You can do that compeltely with root, by erasing the file from your root folder, or you can hide the app via adb and without root. In both case the app won't show up, but if you reset your phone the app will come back if you used the adb method.
Every apps can't be uninstalled/hiden without troubles. Some apps are necessary to your phone, but if you're talking about preinstalled facebook or something like that then no problem.
If you're not sure tell me what app you want to remove, I'll tell you if it's cool or not.
Here's an article on how to do it with adb:

Can't removed bloatware after rooting

Hi guys,
I rooted my phone yesterday. This all went very well, the icon in my programlist is there but now...
I tried to remove some preinstalled programs with (an older version of) Root Explorer. When I push the button ' remount as R/W' nothing happends. So now I still can't remove any program from my phone?
Who has got the solution?!
Thanks!

If you don't have a current licensed version of root explorer, it may not work.
You could try Titanium. I use that to both delete apps and freeze them. On stock ROM, I generally only freeze them so OTA updates will still come through.
Try this app, works for me
Root Uninstaller
I can remove every app I want with Titanium Backup
Enable USB Debug mode
you can also freeze apps via adb.
just do
adb shell
pm list packages
pm disable com.app.App
where com.app.app is the program you'd like to disable

To delete AT&T pre-installed program

Hi, does anyone know how to permanently delete pre-installed AT&T softwares from Vivid?
I am able to root it temporarily by following the instruction here and delete the pre-installed softwares through RootExplorer and SysAppRemover. However, once it is rebooted and lost temp root, the softwares are back automatically.
You just answered your own question. Without perm root we are not able to do much of anything yet
Edit: not trying to be rude, just frustrated with our situation

While you cannot permanently delete the pre-installed AT&T APPs and widgets, you can permanently disable or freeze them using the temporary root.
The APPs and widgets remain disabled even through the full reboot, including a battery pull.
See my post here for the detailed instructions with which to disable common bloatware.
Thanks, I will be able to edit the bat file and keep the app I want.

rooted. now what? how to remove bloatware?

Hi,
I have the lg optimus l90.
I used the towelroot app to root the phone. i used a terminal app to verify that i do have root. when the app opened, it displayed a $ sign but when i typed "su" and pressed enter it gave me a "#" prompt. so am i rooted?
also i was told to install the superSU app. why do i need this? can't i just uninstall the bloatware right now since i am rooted?
I installed the superSU app but it was not able to install the su binary because i did not reboot the phone after using towelroot. I uninstalled the SuperSU app. anyhow, what do I need to do now to remove those bloatware apps. there is no option to uninstall in the apps section of the android settings application.
finally, I read somewhere that i should use nobloat app to uninstall the bloatware but it is not uninstalling the bloatware. I uninstalled it.
so what do I do now?
any help would be much appreciated.
thanks.
Superuser is needed for apps to have root rights to your phone. Install superuser. Reboot phone and open app. Reboot again if needed. Rooting is useless without superuser installed

Along with root and SuperSU, you will also need a root App manager or root file manager. I personally prefer to use ES File Explorer as it is both an application manager ( user and system ) as well as an awesome file manager.
There is no list of acceptable system apps to remove. So be very careful as to what you uninstall or you may endup with a soft bricked phone or one that spazzes out whenever it feels like it. I would recommend making backups of any app you want to remove before uninstalling it. At least you might be able to restore them if something goes wrong.

thank you both for the replies.
so what exactly is SuperSU for? when I opened it up I saw nothing in the apps list and I did not see anything else in the other lists within the app. also, I did not restart the phone before trying to update the su files and when I did restart the phone nothing updated. So, do I use something like ES file explorer to remove bloatware?
by the way, when I tried to surf the web after installing superSU app, the web browser was extremely slow. the webpages loaded very slowly but when after I uninstalled the superSU app, it was loading the pages fast again as normal. what's up with that?
thanks.

SuperSU is a binary executable that grants or denies superuser requests. Without it root is worthless.
You won't see anything in SuperSU permission list until an app asks for superuser permissions. When first opening the SuperSU app you should get prompted to update/install the su binary. Allow that action to happen.

That's because the su binary was never updated.

so in order to run something like the nobloat app I need to grant it permission to be a superuser? I never had to do anything like that when I ran the nobloat app and It actually worked. It still does not make sense to me what supersu is used for.
That's because the su binary was never updated.

I ran the towelroot app and it was successful. However, I did not reboot the phone before attempting to update the su binary and the superSU app said i should restart before updating. I restarted the phone but it never updated the su binary when I ran the superSU app again. What do I do now?
thanks.

Convert user app to system app without root (Or with root but then unroot)

Hello guys! I've been an android user since 2011. I have experience in rooting and unrooting some of my devices but with this phone, P10, I don't want to have root for personal reasons.
There are some personal apps that I need to convert as a system app though.
So does anybody know how to convert a user app to a system app without root? Or root -> convert apps to system app -> unroot.
Most of the guides here about unrooting seems to be flashing to stock.
I have also seen (through searching) threads about moving user apps to system apps and those actually don't answer my question.
If anyone could help me, I would be very grateful!
Thanks!
You could convert most applications to system using Titanium Backup with ease, you will need root, there is no way to write to system without it. You could unroot after it, and uninstall TiB, still, I don't get why you would want to do that, but it's doable.

I'd like some apps to be installed as a system app but I don't want root as some bank apps don't play well with them.
So which method of root should I use so that I can unroot and still have my apps as a system app?
Magisk released version 16 specifically to support Huawei devices and our issues. You can pass safety net with it and hide su to damaged applications with it.
On the other hand, not sure if I would trust an Bank which puts the security on the client side as prerequisite to operate.
Do Banks require to their Windows clients not to have administrator user? No, right? (in fact, Windows OS needs a local admin account to operate). As clients we should request equal treatment. Administrator in Windows is as dangerous as root in Linux, so Banks should be honest and stop bothering clients, instead of us having to hide from them...

ADB Bloatware Removal

If i remove all Bixby Apps or other unncessary apps via ADB Method will it mess with the system?
Yes it will they are system apps for a reason. You can try deleting the system apps that you know you really don't need. Be carefull any wrong app removed and your phone will not work properly and you will need to flash the rom again.
