We currently have a few problems with regard to the internal location of the phones since a good number of mobile phones, even the most accessible ones, it already comes with 64 GB of series, even 128 GB is suspended. This means that you don't have to do a lot of measuring to have enough space; however this can be dangerous when installing heavy games. Of course, it is not easy to know all the possible alternatives disconnect previously used applications.
Current mobiles are running with sufficient storage, of course, but this doesn't guarantee a lack of space by just downloading a few games and a few movies. And when we consider that there are manufacturers that charge their phones for a large number of applications, and that many of them are impaired, have no storage options at all. Mainly because they are not the only space released, and device resources.
Let's say you have an Android phone that you would like to turn on from certain applications you don't want them to keep working. Of course, first we will try to disable the bulk of the processes and, if that is not possible, we will delete the programs by the process using ADB. None of the other cases will require ROOT or admin access.
First thing: disable what you can do
It is true that by disabling (or disabling) applications the space they have on our phone is not available, but limits its functionality and the use of resources. Also, since it's always tricky to modify the operating system, or the ones that Android doesn't allow to uninstall, it's best to first access its malfunction. It is a simple and quick process that is worth it; but there is a lot to go from app to app.
To disable program features you must do the following:
- Access your Android Settings and look for the & # 39; Applications & # 39;
- Click on the menu and select something like & # 39; All apps & # 39 ;. This will show the apps downloaded and installed by you and their operating system.
- Find everything you want to disable. To do this, manually scroll down the list, enter each application and press the & # 39; Disable & # 39; A message like & # 39; Disable & # 39; or & # 39; Disable & # 39; may appear on your phone.
- If you disable the application it will stop working again it will disappear from your desk and in the app drawer. You can also find it whenever you want to easily power it.
As we mentioned, it is limiting the space the application used on the phone can receive, but it is always explained that you have started this step since there is a good chance of removing the required apps or services from the phone. However, the manufacturer may not stumble upon certain programs, such as a browser or mail client. If you don't mind making this software work, there's a way to get rid of it without getting ROOT: you only need a computer with ADB running.
Remove programs previously used with ADB
This method requires some information because it works with developer tools. In addition, and as & # 39; we play & # 39; with program features, it's very easy enter something needed for the cell phone to work
You can delete pre-installed programs or program programs using ADB and the developer function called & # 39; Shell & # 39 ;, a series of text commands that are appropriate to interact with installed apps. It is the exact ADB Shell that we will use to delete applications, but you should always keep that in mind the active partition installation is removed, not the system itself
To deactivate program features you must do the following:
- Go to system settings, enter your phone information, get software data and click ten times for the integration number: the developer options will be activated.
- Go to the new developer menu and get & # 39; USB Debugging & # 39; Use it.
- Now it's time to install & # 39; Aplatform & # 39; Android to your ADB computer. You can download it from this Mac link and depart from here with Linux. If you have a Windows computer you can download it with everything you need.
- Open the Platform-Tools folder or install the Windows package.
- Open the terminal window (type CMD in the Windows search engine or search the app on all system tools on Mac and Linux) and go to a folder you didn't define, & # 39; Platform-Tools & # 39;
- Connect your Android to a computer via USB on the screen and accept usage from the computer with the RSA key that appears.
- Go to the terminal window and type
- Once the connected device appears you can continue the process. Alternatively, uninstall your Android and reconnect it; later retrieval.
- Write
adb shell pm packs
- You will see that all applications installed on your phone appear with their package name. Find the app you want to delete and type
adb shell pm uninstall -k – package name & # 39; package & # 39;
- You must change the & # 39; package-name & # 39; into the application ID you want to delete. Once you agree, the app will have spread to your phone.
- Repeat the process with each program you wish to remove, but always be careful what you remove: Your phone may not work properly if you delete an important application or service.
A good helpful tip is to know which package you should remove to search for an app on Google Play. Access from a browser and find an existing app, for example Google Duo. You will see that in the URL the package name appears after & # 39; id = & # 39 ;: you need to copy it (ourselves com.google.android.apps.tachyon) and paste it into the ADB Shell command.
adb shell pm uninstall -k –user 0 com.google.android.apps.tachyon
In this way Google Duo will be removed from active phone separations. It is not permanent removal because the app will run out again when you install an update or perform a system deletion; even though you will have the option to remove it again simply because it is a repeat of the ADB Shell process. Of course, we emphasize the sensitivity of this process: only do it when you think about risk.
