Which of these can be safely removed through Android Debug Bridge? (I have enabled MicroG repository in F-Droid and I have already uninstalled all google apps, Play Store and Google Services Framework)

How many of these I can remove:
package:com.google.android.onetimeinitializer
package:com.google.android.ext.shared
package:com.google.android.configupdater
package:com.google.ar.core
package:com.google.android.setupwizard
package:com.google.android.webview
package:com.google.android.packageinstaller
package:com.google.android.gms
package:com.google.android.tag
package:com.google.android.partnersetup
package:com.google.android.printservice.recommendation
package:com.google.android.gms.policy_sidecar_aps
package:com.google.android.backuptransport
package:com.google.android.apps.restore

I've looked and read about this. Here are your answers

• De-Google Android? No way! Give up.
• De-Bloat Android? Probably not, as it's usually stored in protected memory. You can disable apps, which (usually) stops them running.

It sounds like you don't want Android at all, you want Lineage OS.

It's your device, delete what you want. One at a time I'd reckon. When you screw it up totally, reflash it and start again.

Not sure that you can de-google android. Kind of like de-microsofting windows. Or de-googling chrome.

Have a look at the pine phone, or see if lineage has a ROM for your phone. You may want to check that carefully first to see if your phone company allows it. And if all of the phones hardware works with the ROM.

Make a backup, remove all of them, see what happens.
No srsly, there's a few that I would not remove, e.g. webview.

Easier: drop Android, install LineageOS. It's not google-free by any definition, but it's bloatware- and google-blob-free. No gapps.

In any case, you'll have to do much more reading before you start hacking around.
Is your phone even rooted?

they are in a protected area of ​​memory. Just turn them off, but don't delete them, it can lead to problems with your phone!

Oh? Such as what??

In my experience ,, if I go to Play Store-->My Apps (they seem to have relabeled it "Manage Apps") and try to uninstall an app Android doesn't want me to uninstall, I will be presented with an option to "uninstall updates," but not to remove the application itself.

As an aside, I once had a tablet with pure Android installed (it was several versions ago) and it was surprisingly lacking in bloat. I think that most of the bloat is added by the cell phone vendors as they "customize" Android for their devices, though Google is getting its share in these days, including things I will never use, like Google Docs.

I never put a google account on any android device.
I use F-Droid and if I need something from the play store I use this:
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.aurora.store

It needs to be updated fairly often to work.

Let me install the latest version and see if it still works. I haven't installed anything for a while.(Don't like Android).

I downloaded it from F-Droid to my PC.
Copied it to the tablet, installed it from the devices file manager. Which means you have to allow "install from untrusted sources".

I do not have a google account on this tablet. Never has been one on it.

I started the app, logged in anonymous. And everything is there like it should be.

You can install an app or just download the .apk to file. Been using this for years.

Thank you for all the answers. Before removing gms, I disbled it using Insular app from F-droid. I was getting a lot of error messages. The phone was practically unusable with errors popping up every 2 minutes or so. So, I enabled gms on my Oppo A12 CPH2083.

I will certainty buy a phone on which I can install Lineage OS or Ubuntu Touch (or any other distro of my liking).

depends on your phone.
you can safely disable stuff and if needed restore it. Applications disabled this way will not get re-enabled without user intervention
# adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 <package name>
# adb shell pm enable --user 0 <package name>

or you can uninstall/reinstall (tread carefully)
# adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 <package name>
# adb shell pm package install-existing <package name>

I removed ~180 apps from Samsung Note 9 without losing functionality that I care about, but it all depends where you got your phone and what phone is it
Another option is to install custom ROM. It woks best, the only serious drawback is limited custom ROM maintenance time.
