Step by step guide to debloat LG G6

1. On LG: Enable USB Debugging and connect to PC via USB cable
2. On PC: Download android platform tools for your OS
3. On PC: In Terminal: Go to the platform tools folder - cd c:/platform-tools (example path)
4. On PC: In Terminal: Run ./adb.exe ls devices to see if your LG is connected. If not connected you will see something like this: adb: error: failed to get feature set: no devices/emulators found. Otherwise you will see your LG device listed as connected.
5. On PC: In Terminal: Run the shell - ./adb.exe shell
6. On PC: If shell is connected, run the script (copy the whole list above and paste in shell). You will see success msgs and maybe a few failures (from already uninstalled apps).
7. Enjoy bloat free unrooted device. This helps a lot with battery from my observation.

Note: If you need any of those packages back - you will have to factory reset your device.

I'd also add pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.amazon.aa to the list :)

Thanks a lot!!

I'm concerned about removing android.mms .. Will I still be able to send and receive mms messages? I just got this phone about 2 hours ago so it's fresh outta the box. I wish I could just root it but it seems to be somewhat of a mission. Also smart share, will this cause any issue sharing apps with other devices? And last, the launcher, I should install a different launcher before removing this one? Thanks, appreciate your help. Merry Christmas :)

Should the phone be in bootloader? Been trying since December to make this work.

Hi! Thanks for sharing this @v-dimitrov :-) Unfortunately I am getting an error that says "adb: error: failed to get feature set: no devices/emulators found" How do I solve this?

Hope you can help!

Make sure usb debugging is turned on
