Remove/Uninstall Bloatware Apps from Android via ADB

In this guide, we will show you the steps to remove or uninstall Bloatware Apps from Android devices via ADB Commands. Near about every OEM packs in a few pre-installed apps on their devices. While they would tag them under productivity or utility domain, but more often than not it has nothing to do with aiding out the users. Rather, it’s mostly due to sponsorship or some contracts. So can’t we just uninstall these apps?

Well, this is where lies the major issue. The smartphone manufacturer treats this bloatware as system apps. So as opposed to user apps, you cannot simply uninstall them. However, there do exist some handy workaround through which you could easily remove or uninstall Bloatware Apps from your Android device via ADB Commands. And this guide shall make you aware of just that. So without further ado, let’s get started.

Remove/Uninstall Bloatware Apps from Android

The aforementioned task will be carried out via ADB commands. For that, you need to install Android SDK and enable Debugging, all of which are explained in depth below. Apart from that, we will also let you know how the command to find all the system apps installed on your device. Likewise, we will be sharing two different commands- the first one will uninstall the bloatware and remove all its data from your device.

The second command will only uninstall the app but their data would still remain on your device. Furthermore, we will also let you know how to disable a bloatware app. Rounding off this guide, we will show you the steps to reinstall the uninstalled bloatware apps as well. So without further ado, let’s get started with the guide to remove or uninstall Bloatware Apps from Android devices via ADB Commands.

STEP 1: Install Android SDK

First and foremost, you will have to install the Android SDK Platform Tools on your PC. This is the official ADB and Fastboot binary provided by Google and is the only recommended one. So download it and then extract it to any convenient location on your PC. Doing so will give you the platform-tools folder, which will be used throughout this guide.

STEP 2: Enable USB Debugging

Next up, you will have to enable USB Debugging on your device. This will make your device recognizable by the PC in ADB mode, which will then allow you to boot your device to Fastboot Mode. So head over to Settings > About Phone > Tap on Build Number 7 times > Go back to Settings > System > Advanced > Developer Options > Enable USB Debugging.

STEP 3: Get App Package Name

To uninstall a bloatware app, you will need to have its package name. There are quite a few ways through which you could get hold of the same, such as via Play Store. Do check out our guide on How to Get App Package Name on Android [3 Methods].

STEP 4: Verify ADB Connection

1. Connect your device to the PC via USB cable. Make sure USB Debugging is enabled.
2. Then head over to the platform-tools folder, type in CMD in the address bar, and hit Enter. This will launch the Command Prompt.
3. Type in the following command in the CMD window to check the ADB Connection:

   adb devices

   

4. You should now get the Device ID, signifying that the connection stands successful. [If there’s an issue, then please refer to our guide How to Fix All ADB and Fastboot Errors].

STEP 5: Enable ADB Shell

1. Type in the below command in the CMD window and hit Enter:

   adb shell

   

2. You shall now get your device codename, signifying that the shell connection has been established.

ADB Command to Get a List of All System Apps

Execute the below command in the CMD window to get a list of all the system installed apps:

pm list packages -s

ADB Command to Disable Bloatware Apps on Android

The below command will disable the bloatware app on your device. They will still remain on your device but wouldn’t be able to carry out any function- either in the foreground or background:

pm disable-user --user 0 <package name>

For example, if you wish to disable Pixel Launcher [the default system launcher on Pixel devices], whose app package name is com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher, then the above command will transform to

pm disable-user --user 0 com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher

ADB Command to Re-Enable Bloatware Apps on Android

You could use the below command to re-enable the bloatware app on your Android device:

pm enable -–user 0 <package name>

For example, if you wish to re-enable Pixel Launcher, whose app package name is com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher, then the above command will transform to

pm enable -–user 0 com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher

ADB Command to Uninstall Bloatware But Keep Data

The below command will remove the bloatware app from your device, but the data of that app will still remain on your device

pm uninstall -k --user 0 <package name>

For example, if you wish to uninstall Pixel Launcher but preserve data, with the app package name com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher, then the above command will transform to

pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher

ADB Command to Uninstall Bloatware and Remove its Data

The following command will uninstall the bloatware from your device and remove all the data of that app as well.

pm uninstall --user 0 <package name>

Say, if you wish to uninstall Pixel Launcher and remove its data as well, with the app package name com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher, then the above command will transform to

ADB Command to Reinstall Removed Bloatware Apps

In some instances, removing a bloatware app might make your device behave unexpectedly or the app might itself send Frequent Crash pop-ups. So the best bet in those cases is to reinstall that app. This could be done via the following command:

cmd package install-existing <package name>

For example, if you wish to reinstall Pixel Launcher, whose app package name is com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher, then the above command will transform to

pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher

All Android Devices Bloatware List

In this section, we will be listing out all the bloatware apps belonging to major OEMs. Do keep in mind that sometimes an app may misbehave, so it’s better to re-install it. Furthermore, it is up to the user to verify the credibility and usage of each before uninstalling them. Droidwin and its members wouldn’t be held responsible in case of a thermonuclear war, your alarm doesn’t wake you up, or if anything happens to your device and data by executing the below commands.

HeyTap Apps in Color OS/Realme UI

On Oppo and Realme devices, you will find some apps belonging to HeyTap. Since most of these apps are system bloatware apps, we would advise you to first disable them and use your device for a couple of minutes. If there are no negative consequences, then you may proceed ahead and remove those bloatware apps from your Oppo/Realme device. [On the other hand, if you do face any issues, then just re-enable that app].

com.heytap.browser | Stock Browser
com.heytap.cloud | HeyTap Cloud
com.heytap.datamigration
com.heytap.habit.analysis
com.heytap.market | App Market
com.heytap.mcs | System Messages
com.heytap.openid
com.heytap.pictorial
com.heytap.themestore
com.heytap.usercenter
com.heytap.usercenter.overlay

Remove Qualcomm Bloatware

These Qualcomm apps are used for testing and debugging purposes. On a personal note, I wouldn’t recommend uninstalling these apps as they might come in handy under certain circumstances. Still, the choice is all yours.

How to Fix Failure[Delete failed Internal Error]

Some users (especially with Realme device owners) are reportedly facing the Failure[Delete failed Internal Error]. So I did an investigation and found out that the OEM has restricted the removal of some system apps. To bypass this, you will need to have a rooted device.

If you are already rooted, then you may proceed with the below set of commands to fix this issue and remove bloatware from your Android device. Make sure to replace AppName and AppID accordingly. Furthermore, when you enter the below ‘su’ command, you shall get a SuperUser prompt from Magisk onto your device, don’t forget to tap on Grant.

adb shell 
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
rm -rf /system/app/AppName.apk
rm -rf /data/data/AppID
mount -o ro,remount /system
exit

So this was all from this guide on how to uninstall or remove bloatware from Android devices via ADB Commands. We will be constantly updating this guide with more commands, so don’t forget to bookmark it. Likewise, if you come across any bloatware that is missing from this list, then please let us know in the comments section below, along with your device name.
