Unable to restore package `Unknown command: install-existing`

[matusf]

Describe the bug I'd like to restore package com.xiaomi.micloud.sdk that I uninstalled before by uad. However, it's never restored. Even though, the uad UI shows, it was successful. I looked through the logs and found out, that the install-existing command fails.

Expected behavior Successful restoration.

You have a solution? Use the correct command for restoration (But I was not able to find out which it is). Some status bar, that explaines why/that some failure happened. Or an indication that the restoration was not successful.

It seems like it first requires adb install <application>, yeah, see: https://gist.github.com/AnatomicJC/e773dd55ae60ab0b2d6dd2351eb977c1#restore-applications. Never tried it myself though.

I have the same bug I think :

Describe the bug

I'd like to restore some packages that I uninstalled before by uad. However, it's never restored any application. Even though, the uad UI shows, it was successful. I looked through the logs and found out, that the install-existing command fails.

I have the same problem with A310F (A3 2016) and A510F (A5 2016) too. I try to restore in usine configuration and I have the same issue....

Expected behavior

Successful restoration.

in a new terminal tab go to platform-tools directory and do the following adb install-existing --full <package name> tried it with 1weather that was preinstalled on Motorolas and it worked

so what they need to add is just the argument --full and it will let people reinstall apps that they deleted
