Hi all :)

It’s been a while since I modded a phone, so I’m a bit out of touch. If I root my phone and uninstall some apps, can I remove root afterwards so that I can use things like banking apps without workarounds?

I’ve got a Xiaomi Mi 10t Lite 5g, and it keeps automatically reinstalling its own apps, which then screw up my apps because they take over functions.

If I can completely remove apps rather than just hiding them, that would be a bonus.

Thanks for your help :)

    It depends on what method you use. If you just need a temporary shell as root to fully uninstall system apps, try out a temporary root method like mtk-su.

    If that doesn’t work, you can use SnoopSnitch to check your Android security patch level and see if there’s any “Privilege Escalation” exploit that you can take advantage of.
