Install adb so it’s in your path and ensure developer options -> usb debugging is enabled on your phone.

You might have to accept the connection on your phone if this is the first time doing this.

Now run adb from console

# adb devices

On the first run it should output this

List of devices attached
* daemon not running;starting now at tcp:5037 
* daemon started successfully

Now run adb devices again and it should look like this

# adb devices 

List of devices attached 
APH0000000000000 device

Now run adb shell

# adb shell

Now you’re in the shell and can remove programs

I’ve found that removing the following doesn’t mess anything up and removes all the huawei stuff i don’t need

# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.intelligent  
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.search 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.vassistant 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.appmarket 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.himovie 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.mediacenter 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.synergy 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.hidisk 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.phoneservice 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.calendar 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.browser 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.hwireader 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.wallet 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.powergenie 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.iflytek.speechsuite 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.skytone 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.android.findmyphone 
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.health

Now reboot, and you should be able to swipe left for google, and have all the Huawei bloat removed!

Other Noteworthy Commands:

List all packages

# pm list packages

Find packages

# pm list packages | grep word_youre_looking_for

Don’t uninstall, just disable for current user

# pm disable-user --user 0
# pm enable --user 0

Some Other Notes:

I wanted to remove the stock contacts, but it seems to get rid of the dialer too. Haven’t had time to find a workaround to this yet. So I just put it back on

# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.contacts
# cmd package install-existing com.android.contacts

I also wanted to remove the gallery and just use Google Photos, however, this made it so the gallery didn’t work from the camera app, so I ended up reinstalling this for now.

# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.gallery3d.overlay
# pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.android.gallery3d
# cmd package install-existing com.android.gallery3d
# cmd package install-existing com.android.gallery3d.overlay
