Some apps refuse to be removed #15

Tried de-bloating various apps. Some worked, but some remain installed, and I can still activate or deactivate through settings. Couldn't find any information about a similar situation.

I believe it's related to the fact the those apps were installed on the /oem/ folder. It was only three apps. The other ones worked flawlessly. I willing to help to find out why this happened.

I don't see any reason to fail removing an app from /system/priv-app. May be a local update (which you can easily uninstall by normal methods)?

This is how it looks like in the system settings. I tried to debloat it, after it rebooted it was just simply back again and the debloat app also just said "Removing at reboot" again.

@KekOnTheWorld Looks like the module itself is not loading (probably, a Magisk issue). Is any other app removed?

lbirkert commented 2 years ago

I removed YouTube and it worked fine.

lbirkert commented 2 years ago

Should I try removing the module and reinstalling the app again?

sunilpaulmathew commented 2 years ago

No idea. I'm getting out of ideas. I do not see any reason preventing the removal of your app stored in "/system/priv-app".

Okay thanks anyways. This might be an issue with the way these partitions are mounted or something.
