How to Instantly Remove Bloatware from Your Nexus 5
2 min read
One of the biggest advantages of buying a Nexus 5 is being able to avoid bloatware. It’s a pure Android experience, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you avoid all Android bloatware.
You see, Google has plenty of bloatware apps of its own, which is why many Nexus 5 owners look for ways to clean up their device.
Removing bloatware from your Nexus 5 is easy. Today, we’re going to show you how to instantly remove bloatware from your Nexus 5 simply by running a script.
That script was created by MoJo, a member of the XDA Developers Forum. The script can be installed from recovery like any app or kernel. Unfortunately for non-rooted users, this fix is only available on rooted Nexus 5 devices.
Here are just some of the bloatware apps removed from the Nexus 5 using this script:
