[HOW TO] Disable Google Apps [and any other app] without Root in MIUI8 - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi All,
Since in MIUI 8 there is no way to disable the installed apps, here is the trick to disable Google Apps and other insalled apps for the devices without root access.
Things needed:
1. QuickShortcutMaker [Playstore link]
2. Phone with MIUI8 installed.
Stpes:
1. Download and open the QuickShortcutMaker app
2. In the search box type "Installed" and hit search.
3. Select the highlighted ($ManageApplicationsActivity)option and tap "Create".
4. A settings icon will be created on the home screen.
5. Tap the icon and select the app which you want to disable (for eg. Hangouts).
6. Tap Disable (it may ask to uninstall the updates, just uninstall the update and disable the app).
P.S. If you are using Nova Launcher, then you can create the shortcut of the activity by using the widget feature.
Edit: You cannot disable the MIUI apps by this method.
Here is the video Thanks @TheDj408

Nice tut ! Will help a lot of persons

You can directly go into settings and disable it. Then why do you need to make a short cut?

You need root to disable it.

Reboot and try again, it should not happen.
Something is wrong with your phone

I don't know about RN3 if but disabling either Google/MIUI apps in latest MIUI Global Stable results in a bootloop. And if you have not unlocked the bootloader it can be a big hassle as recently the EDL mode has also been locked. Learned this the hard way when my Redmi 3s got stuck in a bootloop necessitating a visit to service center. The Deep Flash cable method is only other way.

I somehow disabled the system's dialer from regular setting. Circuitous but I go there. This was where the quickshortcut took me.
Using quckshortcutmaker would be easier, can be quite a powerful app.

Since when the EDL mode has been locked for RN3? AFAIK it was for Mi5 and others but not RN3.

That is what I had mentioned in the beginning itself. And Xiaomi forums are full of contradictory/outdated info in this regard.

Stupid question:
Why can't we just disable them through Google Play help section, as explained on en.miui.com/thread-490604-1-1.html?
This way we don't need to install anything...

Doesn't work. Doesn't even create the shortcut as it's supposed to.

hey man can I share it to forums?

Cannot re-enable apps that I've disabled.

I have a thing against having lots of apps in my app drawer that I never use. I always go through and disable ones that I won't need. Well, I disabled some of the ZTE apps like My Voice, and now I can't re-enable them. When I go to app info, it shows "disabled" on the list for the app, but when I tap it, there is an "enable" button that is grayed out.
I'd like to be able to do this without factory resetting the phone.
If you can get ADB running to connect the phone to the PC try this
adb shell pm list packages -d
adb shell pm unhide package.Name

:laugh: looks like we are all here , by the way wont work (unhide command) needs to be " pm enable " and requires system access (root) "Permission Denial" , i try with a disabled app(s), just hope we get that update soon to avoid all this problems
P.S. yeah i'm the guy from ZTE forum
Haha good to see you guys!
Too bad on the ADB pm cmd, i was 50/50 on it working
I need to find a way to auto-post to both forums through :laugh:

Looks like you ran directly from terminal emulator. I'm not sure, but ADB shell might run under a different UID and have more permissions. This might have changed in MM, but you could use pm command to grand permission to Greenify package on non rooted devices
Was there ever a fix for this? I am running into the same issue and can't re-enable apps.

Are you sure about this? I have seen posts on ZTE board saying that apps can no longer be enabled/disabled with B27. With B20 you can at least do disabling (I am not sure about enabling).
some you can some you can't. you can disable ZTE browser, but can't disable ZTE calendar or ZTE messanger for instance.
For disabling apps, are you using a different launcher?
Launch the Stock Android launcher and disable apps through the app drawer - I've successfully disabled ZTE calendar and messenger on my device.
Re-enabling seems another problem altogether though..

B27 can still be rooted and bootloader unlocked. No real reason not to update.
no such love for B27

That was something else that was changed.
On B20, if you disabled apps in Settings > Apps, sometimes you would not be able to re-enable them.
(What you're talking about) On B20, if you use the Stock Android theme, if you press and hold on an application icon, there's a "Disable" option at the top of the screen that you can drag the icon to. Using this method, you could disable apps that you couldn't via Settings > Apps, such as the ZTE Calendar and Messaging apps. However, this allowed you to disable things that could cause issues with the device, such as disabling Settings or the Dialer. If you disabled apps this way, you could not re-enable them via Settings > Apps.
On B27, you can still disable apps in Settings > Apps, and people haven't reported having issues re-enabling them.
On B27, the "Disable" option in the Stock Android theme has been removed. So while you're not able to disable some stock apps, you cannot accidentally disable something that could break the OS.

Thanks - hadn't noticed that difference with B27 till now.
However, I've disabled the stock clock, and can no longer re-enable it through the App settings.
There does appear to be another solution (I haven't tried it though) - from the App settings, if you select the 3 dot menu on the top right, the option to reset app preferences should re-enable apps (and reset other settings as well).

Did you disable it back in B20? Cause when I look at the stock clock in B27 on my device, the disable option is greyed out.

Media Pad M3 8' add Google Services (install Core GSM Core Package) - solved

There are bits and pieces of this all over XDA (and the web) so I thought I'd just put it here to make it easier.
I purchased a Chinese Huawei Media Pad M3 8' WiFi tablet in March 2018 with the following details.
Model: CPN-W09
Build: CPN-W09C233B066 , CPN-W09C233B067 (updated 8 Apr 2017 with no negative effects)
EMUI 5.1
Android 7.0
Kernel: 3.18.31-gee0501b​
I wanted to get google services on this device. This is what finally worked for me.
Startup the tablet. Select USA English, skip Huawei registration and Wifi. Skip cloud services, enable pin, enable fingerprint ID. Get to home screen.
Connect to computer, enable file transfer and drop GSM the gsminstaller apk into your download folder. Install the gsminstaller and after the installer is installed, open it and press the 'one touch installation button'. After that, I installed Google Play service 12.5.20 and Google Play store 9.3.14 both of which I downloaded from apkmirror.com.
I was able to log into my google account and everything seems to be working fine. I even reset the tablet to factory specs to make sure I had the right steps and it looks like the GSM core stayed installed.
Note I got the link to the gsmcore (gsminstaller.apk) from this thread. so thanks.
Also, as I researched this, I stumbled across a couple of other tidbits that I thought I'd put here.
There are some hidden menus you can reach by putting the calculator in landscape mode (so you can see the '(' ')' characters.) and keying in the following combinations.
To get the Product ID enter: ()()1357946()()=
To get the Project Manager (install firmware from SD card, reset etc) aka Manufacture Mode enter: ()()2846579()() =​
Hope this helps someone else.

Use the Files app to find the APK where you put it on the tablet, double click it and install the APK (app). After it is installed , you'll see the icon in your apps. Click that and then you will see the one-touch install button.
Report back here if it works so other people can find the info for your tablet.

I have the same problem, it just doesn't allow you to install the APK (App may damage your device, Installation forbidden.) and there is no option to turn off checking apks

To skip the Hicare check, you just need to disconnect from the internet before you double click on the APK. Then you should be able to install the GSMinstaller.

When I switched off and on the external sources/third party app radio buttons, there was an option to "Enable external sources app to scan..." that was enabled by default. I disabled that tick box and it never checked any APK's again.
Hope this works for you.
I follow the steps, and got the play store installed,but when I went to install a few games, it said it couldn't install them. It also said the google play services wouldn't work unless it was updated, but when I went to update it, it didn't say there was an update. A few things installed,like Nova launcher. The games I tried to install, I was able to install them last time without a problem (don't remember what I did then to get Google play to work). Today I unlocked the bootloader and rooted it,and it obviously erased everything. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I have the WiFi only model.
It worked for my MEDIAPAD M3, I had to factory reset it, and skip all the set up options. do not add any password or wifi to it. just skip it all, then run the GMS installer., and also install the google play store , framework and play services.
then, you can add your wifi password.

Stop and frozen problems with Play Store and other apps after update to Android 8.1

Hi everyone,
After 2 years of using my Axon 7 (China) I decided to update.
I choose Oreo 8.1, and I want to stay with it because Dolby Atmos app is much better.
I try to install the other updates of 8.1 and the problem is still the same:
Apps for example JetAudio is running very long when I turn on to listen music, sometime frozen.
Play store too, when I use this app It can frozen, app is closed information on not respond.
Sometimes is info ,,Interface has stopped"
I use apk google installer to install google services or I install manual apk from apk mirror, and it still same problem.
I try to turn on permission to storage.
There is a more options for aps about energy or run in the background and I think its not helpful, maybe someone knows some options that I didn't find ?
Please help..

Hi.
This was my situation on b15-b16 update also.
Try empty cache of the google playstore, services, framework etc.
But my suggestion is that do full reset, and than go to zte market and download google downloader.
Than you will get a much faster (and clean) device.
Btw Where did you get 8.1 ? My knowing was that 8.0 (b19) is still in beta phase. Never heard about 8.1.

Ups, I made mistake. It's 8.0.0 Oreo, I get it from forum and flash with EDL mode.
Clear cache no results..
But how I go to ZTE Market ? I need to create account ? If yes, it's immposible because they ask for phone number and number from Poland didn't work.
Is there some other option to go to ZTE Market ?

No need for phone number. Maybe you should to register (zte account), but without telephone number. I'm from Hungary and it's works. Sorry that I can't recall the process, it was one day painful work that solved

[GUIDE][ROOT][(ED)XPOSED] Install Xposed using Magisk

SOME OF THIS MIGHT BE A BIT OUTDATED.
I haven't checked Riru for some time now. My school is killing me with assignments. When I have a bit of free time I will check everything and update this post.
Hello!!
In this thread I'm gonna show you how to install root with Magisk and install xposed.
First off all. This is how I did it. I'm going to explain it to the best of my abilities. However, if this does not work for you, or it resolves into a brick, its not my fault. Everything you do to your device it your own doing.
With that being said. Lets start!!
My setup:
Phone: Poco F2 Pro
Rom: xiaomi.eu Stable for Poco F2 Pro/Redmi K30 Pro
Android version: 10
Root: Magisk 21
Edxposed version: EdXposed-YAHFA-v0.4.6.2.4529.-release
Riru core version: magisk-riru-v21.3
EdXposed manager version: EdXposedManager-4.5.7-45700
What did i do?
I installed xiaomi.eu weekly first. But quickly after finding out that root doesn't work on Android 11 yet, I installed the stable which was still on Android 10.
So here are the steps what i did to install EdXposed
The files should be attached to this post as a zip, if you don't see them here is a link
1: Install latest Magisk 21.1
2: Install magisk-riru-v21.3.zip
3: Install EdXposed-YAHFA-v0.4.6.2.4529.-release.zip
4: Reboot phone
5: Install EdXposed installer
After I did this Chrome stopped working. Every time I wanted to open Chrome it just closed on its own. So I did a little search on Google and found a fix.
Thanks to Reddit user lkn194 for explaining how to fix this issue.
A quick step-by-step on how he/she did it:
In EdXposed Installer:
1: Go to settings> Framework> activate APP LIST MODE
2: Go to applications (Black list)> Leave enabled for:
• Android Services Library;
• Chrome;
• Google service structure;
• Google play services;
• Google play services for AR
3: Restart your device. After that you're done and Chrome is working
The first module I installed was CustoMIUIzer. Its an amazing addon mod for MIUI devices. You should definitely check that out.
This is the link
I hope this works for you as well as it does for me.
If you have any questions, be sure to say so.
Thanks for checking this out and have a great day!!
Welp the files weren't attached to that post, so here they are.

Thanks for the tutorial, but just wondering; does Customiuizer work well for you if you've got phone security enabled? I ask because I tried it earlier after correctly installing edxposed on the latest stable MIUI EU, but once I had customised the settings through the app and rebooted to have them applied, all I got was an onscreen 'please wait' warning that just hung there forever.
After doing some online research, I found out that if the phones encrypted (fingerprint or password), the Customiuizer app gets stuck on load for some strange reason. If all security options are disabled, then the app will apply the customisations just fine (although at the moment not all features seem to work on Miui12), so just wanted to know if this happens to you as well... Thanks again.

I'm sorry, i didnt say what. I was referring to disabling the security checks on installing apk's. That all i disabled. I also did nothing with the Security app. I haven't even actually opend that app.
Try disabling the security for apk's check by going into
Security app --> settings --> Security Scan --> disable "Scan before installing".
I also didn't click on any "agree" button cus like i said, i dont use the Security app
Thats what i have. Nothing more nothing less.

Thanks, but I had already disabled "Scan before installing". I guess it's something to do with the device being encrypted, because once I remove any passwords or fingerprints, some of the app's functions do indeed work (eg.: advanced reboot, volume keys media playback control). I guess for the moment it's either no security at all or no CustoMIUIzer...
A small request if I may; if you have the time, could you kindly check if album art is displaying on your lock-screen while paying music? The option to activate this feature is under 'lock-screen' mods within the CustoMIUIzer app... Thanks in advance.

Do you have any password / PIN / fingerprint enabled?

Anyhow, will try and reinstall the app again later today and fiddle around with it a bit to see what could be causing the issue then...
Thanks anyhow for the help. :good:
Update: Tried it all again starting over from scratch, and this time the CustoMIUIzer app worked perfectly without any hangs. What I did differently was verify all permissions had been granted for the app and also enabled it to auto-start as well, and so far, it seems to be working fine.
Had a problem with the album art on lock-screen not applying, though, but after a few tries I managed to figure out that it was because of some compatibility issue with the default MIUI theme; it worked when I set the 'Classic' theme as default, and also used a static wallpaper instead of a live one...

No problem, thanks for replying anyhow.
BTW, I found out why the app was freezing... Seems it was because I had activated the 'no password after boot' option under the apps lockscreen settings... ?
Why not use Edxposed canary (5.0.6)?

Because for me, it didnt work.
Just wondering if you'd still suggest using the stable ROM instead of the weekly.

As of now, root in its whole doesn't work on Android 11. And because it only works for Android 10 there is no other option but only to use this on Stable.
Unless you want no root and just want check out the new features. I suggest the Stable.

I dont know anything about root on Android 11. When i tried to install it on beta it didnt work. And so far I've seen only one person who said he/she had been able to acquire root on 11. If someone else can confirm this that would be great. I cant test it rn, cus of personal reasons, I need a stable phone.
for what you use Xposed?

Is there a way to install Xiaomi Apps in a Custom ROM?

Hi. I recently change my phone ROM to a custom one, after one year using the phone just as it came.
I installed Pixel Experience+, which its great, but there's two stock apps that I miss: Mi Screen Recorder and Mi security app.
Stock screen record was awesome: Just one touch on status bar to start recording, a floating button to start/stop and it let you record system audio and mic audio, choose 1080/720, 30/60 fps, etc. The Pixel experience+ one its just start/stop and nothing else, I don't even know if it's HD.
Security app was great too: Good trash cleaner, and a App Lock option by pin/fingerprint that it works great.
Is there a way to install those apps in Pixel Experience rom ? I tried to install apkmirror apks but it didn't work. Maybe it's something that it needs to be flashed. Or something that it just can't be done, that's why im asking.
Thanks!
ps: I just intalled the ROM, I didn't root the phone.
Some of them.
Short answer is NO at the moment there isnt any zip file that you flash it and boom Mi apps installed. (like the gapps) What you can do is to track & find which Mi-apps you want to install (manually).
What i had done in the past was to find the Mi Home launcher apk and the gallery i thing if you search you may find more apks but keep in mind that you can replace every single one app, just search for an alternative.

Thanks for the answer. That's bad new, I really liked those apps.
Yeah, I tried to download Screen Recorder and Mi Security apks from akpmirror and install it, but I couldn't.
I guess I'll have to try a third part app lock and screen recorder. Any suggestion?
uum... try to avoid 3rd party app lock (your custom rom may include that option already) as for screen recorder nop i dont have any suggestion. :|
