In the same way, you can turn off the system applications in Xiaomi smartphones, but you need to do this carefully: many are extremely necessary for the stable operation of the system. Important services cannot be disconnected, otherwise the work of the smartphone will be violated. Here are what services can be disabled in a smartphone without consequences, having a root-right.

Pay attention to how there are many system services in Xiaomi

Now the program will not use RAM, and to return everything back, it’s enough to turn on the services again and restart the smartphone. You can also exclude the launch after rebooting by turning off the slider near the “Auto Laugh” line.

How to disable getapps

Notifications on the update or installation of certain programs are regularly received from the Xiaomi store. Naturally, it distracts. You can disable such messages as follows:

• Open “Settings”, go to the “Notifications” section.
• In the “lock screen” section, find GetApps and transfer the toggle switch to an inactive position.
• Go to the category of “pop.up” and “marks”, and move the slider there similarly.

The method of disconnecting the notifications is checked on the device with Miui 12. In other versions, the names and location of the menu items are slightly different.

There is a more radical way to disable the Chinese store. At the same time, if you go through the “applications” to GetApps, the “Disable” button is inactive there. The situation is solved by installing the Redmi System Manager utility (No Root). How to work in it:

• Run, slip through the Start button, after which system applications will be displayed on the screen.
• Find getApps, open.
• Tap “Stop”.
• Go to the “Storage” section, where to select “Delete Cache” and “Disable”.
• Reload the smartphone.

The cancellation of the settings is performed through the same Redmi System Manager utility.

How to remove the utility

Since the store is “sewn” into the system shell, not to get rid of it with regular means. But there are still methods of removal, and both without the “hacking” of the device, and with the help of the rights of the super-user (ROOT access).

Without Root-right

• Go to the “On the phone” through “Settings”.
• 7. 10 times slip along the line “version of Miui”, as a result of which the user will be given the rights of the developer.
• Return to the settings, from there go to “advanced settings”. “for developers”.
• Find the item “Debugging by USB” and transfer the toggle switch to an active position.

Next, load Adb-Ulitte, Drivers, as well as Oracle Java JDK. Further instruction:

• Open the Adb tab, go to Uninstaller, where installed applications will be displayed.
• Put a checkmark opposite GetApps (another name. Mi App Store).
• Click Uninstall.
• Reload the phone.

Using ADB utility, any programs are deleted, even systemic. But you need to use this tool carefully so as not to harm the work of the smartphone.

With ROOT laws

If the gadget is hacked, then system applications can be deinstalled without using a computer. In general, each model has its own instruction, but in general the algorithm is as follows:

• Download any file manager to the phone, for example, Uninstall Expert. There is a lot of advertising in the utility, but the main thing is that it performs the main function.

The advantage of this option is that the selected system component will not be completely deleted, it can be restored.

Option Second

To remove software, it will fully need to obtain Root rights and unlock the bootloader. With this option, a warranty on the device is lost, and you risk the functionality of the smartphone. Complete ineffectiveness with the need for flashing, as well as loss of protection of the apparatus, is possible.

Then, in the advanced settings, moving to the section “for developers”, turn on the “factory unlock”. When moving to “Mi Unlock Status”, a window adding an account will open.
• Use your account in Mi Flash Unlock.
• In the turn off, click on the phone and sound reduction, then connect to the computer and unlock.
