It is a fact: Xiaomi includes a good handful of applications, both its own and from other manufacturers, on its mobiles. It is their business model and part of the reason why their mobiles are cheaper than those of the competition. In models with 32 GB of storage, this is even more serious, since the free space that we have left is practically laughable. This is the case of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 7, a model that in its cheapest version has just over 25 GB free. The solution to free up space is precisely to uninstall the Xiaomi factory applications, and this time we will show you how to proceed without root.
Before proceeding with the tutorial, it is necessary to clarify that tuexpertomovil.com is not responsible for any possible damage that the phone may cause. The responsibility is unique to the user.
What do I need to uninstall pre-installed apps on the Redmi Note 7
Before getting down to work, it is necessary to know the requirements to enter the guts of MIUI 10 or MIUI 11.
The first step to proceed with the phone is based on activating the Xiaomi Development Options to make use of USB debugging. To do this, we will have to follow the following roadmap:
- Access the Settings application and then About the phone.
- In the MIUI version section, press seven times until Developer Options are activated.
- Go back to Settings and access Additional Settings.
- Finally, go to Developer Options and activate the USB Debugging option.
The next step will be to move to the computer to install a series of programs, which we will quote below:
- Download and install the latest version of Java through this link.
- Download the Xiaomi ADB / Fastboot Tools according to your operating system.
Hands on: uninstall the bloatware from the Xiaomi Redmi Note 7
We have everything ready to proceed. The next thing we will have to do is connect the phone to the computer through a USB cable and select the Data transfer option. Then we will start the Xiaomi ADB / Fastboot Tools program previously downloaded. Being portable, it does not need any installation.
When the program analyzes the devices connected to the computer, it is most likely that a certification message will appear on our phone. We will only have to accept this certification for the tool to communicate correctly with the phone. E t voilá , we can now uninstall any MIUI application through ADB commands.
For this we will have to go to the Unistaller section and select all those applications that we want to be permanently eliminated. If we want to suspend them instead of eliminating them permanently, we can go to the Disabler tab and follow the same process that we will detail below.
In any case, the best thing to do to maintain system stability is to maintain the applications and processes necessary for the correct execution of Android and MIUI. For this same reason we urge you to uninstall only bloatware applications.
When we have finished selecting all the applications we will click on Uninstall to proceed with the uninstallation.
Which apps can I uninstall and which can't
Depending on the origin of our Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 or 7 Pro, the number of applications to reinstall will vary depending on the amount of bloatware that the manufacturer has decided to include by default. In the HTCmania forum they recommend uninstalling the following applications:
- Analytics
- App Vault
- Backup
- Browser
- Games
- Google Duo
- Google Play movies
- Google play music
- Joyose
- My App store
- My Cloud
- My Credit

- Notes
- PAI
- PartnerBookmarks
- Quick Apps
- Quick Ball
- Extra SMS
- Translation Service
- Uniplay Service
- VsimCore
- Yellow pages

We can also uninstall several of the applications that Google includes out of the box, such as Google Play Music, Google Lens or Google Duo, not to mention Facebook, Aliexpress and other non-Xiaomi applications, such as some pre-installed games.
How to reinstall pre-installed applications on the Redmi Note 7
Have you deleted something you shouldn't? Does the phone show an error message? Using the same tool we can restore all those applications that we have previously uninstalled or disabled. In the first case, it is enough to go to the Reinstaller tab and select all those applications that we want to restore.
If we have disabled the applications, we will have to follow the same process in the Enabler window by clicking on the corresponding button.
My Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 does not start, what do I do?
If our phone shows a Xiaomi logo at the start and is not able to enter Android, it is very likely that we have removed an essential MIUI tool. The only way to proceed is based precisely on resetting the factory device to return it to its initial state, that is, with all the factory applications. Unfortunately this process entails the complete deletion of all the data from the device.
All in all, the process is as simple as keeping the Power and Volume buttons up pressed at the same time with the mobile turned off. When the phone enters the Recovery of Xiaomi we will click on Wipe data to delete all the information from it. Finally the device will restart, now yes, without any startup error.
