I changed my CSC from INS to SER and I realized that Bixby was missing here. Since currently no Google Assistant is rolled out to wear os, I'm thinking of giving Bixby a chance. I couldn't find it in the list of installed apps and I tried to check the list of installed packages via running the following command and found only com.samsung.android.bixby.wakeup available.
adb pm list packages | grep bixby

So I just looked around the apk mirror and tried to install https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/bixbywatchapp-wear-os/ via adb but I got the following error

Having exactly the same issue, except my GW4 is locked to Russia with no Bixby app

Mines also Russia (SER). Maybe share this thread in some other channels where the developers would be active so they can take a look.

Hey @mcront35
I've seen this already over at -
. But the UI is clunky and barely usable (since a modded version of the phone google assistant) but its working good. In my case, I've simply wanted to get a glimpse of a native voice assistant built for the watch. Anyways, thanks for sharing this.

First of all, yes, I know there are other threads with this issue, but they didn't solve my case.
I have the famous problem with the shared user id. Whenever I try to install it, it says "Incompatible with other application(s) using the same shared user ID". I have tried putting it directly to /system/app, and I also have followed this guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1219029&highlight=services), but with no result. It seems to rebuild this file in the reboot, so it's useless. I have a chinese phone without CWM recovery, so I can't flash anything, but I do have root.
Please, help me install Google play services in any way! Thank you so much!

Your issue is that China devices dont have the rights to run Google apps. That is why they are not included.

Its because play services are not autherized on China based devices. You are gonna have to make it think it is another device. I did some searching and found that this is due to Google not allowing the play store on China based devices due to their lack of respecting copyrights.

Then, how you explain that my phone has installed google play store, gmail, hangouts, google maps, and more? It is JUST play services what I can't install! I doubt the error related to "shared user ID" is caused by a country restriction
Ok, now it is happening also on my HTC Desire HD... Obviously it's not caused by the region, since this one was bought in my country (Spain). Still, I wasn't able to fix it on either device... please, this is so annoying! I need help!
up, please!
I have this problem too!!!
I hope someone would help us, I don't know what else to do!
I have the same problem and have tried different solutions but none of them works. There was one solution, which works in this way that you delete some text passages from the packages.xml file. But i didn´t it in the file. I guess there must be written com.google.android.gms or something.
Maybe another one found it?

I upgraded successfully to pie, but was getting bootloops after debloating (using same app list i use in oreo), i use titanium backup to freeze or Uninstall apps.
The bootloop was caused when Uninstalling the AVG protection app, so instead this app should be freezed if not needed.
Maybe this info help someone else doing a XZ1 debloating.
u must non-active All the Device admin, then u can start debloat with Titanium backup....
do that step when u want experiment with PIE system
i was not know this method before, i found this method when frustate why my device Bootloop 3 times every uninstall stock App... :laugh:
I got the same problem using titanuim and debloathed by simply search and delete the files using root explorer

I was debloating as well when my device decided to bootloop. What's funny is that I'd done this countless times on Oreo and never got a single bootloop. Apparently some of the apps are closely attached to the system core, that's my guess.

I don't think so ´cause if I debloat manually by deleting the files in file system it works like a charm.....but it´s of course a very timeconsuming way to do it.
I think there are some other system change with makes inconistencies in the system when titanium backup (and other) programs are used for debloat.
But of course, I have not debloated very "hard", just facebook, amazon, antivirus and some other small stuff.
Basically "debloat" means removal of app; since every ota will bring and active back removals, you should instead freeze annoying apps: Titanium or 3Ctools works fine with latest Magisk 17.3 on XZ1.
I have all these disabled without any hiccups/bootloop (including AVG):

To use systemwide audioFX on videos, you must use Sony (bloated) Album app : conversely to what said in today xdaNews/XZs, with the 2x speakers or bluetooth only, I have Eq ClearBass and ClearAudio+ working , so it looks to be a bug/hiccup for wired earphones option (?).

There's only one problem... It isn't part android one..
With latest 47.2.A.2.33-November Security Update and even the October one.
I've just found out that AVG Protection is the culprit that keeps breaking my phone when I forcibly remove it through titanium backup.
For now it's disabled but any attempts to delete it off the phone results in phone bootloop(at the sony logo). Every other junk app is been removed as always except for that one.
I'll dig around to see what I can find out about it's relationship to the OS.
------------------later----------
Using ES File explorer on root I was able to remove AVG antivirus without bootloop.
my phone has been doing weird stuff lately like apps that i specificaly turned off will now turn on by themselves, my battery drains faster too, getting more calls from a "private number".
i updated my phone to the latest update and it runs android 9 pie.
all apps are up to date aswell. i check that often.
i scanned with malwarebytes but it found nothing suspicious.
bootloader is locked aswell. not rooted.
any ideas about what might be happening or how to fix this?
thanks in advance.
If you turn off an user-app it only gets stopped for the time you have Android actually running. When you restart Android then it's brought back to life again.

I have this phone for like 2 years now, those apps that i disabled have remained disabled for 2 years now even when i restart phone or shutdown and boot up again. now suddenly 3 of them enable themselves while i am not doing anything.
1: Youtube app
2: Google News app
3: Google Photo app.
These apps were disabled for at least 2 years. i have no clue how they can re-enabled themselves without me pushing the enable button.

no need, i am glad you tried to help. maybe it sounds a bit dull but it has been like this for a whole week now where i have to make sure i dont update these apps and disable them first before using google play to update all apps.
i changed launcher now to Evie launcher. maybe that work since these apps dont enable themselves for a full day now.
seems like its still going even after launcher change. its only those 3 apps that were disabled and now get enabled automatically.
Why not simply uninstall the apps in question?

You can disable them with adb commands. It effectively hides them. When done right the system no longer sees them as installed or running and they dont get updates from the play store anymore. Should sort out your problem with them re-enabling automatically. Not sure if you have done this already,but if not,give it a try.

Oke i have not tried it via adb, what i recently tried tho was unlocking my bootloader, but in adb my phone was only detected in normal usage mode where all the apps are, but in downloadmode it disapeared, even with the right driver installed.
So i have to run a few codes via adb when my phone is turned on with all the apps visible?

Yes,connect your phone powered up to your usb port of your laptop or p.c. and open adb command. Then run the command adb devices to make sure adb picks up your phone. If it does,you are good to go. Do you know how which command lines to run etc to uninstall apps in adb?

Bloatware is stored in Android OS partitions /system and/or /system-priv. Hence one needs ROOT privileges to remove it.

You don't need to unlock/root your phone to delete some of the built-in apps/services, just use adb commands https://selivan.github.io/2020/02/25/removing-bloatware-from-xiaomi-miui-android.html

thanks ! only miui scanner and themes left for me , other is all remove
Almost the same here (I kept Cleaner and Themes)
And I also removed Quick Ball (com.miui.touchassistant)
After crossing informations from various thread on the net (I googled "debloat xiaomi miui 12") I ended up uninstalling 50 apps from my brand new Note 10.
And I kept any app for which there was any doubt !
I really like this one https://github.com/Szaki/XiaomiADBFastbootTools
This might not be the right place to ask this question but I have been lurking here for a bit and am hoping someone can help me out.
A quick bit of background. I just recently started using Android Tablets. So far all I do with them is to read ebooks, browse the web in an emergency, and, wirelessly access my Xfinity live TV and Peacock streaming service. I have 3 Onn tablets (7", 8" and 10") one of which is Android 10 and the other two are Android 11.
I have absolutely no interest in anything Google and have disabled pretty much all the pre-installed apps based on guides I found here. The only pre-installed apps I use are Files-by-google and Gboard. I use the Nova7 launcher. I do have a google account and access to the google play store but only use it in the extremely rare case I want a purchased app, otherwise I download APK's from sites like APKMirror and APKPure to my PC, validate them using MetaDefend and VirusTotal and then load to the device via usb.
I also have no interest in any cloud based storage.
In general I have all goggle apps disabled. In the rare case I do use the play store I have to first enable Google Play Services and Google Play Store and then once the specific app is installed I re-disable Google Play Services and Store. Also I only go online to use the Xfinity and Peacock apps, everything else I do offline.
So everything worked as I wanted it until at some point I allowed an Android 11 "security patch" to install on one of my Android 11 devices. Immediately I could no longer install any APK file on that device (see attached). Note that previously I could install apps with the Nova7 launcher, the Files app, the Files-by-google app and Firefox, all of which are enabled to install unknown apps. Now all of these methods result in the same error message (see attached). Still no problem installing on the Android 10 device or the other Android 11 device that I've kept from updating.
So does anyone know how I can get back to being able to install APK's? I've followed the standard recommendations of restarting the device, making sure install unknown apps is enabled and reset app preferences and the only thing that I see to do at this point is a factory reset. A factory reset would cause me a whole lot of pain to set things back up to how they were before and I'm not even sure that a factory reset is guaranteed to fix this.
Can anyone help me?
A factory reset won't undo the update.
If that is the cause and there's no work around you would need to reflash to the version without the update. System upgrades/updates tend to break things...

That's what I was afraid of.
At this point for $59 I can throw out the old one and buy another but that brings up the question of how to disable system updates.
Would rooting the device solve the problem?
So far I've been able to do everything I wanted to do using adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 <package_to_disable>.
But given I'm going to throw the device out if I can't fix this, it seems like the perfect candidate to risk trying to root.

The Package Disabler app that you showed in your screenshot looked like a better way to go that what I've been doing which is to use Application Inspector along with ADB but I've had some problems trying to install it.
For one thing they change a couple of things in MI settings and I don't have that category of setting. The bottom line is that I still haven't been able to get PD to work although the set-device-owner command did seem to work and resulted with the following:
C:\ADB>adb shell dumpsys device_policy
Current Device Policy Manager state:
Device Owner:
admin=ComponentInfo{com.pdp.deviceowner/com.pdp.deviceowner.receivers.AdminReceiver}
name=
package=com.pdp.deviceowner
isOrganizationOwnedDevice=true
User ID: 0
Enabled Device Admins (User 0, provisioningState: 3):
com.pdp.deviceowner/.receivers.AdminReceiver:
uid=10156
followed by a whole bunch of other stuff.
At this point it seems best to forget about Package Disabler and just continue with Application Inspector and ADB but I'm worried that the device owner change I made is going to screw me up sooner or later.
My question is do I have to do (yet another) factory reset and reinstall all my stuff or is there an easier way for me to undo this owner setting?
PS. I suddenly got a notification "this device belongs to your organization" This must have something to do with the owner thing.

The Package Disabler app that you showed in your screenshot looked like a better way to go that what I've been doing which is to use Application Inspector along with ADB but I've had some problems trying to install it.

Not sure as I never used that approach. I use whatever comes in handy...
