This has nothing to do with Terminal Emulator, it's working fine ->
adb stands for android debug bridge, it's meant to be a way to do stuff with your android device from your computer over the "bridge" that is USB. It says "waiting for device" because it needs a USB android device to be connected. As far as I know, even with OTG you can't use adb actually on an android device itself with Terminal Emulator. If all you want to do is uninstall an app, you shouldn't need adb anyway.

Unfortunately, this isn't working for me - still no play store, but there's an entry for com.android.vending in Manage Apps with a grey icon (generic app icon with a little SD card in the bottom right corner) and a size of 0.00b. Anyone know what I missed?

Edit: Fixed it! Needed to do "adb uninstall com.android.vending" and then reboot. The store is back now.

Try run the following in Terminal Emulator:
Code:
pm uninstall com.android.vending
* You must find out the vending apk and delete it first (If the apk exists and is a system app).

As mentioned by @HTCDreamOn, adb is for you to run commands from Windows and since you are working with Terminal Emulator you do not need to deal with adb related command.
Also mentioned earlier that you MUST manually delete the apk first before you can uninstall the app if it is a system app.
To do that first find out where the vending apk located. assumed that you have busybox/grep installed, run the following in Terminal Emulator:
pm list packages -f | grep vending
You should get something like this:
package:/system/app/vending.apk=com.android.vending
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
* Actual filename & path may vary depending on device
Now that you know where the apk is, eg: /system, mount the /system rw and delete the vending.apk manually.
Then you can proceed to uninstall using the following command:
pm uninstall com.android.vending
Success :laugh:
Thx!
I dont want to make new thread so my another question is why i cant go to ini.d folder when its exists?
Look at my screenshot
//EDIT: SOLVED
I turned off Auto download on WiFi, but I'm not confident it will stop update to Oreo.
Anyone know if/what I need to do to prevent the update?
I found in Developer Options an auto system update option that I turned off but it still updated. Dammit!
No help from anyone here either. Maybe it can't be prevented.
I have deactivated network access for the app „System Update“ and deactivated the search for updates from within the update app.
Seems to work.
I'll keep that in mind if it happens again.
Update on turning off updates in Developer options: I have since found this to be what happens after turning off auto update in dev options:
It downloads the update
It puts a notice up that it has upgraded and I need to boot (that was when I posted about it still updating)
But turns out it does not actually perform the update.
It is a bit annoying. I get that notice and it remains in the notifications, even though I have gone in and turned off that notification. As long as it doesn't update, I guess I can live with it.
As it's already downloaded, I'd say your options won't help me at this point.
To get rid oft the notification, open Settings » Apps and delete data an cache oft the Systemupdate app. Then continue restricting its network access ( all three options) and notifications. To be sure, disable its ability to change system settings.

I presume I disable network access under networked apps menu. The only access listed there is mobile. I would think it could still get there when hooked to Wi-Fi.
Do not see an app called update for which to disable search. But I have applied all of your other suggestions, and appreciate your help.
without root : adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.android.hwouc
Done !
I was surprised...just got another prompt to update. Wanted access to photos. I denied and cancelled. I haven't had that particular promo for a while. I bet outs prompting now because I deleted the download. Although I have auto update turned off in developer options.

But I can't get ADB to recognize the phone. I have USB Debugging turned on. I have Hisuite able to see it. But ADB does not see it.
When I search Google for how to do ADB on the Mate 9, I keep getting led to info about installing fastboot. When I go to the Huwaei site to download the fastboot / adb stuff, the site freezes.
Any suggestions?

Make sure to have ADB USB debugging enabled in Development menu. PC must be granted for debugging (from the phone side).
Ofc, drivers, etc must be installed to the PC - Minimal ADB and Fastboot package (search on XDA) will do
Problem is, I have already run the delete cmd from earlier in the thread (a reply to my original post here.) Now I need to reinstall. The post I quoted supposedly is how to do that, but I'm getting the errors noted. Going forward I will do it per your suggestion.
Hoping someone can give me correct syntax to revive the update functionality.

There is no ADB delete cmd - could you be precise and quote exactly the command you originally used?
And the ROGHT commands for ADB re-enabling and re-installing are e.g in my previous post, there are no other 'correct syntax' commands (Google search is also your friend)
If your ADB does not recognize
adb shell cmd package install-existing ...
then something is wrong with your ADB installation on PC or settings on the phone.
Follow the first link in my previous answer and set/install ADB exactly as described in the XDA article
Ofc, if you rooted the phone and you really DELETED hwouc, then you can not reinstall by ADB - but then ADB would not complain that it did not recognize the command but would complain that package did not exist
Hello guys, i need help. I'm accidentaly delete (or disable idk fully) EMUI system updater app (HwOUC.apk) so i can't see system updater in Settings. I'm tried to enable with ADB but nothing happened.
''pm enable com.huawei.android.hwouc
Package com.huawei.android.hwouc new state: enabled''
Says enabled but nothing.
adb shell cmd package install-existing com.huawei.android.hwouc
So you got your new shiny realme device but you hate bloatware or want to disable system apps so you can use 3rd party apps instead?
Follow the steps below:
THIS DOES NOT REQUIRE ROOT HOWEVER MAKE SURE NOT TO DISABLE IMPORTANT SYSTEM APPS. WIPE DATA/FORMATTING RE-ENABLES ALL SYSTEM APPS. THIS DOES NOT MESS WITH OTAs.
WHAT YOU NEED:-
ADB/Fastboot Drivers
Windows: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip,
Linux: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-linux.zip
DEBLOAT:-
1. Enable developer options by tapping on the build number 7 times and enable USB Debugging.
2. Plug in your phone.
3. Goto the folder where ADB is installed, hold shift and right click, and click on open command window here(windows).
4. Type
in CMD
Code:
adb devices
in Powershell
Code:
./adb devices
.
5. This should return the ID of your device and show if its authorised. Enable debugging Promt on your Phone if it shows unauthorised (allow this computer).
6. Type
in cmd
Code:
adb shell
in Powershell
Code:
./adb shell
.
7. This should display a prompt, something like RMXxxxx:/ $
8. To uninstall type
Code:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 <name of the package>
To disable type
Code:
pm disable-user --user 0 <name of the package>
eg: pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.heytap.browser / pm disable-user --user 0 com.heytap.browser
9. Done!
To reinstall uninstalled apps type
Code:
pm install-existing <name of the package>
To enable disabled apps type
Code:
pm enable <name of the package>
Some apps do not uninstall such as market and gamecenter, disabling is the only option.
Hi, I made a small shell script to remove bloat in my device. Anyone who are interested can check it.
Place it in root of Internal Storage, then
Code:
adb shell
sh /sdcard/bloat.sh.txt

Are you sure about that? Have you tried it yet with my brand new
universal make system read write flashable script
Hello!
I have a Panasonic p55 novo running stock Android 4.4.2. It has a lot of Google bloatware which causes the phone to lag terribly. So once I tried to debloat it via setting up ADB and running command adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 <package name >
but adb says something that user 0 not found or something like that. So I searched and found in some other forums a reply which said this is because multiuser feature was first introduced in Android 5.
My question is if the normal command is not working with KitKat devices, is there any other alternative command / method to debloat it? Any kind of script or an old command or a completely different method.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you
1. To uninstall apps you basically run
Code:
adb uninstall <package name>
2. To uninstall system apps phone's Android MUST be rooted, partition /system MUST get mounted as RW
