I can't uninstall any application

Open DAIIIIIIIIIIIIII opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

I download the program, I start it in administrator, I select the apps I wanted to uninstall, I press the button to uninstall the selected apps, and nothing happens. I go to see on the log file and it is full of errors. UAD_20220921.log

 User version can not delete system package

This is the first time I see this error message. It looks like TCL is now preventing users to perform a pm uninstall on system packages.

Try to switch to the disable mode from the settings. It seems to work

disabling apps is not what I wanted... also because they find the way sooner or later to reactivate themselves

Yes but as you can't do pm uninstall, it's better to try pm disable-user than do nothing. And I'd really like to know if pm disable-user works on your phone.

also because they find the way sooner or later to reactivate themselves

Know that even with pm uninstall, some "uninstalled" apps will be reactivated if they are updated through a system update (and you shouldn't delay system updates as they also contain security fixes)

pm disable-user

yes the command to disable applications works with system apps that do not uninstall
