Include non-system apps #362

UAD not listing all packages, no matter the filters.

=== Summary of number of packages

=== Exported selection Created with filters set to <All, All packages, All lists>.
Whatever the filters, I never got over 200 entries, nor did I ever found "com.amazon.mp3" (my test search string).

=== Which ones are missing ? Comparing the 200 and the 214 list gives me exactly the 14 list which is:

com.amazon.mp3 com.google.android.apps.chromecast.app com.google.android.apps.docs.editors.docs com.google.android.apps.docs.editors.sheets com.google.android.apps.docs.editors.slides com.google.android.apps.fitness com.google.android.apps.magazines com.google.android.apps.nbu.files com.google.android.apps.podcasts com.google.android.calculator com.microsoft.bing.wallpapers com.tblenovo.soundrecorder com.topjohnwu.magisk io.github.muntashirakon.AppManager

=== Specs Lenovo M10 tablet android 10 freshly installed with Lenovo's stock ROM UAD v0.5.1 ADB Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.41 (Version 33.0.3-8952118)

=== UAD log === (there's nothing more) 2022-08-26 19:08:39 DEBUG [src\core\update.rs:178] Checking for UAD update 2022-08-26 19:08:39 WARN [src\gui\mod.rs:102] Trying to download remote UAD list 2022-08-26 19:08:40 INFO [src\gui\mod.rs:457] ----------------------------------------------------------------- 2022-08-26 19:08:40 INFO [src\gui\mod.rs:458] ANDROID_SDK: 29 | PHONE: Lenovo Lenovo TB-X306F 2022-08-26 19:08:41 WARN [src\gui\views\list.rs:142] No custom selection imported: The system cannot find the file specified.

Thank you.

That's because those are not system apps. You can directly uninstall them in the settings of your phone. :slightly_smiling_face:

UAD will support them in the future. See #365

"You can directly uninstall them in the settings of your phone." So can I uninstall/disable ANY apps with "App Manager".

So WHY use UAD ?? My 2 reasons:

  1. I can do it from my Windows PC.
  2. It is quick; I can select each apps I want to uninstall/disable, and GO.

Currently only processing "system" apps??? Are ALL uad_lists.json's 2223 entries "system" packages ??? 11 of my 14 "non system" packages are in the uad_lists.json file !!!

Please do not waste time with BS answers. You're not on FB but on Github (less simple users) Thank you for acknowledging the issue. Regards.

There is no need to be aggressive. May I also kindly remind you that I develop this software in my free time?

That's not a BS answer. Of course, it would be quicker if you could uninstall them from UAD but userland apps were not a priority precisely because you can uninstall them without ADB or root (unlike system apps).

Are ALL uad_lists.json's 2223 entries "system" packages ???

All those packages have been seen installed as system apps. However, on some phones, some of them have been installed as user apps by the OEM (which is a good thing).

"Aggressive" ?! You are confusing firmness with aggresivity. (This is probably a generational thing, I don`t sugarcoat everything I say). I'm well aware of your taking care of this software on your limited free time... so why waste it on unecessary explainations/justifications (which actually lead nowhere) ?

My only purpose here was to provide you with clear & detailed information about what I found. Nothing more. No requests. If more information is required to support my original "issue description", by all means notify me. Otherwise thank you for sharing UAD, Have a good day, Claude.

It was probably the typography (a lot of ??? !!!)

Fair enough. I get you point. See my initial reply more as an acknowledgement of your issue. I didn't want to close the issue without a reply. It would be a bit rude.

Ok ok I stop replying! I'm wasting time haha!

Have a nice day too
