Hi all,
Two things.
I am trying to find the file the phone downloaded to upgrade to A12 but I cant find it. I didn't upgrade but I am sure the file was downloaded. I have tried to find it connecting the phone to the laptop, I have not root (not sure if a I need it)
The thing is that I dont want to upgrade the system to A12 but the phone has already downloaded the file. I would like to delete it. Please note that I have just taken the mobile from the box and I had updated via OTA to the last A11 firmware.
Another question, I also have a oneplus nord 1 and could stop the update app using this adb commands:
cmd
adb shell
adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.oneplus.opbackup
But they dont work in the oneplus nord 2. I get the message "inaccessible or not found". Is there any other command for oneplus nord 2?
Thanks!

The OTA file is located on a partition that you cannot access.
Thanks to the ADB AppControl, it is easier to find services/applications responsible for downloading and notifying about updates.

Sure. Like Google play services. There is a thread here about what to disable. Cheers.

I've had a Motorola G4 Amazon Prime edition for sometime now and I was easily able to hide the package that displayed the lock screen ads (com.amazon.phoenix) soon after purchase. Unfortunately, when the Nougat update came rolling around, that hack no longer did the trick. So I spent a couple of hours searching through docs and trying different commands, in doing so I found a way to completely disable any and all packages installed on any Android device, system or carrier/manufacturer bloatware.
**Step by Step**
1. Install USB drivers for your Device
2. Download and Install ADB tools
3. Enable[ Developer Options](http://wccftech.com/enable-developer-options-android-nougat/) and [USB Debugging](https://technosamigos.com/enable-usb-debugging-on-android-nougat-phones/)
4. Find a good USB cable, plug it into your computer and then to your device. When the pop-up appears asking you to authorize the device, allow it.
5. Open a command prompt (cmd in windows) and type:
adb devices
6. This should return the ID of your device. If not, please go back and retrace your steps.
7. Now type:
adb shell
8. Use the following commands to find the apps you want to disable (replace 'amazon' with the manufacturer, i.e. 'samsung')
adb shell cmd package list packages | grep 'amazon
9. This should give you a new prompt, something to the effect of (device-model):/ - here type the following:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 <name of package>
This should return 'Success' at which point the package has been removed!
This has been tried on about half a dozen devices and it works on every single one, including the LG G6, Samsung S8, Google Pixel (Removed System Applications!)
Hope this helps folks out there that are looking to get as clean of an Android experience as possible, good luck!
And how to revert a single package removed with this method?
Please don't say factory reset. I mean, the package is there in the system partition. How I make it available to the user again?
Replying to my self and to the history. Xda user Vordx, found a proper way.
"adb shell cmd package install-existing <package name>"
" cmd package install-existing" doesn´t work in Android 7, how can I reinstall apk ?
I used this guide to uninstall some apps:
https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
The problem is, I want to install one of them back, I tried the option mentioned on the guide:
adb shell cmd package install-existing <name of package>
But the "install-existing" doesn´t work in my Android 7.0 (Samsung A5 2016).
Tried downloading the APK from the internet and installing but it doesn´t work (says that app is already installed)
Checked if the app is installed, and it only shows in "pm list package -u", so it´s uninstalled for the current (default) user.
Any way to get it back without the install-existing ? (as it doesn´t exist in my android 7.0)
Thanks
anyone ?
anyone pls help, i also got stuck in the same situation, using Note 5 Android 7.0
Run
Code:
adb devices
adb shell "pm list packages -u"
to see what packages are re-installable.

Hi,
I want to reinstall a Motorola firmware app.
I uninstalled the firmware a year ago on my Moto G8+ with adb using the following command:
"pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.motorola.faceunlock"
Now when I want to install the app from the Play Store I can't. I get the following error message:
"You cannot install this app because another user has already installed an incompatible version on this device."
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I already tried a few things I found in other threads and forums but nothing really worked. I'm a single user, however the guest function allows me to find the Moto face unlock App as an installed app. In settings I can't find any option that allows me to "uninstall the app for all users" or to "reinstall" or "restore" it. Factory Reset is not an option for me.
I was thinking about maybe reinstalling the package via adb for the main user again, if that's possible? I only have little knowledge about adb.
Has somebody an idea or command I could try out?
Thanks in advance

The ADB command you used removed the the mentioned system-app ( leaving its data untouched ) only for user 0, that's the current user, what means that the deleted app still remains available for other users of the Android device - it didn't get removed from device's storage space at all. That's basically a good thing because you can easily restore an app if you uninstall it by mistake or need it later.
This brings the system-app back:
Code:
adb devices
adb shell "cmd package install-existing com.motorola.faceunlock"
adb reboot
If your Android is rooted then you can update the system-app in question
Code:
adb devices
adb push <PATH_TO_UPDATE_APK> /data/local/temp
adb shell "pm install -r /data/local/tmp/<UPDATE_APK>"
adb shell "rm /data/local/tmp/<UPDATE_APK>"
adb reboot
Thank you so much, my phone is not rooted. The first code worked and my issue is solved completely. This helped me a lot.
Hi guys,
Just purchased a Moto G8 Power and want to disable som Google preinstalled apps that I won't use.
I've already done this on a Huawei P30 Pro so I know how to do it.
Here are my questions.
If I disable the unwanted apps through ADB will this prevent future OTA updates?
Also, will future OTA updates reactivate the apps that I disabled through ADB?
Thanks!
Assuming you are rooted. Why disable when you can completely remove apps you consider to be bloatware?
The uninstall command to using in ADB is:
Code:
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 PASTE_PACKAGE_NAME_HERE
Use the command below to get a list of the installed package apps on your phone. You want to use the part that starts with: com.some_package_name when using the command above to uninstall an app from your phone using ADB.
Code:
adb shell pm list packages
This version of the same command should help you find the list of packages associated with the facebook app so you can nuke it from orbit.
Code:
adb shell pm list packages facebook
This worked on my 2020 Moto G Power phone and I hope it works for you. And yes I know most of this can be found by doing a search online.
Hello to all. Is there any way to get rid of the app market (com.hetap.market) without rooting? I tried to use adb to remove or disable it without any luck. However I can disable other apps with no problem.
Thanks.
I'm afraid it's impossible without rooting.

Thanks so much, however it does not work either.
Without root, you can get rid of all other Apps, but not the theme store and market.
