I guess it's impossible to remove Google from Android phones. I have disabled Google, but cannot delete it. And it re-enabled itself later. The only way out of this, I'm thinking, is an alternative operating system for the phone.

@Earl@mast.john1126.com No you can definitely have Android without Google, but it takes work: you'd need to flash e.g. Lineage and NOT include gapps (Google apps) or Google Play Services. I've done that on 3 phones, without the issues you've reported there
