Debloat Samsung Android Phones

Tested and working on Galaxy S9.

What?

This repository contains a list of adb commands to remove bloatware from Samsung Android devices. It removes all Samsung-related apps, Facebook services, Google apps, etc. You can still re-install any app you need. I've only tested this on my personal Samsung Galaxy S9.

How?

1. Enable Android "Developer Options"
2. Turn on "USB Debugging"
3. Download and start ADB - XDA Forums for your OS.
4. Connect your Samsung Android phone to your computer. Verify that adb sees your device and the daemon is running with the following command
   • adb devices
5. Enter shell with the following command
   • adb shell
6. Once in the device's shell, simply copy and paste all desired commands from commands.txt to remove the package. I encourage researching each package to make sure you don't need it.
