear cache by presing the power button
#20. Chose restart phone
E voila.
There is no miracle bloatware list. It depends from phone to phone.
Being on a S21 series forum I will post what I debloated for my S21Ultra SM-G998B device.

with the above done I always get 6hrs+ of SoT and battery live of over 1day and 10hrs in a single charge with 120hz WHD+ resolution
Thanks for this method... I am using it with my S21 Ultra and works fine
So, Im trying to figure out a way to safely disable the Samsung Dialer. Ive already installed the google dialer but I broke the calls when i uninstalled it the first time. Im trying to figure out which package is the one to disable. Trying to remove as much Samsung as possible
Good to see this Debloat for the OnePlus, etc....
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!
If you are new to this and your device will be an inevitable workstation for a couple of months I would wait with the most crazy debloat.
You can only disable things you know of, if you disable bixby bixby wont work, at all.

Thank you very much!
Hello all, it has been sometime since I rooted my phone / removed all the extra crap lol.
Is there a way to know what each Items do?
I know in the past the roms would be debloted and you had a stock rom and had the option to add what you wanted.
Thank you
Nice start with original post. I'm also looking for any further explanation or categorization of s21+ bloat please?
If uninstalled, can app be reinstalled manually from play store if desired later?
What phone is best for clean customizable ROM now?
Guessing Pixel series, but what else... OnePlus?
I've custom rom'd my s3 to s8, but now want to have Netflix working on my s21. Just don't want apps I never use taking up space and populating the share menu options, etc.

There are a couple of apk's who can drain battery if you deleted them.
I don't remember their name but if you debolat them the phone won't get into deep sleep....
But you can always double check if the phone enters deep sleep by installing CPU Spy from Play Store.
Just a little headsup on two packages you should NEVER disable!
Device Services (com.samsung.android.kgclient) - If you disable this, you will LOCK YOURSELF OUT of your phone (Error 3020). Chances are good to recover from this if you have TWRP installed or USB debugging always enabled. Otherwise a factory reset is the only solution. Nevertheless, this is a core component and WILL cause problems if disabled.
Device Security (com.samsung.android.sm.devicesecurity) - If you disable this, app installations will take significantly longer (about 5x). Not sure why, but better leave it.
In general, if you are not 100% sure what a package does, leave it! Even if someone on the internet says "I disabled it and had no problems"... There is a high possibility that you don't achieve optimization by disabling, but crippling your device and creating lots of errors in the background you don't know about (thus using more battery).
As far as I can tell, the list in the OP seems reasonable though.
@AllAboutTech Might be helpful for beginners if you add those 2 warnings to the OP.

You can always use ADB to re-enable apps, as long as you just disabled them (not uninstalled).
Connect to your phone via ADB and use the following command:
adb shell pm enable <package_name>
// Edit: I guess the ADB AppControl from the OP also allows to re-enable apps.
If you have uninstalled system apps, some of them might be re-installable via Play / Galaxy Store, but definitely not all.

That's strange. I always delete both of these without any poblems.
Device Security it's part of the Macfee antivirus thingy options.
I always get rid of because I think Play Protect does the job.
When I delete this all that's happens is that the Security Option is gone from Device Care Settings.
And I don't get those anyoing security notifications about enable it.
No problem with app install.
As for kgclient that's part of the Samsung Payment Service, I have never had any problems with deleting it.
That said, I have never used Samsung Pay.
Im on S21 Ultra european model unbranded right now.

Exynos, modell named SM-G998B/DS
Hey guys. I know no one asked. And I know there are 13,126 different threads across different sites for debloating your phone. Of course, none of those are universal, and none of them are tailored to the device in-question.
My device details : [NE2215 Android 13.1 - Oneplus update : EX01. This should be fine for the other models, and other update versions, but just wanted it to be understood that this is what I used, tested, and confirmed stable.
Here is my debloat thread. It breaks no core functions of the phone, but it may remove a niche thing or two that a very small percent of people use. I was not going to initially write anything up like this, I mostly do what I do for myself nowadays. I recently made a comment somewhere here showing the list of things I debloated. I will not be held responsible for any issues you may face, but I will tell you that I have run this phone with these packages removed with no issues, and only update this list after extensive testing to confirm no crashing or weirdness.
Also know, you can disable the update package (included in the .zip or 2nd preset). com.oplus.ota cannot be uninstalled, but it can be disabled. The other 2 packages that are relevant to updates are com.oplus.sau and com.oplus.romupdate, but these cannot be disabled or uninstalled.
Be advised - Always-On Display needs a TON of extra stuff which I personally do not like having enabled. Just know if you run my debloat thing, AOD won't work unless you restore the AOD dependencies. There is a spoiler at the bottom to try and help you get this back if you want. Not recommended.
On the latest 13.1 update (13.1.0.522(EX01)), OnePlus actually removed some of the bloat. So you will notice only like 130 or so from the 154 packages are "selected", but that is because a lot of the crap was removed from the system by OnePlus. I left the list with all the old stuff, just in case someone is on an older version. No harm to anyone either way.
In 13.1, they only added like 7 packages worth removing from whatever the last update was. Info on the packages in the spoiler "Info" below
Latest debloat. as of 6/17/23. No AOD as usual
There is a .bat file attached. Assuming you have ADB working, just have to double-click the .bat.
Alternatively, if you have or use ADB AppControl (basically ADB with a GUI and pretty icons) there is a .txt preset you can use. The same text can be used to "rebloat"/undo.
There is a "rebloat" batch file if you want to undo and restore everything. As usual, AOD (Always On Display) is debloated. There are instructions on how to re-enable AOD stuff, but it was a while back, and idk if still useful (OP version of AOD requires a TON of crap, be advised). But know I won't support AOD, sorry. Shouldn't be hard to fix if you read the instructions, maybe have to add/edit something, maybe not.
Below, is only a list of things removed, this is only informational, and my understanding of what those things are/do. If the section is blank, I either don't know and/or it isn't worth mentioning. This list is likely missing a few packages, but meh, nothing too major i imagine. You can compare the preset/batch file to check if/what something is missing. Currently, it tries to remove up to 154 packages (if installed). Or just ask if you have a question on a specific package.

net.oneplus.weather
Oneplus weather service. Battery draining potential. Better altnernatives with google. This is needed for AOD to work fully.
changes in 13.1 EX01 (as of 6/17/23) :
newly-added and left enabled :
net.oneplus.widget oneplus widgets (clock)
com.android.remoteprovisioner likely related to the new google thing for internal key exchange and secure services. maybe their new front for "passwordless" everything idk. left it because seems it may be needed (if not now, maybe in the future)
com.oplus.metis for oneplus screen mirroring (like to show your phone on a nearby TV). i left it it bc idk how well it works, doesnt seem too intrusive
newly-added and removed
com.coloros.relax new app sounds and "games" to relax. probably what they referred to as "Zen"
com.oplus.eid 90% sure it is related for service in china. not applicable to us
com.oplus.melody oneplus headphones app (only for the oneplus brand)
com.qti.dcf not exactly sure, but likely some sort of un-needed qualcomm telemetry
com.oplus.nas OnePlus "Network Assistant". lol nope.gif
AOD will not work. This is not a bug/glitch, AOD was removed on purpose. Read all the way below to restore AOD functionality (not recommended).
Now, these apps are not actually uninstalled. The APK resides within /system somehwere, and it is not possible to remove files from SAR without breaking the OS. So instead, these are uninstalled from the user profile. Most phones only have 1 user account. Most people do not share with other people like a PC that use multiple users. In addition, I choose to use the user uninstall instead of disable because disabled packages can actually run without you knowing. Not to mention via updates or other methods, a disabled app can be re-enabled.
The apps if you choose to remove them, can actually be re-added, since they are not actually deleted. For example, if I wanted to restore the oneplus file manager, the command would be adb shell pm install-existing com.oneplus.filemanager .Simply change the package name [from the list above] you want to re-install. Let me know if anyone has any questions or concerns.
Also, I highly recommend everyone go into Developer Options, and enable the setting that says "Disable Permission Monitoring". I am not going to turn this into a "tune-up your phone thread", but I strongly advise that one thing.
Important : I do not recommend removing this package : com.oplus.athena. Removing Athena breaks the "close all" button, it also screws up some actual memory management which can lead to the system freezing and you have to force turn it off with button combo. ( I do not touch it in the script )
Notable Mention : com.oplus.eyeprotect --removing this breaks the special color modes (brilliant vibrant, cinematic). doesnt actually change colorations. ( I do not touch it in the script )
AOD =
Below you will find the commands to try enable AOD and all its dependencies (it is a LOT of crap just for AOD. There is a way to have only stock android AOD, but it's not worth it for me.) [also, there may be new things needed as of new updates, i haven't kept up with this and will no longer support it]
Here are the things you need to restore if you want AOD. Keep in mind, I restored ALL functions for ALL things related to AOD. This pretty much makes the debloat useless, because the services used are atrocious (deepthinker, cosa, and smartengine. plus the weather services). If you really want to restore AOD and all its features you need this :
Spoiler: Restore AOD Functions only

I'll find it. Didn't realize it was disabled, since I left the OnePlus aod package. Ty for reporting.
Give me a few mins. likely com.android.dreams.basic

I found it on my phone under Wallpapers & Style > Always-On Display (large button on the right). BUT, it does not work without "Intelligent Services" (the phone asks you to enable that service once you try to apply an AOD effect). "Intelligent Services" is a no-go for me, but I will make sure to put a disclaimer about AOD. Why it's tied to "Intelligent Services", I couldn't tell you. I get it has to check online for things, and I can understand it needs background gathering capabilities, but it is too intrusive.
Intelligent Services, Portrait, daydreams, omoji, android intelligent services, and more are needed to get it fully working. Idk why oppo/op tied it to so many things. , but its a bit much for my taste. Below you will find script to enable AOD and all its dependencies (it is a LOT of crap just for AOD. There is a way to have only stock android AOD, but it's not worth it for me to put the trouble into it.)

OMG, I better do without the AOD anyway, I never really liked the notification system of this aod haha
would you have a more conservative DEBLOAT?
Thanks a lot! Worked good on OP9Pro with A13 Open Beta 1. No side issues to report yet.
I did notice that while on idle, connection request made to "tracking domains" were lowered (using ControlD DNS). I will monitor standby battery consumption in the coming days. Thanks again!
(There is a way to have only stock android AOD, but it's not worth it for me) Could you teach me how to have the stock android aod system?

You would have to enable the android services disabled for the full AOD remove. Then you have to figure out which items, likely oplus AOD, to enable for the settings to appear.
how to uninstall the intelgent service? will it damage the phone? in the application management there is a function to stop, after the acquisition, the current consumption from the battery drops, and after a few seconds it rises again to 350-400mA.

.Run the adb commands to debloat all the things including intelligent services. It will not damage anything on the phone. And if you want to, you can undo the process
Ran through a bunch of these.. Left a few like photos (I use the unlimited back up, I posted the mod the other day)
The telemetry in this phone is so bad.
Hoping with my already tweaked system I can get some more out of it. Will let you know buddy
I don't seem to have stats rolling through but my SOT has gone through the roof..
Some of this telemetry crap is a hog.. I had a list of apps I used yesterday, but they're gone today.
Here's my battery screen, I'll grab GSAM and get clearer stats today, I've been using my phone normally, calls, camera, Whatsapp, telegram, Amazon, browsing, no games.
10+ hours with 21% left lol.. This is more like it..
I'd recommend everyone running through these debloats.

That´s insane. I have moreless the same usage as you, as weel as the standby time and got 4h30min sot with 20 % left.
Also I´m on 9 Pro with a slight smaller battery, but still!
dladz said:
Eu não pareço ter estatísticas rolando, mas meu SOT passou pelo telhado ..
Algumas dessas porcarias de telemetria são uma porcaria. Eu tinha uma lista de aplicativos que usei ontem, mas eles sumiram hoje.
Aqui está a tela da minha bateria, vou pegar o GSAM e obter estatísticas mais claras hoje, estou usando meu telefone normalmente, chamadas, câmera, Whatsapp, telegrama, Amazon, navegação, sem jogos.
Mais de 10 horas com 21% restantes lol .. Isso é mais parecido com isso ..
Eu recomendo a todos que passem por esses debloats.

Almost all of them, didn't do photos, just use your head. If it seems important then kill it.
Even removing just the tracking apps should be enough.. for crying out loud they even included media Tek software lol we use SDragon

Can you tell me where did you post the mod for the unlimited photos storage?
I´m very interested.

Here in the 10 pro section.. Would you like it?
Here you go.
Flash in magisk and enjoy unlimited back up.
Hello @dladz
Question 1 : Past 3 Days I Notice , When i charged my phone ie.100% after few mins its drop 2% in idle why there's no app running in background
Question 2 : If i use your Debloat method should i get 7 or 8 SOT.
Question 3 : After used your Debloat method if any OTA system update came , shall i update or i cant system update.
Thank You.

1. it's more then likely apps, follow my tips at the end of this message.
2. That depends, apps is the main cause for concern, again follow my tips.
3. You should always be using oxygen updater to obtain full firmwares... This sentiment is doubled if you're rooted.
Tips:
Change 5G to 4G
Remove tiktok is 100% dodgy Chinese spyware.
Remove Facebook use web based
Remove Facebook messenger use web based
Remove Twitter use web based
Remove any ad based apps pay for the pro version
Turn off gestures like lift to wake
Change from QHD to FHD (No difference)
Allow auto brightness
Turn off WiFi overnight
Turn all updates to manual not auto (play store)
Remove any so you don't use
Change back up to once a month (WhatsApp)
Turn off location history (Google)
Use titanium to remove any system apps you don't need
Don't allow anonymous usage statistics for any app ever.
Don't allow tracking cookies on any website
Use adaway (root needed)
Don't open web pages in Google app (I use Samsung browser)
Don't use xposed.
If you game you will not get high SOT scores, period.
Don't bother with battery saving apps or monitoring apps.
Streamline your apps, if you don't use it, remove it.
Don't allow WiFi scanning (as in letting other apps use it when it's not on)
Never allow personalised ads.
Never allow notifications from websites
Always decline cookies unless your absolutely have to allow some tracking (common sense prevails here)
Optimise as many apps as possible unless it affects performance.
Don't allow apps to remain open in the notification area.
Change your launcher, my preferred launcher is lawn chair and this did actually burn up some battery when compared to the OnePlus launcher.
Don't use live widgets (yes they look cool, but they annihilate your battery)
Live wallpaper, again very cool, but battery burners.
Again! Don't charge overnight, make a note of your percentage then see what it is in the morning, you shouldn't be losing more than 5% really, if you've done well then it'll be reflected here, the good SOT results will follow.
Turn off live read outs of network speed, RAM usage in the status bar.
Turn off NFC unless in use.
Leave location on in quick settings.
Don't overcharge your phone, IE: overnight
Don't allow your phone to fully deplete the battery.
Whatever anyone says, this does 100% damage batteries, there is no argument here and I won't entertain anyone who says otherwise, Ive seen through real life tests what this results in, bloated, inefficient, possibly dangerous lithium batteries.
Keep your phone out the sun.
Keep it out of extreme cold.
Keep your device clean dust free.
Snapchat, Viber, house party, apps like that tends to use more battery as they don't have great dormancy periods.
Apps like speed test by Ookla tend to have location tracking, similarly they tend to turn themselves on and off when they feel like it, my advice, install test and uninstall.
Allow a couple of battery cycles between tweaking sets, to give you an idea of how much of a difference you've made.
Use BBS to see what is being used, once you've removed problems, remove BBS.
I've just written this from the top of my head so o probably missed some things, the general idea is to keep your device clean and fresh, remove files you don't need any more.
Keep an eye on apps that misbehave or aren't wanted, index your folders so they aren't a mess.
The more good things you do means the more potentially bad apps you can have on your phone, eg if you really need Facebook, you could keep it so long as you clean up other areas of your phone.
Good luck.
