Question Samsung Fold 4 Debloat - Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4

Hey guys has anyone used "ADB AppControl" to debloat app/programs on the Fold 4 yet or even tried this link with the lists they name to debloat?
https://www.getdroidtips.com/uninstall-bloatware-samsung-z-flip-4-z-fold-4/#Samsung-Galaxy-Z-Flip-4-Galaxy-Z-Fold-4-Device-Overview

I've used ADB Control App, no issues.

I'm using Package Disabler, used to be in the app store but now it's cloud based. Used it on my Note 10, Note 20 and have just started to debloat the Fold 4 with no issues. Just have to be careful what you select as it may have something to do with something you use. Fairly inexpensive and works. Also don't need a PC so you can disable on the fly.

Hi, this website isn't opening. Is there a place from where i can download this app? Thanks!

I'd recommend ADBAppControl. It's free for all your devices, no need to purchase again every time you buy a new device.

I don't believe there is. I always have to use my PC and transfer to the phone. Just tried again on my PC and the site might be down for maintenance, there's a separate DL site and it's not responding either. I'll email them and see if I get a reply.

Thank you, I used the this app on my windows 10 machine and was able to delete using that app.

I use Icebox, disabled (not uninstalled though) around 100 apps, works a treat!

Been using ADB App Control for my least 3 Samsung phones, Fold 4, Flip 3 and S10+ to freeze apps. Never had any issues, and the extended (paid) version is worth the money, better than some app on the Google Play that needs to rebuy after a major
software version update.

The site is back live again. The only problem with the other app touted here, ADP App Control is that you can't disable on the fly..................you need a PC to make it work.

Just used this to debloat my Fold 4. Thanks for the recommendations. Definitely feels snappier.

I highly recommend ADB AppControl, or any other PC method of disabling bloatware on your phone.
Reason being, if you happen to disable something critical for the phone to operate like normal, like what I did...., then you still have a chance to revert your changes, and avoid having to reset your phone. If I had made the same mistake using an app on my phone to disable bloat, I would have been forced to factory reset!

I respectfully disagree, with the app you can re-enable immediately and not have to wait until you get home to your PC. I have disabled a system I shouldn't and was able to fix it on the fly without a PC or a factory data reset. I have no issues with adb app control but I don't want to have to rely on a PC when I'm away from home. I am proficient in using adb and even that can be reversed without FDR!

[Q] 5.0.1 made me realize I want to uninstall UP and Wellness

Hi,
I've been on 5.0.1 since yesterday. Didn't have any issues with battery before, and now it seems even better.
However, wishing to be fully optimized, I see on the new battery usage option, that besides the 'screen', next in line of battery consumption are 'UP' and 'Wellness'.
Any way to get rid of them, or at least stop them from running?
Thanks
Hi, you can disconnected UP from receiving data, but not remove the program on the watch, as fare as I know.
WELNESS I have the same problem. I want get rid of that too?
What about using:
Code:
adb shell pm disable [I]package_name[/I]
I found conflicting information on whether root is required for that. And of course we'd have to figure out what the package names are.

Easiest way i can think of to get the package names would be to run "adb shell top", then scan through the processes until you see the one that your looking for. if they're not listed, just open them on the watch and they should pop up
Well, it looks like the package manager (pm) does require root.
Edit...Oh, and you can get the package names with:
adb shell pm list packages
I was able to uninstall the Amazon app with a simple:
adb uninstall com.amazon.mShop.android
since that was just installed by the Amazon app on the phone.
But trying:
adb uninstall com.jawbone.upopen
results in:
Failure [DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR]
I'm sure we'll get this thing rooted soon, and then it should be an easy matter to disable or delete any of the pre-installed apps.
Thanks for the responders above, looks like we'll have to wait
I'd like to get rid of this garbage too. Let me know if you figure it out...
Would also like to get rid of these, I do not use my watch for fitness related stuff and the Wellness app just doesn't even work right. Don't even get me started on the stress level -_-
Disable apps?
So if we can't delete them because we need root, can we disable them? Like using the disable function in application manager...would that work through ADB without root?
I'm in the same boat..can't stand having 3 fitness apps installed (fit, wellness, up) and I do not use my watch with ANY of them! Between battery and overall responsiveness, you can't tell me that having all 3 of these running don't have any effect.
It would be awesome if we can figure out how to uninstall unwanted wear-only apps. Seems like a first generation kind of flaw that'll only get better.

Package Disabler

For those of us not willing to root right now, I have to say using package disabler to turn off CleanMaster, S-Voice and S-Finder have done wonders in the last 48 hours for making this phone just as responsive as my 2014 Moto X was. I've been close to biting the bullet and trading it in for almost anything else, and this may have changed my mind.
Where would I find package disabler

Try googling it and selecting the play store link..I was able to download it that way....
Verification is failing
Wow I can confirm. Worked fine before and now it doesn't work. Doesn't even let me active the pack disabled anymore. Smh.
What do I do about the apps I disabled?
Doesn't work, License server error before program starts.
Also very dangerous tool as it needs internet to work.
If you by misstake disable something that has to do with connectivity you will end up having to do a factory restore !!
If you by misstake installed this crap onto your device, you might notice that the de-install option is greyed out, don't panic.
Go into the security section and de-select the app under device administrators.
Now it can be de-installed.

Doesn't work and useless unless the internet dependency is removed.
Usually these kind of apps are being offered for free at XDA forums, but there's always somebody who's trying to
turn it into a buck, totally disregarding the people who d/l this and softbrick their phones...
Also the whole purpose and usefulness of the tool is defeated if you need internet access to d/l and use it.
Reason being the phone fills up with crap, the same second you connect it to the internet the first time.
You want to run a tool like this before, not giving the phone a chance to fill up with junk/updates.
Especially important is this in regards to OTA.
Disabled junk is still junk eating precious space on your mobile.

It only needs internet connection the first time by instaling procees, because the licence activation only works with internet. Once its activated it Work´s well
The server is very busy so it could mbe that you have to wait till all is fine again.
Im using it with my Galaxy S6 Stock not rooted 5.1.1 and i have disabled most of the system app
It´s easy to use and easy no enable again
RubenMMS2
I am not sure what you are saying about this app is correct! in Android please tell me which app do not require internet, and accessing internet is dangers then all apps in play store is dangerous. Debloater do not give any recombination for which packages to disable, if you disable system packages with Debloater the only option left is factory reset (I have to factory reset my Note 3 after using Debloater)
Pacakge Disabler is back
I found the paid version is back and working search for package disabler pro on the play store.
so any list of things we can disable to speed up this phone, touchwiz is really laggy after a few minutes of use

Package disabler has a disabler all bloatware option . it will remove 100+ apps . that you did not know existed on your device.
There is also coding to identify bloatwares. It will double your speed.

i haven't root my S6 edge and don't really want to yet. so i was looking for something like this.
yeah i debloated it with a few app i actually use, great thing about this app is that it shows you which app are "confirmed" safe to deblot. it actually debloted automatically like 140things from my system.
where can i get those codes i don't se it in any of the setting?
i was about to give up on touchwiz and this galaxy s6, since i got it touchwiz has been hell with the reloading of widget and icons, clear cache and data help but a few hours later the slowness would returned ( i already exchanged devices 4 times for other reason and all of them had the same problem), also phone would get hot, sometimes pretty darn hot.
This app has solve all problem (also a different launcher like nova solved it) but using touchwiz and this debloted app have giving me more battery life, super fast device, no more reloading, and it never heats up.
i for one would like to have a device from samsung that i would not have to deblot to get a lag free experience. i believe the only device i have never root from samsung was the note 3 which ran like a champ always.

About time someone thought about security. That program is being used a lot on the note 5 forum. I find it to be potentially a huge security issue. I initially downloaded it and installed. I later that about it. I just went ahead and factory reset. It has way too much access imo.

Latest update adds a new service that installs bloatware

A little bonus update For those Verizon Galaxy S7 users who are unaware http://www.smartphonesupdates.com/latest-verizon-update-galaxy-s7-galaxy-s7-edge/ not mentioned in the change log.
please share your thoughts about this service.
Ah, so that's what that is. DISABLED
Thanks for letting us know, I just checked and disabled it.
Something like this should be illegal. Disabled.

Thanks for this! I disabled it. I want my phone running as lean and mean as possible.
If you own the phone outright, paid in full, they should disclose what they are doing to it. I cleared and froze right after upgrading.
You all are welcome, i always try to share helpful info for my friends.
Thanks !

This was also present on S6 and forward. Not new, but this should never have been added in the first place. I don't want random games on my phone.
I tried to disable but asked "Would you like to replace app with factory version?" Is another app that does the same thing going to replace it? I can't disable DT ignite if I don't click yes

Its because DT ignite has updates installed. Click yes and it will put the "factory" non-updated version back on the phone. Then it will allow u to disable as normal.
Thanks so much for the find.
For those that may not have found it yet I have just started using Package Disabler Pro which let's you disable all of the verison and other bloatware without root...

DT ignite is a cancer waiting to spread. Forcing apps to install onto the device that has almost half its storage already taken by bloat. Haven't seen any apps besides the beam software install without my permission, had to install Nextradio manually ( which has annoying ads ). DT Ignite could one day install an app that can compromise your phones security due to programming flaws. All quickrooter exploits have been patched, however if it feels like a Trojan it is a Trojan
Just updated my VZ Galaxy S6 edge plus 64gb and this Cancerous AIDS is in that update as well. Before my eyes I had apps appearing like magic installing themselves one by one.
This is worse than most phones that have crap in their root preinstall folder that show up after every restart
Haven't had anything wacky installed, it's even installing an updated Instagram not from the Google play store

Instant messaging apps do not work on the 5.1

Hi everyone, the issue I am facing is that instant messaging apps (Viber, Facebook messenger, etc) do not work on my 5.1. Notifications settings are OK, unrestricted data access is allowed for these apps, so this is not a notification issue. The apps do not receive messages unless I launch them (when I launch the apps, there are no new messages, they start arriving a couple of seconds after launching). I contacted Nokia, but they did not have a clue... I did everything they asked for (factory reset, etc.), nothing helped.
Does anyone else have similar issues? Does anyone have any idea what the solution might be?
So it's been reported before that Nokia/HMD is the worst for how aggressively they limit background app usage. This can't be fixed in the current stock ROM but Nokia might help us out with Pie (if it ever materialises).

Thanks. It seems that the 5.1 was my last Nokia.
The Android One project is a bit of a farce given the update cycle is so delayed. It's good to have the security of assured updates, but only providing them when the hardware is no longer relevant seems a waste. Also it's possibly the Mediatek chipset to blame, but this phone has not had a great deal of interest on XDA, which could also be in part due to the Android One project making custom ROMs a little less relevent.
You can fix it yourself by uninstalling com.evenwell.emm app from user space. That crappy service which HMD bundles into firmware "improves" battery life by killing all non-system background apps.

Yes, you can delete overlay as well.
Yuo may need to uninstall these packages as well
com.evenwell.PowerMonitor
com.evenwell.PowerMonitor.overlay.base
I noticed that my 1Password service was still being killed after uninstalling com.evenwell.powersaving.g3.* packages. After removing PowerMonitor stuff everything back to normal and Nokia 5.1 Pie became usable again
I have the 2gb variant and its no use. Its a crappy phone... No notification what so ever even after disable/uninstall the evenwell apps and battery saver etc apps. Its no use as doon you start browsing only Google apps remains active. All other are killed. Not a android one phone. Its a stupid phone!!!
I believe I have found the definitive answer for this, after much googling around.
I have a 5.1 Plus (TA-1108) and tried the ADB disabling of evenwell apps and others but it still would stop services after restarts. I eventually found a post on the "Don't kill my phone" Github which alluded to the hidden setting of the "Duraspeed" task killer that is bundled.
The dontkillmyphone website says you can ADB in and change this hidden setting to 0, but this doesn't persist after a restart. The value will still be a 0, but it seems this task killer only reads the value after it detects a change in the value (bizarre, I know). So to disable this Duraspeed thing, you need to change the hidden setting value from something else to a 0 on each boot.
Luckliy, this is very easily done by Tasker/Macrodroid/etc. Use this post:
https://github.com/urbandroid-team/dont-kill-my-app/issues/57#issuecomment-484000884
but the short of it is to enable WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS to tasker (by running this:
adb shell pm grant net.dinglisch.android.taskerm android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
for tasker, google for your app of choice)
and then set a task that runs on boot to change a "Custom Setting", Global type, setting name setting.duraspeed.enabled to a value (doesn't matter, I use 2) and then immediately after change the same setting to 0.
I have this set up on my phone and my wifes phone and ever since they have been perfect with background services (my Garmin watch, lastpass, etc) as well as any email/notification apps.

I second this.
no special rom, just used adb/fastboot tools to uninstall - can't put links here for some reason, but just google it - its on github. Super simple, graphical interface. If you uninstall, it saves the .apk's so you can reinstall if necessary
The tool is called Saki tools
The tool that I always use is called saki tools, available on github. I'm sure he uses this also. It's great.
Just enable usb debugging on phone, open the application on pc and allow usb debugging, delete whatever you want.
Hopefully this clears up some confusion.
https://github.com/Szaki/XiaomiADBFastbootTools/releases/tag/6.8.1
Not called Saki tools, its made by a developer names SZaki - its called Xiaomi ADB Fastboot Tools. but yes, thats the link. (why can i not post links?)

For which version of miui?
Could you make as it.bat files for one click usage, yeah Miui also tend to change Apk names randomly each version update so you need to make different [.bat] for each miui versions. I did has my own personal list. Personally tested but outdated for already sold whyred.
You could make one click with options wizard
[remove extra Google app]
[total remove Google (Unsafe, for some one who want reinstall to microg/bitsGapps/picoGAPPs, make sure you already logout Google and has other keyboard installed) ]
[remove extra miui]
[total remove miui apps(make sure you got another launcher and logout miui account)]
[remove all non miui/Google bloats (Ie. Fb, preinstalled game)]
have you downloaded the program from github? Its a fully gui - click and delete. its for all current versions of miui as far as the developer has said. personally i'm on 10.4.4.0. The list that it gives you to delete are considered "safe to delete apps" - worst case i guess you soft brick.and need to do a factory reset. The app also leaves all the .apks for you to reinstall should something misbehave.

have you downloaded the program from github? Its a fully gui - click and delete. its for all current versions of miui as far as the developer has said. personally i'm on 10.4.4.0. The list that it gives you to delete are considered "safe to delete apps" - worst case i guess you soft brick.and need to do a factory reset. The app also leaves all the .apks for you to reinstall should something misbehave.

Yes, I already know for months already about it but her list is too simple and disabling function is buggy, disabled app still asking for update. Once we update it by mistake, or just changing region, they"ll back.

I'm not sure what you are talking about - i have uninstalled everything on the list here - get no errors/bugs/requests for updates. They are gone and the phone is faster/safer and the battery lasts longer.

I just debloated successfully and it's all working fine. But i'm still left with the same amount of free space as i had before i uninstalled any of the apps i did.... Makes me wonder if Szaki tools really uninstalls the apps or somehow disables them without removing it from the device... Kinda suspicious to be honest...
PS: Also, i want to uninstall this really unnecessary download handler that comes with this phone but i don't see an option to do so?

This Is why I said the list is not suitable for me. It's good for newbie but people with more experience need POWERUSER MODE to remove more bloats, like fully uninstall ALL MIUI related to make it as close as stock for example. Yes, I can use adb manually or use debloat module in magisk, but tools to make it easier will be very welcomed

I agree. Someone already mentioned that at git too but Szaki's reply was to use "Add Apps" from the "App Manager" menu and update the list with what you want to remove. Apparently all the tabs use the same list...

it leaves the apks on your phone so you can reinstall if necessary, so they are still going to take up some space.
There is ALSO a disable tab you can use, which does exactly that.
Are you 100% sure you didn't gain a small amount of space? I gained a bit after deleting the ones on my list.

he has stated multiple times that the list to intentionally small to avoid the huge amount of dependencies that miui bakes into their apps and OS. each phone has different dependencies, and sometimes what works on one phone, soft bricks another. SO... there is an option to add apps (at your discretion) but even the safe list is not promised to not soft brick a phone (some phones the list is fully safe, others, maybe it trips a dependency and breaks something
If you want, start adding apps from outside the list and respond with your findings That would be the POWERUSER thing to do, would it not?.

Hey gang, i have been working my way slowly through the adb/fastboot tools debloat list on the N8P and here is a list of the apps that i have uninstalled so far. My device is rock solid with no issues, and i'm seeing around 13 hours of sot so far.
heres the list, i'll update every once in a while as i slowly uninstall more.

Thanks, please have a look at this excellent post about debloating.
Though this is for redmi note 2, the list of apps you can safely remove is still quite actual.
Even though my phone is rooted, I couldn't remove system apk's and folders.
I've done so manually through twrp after first safely freezing apps by titanium to observe.
Root folder space is now at 70 %, which used to be over 90 if I remember well. :fingers-crossed:
