Hi, i got today my new P9 lite.
I would know if it is possible remove some system apps like google play, google drive etc. and other operator branded apps.
I need root (after unlocked bootloader and twrp) to do this?
Thanks.

Yes you need root for removing system apps. But why would you want to remove play store? You use you're smartphone just for calls and texts?
Also, deleting play store services will cause system instability, inability to receive updates, or to use some other services like cloud backup.....
Yes, is ok to delete apps that are considered bloatware ( like amazon, eBay, or games) but some of these are removable without root.
Best thing for you is to go to settings -> apps and click on apps that bother you. There you will find uninstall button for what you can delete or disable for apps that can be frozen
Thanks for answer.
Anyway i didn't write i want to remove play store or play services! I just says some google apps like play, drive, hangouts etc.

yes you can
I have removed Hicare, Hivoice, Huawei ID, NFC service, Services Exchange and all the google stock apps (Movies, music, google+ etc) and all is working fine (Google play services is an essential app)
You can also disable these apps on the info page of the apps.
They remain on the phone and take the space but they are not active any more.

Could you give the whole system unpacked, I've deleted something that I cant't get it back, ty
To easily delede system apps you can use the app Link2SD if you have root access
Is not recommended to delete the stock apps because can cause malfunction of the system but you can stop the services. There are not many bloatware on Huawei P9 Lite an i think they can be necessary.

It's the app I have use to do the job. Works fine. Root needed.
1st of all you have to root your Android. You can use King Root app to root your device. (But I am not sure KingRoot will root your device or not). After rooting your android install lucky Patcher app. Then select the app you want to remove. But remember some of the apps are important for your device. so be careful about removing stock apps. Good luck!
So I have a FTV2 that I can't root (yet... hopefully) because it's on the 5.2.4 software - but I needed Google Play Services in order to run a particular program I sideloaded. Using the info in this guide:
http://www.aftvnews.com/how-to-inst...amazon-fire-tv-or-fire-tv-stick-without-root/
I was able to get (what I believe to be) the latest working versions (for the FTV) installed. The program in question now works fine. Here's what I did (again, all credit to the above source... all I did differently is figure out and download the latest versions of each):
1) Download the following apks (I got all of these from apkmirror) and install in this order:
- com.google.android.gsf_4.0.4-488656 (this is Google Services Framework)
- com.google.android.gms_10.2.98_(030-146496160) (this is Google Play Services)
- com.google.android.gsf.login_5.1-1743759 (this is Google Account Manager)
- com.android.vending_6.8.24 (this is Google Play Store)
2) Once the above are installed, launch the Google Play Store and attempt to login. It'll fail. That's expected.
3) Hit home key and you're gtg!! Apps requireing play services should now work (at least they did for me).
I'm not sure if you have to do the play store part or even install the play store and/or the account manager, but I figured it couldn't hurt.
Hope that helps!
Didn't work for me. Still get the
"app(optus sports in my case - Australia) won't run without Google play services which are missing from your phone"
Thanks for trying to help though.

Hi All, I have just tried to install google play on my Fire TV 2 and I get an Error saying this app isn't compatiable with your device. To fix this problem, go to settings and uninstall updates for the google Play Store App. I followed your guide exactly but I am now stuck, can you offer me any advice please. (I only need google play store to download one paid app, as it does not transfer across as a full paid app with apps2fire)
FireTV Software Version:- Fire OS 5.2.4.2 (574263120)
Fire TV Home Version 5.7.3-17
Non Rooted (Really do not want to root it)
Thank you for any help

Any luck with this? I was able to get past this initial issue by installing the Android TV version of the app which allowed me to open, but I get a spinning wheel and nothing loads so I am assuming the framework files are to blame somehow.
All I want is to install a recent version of espxe! As my current version crashes when visiting the preferences screen.
Any help most appreciated!!
Solved
Solved by installing most recent version of expse by transferring apk from device to fire tv so no need to install google play on fire tv 2
I installed and I can get the app to work. It is MSG GO. Now it is asking to allow location services. Thoughts?

Hi,
I have the same FTV2 with the same 5.2.4.0.
And like you I need the Google Play Services for the same reason.
So I installed the exact versions of apks with same the order you provided.
But unfortunately when I launched Google Play Store I only got the cruel error "This app isn't compatible with your device. To fix this problem, go to settings and uninstall updates for the google Play Store App."
You mention that you downloaded the latest version (at that time). Any ideas which versions to download, since they are to many?
Thanks in advance for your kind answer!

Hi,
Can you be more specific on the solution you describe?
Thanks in advance!
Hi
My solution was that I didn't need to install the app I wanted (espxe PlayStation emulator) at all through an installation of google play. Instead I found another android device (tablet) downloaded the espxe apk on that and then copied it to the Amazon fire tv. I messed around with different framework versions but to no avail. I was able to get the 1mobile store installed a lot easier which has many apps but this didn't have the 'paid for' espxe.

Hi!
I would like to know how to install apps (watch faces) on my Wear 2.0 watch that were not downloaded from Play Store. I see that we have an option "Apps from your phone" under PlayStore on our 2.0 watch, but how can we install apps that were not downloaded from Play store? Is there any way to transfer (install) them onto the watch without using ADB? Is there any option on our watch to find all apps installed on our phone?
Thanks.
Hi everyone,
After 2 years of using my Axon 7 (China) I decided to update.
I choose Oreo 8.1, and I want to stay with it because Dolby Atmos app is much better.
I try to install the other updates of 8.1 and the problem is still the same:
Apps for example JetAudio is running very long when I turn on to listen music, sometime frozen.
Play store too, when I use this app It can frozen, app is closed information on not respond.
Sometimes is info ,,Interface has stopped"
I use apk google installer to install google services or I install manual apk from apk mirror, and it still same problem.
I try to turn on permission to storage.
There is a more options for aps about energy or run in the background and I think its not helpful, maybe someone knows some options that I didn't find ?
Please help..

Hi.
This was my situation on b15-b16 update also.
Try empty cache of the google playstore, services, framework etc.
But my suggestion is that do full reset, and than go to zte market and download google downloader.
Than you will get a much faster (and clean) device.
Btw Where did you get 8.1 ? My knowing was that 8.0 (b19) is still in beta phase. Never heard about 8.1.
Regards

Ups, I made mistake. It's 8.0.0 Oreo, I get it from forum and flash with EDL mode.
Clear cache no results..
But how I go to ZTE Market ? I need to create account ? If yes, it's immposible because they ask for phone number and number from Poland didn't work.
Is there some other option to go to ZTE Market ?

No need for phone number. Maybe you should to register (zte account), but without telephone number. I'm from Hungary and it's works. Sorry that I can't recall the process, it was one day painful work that solved
Hi
Like Google Play, is there an updater that updates app from APKmirror or others automatic?
There are but I would suggest aurora which uses Google play without an account
Forgot to mention, it can also be apps that are not on Google Play.
Ex for me is: Disney+, have to find it on apkmirror (or others), has disappeared from my Google Play....
Ofcourse other apps also, that is not on google play.
Disney + is still on Google play Maybe not for your country or something but aurora uses anonymity to show you everything on the Play store
Something happens after a reset of my Shield. So can't find it anymore.
I will try aurora, tried it now on my phone, looks great.
New to this, so 1 question: Is it possible to make update and install. Now I had to hit install/upgrade for each of the apps?
And maybe run in the background and update apps?
With root yes that will auto update
Thanks for the answer.
Haven't read or tried that in years. Maybe I'll check for the Shield, my phone is brand new so I'll have to think about that.
Is it still the hassel of USB, program and much code on the laptop, if I could ask?
Now it's just using a modified boot file. An oversimplified explanation is to just enable oem unlock, reset to factory settings, extract the boot file, magisk modifies it, put it back in the phone and boom you're rooted
Thanks, will try to find the howto for my Shield and maybe my phone.
