Hate to have apps on your device which you do not want? If yes, we can feel how much the AT&T Galaxy S5 must have bothered you with all the bloatware it comes pre-installed with. You may have ‘disabled’ some of those apps but they’re still there eating your precious storage, and worse, some bloatware don’t even disable.
Thankfully, rooting the AT&T Galaxy S5 can save you from the trouble. User muniz_ri over at XDA has created a DeBloater script for the AT&T S5 running the most recent OC4 update to remove the unwanted apps on the device with the help of root access.
The DeBloater script is a .bat file for Windows and comes with three de-bloating modes — Light, Medium and Extreme. Detailed list of apps that each of these three modes remove is at the bottom of this post.
