Hey all, apologies if this has been addressed.

The background, I was starting to become some slow down, laggy performance from my phone, and then I went under programmer options and went to run into what processes were currently beingness run and what cached processes were saved. And then I noticed a process named, "My Verizon Services". WTF.

The last I remember, I setup my phone via WiFi without my sim card in, so that bloatware from Verizon didn't get installed. Am rooted via magisk/twrp and take manually installed subsequent updates.

Where did this process come from? And how can I make sure that after I do my full wipe, it won't sneak its manner dorsum into my phone? Or is this a mandatory procedure force installed to work on a Verizon network?

Yous sure that the My Verizon app isn't installed? I set up mine without the sim carte du jour in the beginning and as soon i as popped in the sim card, it installed those 3 Verizon apps. I but uninstalled them and so it wasn't a big deal.

Yeah not installed, and searched throughout the phone with ii dissimilar file explorers to root out verizon (vzw) apps, folders, etc. tried deleting them all only the process still shows up.
I'm curious if you still take that process running even after you deleted the apps.
Bank check it out for me and let me know.

You certain that the My Verizon app isn't installed? I set up mine without the sim menu in the beginning and equally presently i equally popped in the sim card, it installed those 3 Verizon apps. I just uninstalled them so it wasn't a large deal.

If you put a VZ SIM in the telephone information technology pulls My Verizon. If you lot offset the app...even if you don't fully sign in..that service shows up. It stays there after you uninstall the app.

Just tested and confirmed on my Google phone.

• #5

Dang.... demand to figure out how to block that from getting installed. Or how to fully rid information technology from the phone after.
Or does it only testify up if you start the app? So if I don't offset it up, I'm good?
I'll report back here in just a scrap

If you uninstall it, the service shouldn't show up. Try rebooting after uninstalling and see if information technology goes away

I'll study back here in simply a fleck

Going to take to flash dorsum to stock and uninstall it before you start information technology. I had never uninstalled it or started information technology. It was not in my running services when I showtime looked. And then remove it earlier yous start information technology.

Nope, information technology stays there even after reboot. It pops back up for a second running then moves to the cached in background section.

Bummer, just ran the flash all minus the -due west and it's notwithstanding there. So information technology's part of the User partition. Gonna take a full wipe I call up. I am not worried nigh it, but enjoying figuring out the puzzle.

I'm right at that place with you. I don't understand why that procedure persists.

I've got slow wifi at my identify, so information technology make take a fleck for me to study back in. Currently installing all apps I had on my telephone before, root, and and then pop my sim bill of fare back in.

Goal- basically stop verizon apps download while in process.

Not sure what that process is/was doing. Or what information information technology is sending. But I really don't see why it needs to be taking upward memory, or why it needs to exist sending any information.

Thanks for looking into it with me.

Going to have to flash dorsum to stock and uninstall information technology before you start information technology. I had never uninstalled it or started information technology.

I think it must exist connected to the Sim carte du jour.
Mill reset, root, no verizon apps installed or downloaded
And it's nonetheless showing up in the running/cached processes.
It was non there when the Sim card was not in.

I'm curious if Dart or T-Mobile folks have a similar process.

• #10

Got it killed.

Install All In 1 Toolbox from the play shop, requires root for what we are doing. Burn down it up and you lot tin disable services from startup. My Verizon Services was there, disabled it and rebooted and it is gone. So I uninstalled All In One and rebooted. Still gone.

I dearest the smell of burnt Verizon in the morn.

Be interesting to see if whatever side effects, like lost voicemail notifications.

Are yous using the Verizon app by chance?? I have the same setup as yous, and I use the app to check my information usage periodically. If your on wifi, you won't meet it running under programmer options. Yet, if y'all use it on mobile information, and deny the location prompt when y'all open up the app, it'll stay running in the groundwork searching. When your back on wifi, it'll even so run, so I merely go to developer options and shut it down.

Nice one.... worked like a charm. Thank you

Got information technology killed.

Install All In One Toolbox from the play store, requires root for what nosotros are doing. Fire it up and you tin disable services from startup. My Verizon Services was there, disabled information technology and rebooted and it is gone. Then I uninstalled All In One and rebooted. However gone.

If you put a VZ SIM in the phone it pulls My Verizon. If yous start the app...even if you don't fully sign in..that service shows up. It stays at that place after you lot uninstall the app.

Only tested and confirmed on my Google phone.

Is the service related to the My Verizon app or is it due to network connectivity, specifically LTE Advanced Calling and/or Wifi calling? And you said you disabled and uninstalled it with a root app, which I can't use. Merely have you noticed anything untoward after disabling it? I click on it in the Buried Services tab and it says an onetime app cached but bachelor if needed. Doesn't seem similar it's doing anything weird. Phone is working fine and no crazy data or battery bleed. (I have a Pixel 2 and non the XL version)

• #15

Oasis't noticed anything detrimental. Though I did do a full wipe before doing all this because I was having some functioning lag issues, like home screen swipes not existence smooth, increased time while switching between apps.

I would be curious to know what it's actually doing since I never had any Verizon related apps loaded onto the phone.
If you watch the running processes screen during load up you'll see it run for a few seconds and then move over into the cached processes.

I don't know enough about debugging, but it would be interesting to run across what it'due south doing and if it'south sending or receiving any information.

But...I no longer accept it running and so I'm currently unable to practise and then.

It's needed for VZ wifi calling. I froze it, wifi calling instantly stopped. Unfroze instantly worked once again.

Wonder what other Verizon services rely on it to office. Figured I'd reach out to Google via the support chat to see if they might know, simply they were pretty much useless.
