I read that if you use Package Disabler Pro you have to enable all Apps before you do an update or an OTA update.
I disabled some Apps without using PDP, does the above statement still count for me or can I just update without enabling all Apps again? And if so, do I have to Disable them again after the update or are these disabled Apps just not updated?

As the title suggests, does anyone have a list of apps/services that are safe to disable using package disabler pro?
Please find mine attached. But I do not use couple of apps you might need.

Awesome thank you
Where can you get the disable pro package?
All these. Note: you need to have another Launcher installed before you disable TouchWiz home.
Container agent2
KnoxBBCprovider
Knoxkeyguard
Quick Acess
SharedDeviceKeyguard
These apps show as uninstalled in the application manager. I know had disabled knoxbbcprovider with package Disabler Pro but I had re-enabled all apps and uninstalled it. Would package Disabler Pro somehow uninstall or corrupt these files? I'm leaning towards a factory reset since I've read that the app has been causing issue with the system. But I don't want to reset and make this a new device... bleh.
I have loads of apps disabled via package disabler. When nouget comes out should I enable all the apps first before installing the new firmware?
Thanks
joinin to question ^
Yes. It it also stated in package disabler
Hi everyone
I was using ez package disabler pro for past 6 month without a problem.
couple of days ago i just had trouble activating my license so i did contact the devolper but he did not respond my message..
Now the app is gone from the playstore.
I need to know if anyone here using this app? Are you having any problems with license activation? Are able to see the app n playstore!
Yes, you're correct - same for me. I guess, wait a few days and see if it comes back, as this did happen once before. If it doesn't come back you can uninstall, which I think reactivates all packages. I also have Package Disabler Pro so I can switch to it if necessary, but prefer EZ Package Disabler.

Thanks for the confirmation. ?
Ez package disabler no longer work, the license of SDK of it was expired.
You can try to use the better tool, BK Package Disabler on Google Play
I want to uninstall the Feedback app as it drains my battery a lot, not to mention it runs in the background when Ive never opened or used the stupid app before! The question is can I uninstall it without having any side affects?
Uninstalling system app may result in OTA update failure, other than that no problem should occure.
Unfortunately this is the only built in app added by Xiaomi you can't disable.
Clear the data, set the switch to never run in background and don't open the app again, should help reduce battery usage.
Feedback (and also Camera) is a system app. So uninstalling it could make problems with OTA. Just disable it.

Feedback can't be disabled, that's why I gave the advice in the post before yours.
@kudos1uk I just tested it and you are right. But you can disable it with Titanium Backup or Greenify(I don't know how they work without root) or Brevent that should work without root: https://www.xda-developers.com/brevent-is-an-open-source-alternative-to-greenify-works-without-root/
I don't know if OTA works when the app is hibernated. Maybe, it's better to enable it before updating Android via OTA. Personally, I have the app Feedback activated. It doesn't slow down my phone...

You can't disable a system app with TB without root.
The OP only needs to follow the advice in my first post, if running in background is disabled and you don't start it all will be fine.
If cant disable Mi services and feedback, you can uninstall the app
You can uninstall s&f app by ADB tool using your laptop.. My question is that is it safe??
