What it does
SmartEngine is a background component on ColorOS and OxygenOS with no screen of its own. Community testers report that some smart cards, the quick-glance cards in Shelf and on the home screen, fail to load without it, and that it otherwise runs on demand with no internet access of its own.
If you disable it

How to disable it
On most phones Settings greys out Disable for this package, so ADB is the way to turn it off. The commands below work without root and can be undone.
Disable it (reversible)
