Hello wonderful people. I am in quite the pickle and I hope that you can offer some help.
I have been uninstalling bloatware on my brand new phone that arrived today, using the command 'adb uninstall --user 0 <package name>'. Here is a list of the packages I uninstalled:
Code:
com.amazon.mShop.android.shopping
com.s.antivirus
com.facebook.services
com.android.chrome
com.spotify.music
com.facebook.katana
com.sonymobile.xperialounge.services
com.android.providers.userdictionary
com.facebook.appmanager
com.kobobooks.android
com.amazon.kindle
com.facebook.system

com.sonymobile.moviecreator.rmm
com.sonymobile.advancedlogging
com.sonymobile.music.wikipediaplugin
com.sonymobile.music.googlelyricsplugin
com.sonymobile.support
com.sonyericsson.trackid.res.overlay_305

com.sonyericsson.music
com.sony.tvsideview.videoph
com.sonymobile.assist
com.sonyericsson.xhs
com.google.android.apps.docs
com.google.android.videos
Now the settings app crashes when it is opened. The phone is encrypted by default. I cannot do a factory reset in the settings app, and fastboot won't touch the encrypted partitions. There is no recovery partition.
I reinstalled the last few packages using APKs from the web. I used the command 'adb install -r <package name>'. ADB said this was successful, but the apps cannot be launched and their icons do not show up on the phone. Settings still crashes.
Please help me out. Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks
Have you tried performing a factory reset by logging into your google account on the web and using Android Device Manager's erase data function?

Good suggestion. Unfortunately, Find My Device is turned off. I cannot turn it on because that would require the settings app. Any other ideas?

1] Are you sure it's off? Mine was on by default, I think. At least, it's on and I don't remember enabling it.
2] Do a clean re-flash using either Xperia Companion or XperiFirm+newflasher (with all .ta files).
A clean reflash with wipe should do it.
With XC, you should even be able to do a backup before you flash.

Thank you. Step 2 solved the problem! I used the 'Software repair' option in Xperia Companion. It wiped the user data and did a factory reset.
I feel like com.sonymobile.support is the source of your issues.
The support thing is the last item of the settings app.
It being gone must have made settings unhappy.
Plus, why would you want to get rid of the support app? Isn't it in charge of OTA updates?
I just came across this thread after Googling a similar issue. On my Note 8 I removed the Facebook packages and now have bootloops and am struggling to get back into the phone.
Hello Friends,
When I was on MIUI 11, I had removed Mi apps like Mi pay, Mi video, Poco launcher, Mi browser and Mi music by adb. Now I have updated to latest MIUI 12 but I am not able to remove Mi calendar, Mi browser via adb. I get an error message, "failure [-1000]". Why is it happening and how I can remove the bloatware?
Hi Friends,
I am using MIUI 12.0.2.0 China stable ROM on my K20 Pro & I removed all the bloatwares apps included in this rom. For removings apps I use XiaomiADBFastbootTools.jar .I suggest you download this tool & install JDK (java development kit) for the removal process. I am very haappy with this tool. I also use it on XIAOMI.EU rom.
I hope your problem will be solved with this great tool.
On global rom the tool cannot remove these apps, no idea why not.

You try this tool on global ROM?
i try that tool on global miui 12 and it cant remove that apps.
But on latest beta orange fox recovery exist option to remove system apps. didnt try as i change miui 12 global to Xiaomi.eu weekly and tool can remove that apps.
so global stable cant remove and xiaomi.eu weekly can remove
I tried with both Szaki's tool and OrangeFox Recovery tool, none of them work.
I confirm that following apps can't be removed on Global (12.0.1) MIUI 12
Code:
com.mi.android.globalminusscreen
com.mi.globalbrowser
com.xiaomi.calendar
com.miui.player
com.miui.videoplayer
com.miui.weather2
Following error occurs when I try to uninstall any of these apps:
Code:
pm uninstall --user 0 com.mi.android.globalminusscreen
Failure [-1000]
I removed it

MIUI custom ROMs are not in question.
You allways can remove these sh*t apps on a custom ROM or, if can't be removed by "pm uninstall" command, you can remove by recovery.
The question is to remove these apps from unrooted and unlocked MIUI 12 global

I understand, but the answer is that we cant from miui 12 global. My phone is unlocked and i had magisk. and miui global stable, removing that apps is not possible with that debloater tool or commands. Didnt try other metods. but with debloater tools as sakis, it doesnt work.

The smallest ADB package for PC that is enough for ADB is Minimal ADB and Fastboot (find a thread on XDA)
According to your error, it was the following ADB command that failed:
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 <pkg-name>
Try instead the other ADB command:
adb shell pm disable-user <pkg-name>
Where <pkg-name> stands for:
com.mi.android.globalminusscreen com.mi.globalbrowser
...
or package name for any other system app you want to disable - use AppInspector from Playstore to read package names corresponding to the apps
I'm not using any windows command but the adb shell command to access the device then exec pm uninstall command.
I also confirm that I've tried also pm disable and pm disable-user and both fails to remove/disable the related apps

By AppInspector, find the system or data folder and apk name where the corresponding app is installed
By using TWRP (root not required) or e.g. MiXPlorer (root required), go to that folder and rename <app-name>.apk to <app-name>.bak and reboot
If you disabled a critical app causing e.g. a boot failure, use TWRP and rename bak file back to the original apk extension
To use twrp root isn't required but bootloader unlocked.
My bootloader is locked

Thanks a ton!! The MIUI browser (com.mi.globalbrowser) had been bothering me for quite some time, and because of you I was able to get rid of it! Thanks!
I can also confirm that using the disable function works on both the browser and calender apps, you can't uninstall but it will accept disable - problem solved

Btw, there is not much difference in disabling and 'uninstalling' - i.e., don't think that
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 <pkg-name>
would really remove the package from your system
It only uninstalls for the current user 0 - but the app is still available on the system for user 999
And the opposite command:
adb shell cmd package install-existing <pkg-name>
would reinstall it (for user 0), hence package was not really deleted from the system (to save some MBs or so)
---
The only differences between disabling and uninstalling (both make it for user 0) are
- Disabled apps are still visible in Settings, Apps and some of them can be re-enabled by click from there.
Playstore will show you an update of disabled app and if you want to prevent its automatic update (and re-enabling) you have to disable its auto-update in Playstore.
Similarly for System apps updater from Xiaomi (disable auto-updating and when it offers to update an app you have disabled, click to ignore the update)
- 'Uninstalled' ones are not visible in Settings, Apps. If you want to 're-install' them you have to remember what you have 'uninstalled'' and their package names.
Playstore and System apps updater will not bother you about their updates
Thanks, but this is just with the ADBFastbootTools.jar and the uninstall option failed for the new Mi Browser and Calender, but the disable option worked. Both are annoying bloatware that can't be fully removed without root, so this is the next best option.

Tired of all the pre-installed applications that come with your new phone. Most of them tend to be useless and some tend to be on annoying side with push notifications and battery drains.
One way to get rid of all these intruders is to root your device and delete them using some application or manual purge. Not everyone is comfortable with rooting and it's risks. Also, rooting is not an option on many phones coz of limited support from the developer community. Does that mean one has to learn to live with the bloat?
Thankfully, No. You can get rid of them with the use of ADB (Android Debugging Bridge). The method is safer than manual purge and would not break any system variables, allowing to keep accepting OTAs w/o any issues.
Let's Debloat your Phone.
Note: This method works on every OEM rom as well as custom rom without root access.
Requirements:
Android Platform Tools
Prerequisites:
Disable "App Vault", "Swipe up for google", "Wallpaper Carousel", "Find Device", "Mi Sync"(Don't confuse Mi Sync and Google Sync though)
Follow the steps carefully :
Initial Setup
1. Go to About Phone in Settings.
2. Tap on MIUI version/Build version until it shows You're now a developer. It might ask for password in some cases.
3. Go to Settings>Additional Settings>Developer Options or Settings>System>Developer Options.
4. Enable USB Debugging, Install via USB, USB Debugging(Security Settings). Accept all the prompts thrown.
Note: Most ROMs will only have USB Debugging toggle.
Note: On MIUI, the above step requires an MI Account.
Main Process
Connect your device to the PC now. Recommend using a good quality USB cable for this.
1. Extract the platform tools zip. Navigate to the folder.
2. Shift+Right click and select open command window here.
3. Type adb devices
4. Grant authorization on your phone.
5. Type adb devices again and ensure that it shows your device as connected and authorized.
Note: If your device doesn't show up, you might need to install latest USB drivers for your phone. It usually happens automatically if you have an updated OS. If that's not the case, use this and install the USB drivers.
6. Type adb shell.
7. Type
Code:
pm list packages | grep 'mi'
Here mi is a keyword. You can replace it with whatever you want. This command would return all packages which have the phrase mi in their name.
Type
Code:
pm list packages
for complete list of installed packages.
8. Type
Code:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 <package-name>
Replace the <package-name> with the package you want to remove. The names can be obtained from the list command in the previous step.
Tip: Package name can be found in app list. Just tap on the small 'i' icon on the top right corner of each app page on MIUI. On custom roms, it's usually given at the bottom.
Tip : If you can't see all apps. Tap on the three dots in the top corner on "Manage Apps" page and tap "Show All Apps". SImilarly on custom roms, it can be achieved by selecting "Show System Apps".
I'm not going to cover all the OEMs or Custom Roms. The process is similar across all OEMs and Custom Roms. Packages that are safe to remove on MIUI are given below:

Conclusion
This is not a complete list. You can remove anything that you find annoying using these commands. Just replace the package name with the package you wish to remove.
However, removing some apps could cause issues. Stay away from MI Account, Security and Google Services related apps. If you accidentally remove something and end up experiencing crashes, please follow the following steps.
Type
Code:
adb shell
.
Type
Code:
cmd package install-existing <name-of-package>
Replace <name-of-package> with the name of the package to be restored.
Note : The method doesn't delete the application. It only changes the permissions of each package and hides it in the system. A Factory Reset, OTA update or a Reinstall would restore the application. Also, if you create a new user, he would have access to the removed applications.

It's personal choice. The tool does the same thing. This is for people who want to do it manually without a tool.
Also that tool is specific to the xiaomi devices to an extent. You can use this on any android smartphone. This doesn't have java dependencies as well.

You can't remove an app completely from the system without root access. If you have a second user, you have to remove it for other users as well.
And I haven't mentioned find find device anywhere.
Great, debloated here. Missed play music only.

Well if you're have root, and can mount system as rw. You could use some root explorer and remove the apk's and there folder. But doing this prevents the ability for OTA update because now the system is changed.
The space saved by doing this is so tiny, you will never notice it.

Very nice thread.
FYI, I have been doing this on stock ROMs for long time. It's nice to see a listed description.
FYI, with this adb method , your debloated apps will remain gone after an OTA update. At least for me they do.

Well if you are concerned about the app data being left. Just run the command as in the . OP bit leave the "-k" off. This part of the command is (keep) , it keeps the user data on device. If you run the command without the -k, then it does not keep data.

Try running adb root and use the uninstall command on the package without the flags. Since you're rooted, it might just remove app + data.

What problems are related to miui gallery removal? Please tell me I don't want to search over whole xda. It is probably bootloop too but I am not sure (hint from some github page).
---------- Post added at 11:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 AM ----------
If I get it it to bootloop by debloating, Can I fix it by adb? I know that I can reinstall app back by adb. I don't have root and twrp so far. Does it respond to adb during this bootloop?

If you get bootloop from adb app uninstall, you will not get to use adb. Factory reset from recovery will undo the changes.
As for the gallery apk. I had removed it and was no longer able to save any photos, from any camera. I was not able to delete files from device either. The gallery app is somehow forced into needed for /sdcard file permissions. You can set it to "adb hide". If you don't want to see it

[GUIDE][venus|star|mars] How to install Xiaomi.eu ROM for Xiaomi MI11 / Pro / Ultra
Flash from China rom Miui 12.5 , first time was stuck at fastboot, the solution is press Power button + Volume Up to format data, flash 21.1.20 again and success !
xiaomi.eu
2. Swiping only works with system launcher, not with Nova, not with poco
3. Search apk in APK mirror?

1. Thank you , will read it.
2. To bad because I use Nova and apply Viral custom icon theme pack , which makes phone just so much better , and all the other gudies which Nova has. Guess I will just wait for some future update to solve this.
3. Yes I tried , downloaded latest apk (xiaomi miui org) and it doesn't work. Yes because must be device specific and couldn't find Mi11 dialer to download .... Which sucks ! Just love the piano dials!
Thank you

I wrote email to Nova and I got instant reply:
"Hello,
Thank you for contacting Nova Launcher support. Below is a lot of information that we encourage you to read completely as it will answer your questions or other questions you might have related to the full system gestures in Android 10, Android 11 and going forward.
PLEASE READ THIS EMAIL IN FULL!
Home/Default Launcher Constantly Being Reset
If you are experiencing issues with Nova not staying as the default launcher on Android 10 or Android 11, these first steps are for you specifically.
If you are having issues with Nova staying as your default launcher, try this: Reboot your device. Or you can try Phone Settings -> Apps -> Default Apps -> Home App -> Nova Launcher. You might need to do this several times and reboot several times for this to fix the issue.
This is a very well known issue on Samsung and other devices, but specifically with new updates directly from Samsung starting as early as December 1st, 2020.
If this doesn't fix your issue, then you need to contact Samsung directly as the issue is on their end, with their update and has nothing to do with Nova or any other launcher, as this issue will happen in all 3rd party launchers.
The issue above isn't just for Samsung users, though the issue happens on every Samsung device that's gotten an update since December 1st, 2020.
Everything mentioned below is still present with the release of Android 11 on September 8th, 2020. Google has made it very clear that they have no plans to completely fix gesture-related issues any time in the near or even distant future.
Please take note that Google admits to this being broken on their end of things and that a fix will be coming in a future update to Android (stated March 2019).
However, it's now well over a year later and there are still many issues with full system gestures and 3rd party launchers on both Android 10 and Android 11. These issues will remain for the foreseeable future as Google have now made it clear that they have no plans to completely fix their full system gestures.
Notable issues with gestures on third party launchers include, but not limited to:
Close all/Clear app button not appearing(scroll all the way to verify it's not there)
Not being able to tap icons for a short time after returning to the home screen
Animations not being as fluid as expected
Screen blinks
Home screen icons blink
Home screen refreshes
Please understand, there is absolutely NOTHING WE CAN DO TO FIX OR CHANGE THIS IN ANY WAY! Contact Google or your device OEM directly with these issues as we have absolutely no control over it whatsoever.
Samsung Users
Samsung has allowed full system gestures to be used within 3rd party launchers with their One UI 2.5 update. This means you can now enable and use gestures, but there are still several issues regarding animations and the like.
As stated, there is nothing that Nova (or indeed any other 3rd party launcher) can do about this and it is ultimately up to Google and OEMs to fix navigation gestures.
Google's statement and Nova's statement
Google: https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2019/07/android-q-beta-5-update.html
Nova: https://help.teslacoilapps.com/faq/gesture-navigation
Enabling Gestures
As of the December 2019 Security Patch from Google, you can now enable full system gestures within 3rd party launchers on Pixel devices. However, the caveat of this is that you are likely to experience the issues mentioned above. To reiterate, this is still all up to Google to fix at some point in the future and to get things working 100% the way everyone expects them to be.
If and when you experience issues with gestures on 3rd party launchers, we highly recommend you contact Google and not Nova Support because, as we have said, there is absolutely nothing we can do to fix Google's problems.
Devices From Other Manufacturers
As some members in this Discord have noticed, some devices from certain manufacturers provide a reasonably usable experience with gestures. In particular, OnePlus devices on Oxygen OS 10 and above behave reasonably well with gestures.
This is because OnePlus (and other manufacturers) are using their own implementation of gestures rather than Google's which means that you might not get all of the issues referenced above. However, just like before, we (Nova) have no control over these and any issues you do experience should be brought up with the manufacturer and not us.
Action Launcher's False Claims
Action Launcher made an announcement back in late December 2019 which is completely misleading. When stating that they support system gestures, They are referring to the back swipe edit zones and other features within the app not interfering with Android's own system gestures.
As stated before, full system gestures are completely controlled by Android and are not something a launcher can just suddenly add support for or change in any way. When using gestures with Action Launcher, you'll quickly notice that the experience has just as many issues as it does with Nova or any other 3rd party launcher, reiterating the point that it is not something that any third party launcher can change or improve."
If I understood this correctly its MIUI problem...
1. Stereo upper speaker stoped working today.
Had this issue on Chinese rom and it happened again on Global. Is anyone experiencing this? It start working again after restart and calls...
2. Anyone know how to change haptic for the fingerprint unlock? It is disaster. If it can be switched off just for fingerprint unlock that would be the best! Or some tweak to vibrate differently?
[Update! 2. Solved] Haptic for fingerprint unlock on 12.5 rom is completely different in a better way. And so are the fingerprint animations
Hello, I don't know if this will be the best thread to ask my question, but I think so.
I just bought a XIAOMI MI11 (I had always had Samsung) and I am very happy except for the dialer: I don't like the Google dialer or the contacts at all.
I know I have several ways to fix it:
1. Rotating the mobile and installing the apps manually.
2. Installing the ROM xiaomi.eu
But both methods imply loss of warranty, and I am not attracted to the idea of losing the warranty of a high-end terminal with only a few weeks.
Is there any way to do it WITHOUT LOSING THE WARRANTY?
I can think of two ways, but I don't know if they are possible:
1. Would it be possible to install a Stock ROM that has these apps? Maybe the Indian version?
2. Could I root the phone, install the apps and then unroot it? I know you have to unlock the bootloader, could I lock it again?
Doing this leave a mark? Samsung, for example, activates a bit that showed a yellow warning triangle every time the mobile software had been modified, and it was never removed again. Here is the same thing happening or is it reversible?
Thanks for the help, if it is not possible, I will try to get used to the idea, but it is sad to have a high-end phone and not being comfortable with some apps ...
Bootloader Unlocking does not Void Warranty of Xiaomi and Redmi Devices - Gizmochina
Xiaomi smartphones are popular in the developer community, thanks to the company’s policy regarding warranty against unlocking of bootloader. But the brand has now updated its policy. Thankfully, bootloader unlocks still does not void warranty of Xiaomi and Redmi devices but with some caveats...

You don't loose your warranty so don't worry.
For now you can not download dialer apk and install it manually on global rom, believe me I have tried it , like you I am hating google dialer and contacts. But the rom is stable and that works for me. We just need to wait for some developer to make MIUI dialer work on global rom.
{CORRECTION} - You can install EU rom which has MIUI dialer and when you flash it just click on the option "clean all and lock" and the phone will have locked bootloader with new software. - {you don't install EU rom with xiaomi fastboot tool , you just click on the bat file and I don't think there is a option to lock}

There is no yellow markings or anything like that. So no worries.
Also you don't need to root your phone so you can install apps. And you can uninstall system apps with adb commands without rooting your device. Its very simple. Just google it.

Thank you very much, Asnamus, for amswering so quickly. I have a couple of doubts:
1. You said that I cannot install the apk manually (I have also tried it and X- closes) but that if we wait, a modified one will come out. However, I have searched and there is nothing similar for users of other terminals (mi9, mi10 ...). Do you think someone will adapt the app?
2. If I install XIAOMI.EU you say that I can check the option "clean all and lock", what program is it in, with XiaoMiTool? Would that close the bootloader and unroot them? But the manufacturer would still know that it is not an original rom and it would affect the warranty, right? And is it updated via OTA?
3. Finally, you said that I can install and uninstall apps without being root with ADB commands, but I have read that if you uninstall the apps, you should brick the phone, is there a risk with the dialer app or with messages? Have you tried doing it? I found this guide (sorry, it's in Spanish) https://c.mi.com/oc/thread-3292740-1-0.html?mobile=no but it shows a list of safe apps to uninstall and the dialer doesn't appear among them. And it does not it seem to let me install from there.
Cheers and thank you again.
1. I sure hope so! If not maybe I will switch to EU rom just because of MIUI dialer.
2. Yes Xiaomi flash tool https://www.xiaomiflash.com
You return device to store where you bought it not to the manufacturer. Research more about that , "returning bricked phone with unlocked bootloader ." For example. I have never returned so I don't know what will happen.
3. Yes I did uninstall lot of system apps also some that are not on the list. But I didn't wrote down which apps did I uninstall. You can go in to apps and select show all apps and scroll and click on app and you will have (i) in the top right corner, click on that and it will show you which app is it and than just google it is it safe. All this process require some problem solving and some skills, if you are not sure and never done it (installing rom and other) maybe its better you don't do it. I went through a lot of errors and stayed all night and half next day but on the end I successfully installed this global 12.0.3.0 rom.
Bricked devices is not dead and broken, everything is fixable. And you can do it by yourself you just need to have some skills and don't be afraid good luck
