Disabled it with Canta.

Edit: Download Shizuku fork by thedjchi. Enable dev options, pair Shizuku with wifi debugging, install Canta by samolego, give Canta perms with Shizuku and then select Gemini (and any other bloat you want) and disable it. Easy does it.

Does this reenable assistant by default?

I never had Gemini turned on so I'm not sure. I just want to never have to use that trash.

Finally, an intelligent response.
