MIUI SDK

Risk: With care
Source: Manufacturer
What it is: Telemetry and analytics

What it is

It is obiously needed for MIUI to work correctly. FYI, it manages the MIUI Analytics service (`tracking.miui.com`), autoinstall MIUI apps updates (?). Related to GetApps 'com.xiaomi.market' China Mi App Store), DropboxManager where is temp clean code, a lot of logs. Found things related to Quick Apps 'com.miui.hybrid', DataUpdateManager (related to micloud?). Telocation update, app looks like tracking everything. Can be disabled and uninstalled with MIUI 13.0.6, MIUI 14

NOTE: uninstalling this package causes the Settings app to crash when searching in Settings, so better disable this app instead.

If you want to test, disable this app and open an issue if anything isn't working. Another weird thing is normal user can disable this app using hidden Settings to manage app by in Google Play.

No effects after disable, but not sure if its required for Miui updates or gestures.

Careful: Removing this package causes the Settings app to crash when searching in Settings. May also cause bootloops in MIUI < 13.0.6

Commands

adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.miui.core

To put it back:

adb shell cmd package install-existing com.miui.core

Every removal listed here is per-user only: the system image is untouched, and the restore command puts the app back from the copy already on the device. Nothing is downloaded.

This is not the directory. Here we say what a package is in general; what happens on your particular television is on your model's entry, and that one wins. The same package can be dead weight on one set and hold the home screen up on another.
