Good luck
#Btw, if you uninstall update then your launcher will return as before. So no need to download this file

How did you get it to install? I installed s8 launcher too and now themes won't work. Can't uninstall the update and won't allow me to install the s7 launcher.
Thanks

Just uninstalled update, that worked fine for me

I'm unable to uninstall update on TouchWiz Launcher in Settings>Apps. I only have the 'Force Stop' and 'Disable' options. The .rar file upload in this thread is corrupted. Any thoughts?
Edit: Nevermind, I clicked the three dots in the top right corner, and clicked the 'Uninstall Updates' option.

[Q] apex swype

I know how to do it, I was just wondering if it can handle the new swype.. I guess i'll try and see.
I used the Swype beta on Apex and Fission, so I see no reason why it shouldn't.

Try flashing it as a .zip file in recovery
sign up fro swype beta,
google "installed swype beta on droid x"
follow the instructions on the files to remove via rootexplorer
Install the swype beta installer and install,
new beta works great a huge improvment over the now ancient preloaded version on the dx.

"It won't install"?
You have to push the SecLauncher3.apk to /system/priv-app, e.g.with root explorer.
People that don't know what they are doing should not mess with there's phones, then open countless threads on here asking for others to put right their mistakes.

If you install S5 launcher by apk you can uninstall simply by settings.If you replace file in System folder put the original touchwiz in it.

S7 Edge bloatware remove

Hi guys
I have a question: in galaxy S4 there was a possibility to remove some unused apps from system with System app remover (apk).
I wonder if any of the developers could make for rooted S7 Edge a list of safely removable apps from system (like if I don`t use for example Galaxy Care, is it safe to uninstall it?) I think this will make our device even faster and more battery friendly.
Thank you!

Install package disabler pro from the play store. Bloatware will be highlighted in pink. This does not exactly highlight everything that can be removed, but it's a start.
P.S. Wrong forum.

Actually, I unlocked and installed TWRP when I was on 7.0 (followed instructions on ZTE Axon 7 threads and instructions). After 7.1.1 update, phone remained unlocked and TWRP was there. But root was removed so using TWRP, I installed SuperSU 2.79 and got root back.

How can I remove carrier installed apps on S8 - Rogers Canada

Hello
I want to uninstall and remove and spotify app which came pre-installed with the phone. I am using S8 on Rogers network in Canada. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Have you tried disabling the apps you don't need? If you haven't, then long press on the shortcut and pick "app info". There you will find disable button(if not grayed out). That is the easiest way off turning off the app which won't show in your apps anymore, but it won't uninstall it.

However, I have my own apk and wouldn't install saying the system already have file with same name. I can disable but it will not solve my problem. Any work around or ways to remove the preinstalled spotify files?

I have not tried it personally, but check this tread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294 There could also be other methods/apps that would help.
Try clearing app data than uninstall updates, this can be found in settings/apps.

Unfortunately, there is no app data visible/available for spotify so, cannot delete anything. Also how can you uninstall updates?

Go to apps then click Spotify then click storage then clear data and cache.
If you want to remove the pre installed version you need to be rooted to remove system apps.
The all you have will be the same as the one pre installed. You can always download an updated version.

Still, it doesn't work. I have my own spotify apk which conflicts with the pre-installed one because of same name.

Not if its a hacked version of Spotify.
I see no reason why someone would disable the included Spotify app to load "their own version"
The included app can be updated right from the google play store, so there is no reason someone should be uninstalling it to install a .apk version.
I am on a Rogers S8, so I know this is true.

Thanks for the link to the forum post.
But the problem is - after doing this, the phone restarts and erase everything again and installs all the carrier apps. Is there anyway this can be stopped?
Thanks a lot.
Pull your sim card out and change it to xac.

Will it be different or remain the same when I put the sim back in? My experience is the sim erases everything and install all the carrier apps again.

Check out this XDA article. It details instructions to remove apps/packages without root, using ADB. Be super careful doing this or using a package disabler app Like BK Package Disabler or Adhell (which is free)...if you disable the wrong system package you may end up disabling important functions/features.
https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
What you can do is only disable it. That's what I'm doing with texture also and zone. Don't flash XAC if you are still a Rogers user you will loose wificall and Volte.
Only time you can remove it completely is to root. (Not available)
Or flash the XAC but modify the feature file in XAC to add the lines to enable wifi call and Volte. And again not possible cause there is no root yet.
So it takes you back to the 1rst and only option and don't try any even when they claim it uninstall without root(it does not work with Samsung phones )
Just disable it "I think you know how hold the app icon and you see a popup to disable"
If you rebooted the phone , app will not show to show it back enable it again .
When any app is disabled you can't download the app it will tell you it's available unless if it's a higher version.
So if for some reason you want to have a clone " exemple disable original Spotify to download a cracked ) use apk unpacker and change the signature name on the cracked apk.
