I remember back in the day it was easy just to buy an app that would freeze bloatware until you decided to unfreeze it.
Let someone else who knows enough to not be dangerous take over. This has been the thought marbles I've been rolling around, and figured I maybe should share. I have already learned the lesson multiple times, it's better to be Clueless and safe, than it is to know enough to be dangerous. Making changes with stuff while in safe mode is also a good way to possibly brick your phone. I have not tried restarting in safe mode and being systematically minimized functionally by design, the phone settings and app might not have the communication triggering the app to reset control. But they somehow still have communication because cleaning the phone side turns all of the app sides settings back on and gives the permissions and system settings access back. Then when it was looking for its data if the app was reenabled it was looking for broken paths to missing locations.
And then with it force stopped I was going to delete and wipe the phones horde of data used or collected by the GS app. I turned off all permissions and abilities to change system settings. Google Store settings for updating app using Wi-Fi or mobile data set to never, last logging out in the store settings Samsung account.īack in the apps phone settings force stopping the app I assumed would sever the phone settings and the actual GS app from communicating. Depending on the order that you untick and clear settings in the store app settings itself and phone settings for apps they will undo your changes.
