Theme center not uninstalling

[ghost]

Bug Description The theme center package got removed with a click but com.samsung.android.themecenter is showing errors

Expected behavior It should easily delete the package

You have a solution? Typo error?

UAD log

[Advanced] pm uninstall --user 0 com.samsung.android.themecenter -> Failure [DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR] 2022-08-11 08:28:17 ERROR [src/core/utils.rs:228]  
[Advanced] pm uninstall --user 0 com.samsung.android.themecenter -> Failure [DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR] 2022-08-11 08:28:20 ERROR [src/core/utils.rs:228]
[Advanced] pm uninstall --user 0 com.samsung.android.themestore -> Success

As you can see com.samsung.themestore got deleted easily

reconnect to adb server

adb kill-server
adb start-server

try running commands again. If fails as above:

then run uninstall -k --user 0 (removes but keeps cache) 
if fail: 
pm list packages | cut -f 2 -d ":" | grep com.samsung.android.themecenter
and 
pm list packages | cut -f 2 -d ":" | grep com.samsung.android.theme 

may have to use different greps as exhibited above, to see if a package by that name even exists, or if it spelled differently than you thought.

if you want a better summary on how to use these commands, see:

the package you are trying to remove may be restricted from removal by normal user. If this is the case you may have to disable instead of uninstall

Yup disabling worked instead of uninstalling it completely

thank you very much

I can't even disable it on the SM-A315G. adb prints Package com.samsung.android.themecenter new state: default instead of "new state: disabled"

what OS you on now?

OneUI 4.1, Android 12.

i disabled those apps while i'm on One UI 5 (android 13)

oh... it seems Samsung allowed disabling it

there is no developer for M32 in XDA, no one doing mod on it.

Oh right, because it's too new 🙁

So i'm very glad that there is someone who developed such tool for every devices, so i can optimized my devices by my own eventhough i'm not tech geek my self.

I agree with that

sorry if OOT.

It's ok, don't worry

OneUI 4.1, Android 12.

maybe there is limitation in OneUI 4.1, mate.

oh... it seems Samsung allowed disabling it

thats right, i think it's because the theme apps isn't had impact in system operation. i also disable some samsung features too, such as Routines,McAfee (security feature), and Samsung Keyboard. luckly nothing happened to my phone.

Oh right, because it's too new 🙁

it dont think so, mate. my wife has A32, and i try to look at XDA forum for it, the result is not same as for M32. haha

That's a reasonable hypothesis. I agree.

Nice!

Interesting 🤔. Perhaps the M32 isn't popular in the dev community?
