Ok to freeze

Here's a titanium backup "clipboard copy" of files that were okay to freeze for me. Got most of these files from another thread. So, simply, you would copy the files list below and then you would go into Titanium Backup and create a label for a filter. edit that label and then "import from clipboard" and then you will have a list of files that you can freeze. edit the list as you like. made it simpler with TB rather than tracking down each file. I would freeze the files first and then what you might need back just unfreeze. And then finally delete them.
Edit: don't freeze or delete the launchers if you don't have a third party launcher going. The fingerprint sensor had some issues at first and had to use the Backup Password but then it fixed itself and worked again after giving it a couple minutes. I also rebooted as to ensure that there were no issues which there were not.

There are a few APK's here that you probably don't want to freeze as you'll see force closes potentially. Especially with SetupWizard on reboots. I also think it's interesting that you chose to freeze com.sec.modem.settings.

Details
I thought it'd be nice to know what each of them were, I do use some of Verizon's stuff, like their messaging app that would be nice to keep.

Agreed. It would be a big help. thanks.

Everything frozen in that list I have now deleted ( I backed up my phone of course) and my phone works just fine with reboots and all services as far as I know at least.

In titanium backup it will tell you what the app is once you do the clipboard copy and then go to the list

Touch Wiz Errors
I disabled most of the items on this list. Had to unfreeze all due to TW errors and it force closing. Rebooted and it was still occurring consistently.

Try nova launcher. More features than touchwiz

So what exactly do you gain by deleting all those files? :silly:
Maybe a few MB of space on a partition that isn't used for any new applications anyway?
Does your battery now last several hours longer? :good:
Or is it just so that you "know" in the back of your mind that all sorts of "supposedly" useless stuff is no longer there?
Then when you want, or need an OTA you have to restore it all anyway?
I mean with the 128 GB version a few MB's isn't all that much.

After removing most of those files, I have noticed faster processing speeds and better battery life. I'm guessing it is more than just freeing up storage memory and more about getting rid of bloat that may be running in the background.

Storage is no concern of mine since what you mention is correct. it is the processes running in the background and such and who knows all the memory those files are taking up.

Remove Youtube APP?

Hi Folks,
Is there a way to remove system applications (not just disable) like YouTube?

You need root for that. It's impossible to uninstall a system app without root. For now, disabling is your only option on certain apps like youtube.

Yeah i seen the video on xda's yt channel. Honestly i dont find it that much great if you're constantly having to factory reset and doing everything from scratch again but you are right. Not calling you wrong or anything just imo not really an effective thing.

Youtube app auto reenabled

Hi.
Recently i have tried add another language under Setting > General management > Language and input > Language.
Some apps start update their language including the default Youtube app ( which i disabled, because i use Youtube vanced).
Now that i removed the added language (now it is English only, just like before) but youtube app keep auto reenable itself and there is a notification about the phone is updating language for youtube. I tried disable youtube app again but this keeps happening about once a day.
Can someone help me out?

Follow instructions to keep apps you want and everything will be fine.

What was my mistake? I deleted some Google apps using «adb» tools and...

Hey, everyone! I really want to know what I did wrong.
1. I used «adb» tools to delete some apps from Google and Xiaomi, and
then I got a kind of brick.
2. Redmi 9 Lancelot (with MIUI 12) was rebooting in a loop into
Redmi-Recovery-3.0. So I selected the option of “wipe data” and start
configuring again the phone.
3. The deleted apps were these ones:
com.google.android.apps.messaging
com.google.android.contacts
com.google.android.dialer
com.google.android.apps.turbo
com.google.android.onetimeinitializer
com.android.vending
com.google.android.gms

com.miui.face
com.fingerprints.sensortesttool
com.android.stk
android.autoinstalls.config.Xiaomi.lancelot
com.android.apps.tag
The only sign of error that I saw before the brick of my phone, was
“FindDevice no found”, so I guess the main problem was deleting
«com.xiaomi.finddevice».
But I'm asking in here, because I want to know if I should'nt delete
other apps of this list.
Thanks for your help in advance!

com.xiaomi.finddevice is the problem, yes. Also be careful with com.xiaomi.account, you must to be logged out from xiaomi acc if you planning to delete that one.
And com.google.android.gms is Google Play Services, if you delete that one you will lose possibility to send SMS. Don't ask me how I know that .
And istall third party programs before you unistall com.google.android.dialer and com.google.android.contacts
Here you can find some list of what is safe to unistall
Removing all unnecessary bloatware from Xiaomi MIUI 11/12 (Android 9/10) without root
TLDR: If you just want the list of bloatware app package names for Xiaomi MIUI - scroll to the end of the artice.

Thank you very much for the detailed answer!
I didn't open any Xiaomi account in the device, but nice to know.
Well, now I'm curious, but I guess you did it in your phone and experience the problem with SMS.
Yeah, I installed F-Droid apps for contacts, dialer and SMS. But I'm still awkward of letting installed Play Services...
I will check the link. Thanks again!

Sorry for my ignorance, but I'm not quite sure that I understand what it means “chains version”... Do you mean a custom ROM?
I read that Redmi 9 hasn't any custom ROM de-Googled that fully works.

He means China version. The Chinese version of MiUi does not have Google apps, play services ect.

In the first place, why did you delete those apps? You should have wait for 12.5 as it will allows you to remove some apps
