[GUIDE][NO ROOT] Disable Bloatware on 2nd Gen Fire TV Stick

Please note, this method will work with firmware version 5.2.6.0 and lower. This will NOT work on firmware 5.2.6.1 or higher.
First and foremost, thanks to @bibikalka for his thread on disabling OTA updates on the Amazon Fire TV Stick 2nd Gen. As well as @patriot1889 for creating an app Confireator which allows users to still be able to access the Factory Restore option, WiFi settings, Bluetooth settings and Application Settings in a easy user interface. Finally, thanks to @esc0rtd3w's script to removing bloat on the First Gen Amazon Fire TV Stick which is what I used as a base for what I removed: https://github.com/esc0rtd3w/firestick-loader/blob/master/scripts/debloat/bloat-disable.sh
Run these commands from your ADB using "adb uninstall -k --user 0 "
Below are all the APKs I have disabled. This will remove ALL Amazon features including the launcher, appstore, videos, etc. Make sure you have a different launcher as well as Confireator so you are still able to access the Factory Restore option, WiFi settings, Bluetooth settings and Application Settings. I also suggest using Launcher Hyjack so home button recognition works. Proceed ONLY if you use your Fire Stick v2 for non-Amazon activities and want the performance boost for your device. You have been warned.
Here is a list of everything I have disabled:

This is as good as it is going to get in terms of getting better performance for us 2nd Gen Fire TV Stick Users out there... until we get root (hopefully)!

Is this list usable for (rooted) fire tv stick 1 (I know I can use pm disable command, I'd just like to know if I can apply it to the same list. I also took a look to the specific debloat thread for ftv stick 1 but packages seems different and never understood which of the packages listed in debloat.sh script are safe to use).
Thanks.

Please see this thread:https://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/help/root-disabling-apps-services-bloat-t3325333/page2
Users say they were able to use esc0rtd3w commands to debloat the FTV Stick 1. All the packages should match up perfectly with your's since they are both FTV Stick 1. I can say that my list (which is a FTV stick 2) had the majority of the same package names. So yes, you can use my list above. However, If I were you I would take a look at esc0rtd3w's list to thoroughly disable all your bloat.

Thanks for advice,
I did read that thread. I eve replied to it. It's just that a few users experimented issues with some service I need (Netflix most of all) so I wanted to be sure the whole script was 100% safe. I guess as soon as I have time I'll test the packages one at a time to check if they cause any harm.
Regards.

Cheers for this, before I try this however, how much ram/memory does this save? How much did it save for you? Cheers

Unfortunately, I didn't look at my RAM usage before and after as I did not have an apk installed that provided me with that information. However, I use my Amazon Firestick v2 primarily for Kodi and can say that there is no more lag or no freezing while switching menus.
As for your question regarding how much disk space this will save you, @rainman74 summarized it best on the Disable OTA Thread
rainman74 said:
No, you can't debloat your stick/box with esc0rtd3w's hints without root on current firmware versions, because you will not gain additional space on eMMC with only uninstalling apks for user 0. The uninstalled apks remains on eMMC, but in an uninstalled state and therefore "disabled".

This is great. Thanks for this, it works a treat.
I have created this little app to allow quick access to the three settings we still have access to.
I'd post it as a link but I can't, because I'm a new user

Because this is my first ever android app and I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing, haha. Let me check how to remove those permission, as it doesn't need them at all. I'll also add in that other menu option.

Ok. Now it has the applications menu and shouldn't ask for those permissions

Thanks for this. Just an FYI in case you uninstall all your launchers, you can reinstall the one you were using (or maybe any app that regiters as a launcher) via ADB while its booting (adb install tvlauncher.apk or whatever) because it will just get stuck at loading.

Wow! Excellent job with the app you created @patriot1889! I am going to revise my first post and suggest people use your app instead of Activity Launcher as your app is catered specifically to the Fire TV stick and provides a seamless user friendly experience.
Thank you for this and well done! :good:

Do you have got any idea, why I can not start the applications menu in your app and via Activity Launcher it is working (com.amazon.tv.settings/.tv.applications.ApplicationsActivity)?
But the other 3 menus are working fine in your app. Is there a difference between the 3 and the applications menu?

Hi there I'm new to this stuff. I followed the instructions in the first post with a varying degree of success:
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb uninstall -k --user 0 com.amazon.device.software.ota
The -k option uninstalls the application while retaining the data/cache.
At the moment, there is no way to remove the remaining data.
You will have to reinstall the application with the same signature, and fully uninstall it.
If you truly wish to continue, execute 'adb shell pm uninstall -k'
.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.amazon.dcp
Failure - not installed for 0
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.amazon.devicecontrol

Failure - not installed for 0
C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot>adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.amazon.tz.webcryptotzservice
Failure - not installed for 0
As you can see I had to vary the command a little (add "shell pm") and there were 7 apps that I got "not installed for 0" for. Besides that it worked a treat and launches into AppStarter so much more quickly.

Same problem here. Can't get a list of apps but all the other options work. When I click "Applications" in conFIREator it goes blue (as if the Amazon launcher is coming on) but then quickly goes back to AppStarter.

@patriot1889 there's somthing wrong at starting the applications menu from your conFIREator:

Debloated Firmware for ATT SM-G935A

Hey guys!
I am looking to debloat the ATT and Samsung apps on my Galaxy S7 edge. I'm not necessairly looking to root. I just want to be free of all these useless apps I do not use. Is there anyone who has made this already that can be flashed using Odin? Thanks for helping a girl out, if you can!

Successfull debloat without root and additional apps
Hiya, SoYaThink,
The thread is a bit old, but still hope this will help somebody:
I soft bricked my phone about 10 times trying different ways to root it.
Blew up the warranty bit as well (no biggie for me, since I don't intend to use Samsung Pay and Knox)
Finally stumbled upon a brilliant solution (apologies for not being able to give proper credits, lost the link)
What you need is ADB tools, a nice USB cable and your fone!
(I used ADB fastboot)
I also installed an app called "Package inspector" in order to be able to verify the package names, so I did not risk to remove something wrong. Any app that lists your system packages and does not require root should do.
Before the long novel, I'd like to say that if you need more info or help give me a shout and I'll try to help.
I'm no expert, but I went through some fun and boot loops with my phone, so I seem to do ok for someone that has no clue
FIRST and foremost! Few words of caution.
Do not unistall anything that you are even slightly unsure about.
Yes, you can brick your phone by using the below method if you are not careful!
Therefore, I do not recommend using ready-made scripts, unless you read thoroughly and understand very well what they actually will remove. (I did brick my phone using a script, and I thought I was sure what was going on...)
Fully manual, line-by-line may seem tedious and time consuming, but it's mild compared to what an un-bricking will take (if it is even possible to un-brick...)
So, if you are unsure about a package, research WWW and make sure it will not affect your phone in negative way.
My phone specs after un-bricking:
Samsung s7 Edge
SM-G935F (EUR/UK)
Android 8.0.0 Oreo (hero2lte)
So here it goes:
- Download and install /or unzip/ ADB tools in a dir of your choice
- Enable Developer Options on your phone
(How: Settings -> About Phone -> Software Informations -> Tap on Build Number 7 times)
Now you should see Developer Options at the bottom of your Settings
- In the Developer options menu, enable USB debugging.
- Connect Your phone to computer with USB.
You should see a prompt on yur phone about the RSA key. Klick OK. If you want, you can also check "Always allow from this computer" - will save you more clicking on prompts further on.
- On the computer, start CMD (command prompt) in the same directory as adb.exe (Right click in the folder and choose "Open command window here")
- To test whether ADB is working properly, in CMD, type
adb devices
You should see a line "List of devices attached" and under it a device alphanumeric code.
If this doesn't work for you, you might need to install drivers for your phone.
Now the fun part begins.
- On your phone, check the name of the app package that you want to remove, for example Instagram.
- Open adb shell by typing in CMD
adb shell
- Execute the command (WITHOUT the curly brackets quotes) to find specific package names:
pm list packages | grep '{part or whole package name}'
for Instagram, the command would be
pm list packages | grep 'instagram'
Note: packages may or may not contain a key word derived from the app name, and
Some apps have more that one package that need to be removed.
Hence why you could use a package listing app
You could remove it when you're debloated.
- To uninstal a specific package, in adb execute the following command:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 {name of package}
For Instagram, that would be:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.instagram.android
Voila! One bloatware gone!
Now go on and do the same for all pesky bloats that you want gone.
Here's (a very) cautious list of what I removed:

Hiya, SoYaThink,
The thread is a bit old, but still hope this will help somebody:
I soft bricked my phone about 10 times trying different ways to root it.
Blew up the warranty bit as well (no biggie for me, since I don't intend to use Samsung Pay and Knox)
Finally stumbled upon a brilliant solution (apologies for not being able to give proper credits, lost the link)
What you need is ADB tools, a nice USB cable and your fone!
(I used ADB fastboot)
I also installed an app called "Package inspector" in order to be able to verify the package names, so I did not risk to remove something wrong. Any app that lists your system packages and does not require root should do.
Before the long novel, I'd like to say that if you need more info or help give me a shout and I'll try to help.
I'm no expert, but I went through some fun and boot loops with my phone, so I seem to do ok for someone that has no clue
FIRST and foremost! Few words of caution.
Do not unistall anything that you are even slightly unsure about.
Yes, you can brick your phone by using the below method if you are not careful!
Therefore, I do not recommend using ready-made scripts, unless you read thoroughly and understand very well what they actually will remove. (I did brick my phone using a script, and I thought I was sure what was going on...)
Fully manual, line-by-line may seem tedious and time consuming, but it's mild compared to what an un-bricking will take (if it is even possible to un-brick...)
So, if you are unsure about a package, research WWW and make sure it will not affect your phone in negative way.
My phone specs after un-bricking:
Samsung s7 Edge
SM-G935F (EUR/UK)
Android 8.0.0 Oreo (hero2lte)
So here it goes:
- Download and install /or unzip/ ADB tools in a dir of your choice
- Enable Developer Options on your phone
(How: Settings -> About Phone -> Software Informations -> Tap on Build Number 7 times)
Now you should see Developer Options at the bottom of your Settings
- In the Developer options menu, enable USB debugging.
- Connect Your phone to computer with USB.
You should see a prompt on yur phone about the RSA key. Klick OK. If you want, you can also check "Always allow from this computer" - will save you more clicking on prompts further on.
- On the computer, start CMD (command prompt) in the same directory as adb.exe (Right click in the folder and choose "Open command window here")
- To test whether ADB is working properly, in CMD, type
adb devices
You should see a line "List of devices attached" and under it a device alphanumeric code.
If this doesn't work for you, you might need to install drivers for your phone.
Now the fun part begins.
- On your phone, check the name of the app package that you want to remove, for example Instagram.
- Open adb shell by typing in CMD
adb shell
- Execute the command (WITHOUT the curly brackets quotes) to find specific package names:
pm list packages | grep '{part or whole package name}'
for Instagram, the command would be
pm list packages | grep 'instagram'
Note: packages may or may not contain a key word derived from the app name, and
Some apps have more that one package that need to be removed.
Hence why you could use a package listing app
You could remove it when you're debloated.
- To uninstal a specific package, in adb execute the following command:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 {name of package}
For Instagram, that would be:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.instagram.android
Voila! One bloatware gone!
Now go on and do the same for all pesky bloats that you want gone.
Here's (a very) cautious list of what I removed:

Debloating the t590 stock rom

For those that want to slim down what's running on your 590 stock rom, this is a starter list I just created.
It's by no means comprehensive, let's hope people can add to it and we'll eventually have a good list people can use if they desire.
Please note, you are doing this at your own risk, meaning some packages, once removed, may affect the device such that it can't be booted! Then the only solution is to restore to factory defaults. So don't just go willy nilly uninstalling things without any idea what they do!
So the first thing I did was run:
Code:
adb shell pm list packages -f
This will list all packages and their associated file. There are additional options which show only disabled or enabled etc. But this gave me all I needed.
This next command will uninstall the package for user "0", since most of us only have one user with the device, it's all we need. Keep in mind, the package is still on the drive (taking up space), but it's not installed, so there won't be any notices about updating it etc.
Code:
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.chrome
The above will (obviously) remove the chrome browser, which is something I always do, and install lineage Jelly browser. Just my preference - it's much more minimalist and I rarely use a browser on a tablet anyway.
** IF ** you do uninstall something and later want it back, one option (other than factory reset) would be the 'Solid Explorer' on the playstore, it can look at 'root' and reinstall packages.
Lastly, be sure to understand, I'm not telling anyone to do anything, you do any of this at your own risk. Don't blame me if you uninstall a package and then later it messes up your system. I'm merely suggesting this is something you can do, if you want to take on the risk.
That said, this is a list of packages I uninstalled using a linux bash script. My device booted properly afterwards and all is behaving normally, also I think it cut my installed apps almost in half! When I did the update to the latest security patch it optimized 66 apps! That's way too much for a minimalist like me, I don't need anywhere near that many apps installed.
Here's the list, again, use at your own risk;

[HOW-TO][DEBLOAT][ADB] The ultimate ADB debloating thread for the S20/+/U series

Hi, i´ve seen some threads and questions about debloating in the s20 forum, but by having a quick look at them, theres not much information for beginners. Thats why I decided to sign up and join the xda community. I would like to make this the discussion thread for debloating related stuff, packed with all information needed and want you guys to join and share. I´m rooting, debloating my devices with passion since Galaxy S2 for various reasons, my main drive to do so is privacy among others.
Some people might ask: Why use adb to debloat when there are debloating apps in the play store?
Simple, the advantage of using adb is, its a built-in android feature, no need for apps that are loaded with trackers and analytics. You can simply generate your own debloat list.txt and store it on your computer, this is what i advise everybody to do, in case you break something you´ll have the list of what you did and you can work with it. It´s also very useful to have your own list in case you switch roms, reflash rom or had to factory reset for whatever reason. In this case just copy & paste your list in the terminal hit enter, reboot, boom your done. Simple, fast and effective, with an app you´ll have to debloat every app one by one, which is very time consuming. However package manager have their use case, especially when you´re on the run and want to enable/disable an app.
When uninstalling apps via adb, the package still remains in its directory and is not deleted from its partition, it simply gets uninstalled/unlinked from your user account. This has the advantage you can easily reinstall them by adb in case you broke a feature but it also means you won´t free up space by doing so unless you use the right uninstall command to at least delete the /data and /cache directory. (For the paranoid people out there, the uninstalled apps wont do nothing, no background activity, internet/dns requests or whatever, they are dead by using the pm uninstall -k --user 0 command)
This all sounds perfectly safe and easy, but it isn't. pm uninstall still is a powerful command that can uninstall system apps and by doing so it can mess up your system. If you uninstall the wrong system app and your stuck in a bootloop or the system doesn´t boot at all, the game will be over but you can´t hard brick your device. If you´re able to establish an adb connection while booting simply reinstall the troublemaker. If you can´t connect while booting, factory reset, wipe data/cache is the way to go or reflash firmware with CSC not HOME_CSC! If you don´t know what you´re doing then do some research before uninstalling system apps, always have a recent backup, in case something goes wrong.
disabling or uninstalling?
i prefer uninstalling. A disabled app, can still be seen by other apps and i don´t want that. It´s even possible to disable an system app and your system will run perfectly fine, but when uninstalling the app your system won´t boot anymore.
I go with uninstalling, but thats just personal preference. You can always play safe and disable.
You will still receive OTA updates and uninstalled apps stay uninstalled after the update, but it´s better to check after every update, there could be changes made to the update and/or additional bloat could be installed. better be safe than sorry.
YOU DON´T NEED ROOT FOR THIS, you can disable/uninstall apps via adb without rooting your device. You will not trip knox or risk your warranty, by doing so. This is most likely the best part for the most users out there.
Something to note is, that some system apps reinstall themselves after a reboot. Thats the limit of pm uninstall command, because it won´t remove the package from the system dir. In case you want that system app removed, you´ll have to remove that package with a root file explorer a root package manager. But be warned, your playing with fire. I´ll mention known packages that show this behaviour down below the list and if it´s possible to get rid of them.
If you find yourself in the situation where you really have to delete packages from /system because it´s mandatory (microG) for what you´re going to mod, i recommend Debloater (Terminal Emulator) from Magisk repository along with Termux. Of course your device needs to be rooted to modify system, but if you get this far you are already rooted.
edit:
race conditions caused Debloater magisk module to not work as intended with my setup and microG, if you're experiencing problems remove packages with a root file manager and back them up manually if needed.
what you need:
- a computer, if you´re on a linux machine you´re a lucky bastard just download the latest android platform tools from your repository, you might have to enable AUR, depending on your distro. install it and your set to go.
- if you´re on a windows machine (commands maybe a little different), you´ll need adb and drivers. I´m a linux user, i have no experience with adb and windows, so if you might have, hit me up and explain whats needed with a link. I´ll happily add it here to make it easier for beginners.
- a usb cable with data connection, the original charging cable is fine
- activated USB debugging in developer settings. activate developer settings: go in to your system settings/phone info/software info/ hit buildnumber a couple times. this will activate the developer settings found in settings/ search for usb-debugging and activate it.
Note: don´t forget to disable usb-debugging after you´re finished and tested your system thoroughly, as leaving this activated is a security concern.
Let´s start with some useful commands related to adb debloat, type in your terminal:
adb shell
- this will connect your device after you confirmed the connection on your phone
pm list packages
- will show you all installed packages
pm list packages | sort
- will show you all installed packages sorted
pm list packages google
- will show you all packages with google in it, or for example: pm list packages samsung, will show you all packages with samsung in its name
dumpsys package package.name.example
- this will show you more information about the package
###
pm uninstall -k --user 0 package.name.example
- this will uninstall the package for you (--user 0) but it will keep (-k) its /data and /cache directories, (app updates won´t get removed)
pm uninstall --user 0 package.name.example
- this will uninstall the package for you (--user 0) and will delete the /data and /cache directories, app updates will get deleted. this command will free up some space
cmd package install-existing package.name.example
- this will reinstall the uninstalled package
- if you have more user accounts on your device and want to uninstall a package for a specific user just change the --user 0 command to for example: pm uninstall -k --user 1 package.name.example
###
pm disable-user --user 0 package.name.example
- this will deactivate the package
pm enable --user 0 package.name.example
- will activate the package again
pm list packages -d
- will show you disabled packages
- if you have more user accounts on your device and want to disable a package for a specific user just change the --user 0 command to for example: pm disable-user --user 0 package.name.example
###
reboot
- will reboot your device
this is just a tiny fraction of adb commands, to not make it more complicated than it is... you´ll mostly need the pm uninstall or pm disable command.
Feel free to use a package manager app to search for apps and their package names, this will give you additional information about the package, for example it´s icon, location path,...
I am using OpenApk from the f-droid store to search for packages or to disable or uninstall them by hand, unfortunately the app is unmaintained since 2 years or so and the uninstallation of apps doesnt work anymore on the S20+/Android 10, but disabling/enabling still works perfectly fine. It´s free, open-source, no tracking, no analytics, requests root for disabling/uninstalling. I also use xprivacylua, to search for apps by app name, package name and even UID, comes very handy. Also free, open-source, no tracking, no analytics, needs root and xposed/edxposed to run.
If these 2 apps don´t work for you, use your favourite package manager app.

UPDATE 01062020:
(Samsung and Android added much more malicious actions to apps in Android 10, but that was expected as peoples data is their currency, this is making protecting your data and privacy next to impossible.)
I added more apps to the list and regrouped them, sorry theres no such thing like a changelog.
Enjoy
UPDATE 11122020
Sorry for the long delay, this update contains more unneeded apps, especially apps that run with UID1000, i regrouped the list and cleaned a little bit up here and there. Currently running BTJ4.
There's are not many apps calling home now and these connections are easily blocked via DNS and firewall.
Note: essential functions like VoLTE are still working.
Stay tuned and enjoy
UPDATE 07022021
currently Android 11 CUA8, Samsung added some more apps and integrated "com.osp.app.signin" into the Settings menu, so if you encounter any problems with the setting menu force closing reinstall (cmd package install-existing com.osp.app.signin) (i commented the app in the list)
have fun
###########################################################
this is my list and these apps are safe to debloat without breaking your system, even though it´s safe, it doesn´t mean it won´t break features for you. This is how i use the phone, it will break features you are using if you just copy&paste this list! I highly encourage you to take my list only as a reference, do your homework and create your own list. This list was created on a virgin S20+ 5G SM-G986B/DS DBT on the latest ATCT/ATD3 1. April security patch, (edit: now on ATE6/1. May security patch) that i just got this week, after the first initial setup wizard there have been 444 apps been pre-installed, which is much more than on my previous devices. Depending on your carrier and region you might have some different bloat. I consider this as a soft debloat list, because there is still a lot of bloat from samsung and android left, beware that samsungs app store, Themes (both with malicious background behaviour/permission requests), Notes, smart things,... have inbuilt trackers and google analytics, which is a big **** move from samsung to add this to their own apps. This is my first android 10 device, so I didn´t go to hard on it on the first run, i wanna play around with it and see what´s changed. I will do some logging and I will update the list after a few day or weeks. Please understand that I didn´t add all the app names to the packages, it would be just too time consuming and definitely not possible for me at the moment, if it´s not clear from the package name use a package manager to find it out on your own, however i grouped them up, more or less accurate and added the pm uninstall -k --user command for your convenience, feel free to use your desired command.
With this list, ALL camera features are working, AR and even bixby dependent stuff like single take, barcode scanner but bixby vision depends on: com.google.android.gms and com.google.android.gsf so don´t uninstall them if you want this feature or switch to microG. (If a guide to install microG is needed by the community, i can write it down when i have time, but before requesting anything do your own research and inform yourself about it thoroughly, root is mandatory for microG)

amnesiadroid said:
this is my list and these apps are safe to debloat without breaking your system, even though it´s safe, it doesn´t mean it won´t break features for you. This is how i use the phone, it will break features you are using if you just copy&paste this list! I highly encourage you to take my list only as a reference, do your homework and create your own list. This list was created on a virgin S20+ 5G SM-G986B/DS DBT on the latest ATCT/ATD3 1. April security patch, that i just got this week, after the first initial setup wizard there have been 444 apps been pre-installed, which is much more than on my previous devices. Depending on your carrier and region you might have some different bloat. I consider this as a soft debloat list, because there is still a lot of bloat from samsung and android left, beware that samsungs app store, Themes (both with malicious background behaviour/permission requests), Notes, smart things,... have inbuilt trackers and google analytics, which is a big **** move from samsung to add this to their own apps. This is my first android 10 device, so I didn´t go to hard on it on the first run, i wanna play around with it and see what´s changed. I will do some logging and I will update the list after a few day or weeks. Please understand that I didn´t add all the app names to the packages, it would be just too time consuming and definitely not possible for me at the moment, if it´s not clear from the package name use a package manager to find it out on your own, however i grouped them up, more or less accurate and added the pm uninstall -k --user command for your convenience, feel free to use your desired command.
With this list, ALL camera features are working, AR and even bixby dependent stuff like single take, barcode scanner but bixby vision depends on: com.google.android.gms and com.google.android.gsf so don´t uninstall them if you want this feature or switch to microG. (If a guide to install microG is needed by the community, i can write it down when i have time, but before requesting anything do your own research and inform yourself about it thoroughly, root is mandatory for microG)

Why are you getting personal? I quoted a post because i had a question to ask. Show me where it says i MUST shorten my quotation to accomodate others thumbs or mouse scolling wheels? Grow up...

Hello all. Seems things are getting a little heated in here, so let's all just calm down a bit before things get really out of hand. To @chieco and @speedyjay, both of you are well seasoned veterans on XDA, and have had many contributing posts to the community, as well as a warning or two along the way from other moderators. Having said that, the simple fact of the matter is this. While there are no formal rules prohibiting the quoting of posts, no matter how long they are, it is always recommended to either use hide tags for the long posts, or just quote a portion of the post your most interested in, or just mention the member and ask your question. I am asking you kindly to put aside your bickering over quoted posts, or whatever other issues you might have with each other, and just keep the thread on topic, while being respectful to all members in the thread. As you can see, I added a hide tag to the long quoted post so as to keep the thread nice and neat. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter one and all, and stay safe out there.

Perfect. Thank you buddy. Although i was not bickering, i was merely stating that no rules were broken by myself. But that being said, what you have said sounds fair and will be taken on board.

Hey guys I've debloated my s20 based on the s10 threads and the s20 threads... is there a package that you guys know of that will break samsung store updates for samsung apps? I have updates pending but upon selecting the updates tab it force closes... I'm asking here because I don't know if its something I've debloated

the samsung app store doesn't have any dependencies that will break it completely when removed, but you'll need com.osp.app.signin for the log-in. so check if you have debloated the signin app, if that doesn't work out, your problems must be from somewhere else, try deleting the app data and cache and try again, if that doesn't work do a clean re-install of the 2 apps.
btw: i will push an update to the list soon

Does anyone know what the secure folder user number is?
I haven't enabled the secure folder yet, but if i do, i can imagine it will be like my S10 Plus was and certain apps i already removed from user 0 will still be listed in the secure folder. I think they need to be removed as a different user.

Thank you for share.

Thanks!

## UPDATE ##
I updatet the list and more to come, enjoy

you have to specify the package name of the application youre using
example, on google chrome, its com.android.chrome, not com.sec.android.app.chrome(afaik .sec is related to samsung apps)
though you can verify by finding it in app info or rummage through /[internal storage]/Android/data where it uses app's package names, or type pm list packages in adb shell
you can follow the tutorial from xda themselves here: https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
though alternatively, you can use debloat scripts to automate the process, but it requires flashing twrp which will trip knox if youre on stock(though most debloat scripts removes knox stuff aswell so idk), and you dont require root for it to work
