How to uninstall Google Play services step by step
Google Play Services is that component of Android, which today has become fundamental for the operating system, which manages feature updates and Google services that initially depended on Android updates.
Generally, it is enough to wait for a corrective update to resolve the problem spontaneously. Given the importance of the service, it is strongly recommended not to proceed with temporary deactivation or removal.

How to uninstall Google Play services (Root)
Despite all the above attempts, you were unable to clear the error messages from your phone and intend to uninstall Google Play services?
Unlocking root/root
Without the necessary premises, it is time to take action. As Google Play Services is a system application, it must obtain root permissions in advance to proceed with its elimination. If you’ve never heard of it, this procedure should be used to authorize access to “sensitive” parts of the operating system, including applications built into it. Please note that root unlocking on Android is not a risk-free procedure. In the worst case, where the steps were not performed correctly, the device on which it acts could become an unusable device.
- Once the root permissions have been obtained on the terminal, you can remove Google Play Services using third-party software developed for removing applications from the system.
- In this sense, I would recommend the Deleter Root application, one of the best Free designed for this purpose, which can effectively remove even the “fundamental” parts of Android (at your own risk, of course).
- Once the app is installed and started, give it root permissions by pressing, when prompted, the button Authorize, then touch the button System applications and then touch the item pro.
- At this point, identify Google Play services in the proposed list.
As you can see, its name is marked in red, as the service is an integral part of the Android system and should not be touched.
However, if you want to continue, touch the entry of the application in question and, knowing that the operation you are about to perform could have severe consequences in Google applications, as well as in all the stability of the device, press the button to uninstall that appears on the next screen, responding affirmatively to the notices that appear later. When you’re done, restart the terminal for the changes to take effect.
