Bixby - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Themes, Apps, and Mods

I just bought the new s10 note+. And I can't stand this Bixby assistant, is there any way to get rid of it and make Google the default?

You can uninstall bixby and link to Assistant app.
BIXBY
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.samsung.android.bixby.wakeup
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.samsung.android.app.spage
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.samsung.android.app.routines
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.samsung.android.bixby.service
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.samsung.android.visionintelligence
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.samsung.android.bixby.agent
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.samsung.android.bixby.agent.dummy
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.samsung.android.bixbyvision.framework
USING ADB COMMANDS ABOVE INTO ADB TOOL ON A PC
LINK Assistant app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.googleassistant&hl=en IN SIDEKEY
OR LEAVE bixby there if you dont know ADB

Easiest would be to install an button re mapper app
eg
"Power Button Remapper for Note10 - sideActions" by XDA dev Jawomo .
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jamworks.sidekeybuttonremap
Post note
In short no root ,just follow his straight forward instruction to set up .

App
I put that app in and followed the instructions but the power button still brings up bixby

Did you already try to just re-map the side button in the stock settings?

No. Just this app

i don't know your complete device setup .
What you disable or what mods etc .
Anyway, i have Note 10+ ,stock firmware ,no root etc .
With my overall general setup, i don't see Bixby at all .
Only enabled it once and thats it .
Bixby does not pop up or never has Bixby been a issue for me .
Anyway ,
just to give you a general idea of my device setup .
My power button , is set to...one press switch /restart device .
Two button press ,quick launch Camera .
My Google assistant is set to always on ( my preference ) so i can launch/call ,
Google assistant from inside any app /program ....anytime etc .
Works +_ 99% of time .
note ,Bixby is not disabled etc .
Bottom line
Be careful what system apps you freeze /uninstall or mod etc ..
You might get a knock on effect of errors
eg .. excessive battery drain , freezes ,unexpected reboots ...etc
Good luck

Does it works as in S10+? And how can I get it to work?

Icebox on FTVS V2 help

I'm trying to freeze apps without root on my Fire TV Sticks V2. I used icebox to accomplish this task flawlessly on my 4K sticks. I just can't seem to get it to work on the V2 sticks.
The V2 sticks are running latest software Fire OS 5.2.7.2 (648595120) and the Icebox version I have that worked on my 4k stick is version 3.15.5 beta.
All I had to do on the 4K stick to get it to work was choose simple ADB mode and then enter the ADB command using the app Remote ADB on my phone.
Code:
adb shell sh /sdcard/Android/data/com.catchingnow.icebox/files/start.sh
This doesn't seem work on V2 sticks.
Does anyone know how to get this working or a way to freeze apps without root on V2 sticks?

A factory reset will re-enable the apps and a OTA will enable them, but here is what i use and i block OTA's
https://www.xda-developers.com/disable-system-app-bloatware-android/
For example -
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.amazon.kindle.otter.oobe.forced.ota
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.amazon.device.software.ota
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.amazon.device.software.ota.override

I guess i never tried it on the tank... i can look into it when i get some time. But question, why don't you just root it so you can have access to all this? It really inst hard and gives you so many options.

And what apps are safe to disable? Can you share what you disabled? I don't use anything from Amazon besides prime video...

This might help as far as what is or isn't safe to disable if you find a way to actually disable them.

I decided to try ice box too...
I can install the app and I can even run the command to start the service. The console shows "success" and the app opens after I run the command.
But I can't select the "Simple ADB" option in ice box. I tried using the remote control, a keyboard and even a mouse... The radio button doesn't get "checked" and I can go to the next step.
Does that means the service is not actually running? Same thing for you or you're not even getting the "success" message for the adb command?

Anybody know how to read logcats?

So my phone has not been able to update anything on the galaxy app store ... I also cant install any watch faces or apps due to this. .. I am unrooted and have debloated apps via adb, I'm assuming I debloated something that breaks apps on the Samsung galaxy app store... So I took a logcat but don't know how to read it... Can anybody help me?

Post the list of apps you disabled via ADB, might be easier to work it out from them
I remember that from S10 onwards, disabling device security
com.samsung.android.sm.devicesecurity
Broke app installations for me, despite it never having been enabled as feature.
Also I would recommend getting an on device disabler (e.g. package disabled pro Samsung from police developer). It makes it all a lot easier.
I'm seeing a lot of entries for "Samsung Account" in the logcat, have you disabled anything to do with your Samsung Account?

Not that I remember... Had a huge problem with my Samsung account where I had to reset my device... I'm over the custom rom flashing and that's why I've left this one stock, so I wasn't really happy when I had to reset my phone to factory settings... Therefore I was sort of careful not to disable anything with the Samsung account

Try cleaning the data and cache of the galaxy store, see if it asks you to log back in again
Also see if everything works in Settings > Accounts and Backup > Accounts > Samsung account

That didn't work... Now I can't go into my Samsung account
EDIT: Device security was apparently disabled before doing this... I re-enableed it prior to trying this

Sounds like you have disabled something important to your Samsung account, which is what the Galaxy store needs access to in order to download apps
Unless you know what you disabled I'm not sure what you would do to fix it other than run the uninstall ADB command on all Samsung app package names, same way you disabled them
Either that or backup and reset
It's possible there is an adb command to see which apps you have disabled but I don't know it off-hand, maybe a dev or someone who knows more about ADB can help with that

OK this looks like it explains how to generate a list of all disabled apps
https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/56620/enable-and-disable-system-apps-via-adb
You should be able to fix it now if you enable either all of them again, or try one by one the likely suspects
adb shell pm list packages -d
Will list all disabled packages

I bought the "package disabler pro" app from the playstore and disabled apps... Phone worked fine for a cpl of days then all of a sudden I'm back to square 1, which is not being able to update anything on the Samsung store...

Custom Launcher on Tank

Ive followed the guide on how to install TWRP on my Firestick (Tank) and successfully rolled back to a pre-rooted version. I have installed Magisk, and blocked updates
Following this guide I have set my custom launcher to be the primary used, but they recommend running "pm disable com.amazon.tv.launcher"
After running this, my device works great. No issues with home buttons, or Amazons launcher taking over. However on restarting, I get 'rebuilding databases' or some such, 'please wait 10 minutes'. After this is finished, nothing happens. I reboot, it happens again. The bar stays on the screen and I have no access to any of my content.
I can ADB to my firestick at this point, but not before the bar fills, this tells me that the stick is waiting for something to run, and as soon as I enable com.amazon.tv.launcher everything is back up, I boot to Amazons launcher, then choose my own launcher via LaunchX. From then on, everything is as it should be.
I can reboot and go straight through my 'amazon' 'fireTVstick' logos and into the amazon launcher until my custom one takes over again. My home button uses my custom launcher. All good.
Long winded rant over. Now, did I miss something? This guide was from 5 years ago. Things may have changed. Is there some way to stop amazons tv launcher from being used at all? Save the RAM? Or is this just the way things are?
Thanks so much for coming along for this ride.
Disable both.
adb shell "su -c pm disable-user --user 0 com.amazon.tv.launcher"
adb shell "su -c pm disable-user --user 0 com.amazon.firehomestarter"
To access Settings use my root app.
Settings
That worked perfectly! Thank you very much. You have helped me breathe new life into this firestick.

Question Cannot uninstall Powergenie on my phone

Hi, ive been experiencing problems receiving notifications on my phone. After doing some research, i found the source of the problem to be from the powergenie application. Tried to uninstall it using ADB method but have been unable to do so as i keep getting an error message. Have also tried to disable it but that doesn't work either. Anyone has any suggestions or workarounds? Thanks in advance.
PS: I am a long time huawei user and have always been able to uninstall powergenie on all huawei phones i use but i cant do it on this phone for some reason.
HNLGE:/ $ pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.hihonor.powergenie
Failure [DELETE_FAILED_ABORTED: com.hihonor.powergenie is not allowed to uninstall.]
HNLGE:/ $ pm disable-user --user 0 com.hihonor.powergenie
Package com.hihonor.powergenie new state: default
I've got a similar problem, although with me it's to do the ability to answer the phone, I can hear phone ringing, yet the screen doesn't wake to allow to answer, when pressing power button to wake it then cuts call off.
I have often thought of deleting/disabling power genie but never did, I don't have answer of how to overcome or solution, I think now Honor are separated from Hauwei their have made some very slight changes and what used to work before a new method is needed.
Any news about this?
also looking for a solution to this
