Previously I uninstalled several save to uninstall bloatwares and now I can't manage second space on my Xiaomi 12 Lite. How can I enable it back? A pop out message constantly pops out stating that I need to unpin the app, but even when I did so, still the second space can be managed.
Which pre-installed app or program that caused this problem? Can anyone help me?

A few accounts claim that com.miui.daemon and com.xiaomi.joyose are actually useful apps that help you with your phone's operation.

Removing com.xiaomi.micloud.sdk kills the default sound recording app.

Okay, thanks for the info 👍

xiaomi bullet screen notification is safe remove, i confirm it :D

wallpaper backup too safe remove

I removed the following APKs on a Redmi Note 10S w/o causing any issues with operation, boot, security updates, etc., including a few apps described as not safe to uninstall above. However I can confirm, that the removal of com.xiaomi.finddevice causes problems, such as regular error messages. Also, despite the removal of below apps, significant network traffic to Xiaomi servers in China remains.

worked like a charm. only issue i ran into was that it did uninstall my keyboard with @Maetih apps. needed to download an apk and then reinstall the gboard app. not sure where that came from.

but y it still talks home, but at least most garbage is gone

Sorry to hear about your keyboard problems. I probably had already replaced the original keyboard with a privacy friendly alternative like AnySoftKeyboard or OpenBoard prior to removing the bloatware, as some preinstalled keyboards are sending every keystroke home. In order to keep the original keyboard do not remove the app "com.google.android.inputmethod.latin". The goal of the above list was to reduce also tracking by Google. If you want to keep all Google apps, services, do not remove anything, which starts with "com.google...." and "com.android...".
If one app too many was removed, the ADB command "adb shell pm install-existing <PACKAGE_NAME>" will bring it back in most cases.
The app "com.android.updater" provides system and security updates and is therefore essential. "com.xiaomi.discover" obviously upates preinstalled Xiaomi apps, including the bloatware. It is probably still better to keep it, as long as some Xiaomi apps remain.
"com.xiaomi.xmsf" and "com.xiaomi.xmsfkeeper" form the Xiaomi Service Framework. I did not remove them, though they are recommended by other users for removal. I do not know, what difference they make.
Also with "com.miui.global.packageinstaller" I followed a conservative approach and kept it, though some sources report, that the Google tool "com.google.android.packageinstaller" is sufficient to do the job.

com.miui.daemon

This app is duplicated under the two titles. Maybe need to remove from one.

@volodymyroliinyk I don't think it's duplicated. .daemon can't be disabled but can be uninstalled (and it's safe to do so). Maybe we should come up with a better title.

Currently don't have the device but managed to grab a list from a demo. Could anyone please help identify these apps?

This list is obtained from official HyperOS 2.0 (or A15).

Is there a list that describes the function of all these com. packages? I dont want to just blindly remove all safe to remove items. Some of them I might need or work with. Thanks.

The Universal Android Debloater project keeps a pretty good list of what those packages are for. I'll include a link to save you some time: https://github.com/0x192/universal-android-debloater/blob/main/resources/assets/uad_lists.json Use your browser/text editor's search function to search for the package

@tch69 Thank you, very useful.

The most useless MIUI system apps you can safely disable:

1. com.miui.systemAdSolution
   Why useless?
   Manages ads in the MIUI interface. Disabling it removes ads, which not only declutters your phone but also improves the user experience significantly.

2. com.miui.analytics
   Why useless?
   Collects usage data for Xiaomi. Turning it off boosts your privacy without affecting any core functionality of your device.

3. com.miui.personalassistant
   Why useless?
   The MIUI personal assistant provides unnecessary widgets (like news and shortcuts). Let’s be honest, how often do you use it? Exactly.

4. com.miui.voiceassist
   Why useless?
   A voice assistant that pales in comparison to Google Assistant. If you don’t rely on this feature, it’s just hogging space.

5. com.miui.contentcatcher
   Why useless?
   Extracts content for recommendations and contextual features. These are often poorly implemented and rarely helpful.

6. com.miui.bugreport
   Why useless?
   Only useful for developers to send bug reports to Xiaomi. Disabling it has no impact on your day-to-day usage.

7. com.miui.smsextra
   Why useless?
   Adds extra SMS features that are rarely used. You won’t miss it.

8. com.miui.hybrid / com.miui.hybrid.accessory
   Why useless?
   Manages hybrid apps (like web apps). If you don’t use Mi Browser or web apps, you can safely disable this.

9. com.miui.touchassistant
   Why useless?
   This floating shortcut bubble can be intrusive and is seldom used by most people.

Less useless, but still dispensable:

1. com.xiaomi.joyose
   Why useless?
   Collects device and sensor usage data. If you’re not tracking these metrics, it’s unnecessary.

2. Translation services (com.miui.translation.kingsoft, com.miui.translation.xmcloud, com.miui.translation.youdao)
   Why useless?
   If you already use Google Translate or a similar app, these integrated services are redundant.

3. com.miui.nextpay
   Why useless?
   This handles MIUI’s payment feature, which is irrelevant if you don’t use Mi Wallet.

4. com.miui.audiomonitor
   Why useless?
   Monitors audio inputs for voice commands. Disabling it doesn’t have any noticeable impact on everyday usage.

5. com.miui.mishare.connectivity
   Why useless?
   A quick file-sharing feature (Mi Share). If you don’t exchange files with other Xiaomi devices, you don’t need it.

5. com.miui.mishare.connectivity
Why useless?
A quick file-sharing feature (Mi Share). If you don’t exchange files with other Xiaomi devices, you don’t need it.

This is useful as it allows transferring files from your xiaomi device to any other device with chinese manufactures like oppo vivo oneplus iquoo realme

Do those uninstalled apps go back when xiaomi rolls out new system update?

In most cases, no. They only return when you reset the device/format your data partition. Vào 10 tháng 2, 2025 10:58:57 UTC, Tomas Mudrunka ***@***.***> đã viết:

When i remove com.mi.android.globalminusscreen (appvault), it does make step counter inacessible.
I think step counter is simply part of app vault, but it's shame, because app vault is super annoying, while step counter i do use sometimes.
Do you know about some workaround for this to use step counter without appvault? (tried 3rd party pedometer apps, but wasn't happy)

Update: installed "google fit" and so far it seems to work. But let me know if there's other way...

Also since i've uninstalled some of those apps, i've noticed that some other (non-xiaomi) apps suddenly show more ads. Perhaps xiaomi puts their own adblocker into their phones and we've managed to uninstall it :-)

Time to use an adblock DNS. However I've never encountered any ads on my Redmi after uninstalling com.*.ads. That's strange. Vào 20 tháng 2, 2025 12:56:43 UTC, Tomas Mudrunka ***@***.***> đã viết:

Today I debloated my Chinese Xiaomi 15 Ultra (HyperOS) and removed the following apps based on suggestions in this list. I was extremely careful to keep a few apps that I have had issues in the past after removing and also those which other people suggested that I keep anyway. I could have gone way more nuculear but even the "safe" list of apps on ADB AppControl has apps that have been reported to cause frequent errors and popups. I don't mind losing 1-2% of my battery with some garbage in the background that cannot phone home anyway, rather than brick my brand new flagship.

Here's the list of stuff that was safe to delete. I used ADB AppControl 1.8.6 which I highly recommend.

com.miui.systemAdSolution
com.miui.analytics
com.miui.personalassistant
com.miui.voiceassist
com.miui.contentcatcher
com.miui.bugreport
com.miui.hybrid
com.miui.nextpay

I realise there is probably more I can remove. I might come back later and edit my post with even more. Though from here on, I will likely trial disabling apps instead of removing them. I am also using the Live Wallpapers and a few other things so I felt like keeping that.

I also use NextDNS though so I block 98% of trackers there. Though it is still good to remove bloatware apps that could mercilessly drain battery in the background.

So I also blocked these hosts on NextDNS (I am also using all the other blocklists they provide but some of these were not covered):

sdkconfig.ad.xiaomi.com
taobao.com
tracking.miui.com
micloud.xiaomi.net
ccc.sys.miui.com
api.zhuti.xiaomi.com
amap.com
transifex.com
screentime.comm.miui.com
api.xmpush.xiaomi.com
thm.market.xiaomi.com
zobj.net
idm.api.io.mi.com
ai.service.platform.xiaomi.com
sandai.net
com.xiaomi.gamecenter.sdk.service

You should NOT block sdkconfig.xiaomi.com if you don't want to get dozens of errors and not be able to install unknown apps/sideload apps.

EDIT: I accidentally disabled Game Booster and could not get it back on. I fixed it by going into the Xiaomi Security app. Scrolling down and opening Game Booster. Allowing internet quickly and turning it back on within its own settings. Doing it via the "Touch Bar" didn't work (it was greyed out). I also had to download and install the security app via GetApps Xiaomi store.

api.xmpush.xiaomi.com
thm.market.xiaomi.com

idm.api.io.mi.com
ai.service.platform.xiaomi.com
sandai.net

You should NOT block sdkconfig.xiaomi.com if you don't want to get dozens of errors and not be able to install unknown apps/sideload apps.

I also got a Chinese Xiaomi 15 Ultra (HyperOS 2), I also removed the following :

com.miui.systemAdSolution
com.miui.analytics

But then I wanted to replace the Xiaomi package installer by Android default by doing this :

pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.miui.packageinstaller
pm install-existing --user 0 com.android.packageinstaller

It first looked perfect, but then I got into bootloop after rebooting and I had to reset my phone in recovery mode.

Any idea how to do that please ?

You can't replace the package installer. It's never been possible. Not sure who told you that. Even if you could there's no way to update it.

This is exactly why I am not playing around with this device and removing system apps. I don't care about a little spying. I just don't want Chinese stuff all over the screen. I really recommend other people unless you want to risk your time and money. Delete only what is safe.
