Solution 1:

You CAN uninstall WITHOUT rooting:

To uninstall an app:

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user0 app--package--name--here

Example, uninstalling youtube:

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user0 com.google.android.youtube

To list apps by package names:

adb shell pm list packages

To list only system package names:

adb shell pm list packages -s

Here is a list of system apps that you may want to uninstall:

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user0 com.android.chrome &&
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user0 com.htc.sense.browser &&
