I still didn't tested if removing that would provoke some incompatibility with the system or not, but I'm interested since that I'd like to remove HiCare too.
So, you could try to take a TWRP backup, remove the app (I'd rely on this method https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/ because normal root uninstallers won't work, i already tried that) and check if after booting to OS there would be impacts on system, somehow, or not.

or you convert them to user app via root uninstaller and then remove them. it works most of the times.

I'm used Titanium Backup to delete apps,but this worked not for all apps.For others download a app from PlayStore called App Inspector.This app shows "source dir" where apps are instaled(current folder location). Then removed with root explorer ? ?

Thanks to both of you for your answers, I'll try Shashank's one first

@shashank1320 mate just tried with this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kunkunsoft.rootuninstaller in combination with this BusyBox installer (required to convert system apps to normal by what root uninstaller prompted to me) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.meefik.busybox and after the apparently conversion, the uninstall process was marked as "successful" even if the apps remains there where they are. I'll try Martin213 method next

Thanks @Martin213, it worked as it should. App Inspector gave me the details on which folder i had to follow for directly extirpate those apps straight from the root.

Hey Martin, removing these apps gave you some problems in following days or not? While removing some apps last time i come at a point where the latest TWRP backups made was impossible to restore... Did you noticed any other issues on OS functionality after removing Huawei services, ecc.?

.

Martin213 said:
No I didn't face any issue accept gmail sync delay... SOMETIMES So installed Huawei services back But I'm not sure maybe this issue for greenify,magisk module "doze sleep for google services" or battery power saving mod. After removing these apps and services i re-lashed firm and restored TWR backup successfully​ so no issue there too. Maybe something else call you TWRP functionality problems.

Super Manager is free from the market and you can enable silent installs on restores I believe.

Have you ever used it to restore system data? What about after flashing to a different ROM? Backing up system data with TiBu is only useful if you are restoring to the same ROM version, otherwise you get force closes that will require a reflash. I'd like something that lets me restore system data across any ROM even if it is only my contacts, BT pairings, e-mail accounts and wifi settings. That's the stuff I hate having to redo every time I flash a ROM.

I have the same problem.
/Dons flame suit
I tried to improve on battery life by converting both Google Play services and Google Play store to user apps with the intention to Greenify them (Don't ask ... I just wanted to try something). From the moment I did that, I got the message "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped". I converted it back to system apps, but this did not solve the issue. Since then I tried a lot of things:
1. Install Google Play Services 4.5.10 fresh
2. Wipe cache and dalvik cache
3. Clearing their cache individually
4. Wipe data
5. Wipe data, force stop
6. Retrieve both from a previous nandroid backup
7. Restore previous nandroid backup

I am at the point now where I can browse the play store without getting the message, but when I:
1. Try to update apps (from device)
2. Install a new app (from device)
3. Install app from Google Play Store on PC/laptop
... I get the stupid message again.
Bottom line, I messed up and would like to get full functionality back.
Please assist

I also downloaded and tried to install the following two APKs
com.google.android.gms-4.1.31(965943-30).apk
PrebuiltGmsCore.apk

Just clean flash the rom and gapps again. Or wipe and reinstall stock. Whatever your using.

Complete uninstall system app or Install app with conflicting package

Hey guys, excuse my ignorance before I begin.
I am trying to install a modded Spotify apk on my Samsung GS7 Nougat [Rooted]. Spotify already comes pre-installed as a system app on my phone so installation fails due to "conflicting package".
Is there a way to complete uninstall a system app? I've tried titanium backup but it simply disables it, giving me the same installation error.
Alternatively is there a foolproof way of install the modded apk side by side with the "disabled" system app?

Yea that's possible, maybe a security thing, certain KNOX related apps won't run once you've rooted and tripped knox either
EDIT - It seems without encryption you can not use secure startup, you must have wiped and removed encryption

Did you install it?
Make a copy via ApkExport
Scan with online Virustotal. Decide.
If you uninstall it and that doesn't work, factory reset.
i don't know if i installed it. till i know as installation was done on the date i mentioned, at that time pendamic was active. i was not working anymore on that time so as i know about that time i din't installed it but just a hours ago i notice this app in my installed app note as system apps.

It looks like a rooting app.
I'm not familiar with that device manufacturer or app. However it looks like a high risk apk to me especially if you're not rooted and can't recall downloading it. It's probably capable of causing a lot of damage.
If running on Android 9 or higher, a factory reset should purge any root kits if present. If you do a factory reset, set a new Google account password (make sure you write it down correctly) after the factory reset. Change any other critical passwords.

Question Youtube Vanced "installation failed because the user tried to downgrade the package"

I am rooted and bootloader unlocked running the stock rom. I recently wiped the device as part of the steps for enabling 32 bit app support, ever since then I have been unable to re-install youtube vanced. Prior to wiping the device I had no issues running youtube vanced.... The device is a T-Mobile variant, bootloader unlocked and rooted with Magisk Delta installed. I saw a post about running the debloater module to remove youtube and reinstall vanced but this did not work for me :/ Any suggestions/tips or other members that have encountered this issue? I will attach a screenshot of the errors.
Edit to Include the solution for anybody else who encounters this: install the Vanced Magisk module- https://github.com/j-hc/revanced-magisk-module/releases

use app de-bloater (APK + magisk module) to uninstall completely YouTube and YouTube music before u try to install Vance's.
You can also try YouTube ReVanced (no root needed)

Thank you my friend This worked for me
Hello, I could only make it work with SystemlessDebloater:
1) Install the module using Magisk, do not reboot phone.
2) In download directory chang file SystemlessDebloaterList.sh to have REPLACE="YouTube" (case matters)
3) Install the module again.
4) It should detect package com.google.android.youtube, reboot and then vanced youtube installer worked.

FYI that is reVanced not Vanced. Vanced is currently no longer in development and if far different to what you are used to with Vanced. You will also likely need to sideload a specific version of the YouTube apk and install that for all/most patches to work. Currently its sitting at 18.49.36 but until not so long ago (not sure when) it was 17.49.37 which for example I am currently on.

Huh, thanks. never heard of this and I honestly just always uninstalled first. I guess this is just a convenience or an improvement to the process as I can't imagine a case for myself where I couldn't just uninstall with/without backing up user data first and then downgrade.

This method works for me! My question is: Can we remove the module after succesfull installation of Vanced? Or if we remove the module we get stuck again with bloatware Youtube app?
If i remove just the config.cfg file ( New Version create .cfg file in Download ) would also return the Youtube bloatware app?
