Hello Jirafey,

Samsung "Game Optimising Service" is a special one and difficult to dispose/disable on several Samsung devices. some background: https://r2.community.samsung.com/t5/Tech-Talk/Samsung-rolling-out-update-for-GOS-service/m-p/11018126 https://www.reuters.com/article/samsung-elec-mobile-idCNL3N2W40FL

The XDA thread dealing with (extreme) Samsung debloating has a special section "Remove Game Optimizing Service (GOS)​" to disable (i.e. not uninstall) GOS: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-no-root-complete-samsung-oneui-optimization.4376755

thats just to much effort for me. I am too paranoid about privacy and my phone but this is just a waste of time, probably will do it wrong. Anyways, thank you dear friend.

Thanks for the link. I executed the commands listed on the page and can confirm that the Game Optimizing Service stays uninstalled even after rebooting
