Hi Guys,
I want to remove some app provided with VRZ notes 3 by default.
i'm talking about amazon, backup and other.
any possible way to do it ?
Thanks in advance.
PS: i did root it already but still impossible to remove.
I typically disable or freeze them, but I believe (not fully positive as I haven't tried it on the note 3) that you can use ROM Toolbox Pro or Titanium Backup to uninstall the system apps.
@Diocat, thanks will give it a try and get back for the results.
Beside I've learn that the bootloader has not been released yet by VRZ, so i guess we won't be able to get a custom rom installed until then!?

I have done a lot of reading trying to learn the rooting world.
One thing is unclear to me, once rooted can I delete bloat ware apps as I please? I know many roms delete the bloat but if I stayed on the stock rom can I delete apps that I am not able to delete unrooted? If so, is there a guide for how to do so? Thanks.

Not without a helper app like Titanium Backup ROOT. And I would strongly suggest you backup everything first, just in case you delete a program that you really need.

I use root explorer and just delete the apk's manually. Works the same I would guess.

Or you can manually rename them.

I use Root Explorer and copy the apps that I'm deleting (over 100) to my computer then delete them from the system.
Hey guys
Ok I have a few questions regarding my situation... i went from stock (never touched my rom before.. 6.0.1 i think) on my 910F with latest ota updates.. to the Norma v14.. thats what Im running now.. but I have a few issues.. incoming calls doesnt show the names, only numbers.. thats my biggest issue oh and the fact that I cannot restore my backup made in smart switch before i flashed the rom.. now I have these questions.
1. If I go into twrp and restore to the factory state that I made a backup of, and then use Titanium backup(as i bought it) to backup my phone.. will I be able to backup everything including s-pen notes, pictures, videos, and all my apps data.. and then...
2. Can I then flash the v15 Norma rom and use titanium backup made in stock rom to restore EVERYTHING to the new rom.. thus having all my data back?
3. Oh and can anyone confirm that the lock screen off s-pen write feature works in v15?
Do I miss anything? Is this a good plan?
Oh and if anyone have experienced the problem I have with the contacts not displaying, please tell me what to do..
Thanks for any feedback. You guys rock!

Hey all.
So I'm a fan of THIS ROM package, being the US996 NotSoStock. It's debloated and works great. Unfortunately this hasn't been updated in quite some time, and is difficult for me to flash now for whatever reason (backwards).
I use the latest version of TWRP for flashing updates and root privileges, and have purchased Titanium Backup from the Play Store because that's what they say works best for debloating. But MAN, do I SUCK at doing it. No idea what the f**k I'm doing.
Are there any other tools I can use to clean up stock images?
Thanks in advance!

There are lists out there of things you can disable. You would just have to look for one..
If you are going to debloat using Titanium I would suggest freezing and testing before actually deleting.. You will want to make a complete backup before doing anything.
Freeze an apk test and continue.. Freezing is nice because it disables the apk without deleting.. Freeze a bunch of things they will be saved in a list of frozen items.. Test thoroughly and delete frozen items as your leisure..
Things will get broken example dependencies of certain LG apks that are tied to theming ..

So, I've had this phone since shortly after launch. I came from a pixel 2 XL after one of my middle school students broke it. I pretty regularly ran custom roms or just a couple modules and root apps here and there. I know you lose fingerprint sensor by installing custom roms, just curious as to what everyone else did? I assume the procedures are all still the same as the pixel 2.

I unlocked yesterday, root and installed a kernel and run OOS Stock Rom. You should do that, if you don't want to loose the FP. Probably I would be trying some ROMs, but not now. I come from a OP3 with Custom ROM.

There's 2 roms we have here that have the fingerprint sensor working, because they're actually Magisk modules that run on top of OOS. Revovation Ice (Only works with stable OOS) and XXX No Limits (works with stable and beta, you can find this one in the OnePlus 6 forum). I'm using Renovation Ice right now, I love it!

Sweet. I actually tried Friday 2 and still have it and it did not go well. Could not figure out what gapps to download, seems like everyone I picked was the wrong one. Had to learn how to put this phone back to stock and was freaking out. Nandroid backup didn't work. Every time I hit reboot system it would put me right back to the same spot, except it was TWRP encrypted, wouldn't reboot. Ended up having to figure out how to get it back to stock and haven't tried it again yet.

Why are you trying to install Gapps? The stock OOS already has them. Renovate Ice runs on top of the stock ROM. Back to Stock is as simple as flashing the latest ROM even with a factory reset(complete wipe). Set up as normal after flashing, then flash Twrp. Install Magisk if you want Root then Renovate Ice. There are guides on how to do all of this.
Havoc rom required then according to the directions. That's the too I tried Friday night. It was a rough night.

You guys have me all about the stock ROM though. Glad that is a thing. Hopefully the installation process goes more smoothly

Phone corrupt? Simple fix actually. Download the MSM Download Tool, it's here on XDA in the Guides section for some reason. There's the T-Mobile version of the tool if you bought your device from T-Mobile, and the global version of the tool (two separate threads on here) that will reflash the device if you bought from OnePlus directly. Shoot me a message if you need some help, I don't mind at all! [emoji1]
EDIT: Note that this tool formats your device COMPLETELY. You'll lose all your pics and files, but it cleanly installs OOS for you and relocks your bootloader as well.

I downloaded the tool, and have some experience using them but ended up doing the fastboot method . Are they the same thing except one is just via toolkit ?

Well, basically the MSM tool doesn't go through your bootloader. This device has a Qualcomm download mode built in that's an even lower level mode than the bootloader. The MSM tool can restore your device even if it's TOAST (for example, corrupted bootloader or just can't boot to it.). It's easier that fastboot as well! It's a perk of having a OnePlus for sure!
