deleting apps.
nalcatel (https://www.apps4flip.com/oddsnends/)
The command to uninstall an app is adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.package.name
To find the package name, you could run adb shell pm list packages search-term
To see all packages, run adb shell pm list packages
If you're on WebADB run the command without the words adb shell
If you tell me what app you're trying to uninstall I'll tell you the app package.
Thanks, and I was a able to figure out the pacage names with the command you gave me. Im assuming that I can also delete the browser with this command?
FliphoneBochur Hmm... I think he should be running pm uninstall without a --user 0. Doesn't matter so much, because there is anyways only one user, but its better to not use the -k for 3rd party apps, because it leaves a little of data on the device.
nalcatel yes. it will work.
or you can install a app uninstaller
Biden2020prez Usually, I don't use -k unless I plan on reinstalling the app later and I want to keep the settings, but you're right that you don't necessarily have to run --user 0
nalcatel The command to remove the browser is adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 org.chromium.chrome More details in this thread. To address

This ^ command needs it.
You can't remove any preinstalled with uninstall on this phone (unless you have root access which I haven't figured out how to get (I can't unlock the bootloader)). Remove any user app with uninstall (-k) com.package.name and any preinstalled app with disable-user --user 0 com.package name.
Again, see this thread for more details on this phone.
samtee I haven't found one that works on this phone. You could uninstall apps by accessing hidden menus in settings (I've found some in the square home launcher or in an app manager that I found), but I haven't gotten any dedicated app uninstaller to work on this phone.
