De-Bloater MIUI 8 China/Global Dev Roms [Recovery Scripts] - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion

Background:
This is divided in 2 parts, depending on user requirements.
1. Flashing Miui_8_De-Bloat-Mover.zip will move/backup all bloats to Bloats folder in /system.
2. Flashing Miui_8_De-Bloat-Deleter.zip will delete Bloats folder, which can be done manually using any root file explorer or twrp recovery. It is done so that a user can move any required app by him to default location to restore it, as not all users requirements are same.
3. New Miui_8_De-Bloat-Mover_Extreme.zip is added. Some features are also removed by this one. See the list for more details.

Requirements:
1. Redmi note 3 (kenzo) on global/china dev rom.
2. TWRP Recovery
Downloads:
Miui_8_De-Bloat-Mover.zip
Miui_8_De-Bloat-Deleter.zip
Miui_8_De-Bloat-Mover_Extreme.zip
Procedure:
* If Clean Flash, Flash the rom and any required mods then boot to system, set it up, once done, reboot to TWRP and flash the Scripts. (Why?)
The scripts remove default keyboard so you may not be able to enter password when asked to unlock device. To prevent it, either move LatinIME/SogouInput back to its place or first setup the rom then de bloat it.
1. Reboot to TWRP Recovery.
2. Flash Miui_8_De-Bloat-Mover.zip
3. Use Twrp recovery to move any required app to its default location.
4. Flash Miui_8_De-Bloat-Deleter.zip
5. Hit Thanx on the Thread or your phone will brick
6. Reboot the phone.

More space in system so some apps can be moved to system by link2sd.
More free ram for better multitasking.
More battery backup.
These apps are safe to remove, some people (like me) don't use pre-installed apps (music, browser etc).

I would've definitely tried it, but that would break my weekly OTA updates. So, sorry I can't try it right now, maybe sometime later. But, still thanks for the good work. BTW, I too don't use browser, video, audio player etc.

Being on dev rom enables to download ota from miui website and flash manually using twrp. No need of updater app.
Flash the rom and the ota, then any other mod you want, once everything done, debloat.

Well, you are right. I can do that too. But, I'll have to clean flash ROM every time an update arrives. Dirty flashing won't work, right?

Dirty flash will work. I today updated 6.9.9-6.9.15
Also flashing xposed and super su will also prevent ota. You have to flash complete rom on every ota regardless.

I've managed to install systemless supersu and xposed and still successfully updated to 6.9.15 from 6.9.9. Well, I can download the whole update every time, but I would prefer OTAs. So, I will try your scripts for sure now.
And btw, is anyone else facing lags on the dev roms. The first time I flashed it there were none. Then, I moved to CM, RR, Exodus, Hexagon..... and after that when I came back to dev rom; because they were all lagging in gaming, even after trying radon kernel; the lag too cam along with it. So, now MIUI dev is also stuttering while gaming, which was not the case when I first booted it on my device. And, I flashed it through the fastboot rom, so there shouldn't be any problem.

Yesterday i got bootloop after manually uninstal gapps. Only gapps.
And I think this script will make bootloop too, because almost system apps are removed.

Nice De-bloater script. Yesterday I applied this on my Global Dev 6.9.20 and worked perfectly. No fc issues till now.
@Sudeep Duhoon, by any chance, can you create another script for removing some Google apps like hangouts, photos, drive, gmail? And if I want to restore any app(after flashing part 1 script), then all I have to do is copy from /system and put into /system/data-app?

Whole update is not needed everytime, you can download ota packages from website too.
Flash whole rom (6.9.9) then the ota (6.9.15) then any mod, and de bloat.

Suppose a new update comes 6.9.23, flash 6.9.9(whole rom as you have the zip), download ota 6.9.9-6.9.23 or 6.9.15-6.9.23, and flash accordingly.
It takes 1 more min to do this but gives more control to user (build.prop tweaks etc can also be used now).

Some GApps can't be removed like Google App. So you will get bootloop. Non of these are removed in these scripts and tested 4 times by me. Also If you get bootloop, just copy the required app from Bloats folder to original location and everything will be as before.
It is a good habit to make a backup before doing anything.

These will be some force close errors. As clean master, yellow pages etc. are removed, respective settings in security and dialer app will force close but that's obvious.
Sure, I will make a GApps remover too.
Yes, to restore an app, say system/priv-app/name, just copy the folder from system/Bloats/priv-app/name to system/priv-app

err.... Just one more question.
Actaully can we use miui without all the xiaomi services and use Google apps instead? It seems xiaomi services are bundled everywhere in the stock ROM. Can debloating helping me to get rid of that?
FYI, I am using kenzo with stock miui 8

Xposed for lollipop(working?!?)

It's released
Thread link- here
I got it working..
Post #6
May be we should make a list of what modules are currently working on our lollipop moto e to keep a track.
Some one reported that xinternal SD is working.
This type of list will help all. What do u say??
Any one who got a module working can report here.
I read the comments youtube adway was working,,I didn't tested it on my moto e,will report and update the status soon..
Sure if anyone finds it can report I don't have any problems..
Not working on moto e 5.0.2 tried it yeterday, it flashes correctly via twrp but when u try to install apk it never installs, system becomes very very laggy.

It isnt working.... ie. framework not installing
and side effects are:
-All my apps on sd went missing(after restoring system partition i got it back)
-storage space was low it asked to clear out 250mb of space from system.....
-Lagged (maybe due to the storage issue in system)
anyway some 1 posted this:
Working on my OnePlus one. It wasn't working at first, but I got it by doing this
1. Flash framework
2. Install apk
3. Go back to recovery and flash the framework again

and other post
Using nexus 5 , purity ROM (lollipop version) tried two ways:
way 1:
1. flash the zip
2.install apk
shows xposedbridge.jar active , app_process doesnt
way 2:
1.install apk
2.mount system
3.flash zip
shows xposedbridge.jar active , app_process doesnt
i understand many people have it , but wrote it so you will save some time doing the steps i did.
EDIT - SOLUTION FOUND :
the solution is to install random modul (i choose chromepie) apply it and reboot - have fun using xposed

Can some1 try this?
It wasn't working when I first installed,I got full storage and phone lagged...
what I do to get it working was to reboot to recovery and factory reset,after reset I rebooted the phone,it took about 10-15 mins,after booting up I rebooted to recovery and flashed the supersu then xposed zip again,after reboot everything was normal no storage space error or anything,I installed the apk and all is working fine as of now..

Thanks mate for reporting. Even i had the lag issue. All apps on sd disappeared and a notification of 250 mb storage or something like that poped up and i went back to KK. I'll flash lollipop tomorrow. And report it here.
some modules that work good right now:
http://www.xda-developers.com/xposed-modules-to-install-right-now-on-lollipop/
App Settings [Lollipop Alternative by rovo89] [1]:
This was by far one of my favorite Xposed modules back when I wasn’t running Lollipop, and certainly the one I missed the most. With this baby you can change DPI per app (which allows you to keep whatever DPI you want on the rest of the SystemUI), as well as the application’s font scale, immersive mode, RAM pinning, and insistent notifications for those that don’t want to miss their valentine’s texts (and lose their heads over it).
Xposed GEL Settings [1][2]:
For those fans of the “pure Google experience”, this module can let you further customize your Google Launcher by letting you hide the search bar or individual applications, change grid, icon and text sizes, remove labels and more. It doesn’t make it quite as flexible as Nova, but it’s definitely a good module to have for those that love the Google integration of their launcher, and the cleanness and optimization of it.
RootCloak [1]:
Some apps detect root and either prevent access or limit your features as a preemptive method for security. While it is understandable some might want to further fortify their application, us XDA tinkerers can be left out of services due to this. This module hides root for the apps you choose, simple as that. We can’t specifically tell you what to use this module for, but if you’ve had problems like this before, look no further.
Advanced Power Menu+ [1]: This module lets you customize the power menu of your phone to add or remove items in any order you want. There are extra reboot options (soft boot, recovery boot, bootloader), a screenshot option, a quick-dial to call whoever, some connection toggles and a handy flashlight. I always have advanced power menus on my phones, and an Xposed module alternative is much easier than flashing additional zip’s. If this doesn’t work for you, the new Lollipop Power Menu module might.
XToast [1]:
This was one of my favorites back then, as it lets you add the Toast notification’s app origin into the message box by adding the corresponding app’s icon. That in itself makes it useful, but you can also customize said icon and add the name, or change the toast style back to older versions. The duration, transparency and where it appears also can be chosen. Basically, toasts are at your control to make them more informative and personal. You won’t know how awesome it is until you try it!
Lollipop Notification Ticker [1]:
This one was meant to restore the ticker on the status bar that informed you of the contents of your latest notifications. It was made before Xposed for Lollipop came out, which was a daring move that worked… partially. According to reports, it breaks heads-up notifications alongside fixing the ticker. If you dislike those in the first place, though, you might want to give it a try.
Native Clip board [1]:
Copying and pasting on smartphones was never the most fluid thing, nor the most consistent. This module adds clip-board management straight to the text-selection menu, and it allows you to theme the new menu, black-list apps and further customize it. If you happen to be working on your phone because there’s a document you might need to edit on the bus, this will prove useful.
BootManager [1]:
A must-have to those that want their device to be slim and efficient on boot. This module allows you to select which applications run when you power up your device, and those that don’t get allowed to do so usually stay dormant until you fire them up. If you’ve got a good amount of things that you don’t need right away but are hesitant to greenify, this can alleviate the dilemma of your user experience.

Deleting both caches (cache + Dalvik cache) immediately after flashing before reboot does it for me. Everytime.
Without that: lags, space issues, always a restore necessary to get a working device

Empty galaxy rom...
I just wanted to let you know that I have it installed and have been messing with it for about an hour. Everything seems to be running quickly. So far the only thing I have noticed is that it seems to be running a little warm. I will report back with anything else I come across. Good work!!
I've been working on the theme but the ui is new to me. Still finding stuff. Thanks though @ITSAHERO hopefully as it set in it evened out the temp.
Couple questions
Hello there,
I am interested in installing the completely debloated version you did. Is the IR Blaster and the finger print unlocking the device working? Thanks in advance!!
I haven't tried the ir but finger print works. And you're very welcome.
I'll try the ir and report back. I'm in the middle of an install so it'll be a few..
Added
IR: Tested and fully operational
Best rom I've used.
Hi, downloaded the empty ROM on my tab s t700. Personally I'm not a fan of Nova so I tried installing google now launcher but it doesn't work for me? It installs and stuff alright but it just force closes on me. Now, I'm coming to this ROM from ironrom on which I was running google now launcher but I just can't get it to work on here. Am I the only one a facing this problem?
I'll download and try and report back.
Added-
Yes. You're right.
I removed Google search, sometimes I use yahoo so I like it out.
To use Google Now you need to first install Google search and go through initial setup then download and install Google Now.
The OP has been updated and the Empty Galaxy version has been updated to 1.3.
I had hoped to add a theme to it but it's taking more time than I thought to find everything.
If I get to a usable point with it I'll upload.
The rom ive been waiting for.. thanks dev.. what kernel suits best with it? Can you recemmend any?
I've been using the stock kernel so I can't really recommend yet. I'll give what's available a try today.
I'm using sky-high kernel with this rom, I have to say, my tab S 8.4 has never been smoother, almost as quick as my nexus 9.
Is this a US firmware? I have been using it and lost access to wifi channels 12 and 13. The tab could not detect my home network anymore. Europe here... Thx for all the work you've put into this.
Brgds
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda premium
Everything has been working well for me with the stock kernel. Great ROM. :good:

My apologies, that didn't even cross my mind. This is a backup ran through a rom kitchen and cleaned up. But it was an ota so I've got to assume it's US. If I get a chance I'll look into it.
Best RoM used yet! Keep up the good work.
Thanks.. I'm not sure where I'm at with development on the tab s. Glad the roms are getting used. I'm still waiting for the official nl2 download. My favorite thing about the tab is having a device not connected to a carrier! And it really makes it so we don't need very many apps to start.

Why would you remove "enhancedusbux.apk"? It's the USB Connection app... And "LiveWallpapers.apk" and "LiveWallpapersPicker.apk"? "SimContacts.apk"? "FaceLock.apk"? Many of the "s*it" in this debloat flashable zip are not actually bloat, they are features, important features.
Indeed I' m gonna edit this script before using ... some apk are useful as u said :good:

I just used the work of someone who posted this debloated script. I prepare an exam and I have not the time to check the differents apps removed. But it's a provisionnal solution for Xposed
However, you can say this at the original author Here

I did that script for my purpose, and what is sh*t for for me may be usefuly for you
then I noticed that doing such cleaning in my phone I had no bootloops, so shared it to others, and AFAIK others are enjoying it as well and prefer not having bootloops using xposed rather than keeping those important features as you call them... (facelook, livewallpapers etc etc lol) just head over there and see the reports from people who applied it...
btw, if you would have read OP better, you would have noticed that debloat script was not made by OP of this thread, but by me and again reading better you would have probably been to the original thread where I wrote all disclaimers, explanations for most important packages I removed (such as simcontacts, enhancedusbux etc): as written in my thread for example, simcontacts is useless unless you have contacts stored in your sim card (in that case I suggested there to keep it!), enhancedusbux is useless if you just connect phone to PC to transfer files (as that operation is working flawlessly even without it, otherwise I wrote there to keep it!) etc etc
(instead about facelook, livewallpapers, and such useless things I'vealready expressed my opinion above).
and well in the end, of course, free to use my script as well as not use it as well as edit it as you wish before using it!
PS: I called it "massive debloat" for one purpose see it like that, all stuff phone makers add in their FW, in addition to what AOSP has, is BLOAT for me. and actually, I even debloat AOSP roms you can imagine.....

OMG.
firs of all all apps that can be downloaded from play store are not vital (for example I always remove gmail from /system and then install it from Play Store, or from my sdcard backup folder): the ones in /system are always outdated compared to what you find on play store, so why keeping them in /system too?
sony's clock widgets vital? I use dashclock that is thousand times better, so sony's is sh*t for me, and I remove it. and btw there are a lot of other things I am removing more vital than clock widgets... (intelligent functions, play station stuff, mirror things etc etc) you can imagine if I make scruples about clock's widgets.......
finally, again, if you don't like it, don't use it or edit it before applying it!! everyone will find vital things for him in my list, so there is no point in arguing: that's my script and I do that as I wish. it is impossible to make a debloat script that is 100% ok for everyone: considering all suggestions, I would no debloat at all..!! just adapt it to make it suitable for your case! (but then if bootloops appear again, don't bother asking what app is causing it )

that's the spirit in the other thread in OP I also put a link to a zip containing all the stuff I removed, and detailed instructions about how to restore things inside it in case of need (there is a simple script to automatically do that).
so some people is applying my script/debloated FW and then restore things and check about bootloops.
alternatively you can of course modify the script before flashing it, to avoid deleting things and then restoring them
i asked people who restored something to report in the thread to try to understand what is generating bootloops or at least make a list with safe things to add, but so far just a few people did that ;(

ETA : Well, I've restored the whole priv-app folder with wipe cache and dalvik/ART cache → phone booted → I've rebooted many time and no bootloop so far (and Xposed working as well)
I'll try some system apps soon when i have time and update this post
Google drive link says "you need permission", what's that about? More importantly, is Viper4Android working?

I've separated all the apps by creating different flash_removed_apps - A.zip to flash_removed_apps - Z.zip flashable zip, I'll try them all one by one to isolate the problem(s) It will take some time and maybe somebody will find before me ^^
I think the most borring thing will be waiting for apps optimization everytime......nevermind I'll do it
that's a very good approach man! time consuming but should work great at least! :good:

Umm and how do you propose to switch from "media transfer mode" to "mass storage mode" and vise versa? I seriously think that this is not a solution to the bootloops, I'd try deleting app-by-app until the bootloops stop, then you'll at least know which app exactly causes the conflict. I think I'll even try it myself.

BLOATWARE remove List-Script for all Quark

Bloatware: What is it?​Bloatware wasn’t invented with the Android phone, but Android phone manufacturers and cell phone carriers have really taken advantage of it. Bloatware is all of the extra software applications that come pre-installed on your Android (in addition to vanilla Android)–it can include any kind of application but some of the most notable examples are carrier apps and/or trial apps that you have to pay for after a certain time to keep using it. At best these apps can simply be taking up space on your phone, or at worst it can be running in the background without your knowledge and drain your battery.
Source: http://whatisbloatware.com/bloatware/
I Started this thread in the intention of share and teach how to get rid of Bloatware apps of Moto Maxx.
Right now i will focus more on the custom ROM, after new releases of stock ROM i will give more support but for stock 5.0.2 i will only give advice not a script (i don't really spent time using stock 5.0.2).
I have made a flash zip that I use it for months and keep it update to all the devices I have, so the script i share is safe and fully working, but it may contain a app that the user use, so check the list of content of the zip before flash it, make a backup, and if yours backup doesn't help you can allays just flash your ROM again it will flash back all the deleted app.
1° Post, disclaimer, download how to install.
2° Post, help, changelog, list of content of the scrip for custom ROM, advice list for stock ROM, safe app to remove but not in the script, safe app to freeze not to deleted.
3° Post, how to make yourself
How to use my script:
- Download link
Cleaner-Custom-ROM-V-10X.zip this can be used on all devices.
Cleaner-Verizon-from-Custom-ROM.zip this is recommend to XT1225 and GSM only as this remove all Verizon app from custom ROM
- Make a TWRP backup
- Flash via TWRP
- Reboot
- Enjoy
! Check second post for the list of app deleted, Help, changelog etc...
All of this list can be used for other device if you end up here by search be aware of that, but do not use my script in other device it may cause trouble, try to adapt it to yours
Help:
If your device dont boot, or it keep receiving a Force closed message, you may have delete a wrong app, so use yours backup, if yous backup doesn't help you can allays just flash your ROM again it will flash back all the deleted app.
Changelog:
Mar-02-2016
V 1.0.5:
Included to the script the new email services from CM13 "ExchangeServices"
Fev-03-2016
V 1.0.4:

Safe app to remove but not in the script:
This app i believe most users use but they are safe to delete or freeze.
Theme app:
/system/priv-app/ThemeChooser (it may show as Themes 1.0 on titanium)
/system/priv-app/ThemesProvider (it may show as Themes Provider 2.0 on titanium)
Lock clock, this will not delete yours lock clock, it only remove the customized option of app clock that may be in the custom ROM, like RR
/system/app/LockClock (it may show as Widgets 3.4.1 on titanium) this app like to eat the battery
This LockClock Widgets app can use up to 5% of the battery, in my use my battery last for 36 to 48h, this app disable may give me 2 to 4h more of battery.
Safe app to freeze not to deleted.
Basically there is some app you may never use (but they are need to exist) or used only once in awhile, i use titanium backup app to freeze those app's. This will help to extend your battery use, if you don't use disable/freeze it.
Bluetooth pack, if this are freeze Bluetooth will not work.
Bluetooth extensions 5.1.1xxxxxx
Bluetooth share 5.1.1xxxxxx
End of Bluetooth pack
GPS pack, if this are freeze GPS will not work.
com.motorola.motogeofencesvc or MotogeofenceSvc
Fuse Location XXX (location app)
LocationServices 1.0 (location app) may exist two of this apk
End of GPS pack
NFC pack , if this are freeze NFC will not work.
Nfc Service 5.1.1xxxxx
Tags (NFC app)
End of NFC pack
PrintSpooler Print app
Terminal Background terminal app
OmniSwitch (custom app may only exist on RR ROM)
Trebuchet 1.0 (laucher app) yo may freeze it if use other launcher
Update 1.2 (RR only, is a update app it doesn't work for quark)
How to make yourself:
There is two ways:
1° User can edit my script and make they on.
2° delete or freeze the apk via Titanium backup or delete via Root browser
Note: in 4.4.4 all the app share the same folder, in 5.x.x +, it app has it own folder. So in 4.4.4 you need to delete the file of the apk, and in 5.x.x + you need to delete the apk folder.
1° How to Edit the script
To edit the script
Basically you open the zip, go to the folder:
\META-INF\com\google\android
Open the file
updater-script
And edit and save it...
I recommend edit this file using Notepad++
To remove a app from the script you remove the lines of the script that contain the app, there is two for lines it app, one display the name the other is the one that delete the app .
To add a app to the script you add the lines in the script and put the right name and path of that app.
I recommend to add ui_print below line 27 of the script, and delete_recursive below line 63 of the script.
Do not change any line above (# do not change anything above this) originally at line 12 or below (# do not change anything below this) originally line 97.
What it line/command do:
ui_print(" Removing BasicDreams"); * This will print to the TWRP screen what is inside the quotation marks, yes ui_print lines are just a cosmetic ting!
delete("/system/app/atfwd.apk"); * This will deleted a file, inside the quotation marks the path of the file
delete_recursive("/system/app/BasicDreams"); * This will deleted the folder inside the quotation marks the path of the folder
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "sleep", "1"); * This will stop for some seconds the TWRP script, so the user can read what is on the screen, the number is the quotation marks is the time in seconds
I recommend to add ui_print below line 27 of the script, and delete_recursive below line 63 of the script.
Any line that starts whit # will not be read by TWRP.
If you have any trouble editing the script let me know.
2° delete or freeze the apk via Titanium backup or delete via Root browser
This is really simple no need to explain...
If you choose the file browser... delete the apk file if in 4.4.4, delete the apk folder if on 5.x.x +
Thanks! A couple of these apps I use, but most I don't. Especially the wallpaper crap.

Those wallpaper are in every ROM, i don't really know way, maybe somebody use it, i never use it and some times i can see that it use the battery...
You may use the script and remove those lines of app you use, and flash your personal zip after it ROM update... Or just freeze it, but some times the apk change version and after a ROM update it is "un-freeze" so you need to check in titanium after a ROM update...
V 1.0.2:

Thanks for reminding me about freezing with Titanium Backup. I use the app every day for years but I've rarely frozen stuff. However, I just solved two crashing problems by freezing.

1) I froze the motogeofences apk (moto GPS) that crashes every time with Waze. Since I use TopNTP I don't need Moto's buggy GPS (discussed thoroughly in the CM12.1 thread). With that apk frozen, navigated all day yesterday with no GPS issues and no motogeofences crash error report! :good:
___
2) Also since I re-flash the Moto Camera and Gallery every time I flash a CM daily, I get a gallery crash report whenever I reboot. Some conflict there, so I froze the Gallery I am not using.
You are correct that if the apk is updated at some point, I will have to re-freeze but right now that solution is working.
I will also use your script to actually remove some other stuff, but in those two cases the freeze is working to solve the crashing errors.

Thanks for reminding me about freezing with Titanium Backup. I use the app every day for years but I've rarely frozen stuff. However, I just solved two crashing problems by freezing.
1) I froze the motogeofences apk (moto GPS) that crashes every time with Waze. Since I use TopNTP I don't need Moto's buggy GPS (discussed thoroughly in the CM12.1 thread). With that apk frozen, navigated all day yesterday with no GPS issues and no motogeofences crash error report! :good:
___
2) Also since I re-flash the Moto Camera and Gallery every time I flash a CM daily, I get a gallery crash report whenever I reboot. Some conflict there, so I froze the Gallery I am not using.
You are correct that if the apk is updated at some point, I will have to re-freeze but right now that solution is working.
I will also use your script to actually remove some other stuff, but in those two cases the freeze is working to solve the crashing errors.

Nice find...
I don't really use GPS i test to see if works but never use on the move.
What about use motogeofences from another moto device? I have made a zip from victara CM12.1.
I install on my device and GPS works, i open Waze and it works but i'm not on the move...
If you can do a test, i made two zip one the apk form quark cm12.1 another from victara CM12.1, just in case the victara cause trouble.
If this fix we can update CM source using this apk... of course after a long test but i can just share the zip on CM thread after if you have success and other users can test it... :good:
So, just to confirm -- the Victara zip installs another version of the Moto GP from another device? And the Quark zip is to restore the Quark Moto GPS?
I'll try it, just wanted confirmation on exactly what it does.
______
Also, with the Quark Moto GPS, the Waze app crashes when using navigation to a certain destination -- when the app is giving you directions, usually within a minute or so it crashes. If you just have the app open for general driving (police warnings, accident warnings) but are not actively using it for route directions, it runs fine.

Yes victara is Moto X 2014, if you flash victara you will have MotGeoFenceSvc from victara, if you flash quark you flash back the original MotGeoFenceSvc that is on Quark CM12.1 today.
BTW, I started a navigation and no bug, but I'm not moving, i read in some quark thread that the bug is only present when using the mobile data, on wifi not, i'm on wifi now...
Let see what happens to you...

Very sorry, but the Victara version crashed in Waze navigation mode also.
I unfroze (Quark) MotGeoFenceSvc in Titanium Backup, rebooted into recovery, flashed the Victara zip, booted back into system. When I left work about an hour later, I opened Waze and put it into navigation mode to go home. Soon after I left the parking lot, I got the crash error message.
After that crash, Waze continued to work just like it always does, and GPS is fine. But MotGeoFenceSvc still crashed.
When I got home, I flashed the Quark version back, then froze it in Titanium Backup. This morning when I went to work, and put Waze in Navigation mode, it did not crash.
______
When I use Google Maps navigation, MotGeoFenceSvc does NOT crash.
MotGeoFenceSvc only crashes in Waze mapping app (which is also owned by Google), and even then only when in Navigation mode (for turn-by-turn directions).
Even though I know how to drive home from work, I use the Waze navigation mode because it will quickly re-route me to alternate roads if there is a traffic accident. Google Maps also will re-route you but not as quickly. Waze is crowd sourced, in addition to the traffic data coming from government systems. And due to the crowd sourcing, Waze will warn you about police speed traps or other hazards.

Ok, that going to be a little more hard to find a fix to the motogps app. But at least frozen works that is a +. I will see if i can reproduce the bug on my device so i can make a more test to fix it...
Thanks for the help i let you know what i find...

Hi, finally we have a full working rom not AOSP for the our device Zenfone Max M2!!! The latest miui 10 based on Android Pie!
For the installation you need of an unlocked bootloader and latest firmware WW Asus Pie that you can find here
After this, you must be on PitchBlack Recovery and uncheck the "Disable DM Verity" option from Additional and Special Settings and flash the force decryption (here), then wipe cache, dalvik and data (DO NOT WIPE SYSTEM!!!) and flash always by recovery this bootimage patched correctly for firmware .48 and the system image of Miui 10 (here).
Finally flash in every case the latest zip of magisk manager and go in advanced wipe for the resize of the system partition. Reboot and voilà. You will take a MIUI 10 with characthers too big and for this is necessary adjust the dpi value in developer option (i use 400/420). Now all works except the services Google (the apps don't work) and the Mi Services (especially mi account and find my phone). For the services Google we have a fix, for Xiaomi services not yet. For fix the google services we need of an app called Link2sd (root app).
Well we can download the latest version of the app from here and delete the preinstalled Google services that not are working. You must delete these services: Google Playstore, Google Play Services, Google Service Framework, Google Contact Sync and Google Calendary Sync. After this you can reinstall automatically the working gapps by this chinese app called Google Installer 3.0 that can find here (do not use the 2.0 version is bugged!).
The app will reinstall all except Google Contact Sync that can install from here.
After this you will take all the gapps working except Google Contact Sync (you don t will see your contact saved in phonebook). Then you will need for first to allow permissions to the app in management app section of Miui (only permission that you must give is relative to contacts) and for second you must convert the app in a SYSTEM APP with link2sd. Finally reboot the phone and voilà, you will take also the google contacts in your phonebook!!!
Alternatively you can choose the solution of kumar87 (thanks a lot) - Install Link2SD app and delete all Google apps, now install this gapps package using pitch black recovery ( modified by Ashu7073 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nS2z4emxHovZ0x3CqXl59r8oBqx9DiPU/view?usp=drivesdk )
Now clear data, cache, and dalvik cache.
BUGS
1- Security setting is not working
2- Sometimes apps don't open from home screen (restart needed)
3- Bluetooth not working properly with car stereo
4- Can't change region in settings.
5- Mi account is not working including themes
6- find device app stop working frequently.
I have realized this GSI with ErfanTool, then thanks @erfanoabdi

UPDATE 2: BATTERY LIFE IS SLIGHTLY BETTER THAN STOCK ROM, CONTACTS SYNCS STILL DOESN'T WORK FOR ME, OTHER GAPPS SERVICES ARE WORKING FINE, NO OTHER BUGS COULD BE SEEN.
AFTER TESTING THIS ROM, I CAN FINALLY SEE A FUTURE FOR CUSTOM ROMs ON THIS PHONE, THANKS A BUNCH FOR TAKING THE TIME AND PUTTING IN EFFORT TO DEVELOP THIS ROM, I'M TRULY GRATEFUL.

Thanks. Now i add your feed on first post. I would also publish the ZenUI porting from Zenfone5 but calls and data (RIL) not work. Should i publish this version for test or not?
You should publish it so anyone can use and some other developers may remove these bugs.
Really none of the understanding guys can fix the mistakes? Probably this will all die out. It’s a pity of course, if I knew how to fix it.
