Hi All,
Family member has just gotten a Samsung M20. I am responsible for the initial set up etc.
It seems like a nice phone, given the price range.
I have read that Samsung phones usually have a lot of 'bloatware', and that removing the unused/bloatware helps improve the performance of the phone. Thoughts?
What is the method to remove 'bloatware' from the M20? is there a step-by-step process I can follow? any helpful links? is there a list of bloatware safe to remove?
Since its a new phone, I would like to ask users what tweaks and tips they might have to share.
Overall, please share any helpful advice for a first time user.
Thanks in advance
Edit : Just saw this "Unlike the older Samsung phones, thankfully the Galaxy M20 doesn't pack the usual bloatware. And the good news is that you can also uninstall a couple of apps like Daily Hunt and Samsung Internet, Samsung Email, and a few others."
So I guess I would like to know how to remove Daily Hunt and Samsung Internet, Samsung Email.
Thanks

I wanted a change in design,style,performance,look,clarity,size..so I went for this from http://dx.com/p/samsung-galaxy-note...capacitive-and-gps-white-16-gb-122846?item=12 .No model to beat this right now.May think little expensive but it worth for the price.What I want with a Smart tablet is available with this. I think it is advisable to avoiding spend more when this is available compared to other models.
Is there no issue in upgrading to android 4.1? Pls help as i am planning to upgrade my unit. I had issues on upgrading with my old S1. The USB connectivity was disabled. Anyone can share answer with my question? Thanks much.
I love my Samsung Note! I honestly couldn't live without it.

Hello guys,
First off I would like to say a short disclaimer that I have very very little (none) experience with rooting phones or such and am completely at the mercy of your expertise.
So having said that I accidentally deleted a number of audio files (voice recordings mostly) which are very valuable to me and realistically to my business are quite crucial. Upon looking through and checking my options (as I didn't back these ones up yet and didn't have them uploaded to cloud) it looks like a root and then file recovery attempt is my best bet.
Now I have tried to root via kingo and a couple other programs with no success and everything comes across as root failed; and the last resort for me is to pay this one software program company $40.00 to have them root it. But that is just as good as me doing it in my books with the right program.
So my question to guys is, is a samsung SM-g925w8 galaxy s6 edge rootable when updated to version 6.0.1 and what are some good programs for doing so?
I am not confident enough to do the whole flashing thing and manual method of rooting and really have no idea what that would entail and am looking for your guys' opinions and expertise to help me out on this one. In my (limited) experience with this community you all are very helpful and work together to solve issues for others.
Please advise
Thanks!

Hi,
until today I used a Samsung Galaxy S4 mini on which are preinstalled some apps that I like: now I have a new smartphone and a tablet (both non-Samsung) on which I would like to install the same Apps of the S4 but for many of them, APPStore does not allows me to install them, not even using Apptoide, or if they are installed then they do not work.
I looked for the equivalent on AppStore but I do not find anything that satisfies me completely (perhaps because of habit).
Is there any way to use Samsung's Apps on non-Samsung systems (without having to root), perhaps by installing a library or some other special software?
Thank you
Ermanno
P.S. I did not find the right forum to put my question, please Mr, moderator move it to the right one.

I've never really got into this area but, I believe that one or more of the following threads/links should, at least, be helpful to give you a good start for what you are looking to do. Don't be afraid to ask for some member guidance within one of them too.
https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-port-oem-specific-apps-to-other-devices/

Side Note: What your looking to do is what's called App Porting. Not all apps from one device to another will work. If you look at the S4, I would "guesstimate" that 25% of those apps are Firmware dependent, 25% are dependent on other apps, 25% are dependent on one or more of a devices Architecture, Android Version, DPI, SDK, etc... and the last 25% are not as dependent and may/should work on any device. There's more to it but, this is just a brief summary.
I would recommend trying to gather more information from the above links and ask for some member guidance within either one of the above threads/links or another thread that's similar to the question at hand.
Good Luck!

Hi guys I am new to this forum been recommended by a friend to join as i need help in rooting my Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus.
I have attempted to root the phone twice couple of months ago and bricked twice, ever since i haven't attempt it but i would like to attempt it again.

Root s9+ (g965fxxsbetg8)
Hi. I also have a Samsung Galaxy S9+ with latest basedband [G965FXXSBETG8] one UI Version 2.1 and wished to ROOT it for bloatware removal. There are a number of sites that offer the various methods to ROOT your phonew and I have tried in the past to ROOT an S7+ and an S8+ but spent an awful lot of time trying, following all the various guidelines but to no avail. I finally went to oneclickroot.com and for a small charge they ROOTED my S9+ perfectly. One of the reasons for going to them was that they guarantee rooting your phone or your money back and they don't take your money until ROOTING is complete and your happy with it. I've now debloated loads of "useless to me" apps etc and my phone is running beautifully smooth and fast. Of course it's up to you and I know that at XDA Developers you can find a way to do this yourself but at least you know where to go if you are in doubt doing it yourself. Regards.

Thanks for your reply i just had a look at oneclickroot.com they are charging $40 to root the phone however the reviews are not that great do you recommend any other website offering root services. I am bit worried it might stuff up the phone or if there is an malware.
Rooting S9+
Hi Kevin. As I stated in my original post at least oneclickroot.com do guarantee that you don't pay for it until it's done. Following the EXACT spec for your phone they guarantee to root it or no cost to you. They do offer support for so long after root if you change your mind too. I only got as far as oneclickroot.com before deciding to "give them a go" as I've used them before in the past without any problems or malware etc. Note: I do not work for them in case you are wondering. Regards.
