I used the method of typing
pm uninstall --user 14 com.android.app
To uninstall some system apps. Since I have root, I did not use the -k parameter, but I uninstalled it for another user on my phone. I have the app on my user, but not on the other user. Whenever I try to reinstall it for the other user using
pm install --user 14 /data/app/com.android.app-1/base.apk
I get an error saying the app is already installed. Is there a way I can add the app to the user? Like I said earlier I have root access.

I am still with locked bootloader and unrooted for now. Anytime in the future I will probably switch to a custom ROM, but for now I want to 'experience the miui'. I am however removing some bloatware. I was able to do it via the pm uninstall command via adb shell. I removed all (system)apps I wanted to remove but for some reason I could not remove:
com.google.inputmethod.pinyin
It gives me this result:
whyred:/ $ pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.inputmethod.pinyin
Failure [not installed for 0]
I disabled MIUI optimization in Develop options and rebooted, but this did not help..
Does anyone know why I cannot uninstall this keyboard?
EDIT: Never mind, it was not a system app I guess. Just uninstalled it via the phone.. LOL :silly:
I'm in a same positionnement as you, I'd be interested if you knowing information to debloat the phones.
thx

Can you please tell how to debloated the system with commands I also like to do so but lack the knowledge
Can anyone please tell me how I can remove completely uninstall the Project Fi app from my rooted Pixel 2?
After leaving PF I found out that they made it so you can't uninstall it , only disable.
I've searched online and looked in the directories suggested, but the app isn't found since they were doing this on different phones.
adb shell pm -k --user 0 package name here
titanium backup also works well for removing system apps

Hi there,
is there an easy way to debloat the one plus?
In the past it was possible with fastboot and the following command e.g.:
Code:
pm uninstall --user 0 cn.oneplus.nvbackup
But this did not work Any ideas?
Use magisk module Debloater.
I had to use a combination of Debloater along with the pm uninstall commands to remove several things that Debloater did not find (Netflix and YouTube among others).
@deadzombieseverywhere: Thank you. That works
Are there already some "safe" lists to use for the OP9?
@Slikkster2k: I will try that. For my op7 I found a long list, what to delete without issues. For the op9 it did not exist up till now, right? Where did you find Netflix?
Code:
pm uninstall --user 0 com.netflix.partner.activation
this did not work for me
I used
Code:
pm list packages -a
to list all packages, then searched the list for what I wanted to remove, and removed it with
Code:
pm uninstall --user 0 <package>
How is it not working for you? Did you get an error?
Mh, it works perfekt...the problem was me not the phone
Or use this app.
I will try, when necessary again
Question: Did somebody know how to get the ability to change the hosts file?
AdAway won't work, so I tried to change the rights at the hosts file, but even with root I was not able to get access...any suggestions?
Did you set AdAway to work systemlessly? And to use systemless hosts in Magisk?
Yes I did...the funny thing is, I had "full root" Firewall was working, but AdAway did not word. I installed Magisk again in the app and suddenly Adaway was working...strange.
Hello there people I have been trying to uninstall few android apps from a Xiaomi device but it seems some of them are throwing this error
whyred:/ $ pm uninstall -k --user 0 "com.xiaomi.calendar" Failure [-1000]
Does anyone have any idea how do I go about fixing this problem ? I would really appreciate any kind of help.
Thanks
My guess is the mentioned app is installed as a system-privileged app: such apps can only get uninstalled by a user with elevated rights, means he/she must be superuser.
BTW:
Uninstalling an app is applied with command
Code:
adb uninstall <PKG-NAME>
Hello, is there any guide in how to uninstall pre-installed apps like youtube and youtube music from the stock rom please?
Also another question - is it safe using apps like Shelter or Insular to use them for banking apps and outlook emails?
you can use adb commands.
first do
Code:
adb shell
then check ur user id (typically 0 but if it isnt then replace accordingly)
Code:
pm list users
to disable or uninstall apps for your user do
Code:
pm disable-user --user 0 com.some.package.name
pm uninstall --user 0 com.some.package.name
to enable or re-install apps for your user do
Code:
pm enable com.some.package.name
pm install-existing com.some.package.name
no idea about your second question, maybe open another thread for it, I doubt many people will find it here after reading the title is about installing apps.
