Debulking a Samsung phone
I like Samsung phones, the only thing I dislike about them is the default apps, which I was unable to remove from the phone. Now I did it, and here's what you need for that:
- A chat-bot to learn how to enable Developer Mode and USB Debugging
- A USB cable to connect your phone to a computer
- ADB on your computer
- Package Name Viewer app on your phone
What I ended up deleting is below. I got rid not only of the apps (in the user profile only, without root access), but also of annoying context menus. It's so much better now!
