LOSdiet

All of that LineageOS taste without the filling

Generate flashable zip to remove system apps from LineageOS 14 within the browser.

WARNING!!!!

Very alpha stage. The list was created mainly from the old Cyanogenmod Barebones list and therefore probably wrong/out of date. Do not ask the LineageOS team for help and do not submit Jira issues as a result of using this project. If you do not know what you are doing, for the love of god and all that is holy...do not use this.

Why?

Some of the stock apps and libraries I do not use and ,personally, I prefer a system that is lean. For example, I use Vanilla Music so Eleven, a.k.a. Music, just clutters up the app drawer.

How does it work?

After selecting the system apps to be removed, 'Make Zip' creates a simple bash script that is injected into a flashable zip file. This bash script is added to start up scripts under /system/addon.d/20-LOSdiet.sh. The script is run once when flashing the zip and again every boot. This prevents applications from being readded when Lineage updates

Help! Help! I did not heed your warning

Ugh, no one ever listens to pearls of wisdom.

  1. Download the flashable uninstall zip file
  2. Flash it.
  3. Reflash the LineageOS ROM for your device.
