Even better:
- Click 7 times on your Build Version in the Info tab of your settings to enable developer mode
- Enable USB Debugging in the developer options
- Install Android SDK on your PC
- Connect phone via USB and click trust this PC
- open terminal
adb shell
pm uninstall --user 0 com.google.android.partnersetup
Boom, completely uninstalled.
While you’re at it, you can go ahead and uninstall all the other bloat shit you don’t want; Facebook services, Microsoft shit and other google stuff you don’t want.
Install Android SDK on your PC
Minimal ADB and Fastboot on Windows, on *nix just search for ‘adb’ in your package manager. No need for the whole SDK.
Even better with wireless debugging and some app manager or shizuku
yup, i have a bash alias that connects wireless first and then goes adb shell
Why? 🥺 you can just do wireless adb to the same device, and open the shell in termux 🫣
because i have to establish a connection to the IP of my phone first before being able to do adb shell
and i want that to be one single command. I made the adbwifi alias that connects to the ip and immediately does adb shell afterwards.
But you still need a PC? 🥺
oh you meant i should just adb from my phone onto my phone right?
Yeah no thanks, i like to use a real keyboard, big screen and the ability to copy paste super easily^^
That’s nothing i’d like to do on my phone.
Thanks dear, let me try to remove whatever this thing.
Even better👍🏼
Install UAD (Universal android debloater) on your PC. Has recommended and advanced lists to remove bloatware across various brands.
UAD doesn’t work with wayland atm afaik.
That’s why i went with the manual route.
Even with XWayland?
😅 In software, I am not an early adopter for such reasons. Being in consumer tech development, I prefer to be one step behind.
Everything i really need works flawless under wayland and i don’t need UAD.
So no loss for me. And i am sure i could make it work by playing around with ENV vars and exporting the right one. But i don’t want to waste my time on that because i will not use UAD anyway soooo
