Deleting Android Apps

I downloaded a couple of android apps, then deleted them, but after a restart they returned, as if nothing happened. How can I make sure that the app is really deleted and no leftovers remain in my phone? Thank you in advance.

Hello @vak
Which version of software you have installed.
This problem happens to you.

  • Deleted sys.android.bar accidentally while side-loading android apps

    I deleted sys.android.bar accidentally while side-loading android apps. How can I get it back?
    Is there a way to get the bar file and reload it? I did try the older version that is floating around and it does not work.
    I looked at the directions for reloading the OS  here (http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/KB33480), but it seems your devie has to be non-functioning for that to work, and mine does load the OS. It is just android apps that do not work.
    Also I own a MAC so in trying the KB article above I tried to use windows in a VM but it did not detect the device until it was completely booted.

    After almost 2 days of ICS, here's another update:
    CONS:
    No notification on lockscreen. The heck important is that.
    Calendar widget not even showing the next event.
    Lag on Facebook, or even other social media apps while typing something.
    SYSTEM UI IS NOT RESPONDING. I almost gone in that moment, where I did a quick Settings Reset after reboot. This is a major con, Sony.
    Swiping up and down with many items is now unresponsive, sometimes stopping quickly at a certain point.
    PROS:
    Bloatwares can now be disabled, or even uninstalled in Apps Settings. I tried to remove What's App, appXtra, and UEFA.com bloatwares, and now it's gone. Let's Golf HD can now be disabled.

  • DPS android app for small screens, works, but poorly...

    There is a way to get the DPS android app compatable with 1400 devices, including mobile phones.
    In theory if you here reading this its because you have an android app made by the DPS app builder live in the play store and...
    A: found out that the android app is only available on large/xlarge screens
    B: are getting yelled at by your employer who bought the Adobe DPS subscription and claims this should work on his phone "because I looked at the Adobe site and it says android, my phone is an android, read their site and make it work"
    C: found this because you were smart enough to read through the forums before suggesting this as a publishing solution to your employer and want to know if it really works on android phones, in whcih case, you may want to make it easy on yourself and just say "no, it does not" and then waid for Adobe to officially support small/normal screens perhaps head over to this post and bring some attention to it so we can collectivly improve this already awesome tool: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1097433
    however, before you attempt this please keep in mind the following:
    1- it does not work well, if at all, on certain devices. specifically the small phone devices with the slower processors. So what typically happens is that you need to delete the data for the app and wait nearly 10 min for the "checking for updates" to process and grab new edditions. Depending on your serivce provider, this can be a nightmare. So, do NOT even attempt this if you have a cap on your data plan, think about how long it would take to download a 100mb folio file on a 3g connection, not to mention the processor which the tablets have and phones do not have.
    Here is some more data:
    --Android 1 from Sprint: really super slow, thats all I gotta say
    --Android 2 from Verizon, again, slow, but works
    --Galaxy Nexus 4.1.1, Verizon 4g connection, works great, (10% of the time) lol. about 90% of the time the Galaxy Nexus needs to be restarted after installing, and will get stuck on the "updating library" screen. the only way to fix this for any of the above phones seems to be to clear all data, uninstall, re install, do not launch, restart phone, and then launch app.
    I am going to test the following soon:
         Samsung Galaxy Note II N7100 (1.6GHz Quad-core)
         (1.5GHz Quad-core)
              LG Optimus G E973
              Xiaomi MI-2
              LG Optimus 4X HD P880
              HTC One X
    (the idea being that perhaps we can go through the list from google in the play store and limit the devices its on, but at least with this solutuon as described below we can get rid of the "not availabe on your device" notice.)
    So before you read on, consider that for your end users. If you find a way to fix this, let me know, I have considered turning off hardware acceleration but have not tested this yet.
    2- if you choose to attempt this make sure you have a good understanding of command line AND you have a new version of the app ready if you want to roll back.
    consider this concept: (you should have these ready)
    app a- made by Adobe DPS app builder, works on only large and x-large android screens, lets say its version 100000 and 2.5.5.000. This is already in your google.play store account as a live app,
    app b- the app you are about to build in this example below, it will in theory work on small, medium, large, and x-large android screens, lets say its version is 110000 and 2.9.9.000 (it will be MADE FROM APP A, you will open it, edit it, and wrap it back up.)
    app c- made by Adobe DPS app builder, works on only large and x-large android screens, lets say its version 200000 and 3.5.5.000 (which would be good to have in case your version b above does not work the way you want)
    notice the VERSION codes. These are important because you can only go UP, you can not "roll back" to a previous version.
    Again, I do not suggest this, but if you are daring and have some development background, feel free to give it a shot.
    (I am not going to be able to support this info, but I can verify 100% that I got mine working, very poorly and slow, but it installs, pulls folios, and loads)
    PC WINDOWS ONLY, I have not tried this on a MAC.
    get this:
      http://www.7-zip.org/
    install it
    get this:
      http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/
    read all about it.
    go here:
      http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/downloads/list
    get:
              apktool1.4.3.tar.bz2
    and
              apktool-install-windows-r04-brut1.tar.bz2
    put them all in 1 folder, extract both items, all the way
    the grab the
              android-viewer.apk
    that Adobe DPS made, or whatever yours is named...
    and the
              release.keystore
    you made and put them in the same "stuff" folder. there should be 20 items total in here now.
    get this:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-6u30-download-1377139.html
              jdk-6u30-windows-x64.exe
    do NOT use any other version, do NOT use version 7, use version 6.
    install it all. then find it. should be here- (C://program files/Java/)
    I recomend grabbing it all and putting it in your ROOT like this:
    C://Java/jdk1.6.0_30/bin
    then, put everything from the "stuff" folder into C://Java/jdk1.6.0_30/bin
    yep, all of it.
    now we are ready to get funky...
    run cmd line.
    open start menu, type
    cmd
    into the search bar, hit enter
    -------- run command line, get to proper directory
    cd ..
    cd ..
    cd Java/jdk1.6.0_30/bin
    (or wherever your 'stuff' is)
    --------open up
    apktool d android-viewer.apk android-viewer
    (this will make a folder called 'android-viewer' and you will be able to go into that folder and find the XML files in there)
    --------edit XML
    in file: /android-viewer/AndroidManifest.xml
    open up in dreamweaver and change this stuff:
    android:versionCode="_ENTER_NEW_NUMBER_" android:versionName="_ENTER_NEW_NUMBER_"
    <supports-screens android:smallScreens="true" android:normalScreens="true" android:largeScreens="true" android:xlargeScreens="true" />
    in file: /android-viewer/assets/META-INF/AIR/application.xml
    open up in dreamweaver and change this stuff:
              <versionNumber>_MATCH_ABOVE_</versionNumber>
              <versionLabel>_MATCH_ABOVE_</versionLabel>
    <supports-screens android:smallScreens='true' android:normalScreens='true' android:largeScreens='true' android:xlargeScreens='true'/>
    --------package it back up
    apktool b android-viewer android-viewer-new.apk
    (this will repackage the folder into a new APK, note the name -new.apk added to the end)
    --------Sign
    jarsigner -keystore release.keystore -signedjar android-viewer-signed.apk android-viewer-new.apk YOUR_ALIAS
    (now you need to sign the -new apk and recreate it as signed)
    --------Verify
    jarsigner -verify -verbose -certs android-viewer-signed.apk
    (if the last line does not say 'successfully verified' and there is an error, make sure you are using version 6 of JDK and not 7)
    --------Update APK in play store
    Visit this page
    http://developer.android.com/distribute/googleplay/about/distribution.html#instant
    read the line that says "Instant publishing, instant updates"
    while you do, understand you are being lied to, it takes anywhere from 30 min to 4 hours for your update to be "instant".
    take the new "android-viewer-signed.apk"
    rename it, upload it, activate it, de activate the old one.
    important: beofe you click save, switch over to the "product details" tab and update your version notes.
    head over to your app page in the play store.
    sit there and click refresh every 10 min or take a nap and come back in a few hours.
    when you finally see the version number has updated, go to the browser on your phone
    find your app in the browser, refresh the page, make sure its got the new version number on it.
    install it on your small screen device, cross your fingers, and hope you do not get a message that says "not signed properly"
    if you do, feel free to start googling the stuff above to see where you went wrong.
    If it does work, go to your boss and have him download it and run it and say "see, there ya go, its on your phone now" and when he says it does not work hand him a minni screw driver and a 1.6GHz Quad-core from the Galaxy Note II and tell him to simply upgrade the procssor in his phone because its too slow. lol.
    -good luck and enjoi

    Hi,
    This is very interesting.  I'm not an expert but i could do almost all the steps, but i can not do the sign step.  i dont know where my release.keystore is.  i created a .key.p12 file, is it?
    I'm trying to do this for a Galaxy SIII
    Thank you

  • How do I find and delete an app?

    I downloaded an app from Amazon that I now wish to delete to avoid all their ads that now essentially pop up

    HI lhpeterson,
    Thank you for your question, I understand that you would like to know how to delete an app that you downloaded. The apps are managed by the firefox marketplace.However you can check about:apps-manager or the marketplace website when signed in. The apps are accessible also from an android device in the Settings > Tools menu if this is where you installed them.

  • Working android apps now crash after Mountain Lion upgrade

    I've developed two air for android apps that are on the market using Adobe Air/ Flash Builder..
    I just purchased a new mac laptop with Mountain Lion which is a big upgrade over my old machine.
    The problem is, when I loaded my old project folders into Flash Builder 4.6 on my new machine, they compile fine with no errors.
    When I hit run, it begins to export the app to the Android device like normal, it then tuns the device's screen black as if the app is starting... then crashes.
    If I hit debug, it starts the connection countdown and never connects to the debugger. Then it turns black and crashes just as before.
    It doesn't give me any errors at all. I can't run it in the simulator because it has extensions that break it.
    Just as a test, I started a new project and ran that on my phone, and it worked perfectly. So it's only the old projects that won't work..
    What's crazy is the same exact project folder, if i put it on a USB drive, put it on my old copmuter, or my friends Macbook with Lion, export it to android to the same Android device...it works!...
    I've already tried the following:
    - Re-installed flashbuilder 4.6, installed 4.7 and test with that
    - Downloaded the projects off of svn, and directly from an external hardrive to see if it was svn error
    - Deleted all hidden filed within the project folders that may have had machine specific information in them
    -  Started a new project under the same name, manually recreated all the folders and pasted each individual file into them
    - Tested it on multiple devices to see if it was just my phone
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm at a total loss, because the projects work on my old computer with Snow Leopard, my friend's computer with Lion, but won't work on mine at all!

  • TS1702 How do you permanently delete purchased apps from itunes?

    How do I permanently delete purchased apps from itunes on my iphone?

    I have spent a good part of my evening trying to figure this out then finally found this page which confirms what I was thinking... It doesn't appear possible! ARHHHH!!! There are loads of posts saying how you can do this, when what they appear to be describing is how to remove the apps from their iphone/ipad and not actually from the list of every app you have ever installed which appears when you go into the "Apps Store" > Updates > Not on this iPhone.
    It would be really nice to be able to remove programs from this list as I am sure I am not the only person who over the years have installed some apps which where not very good and I don't want to be reminded of them or to ever see them again quite frankly.
    I can do this very easily from my Android phone in Google Play which is Google's version of the App Store.
    I think things like this remind me why I prefer the ease of use of my Android phone... Ho hum! Maybe one day some geeks at Apple will realise that this would actually be a really useful thing to be able to do and enable it.

  • Growlr Android App Crashing

    I have been having problems with the Growlr app on my Z30. It started when I was using AT&T 10.2.1 upgrade on my Z10.  I noticed it was getting sort of sluggish, so I deleted it and reinstalled it using Snap, but it wouldn't recognize my email or password, and it would crash when I tried to create a new profile.  When I tap "Create New Profile" it would say "Growlr has experienced an error. Please try again later" but it would let me continue making the profile until I either try to add a picture or try to save the profile when it says "Unfortunately Growlr has stopped" and it closes. I tried to use Growlr support, but they weren't much help after I told them I was using the app on a BlackBerry.  I've tried reinstalling after a security wipe.  I went to 10.3.1 using an autoloader on both my old Z10 and my new Z30 and I get the same errors and crashes.  I've even used an apk of an older version with no luck.  Is there anything else I could try?  All my other Android apps work with no trouble. The fact that it hasn't worked on two different BB10 OS versions on two different phones after wipes and autoloaders leads me to think it's probably just a bad app now, but it can't hurt to try.  Thanks in advance for any help!

    Yes I think it's something fixed in the new version. Tips online for 10.3.1.1154 say to delete Google Maps before upgrading to 1154 then do 2 more "restarts" after installing 1154, plus wait 10-15 minutes after the restart before accessing any Android apps. Maybe all voodoo but that's how it worked for me. And it's working very good now. Quick startup. Plus the Link restore process saved all my info.

    I upgraded from iPhone 3GS to iPhone 6.  Everything converted fine.  Yesterday I deleted an app in error.  When I downloaded the software it from iTunes ( did this many times on the old 3GS), my account is no longer recognized by the app's host servers (Playtika), even though it did after the initial conversion.  Can I go back and re-sync just one app from my old phone?

  • How to delete an App I did not install on my machine

    My son's school requires them to use MacBookPro's (three cheers).   His laptop broke so I restored his Time Machine backup to an external drive which is attached to my desktop system.  That way he could keep up with his work until the repairs were complete.  Somehow, during the restore process,  the App Store decided that the apps that he and his school used were now legitimately installed on my system. They show up whenever updates are available.   My son gave me his username and password so I can at least do the updates (I tried deleting the apps from my machine and - as many threads have repeated - the App Store keeps the history so I get notified regardless).  The apps he used were all free ones so other than being an annoyance, there is no serious problem.  The difficulty comes in with apps which the school had licensed for and installed for every student.   That password is a tightly guarded secret which the school will not give out no matter what (nor should they).   I can not expect them to come to my house (several hundred miles away) and log in to the App Store on my machine to do the updates.   I've notified the school of what has happened so when they get their usage logs from the vendor they do not think I intentionally made pirated copies.
    Does anyone have any idea how to get rid of these apps (which I do not use and am not licensed for) ?  This is a fundamentally different question that the old war horse of how to remove something from the App Store purchase history.   As a result of trying to provide a stopgap for my son, I have the appearance of having expensive, unlicensed software on my machine.  Because I do some work for the US government, the auditors periodically have me proove that everything on my machine is fully licensed and legal.   I've explained what happened to them and while they "understand", they say they have zero flexibility to allow me to be out of compliance.   Since the "violation" is associated with me individually, even purchasing a brand new computer will not solve the problem.
    Help !!!!

    Thank you.   I had already done the things you suggested but did not know that my son had made a clone of his drive elsewhere on my machine (he just wanted to be sure that I didn't accidentally delete his "stuff").   Your response got me to search everything and not assume that everything was in the applications folder.   Once I found his clone, I deleted it and the problems all went away.

  • Why can't I see my android app on google play on phone?

    I've built a native android app which works fine on a tablet, but I can't see it on a phone App Store, any idea why?

    After you test the .apk file, log in to the Google Play Developer Console (https://play.google.com/apps/publish/). From there, you can either unpublish the previous app and add the new app, or you can submit a new version (upload a new .apk binary) of the existing app. If you're updating the existing app, you might need to go back into Web App Builder and override the version number. Instructions for doing this are in the link Neil provided.

  • How do you delete an app from your iPhone? Deleting it from iTunes is not working.

    Deleting the app from iTunes when my iPhone is hooked up the my MacBook isn't working. How do I get rid of apps I don't like?

    On the springboard, locate the app you want to delete. For this example, I’ll use WeatherBug.
    Tap and hold down the icon of the application you want to delete. After a few seconds your screen will start to “wiggle” and an X will appear next to each of the apps you’ve installed via the App Store.
    Tap the X next to the icon of the app you want to remove. When prompted, selectDelete.
    And now it’s gone.
    If the application is listed in your iTunes Applications as well, you’ll want to remove it from there – or else it will re-install the next time you sync. Alternately you can keep the app in your iTunes Applications, and set iTunes not to sync all applications, just the ones you want to keep. See the Applications tab of your device the next time it’s connected in iTunes for syncing options.
