Can't uninstall an app - General Questions and Answers

(I am a compete noob)
I have a Samsung galaxy s10 and I have installed an app via apk (untrusted source) but it's corrupt, so I uninstalled the app and downloaded it again via play store but it gives me the message " you cannot install this app because another user has already installed an incompatible version on this device".
I searched on how to remove this and I found that I have to delete it with adb shell pm uninstall but when I press enter it just doesn't give my any response message. just puts me to a new line. But I tried to remove another app and the adb shell gives me "inaccessible or not found shell'
What should I do to remove this app? I don't want to do a factory reset

[Q] Problem with DOOGEE COLLO DG100 - Applications not running

I've installed new firmware and I've rooted my device however I'm not able to download new applications and my GPS doesn't seem to be working.
Error "Package file wasn not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again. (option to uninstall is available but never works)
Does anyone else have these issues and does anyone have a fix most importantly?
Thank you,

Have a look at thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2479695 which has quite a lot of information on rooting and flashing this phone. For this particular problem, try the following:
1. Use a Root Uninstaller (I use System App Safe Remover) to uninstall Documents to Go, Skype, Twitter, YouTube and WhatsApp. Don't uninstall Facebook - I can't get that one to reinstall properly yet.
2. You can also uninstall unwanted stuff like 3D Live Weather, Weather, Weather Service and the Chinese keyboard if you want - I've installed Google Keyboard instead which seems much better.
3. Reboot the phone
4. Go to Settings / Apps / All and, for Google Play Services and Google Play Store, Clear Cache, Clear Data and Force Stop
5. Reboot the phone
6. Reinstall the desired apps from the Play Store
Docstogo won't reinstall properly - it'll give an error about a shared ID. Have a look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1219029- use ADB (via MTKdroidTools) to copy packages.xml to your computer, edit it to remove the DocstoGo section, copy it back to the phone, reboot, and install from Play Store:
1. adb shell chmod 666 /data/system/packages.xml
2. adb pull /data/system/packages.xml
3. Now edit (notepad++) and remove the shared user in question xml block from the file:
Code:
<shared-user name="com.docstogo" userId="xxxxx"> (or whatever)
...
</shared-user>
4. adb push packages.xml /data/system
5. adb shell rm /data/dalvik-cache/*
6. adb reboot
Hope that helps.

You can try to uninstall it manually, but it quite tricky to do it.
To install/uninstall apps or .wgt I use Tizen SDB tools
To push app/wgt to gear 2 use command prompt and navigate to sdb folder and type : sdb install app_name.wgt
To uninstall app/wgt it's a bit complicated, you have to know the app ID, to find app ID you have to rename .wgt to .zip and open the zip file. Inside zip file, find and open config.xml. The app id look something like this : <tizen:application id="ZYdli9xE8s" >
Then command prompt type: sdb uninstall ZYdli9xE8s. Replace ZYdli9xE8s with application ID you wish to uninstall.

Contcts database deleted by accident

Samsung A8, Android 7.1.1
I was following uninstalling via adb shell some of the unwanted apps on this phone, and i mistakenly removed the wrong onewith this:
pm uninstall --user 0 com.samsung.android.providers.contacts
I have all my contacts in cloud, but now the sync does not work, and when i use the contacts app (which i updated) to add a new contact it says
"no app was found to handle this action"
I have tried downloading the apk available elsewhere, but it does not work.
tried reinstalling the contacts app from playstore, same things
Any suggestions are welcome to fix this without a phone reset.
Thanks.

I doubt you can actually fix it without factory reset. Last thing you can try is to download the apk again and install it with
Code:
pm install --user 0 [B]apklocation[/B]
If it doesn't works, proceed with a Factory Reset. Please don't mess again with thing you don't know

2 - Now, go to the developer and enable the USB Debugging option.
3 - Connect your phone to your PC via USB cable and open an elevated(Run as Administrator) command window.
4 - Enter the command “adb shell” and press Enter.
Now, enter the commands from the list below to remove the respective app.
pm uninstall –k ––user 0 Name Of The App

Yeah I've done this on the chinese ROM, can't remember exactly what i did remove (it wasn't exactly that list), I used an app called 'Package Names' from the Play Store to help identify which ones I wanted to remove.
It is a bit risky so I targeted the Breeno voice stuff and apps that I knew wouldn't be system critical, has been a success.
Google assistant now working. Also google feed now comes up instead of the breeno feed thing.
Nearly feels like a european ROM, my only remaining niggle is how to get location tracking turned back on for google maps timeline.

Yes same here as well. DId you manage to get the google feed to display English instead of straight Chinese characters as well?
As a bit of information, IDK if you've played around with defaults aswell:
I have been trying to get past the default app limits arbitrarily placed in the OS. I followed similar instructions to above to get a working SMS app other than the stock Messages. For me personally, I enjoy using Textra.
First I backed up the stock messages app and then removed it via the method above. Then I reinstalled it. Next I deleted Textra and then reinstalled it as well. I set Textra to default in the Textra app itself. Finally I removed Messages. I can message in Textra, but every time I receive a message the entire system has a hint box that appears that suggests to change preferences. It is important to note that the OS does not recognize Textra as the default, but it functions as one since the default is removed temporarily.

I think this is a sytem app,
So as to remove it ,you need root previlage ,
AS the twrp for realmex50pro is not availabe,you need to do this,
extract your bl of your current rom,
install magisk ,use magisk to patch the bl
boot to fastboot mode,flash the magisk patched bl,
boot to system,and complete the magisk install,
In magisk,set adb root previlage,
In adb command,type su,
then you type the correspondence delete command,
This time,Things will be done
Anyway,extract the bl of the current rom may be the most difficult task.
Try this website,I got it from another post,
GitHub - bkerler/oppo_ozip_decrypt: Oppo Firmware .ozip decrypter
Oppo Firmware .ozip decrypter. Contribute to bkerler/oppo_ozip_decrypt development by creating an account on GitHub.

,
this need python,I wonder if the depressed password of realme x50pro is included yet,
I tried realme x2,And it worked well.

Unable to uninstall whatsapp

I need to reinstall whatsapp to restore some chats but am unable uninstall whatsapp. When I click uninstall it just bounces me back to the app settings. Have also tried ADB and a couple of uninstall apps with no joy. The whatsapp version installed was the apk direct from whatsapp, not transferred using phone clone and other than youtube vanced I am am running HMS only.
Any ideas?
Hi there,
Did you tried to first clean cache and data in WhatsApp before uninstalling ?
Also, you can look if there is an update on official whatsapp website, apply it, and then try to uninstall ?
Tried cache and storage and no luck, pretty sure I have the latest version but I'll take a look.
From memory I had this issue when I got my first P40 pro last year and ended up going the factory reset route.
You said you tried with ADB, so I suppose you typed something like this :
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.whatsapp
Is there any error message ?

I did not note it down, think it was something like invalid command. I'll try again tomorrow.
Checked and I have the latest version of the app too.
Figured it out, I had to remove the memory card. No idea why but found it buried in a Huawei support article.
