In CN version you can active the app list in the watch, if you have not already enabled "Launcher App List", go to "More Settings" -> "About" -> Keep clicking legal information till you see countdown to zero. Once that is done, you will have the Lab link below. Click on Lab and select "Launcher AppList". This will restart your Launcher. Now go to the Right most app from your watch face, you will see the Launcher.
This method allows you to activate the app list also on the American versions so as to use the third-party app!
Connect the watch to your computer via USB and access via ADB (install ADB Drivers as needed)
Open command prompt or shell
Enter the commands :
Code:
adb shell
> /sdcard/launcher_config.ini
am force-stop com.huami.watch.launcher
After Launcher restart you can go to the Right most app from your watch face and you will see the App List.
Thank you very much! US firmware 1.3.1, this did work. I was able to install and use AmazfitCNTimer.apk without installing Chinese firmware.
# SEE EDIT!
On 1.3.1m watch model a1612 your instructions return:
Code:
adb shell
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5038 *
* daemon started successfully *
[email protected]:/ # /sdcard/launcher_config.ini
/sdcard/launcher_config.ini
/system/bin/sh: /sdcard/launcher_config.ini: not found
Further, if I proceed to force-stop the launcher does restart but of course there is no app launcher as expected.
# EDIT
Just realized I needed to include the '>' to create the file. I'll take noob mistakes for 500, Alex.

you can open with explorer the watch and create the "launcher_config.ini" file .
After the file creation you need to restart the watch, can you try this method?

Hello there. I was using this metod on last 1.3.2b update and it was working.
Now i've received 1.3.3a, that should have app list by default.
But it desapparead from the watch, and also using this method, i have no more app list.
any idea?
PS:
Amazfit PACE US
Jun 2017 firmware 1.3.3a was supposed to include the app list as a feature.
I tried to enable it by going in to the menu > About > Legal and tapping 5 times but there was no app list in the new Lab menu.
So I tried the adb shell command and it worked.
To reverse this, do we just delete the launcher_config.ini?
Also, I tried to pull that file and look at it but couldn't:
adb pull /sdcard/launcher_config.ini c:/temp
Got no errors, but got no file in C:\temp.

In my search for a solution to disabling CABL on this phone, I wanted to take a look into all the LG hidden tests/settings. As the Verizon variant doesn't have this apk, I took it from an AT&T build, deodexed it and it seems to run fine on the VS980. I haven't been able to launch it from the dialer, but using the below will get you there. If you don't know what these tests or settings do, then you're better off leaving them alone, as there is the potential to mess something up.
Code:
am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.lge.hiddenmenu/com.lge.hiddenmenu.HiddenMenu
were you able to turn off cabl from it? only thing people were saying was the high temperature screen dimming.

What is the dialer code that you need to access this hidden menu?
Can I just run the APK to install? Because I'm getting an error trying to do it that way.

No, it needs to be installed as a system app. As for the dialer code, it won't work because the corresponding broadcast intent wasn't built in the vzw ROM. If I have some free time I could do that, but it really is easy to launch it via command I listed above.

Is there any command on cmd.exe that would allow me to run apk.file after installing it .. like
adb install myapp.apk
This command will only install myapp onto the emulator and I have to manually run this application from the emulator (by performing single click on its icon).
What I want to do is use a command which not only installs the application but also run it or open it in the device after installation.

Hi guys, i was searching for a way to hide the navigation bar without any app that will require you buying it or it consuming battery and after finding a couple of threads on the topic i thought of sharing my findings and also as a reference to go back to in case i forget how to. This is also good for eliminating or reducing screen burn caused by the bars on Amoled screens.

Type the following commands in adb/fastboot environment (adb shell) on your PC after connecting the phone in file transfer mode and usb debugging is on:
· Hide Status Bar only type:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.status=*
· Hide Navigation Bar only type:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*
· Hide Both Bars type:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*
· Back to normal/default state:
adb shell settings put global policy_control null*
--------------------------------------------
Updates: (15/5/2017):
+ Immersive in all apps except certain apps
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=apps,-"app location",-"another app location"
Notes:
1. You can get the app location by going to "system/data/data" using any file browser with root, the location should start with the app folder name "com.appname"
Ex: com.whatsapp
2. Remove quotation marks(" ")when adding the location of the app also add an apostrophe(,) if you are adding more than one app and when typing the code there is no space after the apostrophe.

By the way this method works on all rom versions i have tested it on Nougat and all commands work. Good

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Updates: (17/5/2017):
Apps Identified to not play well with navigation and status bar hidden and how to exclude them(To be updated accordingly):
Apps List:
*Whatsapp(When typing the status bar needs to be there to see what others wrote at the same time)
*Wechat(When typing the status bar needs to be there to see what others wrote at the same time)
*Youtube(When typing the status bar and navigation bar need to be there)
*Hangouts(When typing the status bar needs to be there to see what others wrote at the same time)
---------------
Code: adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=apps,-com.google.android.youtube,:immersive.status=apps,-com.whatsapp,-com.tencent.mm,-com.google.android.youtube,-com.google.android.talk
---------------
P.S: If you want to use these commands directly on your phone without a PC you need first to be rooted, next use any shell terminal to insert the code but remove the "adb shell" part.
So in the terminal app for example if you wanted to hide both bars you type the following:
>su
>settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*
Thank you for this info, also I just tested it using Android terminal and it works well. I don't always have PC nearby to test things, very nice.

Just found the answer from https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/themes/how-to-enable-true-immersive-modes-t3554299
wilhexm said:
Sure!
for example, if u want to enable some apps
Code:
settings put global policy_control immersive.full=com.chrome.beta,com.google.android.apps.magazines,com.medium.reader
or if u want immersive full except some apps
Code:
settings put global policy_control immersive.full=apps,-com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher,-com.twitter.android,-com.google.android.apps.photos,-com.google.android.GoogleCamera,-com.google.android.keep,-com.android.settings
The difference is the "-" before [app full name]

In this case you can add app names or 'apps,-*app name* to enable or set full immersive except some apps

Hi isaak, to remove the navigation bar without root you need to take the build.prop file from the System folder using adb commands "Pull" and "Push" (If you search online you will find alot of threads on how to use the command) edit the file by adding the code: " qemu.hw....." to it on your PC and then returning the file to it's place on the phone. I am sorry i can't give you a step by step on how to do this because i am travelling, if i have time i might right a tutorial on how to do this. Good Luck

Good question, we use apps like LMT launcher or GMD gesture control instead of the navigation bar which wastes a good portion of the screen. I used both and i love both of them but i think gesture navigation is the future. Now since Nougat update i stopped using both of these apps because it's a headache to simply root and change the build.prop to simply use both apps, instead i opted to hide the status and navigation bar. You should try both apps you will enjoy your phones' screen more. :good:

The app I want to remove the MOST is the "Visual Voicemail". That POS keeps poping up crap and I can't seem to get rid of it.
LG L4 LS991
From my research, it should have a package name with vvm in it, but I just can't find it.
Does anyone know what name it hides under?

Try listing all the packages
Code:
pm list packages
Or search package name which contains some word
Code:
pm list packages -f someName

I think
Code:
pm list packages -f | grep "some part of a name"
may also be helpful.
But I've tried that and still can't find it.
Also did a
Code:
pm list packages -f
then cut and pasted the output into an editor and slowly inspected each listed item.
Here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=710698
it says the app will be in a package called sprint_core.apk.
I did a
Code:
find . -name sprint_core.apk
and nothing.
Then tried
Code:
grep -ir "voicemail" .
from the system directory.
It got a few hits, but nothing looks right.
I'm thinking maybe the
Code:
ps
command will show me running tasks and from that I can figure it out.

Edit:
Also keep on mind that it can be also

FOUND IT!
It was com.coremobility.app.vnotes
How: Did a
Code:
ps
and looked for likely candidates.
vnotes looked promising. then did a
Code:
ps | grep vnotes
and noted the PID (tried to do a kill, not allowed).
On the phone I killed the process and reexecuted the ps - the PID changed.
Did other stuff on the phone, the PID did not change, killed it on the phone again, PID changed again.
Removed it with the pm command, looked for it on the phone... gone!

So you got your new shiny realme device but you hate bloatware or want to disable system apps so you can use 3rd party apps instead?
Follow the steps below:
THIS DOES NOT REQUIRE ROOT HOWEVER MAKE SURE NOT TO DISABLE IMPORTANT SYSTEM APPS. WIPE DATA/FORMATTING RE-ENABLES ALL SYSTEM APPS. THIS DOES NOT MESS WITH OTAs.
WHAT YOU NEED:-
ADB/Fastboot Drivers
Windows: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
Linux: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-linux.zip
DEBLOAT:-
1. Enable developer options by tapping on the build number 7 times and enable USB Debugging.
2. Plug in your phone.
3. Goto the folder where ADB is installed, hold shift and right click, and click on open command window here(windows).
4. Type
in CMD
Code:
adb devices
in Powershell
Code:
./adb devices
.
5. This should return the ID of your device and show if its authorised. Enable debugging Promt on your Phone if it shows unauthorised (allow this computer).
6. Type
in cmd
Code:
adb shell
in Powershell
Code:
./adb shell
.
7. This should display a prompt, something like RMXxxxx:/ $
8. To uninstall type
Code:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 <name of the package>
To disable type
Code:
pm disable-user --user 0 <name of the package>
eg: pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.heytap.browser / pm disable-user --user 0 com.heytap.browser
9. Done!
To reinstall uninstalled apps type
Code:
pm install-existing <name of the package>
To enable disabled apps type
Code:
pm enable <name of the package>
Some apps do not uninstall such as market and gamecenter, disabling is the only option.
Very Helpful, Thanks. I debloated my realme 7 and also disabled the Realme security analysis app so now no more ads popup after everytime installing a new app from playstore?

thank uu, it worked:good:
Could someone post a list of the apps that can be safely removed?
Some handy tips down the road.
While using power shell just add ./ infront of all adb commands and everything will work.
If error showing while connecting through USB debug "Cant Allow USB debugging Because an app is obscuring when connect to your pc..." Just disable assistive ball and Floating windows privacy > display over other apps.< Uncheck everything.
$ ./adb shell pm list packages < List everything installed
$ adb shell pm list packages -d < List all the disabled package
Can be safely and shud be Disabled packages:
package:com.heytap.cloud < Cloud service better alternates avail.
package:com.android.nfc < By default disabled as device doesn't have hardware.
package:com.facebook.services < Racist Biased Snitch Company will leech on your data and create chaos in your country.
package:com.facebook.system < No idea why its installed and running in back
package:com.facebook.appmanager < Always takes side of Mighty
package:com.heytap.browser < This is main source of adverts in phone only reason i needed to go through this.

Hello, security analysis app is from Google side can be disabled inside google settings. Only way Realme shows adverts is through default Browser which can be disabled. if there's in any package which can be disabled or uninstalled for realme analysis please share name.
Thank you
I personally disabled these apps

I recently debloated many packages, but found the realme gallery3d to be useful. It has face sorting feature, which I found to be very nice.
However I lost the capability to sort face after deleting a random package, and I dont know which one it is.
Does anyone know which package is associated with this service?

About your first attachment: how to know what path (e.g. com.heytap.browser) represents what app? I want to delete the weather app. How can i know what path is this?
Thank you all for these posts btw.
Edit: omg, last seen May 30, 2021 . Can somebody else answer this question?

Not the path but the app package name is that matters, you can download an app like this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.csdroid.pkg&hl=es&gl=US
Be careful which app you choose, disabling a system dependent app may cause your device not working properly or even booting at all. You might need to perform a factory reset or flash again the firmware to solve it.

Don't. Disabling weather app on RUI 2.0 causes issues. You'll have to format data to recover.
