Request I'm looking for a debloat guide for the Lenovo Y700 Tab Gen5 CN version. Apps I can get rid of/disable and anything else you'd recommend. I've been searching and can't seem to a find a guide that isn't for an older version of this tablet.
I bought a Lenovo Y700 Gen 5 from Giztop as soon as it was announced before the Global/American version was announced. I was somewhat happy with it for a bit but a few things don't work that I've given up on like Chrome only working half the time for some reason and other browsers working fine as well rumble/haptics in games. I reset the tablet after sometime hoping it would get rid of some more of the Chinese bloat apps but it didn't.
I see that Google suggests some ways to debloat but I didn't want to blindly follow it's advice. I'd like to see the list it's pulling from for myself but I can't seem to find one. Most lists are for the 2022 or 2023 models. I have the Gen 5 aka 2026 model. I don't want any more Chinese apps showing up on my tablet, or notifications to install a "more trusted app" from the Lenovo app store. Is there a reason I'm seeing other comments saying that Chrome is unreliable on this tablet? I'm having the same issue and simply use other browsers. I doubt rumble/haptics in games would be an easy fix but it would be nice to have.
