Probably an app on your sdcard or a system app.
Simplest way is to navigate to the store and grab the id from the URL - i.e. Chrome Beta URL is
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chrome.beta
app packagename is com.chrome.beta

The only thing you have to do, is putting the .apk to /system/app.
From then on, they can't be uninstalled.
The error could occur for example because system wasn't mounted as rw.
When i only transfer the apk then the App is not seen in the drawer
Is there a other Folder where the informations are saved from the app??

That means with App Installer i can move the apps to the system?? Like the SGS Tool?
Well if you remove samsung player and install android's original you'll have only this player so that's it ...
I just use "adb install application.apk" and it works fine for me...

Hi,
Since installing the Box app for the free 50GB I found that it opens APK files by default, and I have to a file explorer to manually find them and install.
It doesn't seem like Box has any defaults set, but it still opens files it has nothing to do with.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Not to dredge up this older thread, but this is happening to me now. Any tips?
I figured out the UID issue.
You must have a file browser capable of root permissions or know how to use the terminal
Go to /data/system and look for uiderrors.txt
open it and take note of all the files listed in there.
Go into /data/data/ and remove those folders.
Reinstall the apps that were in conflict and everything should be good
The same fix applies for error -24 from the play store when installing apps. The only difference is that the uiderrors.txt will not have the offending files listed. You will need to know the application package name i.e. com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer

I believe it is being caused by HTC backup restoring app data. You should be able to remove the folder with root explorer as that's what I used.

You can easily remove that folder when ur using TWRP recovery. In advanced menu is a file explorer. After deleting the folder you can install e.g. quadrant again via playstore
I'm looking for a way to replace the system apps with their AOSP counter part.
E.g. dialer, email, contacts etc.
Does someone know if it's possible for all apps or are their any problems to be expected?
And second question, is there probably a flash able zip for this?
I'd be curious to know as well. Coming from a Nexus device I hate Sony's attempts to "improve" the basic apps like dialer and messaging. They all look like they were designed in 1998.
That should be possible....

I think at the moment there is no available zip. You need CWM for your idea - do you have your phone rooted ?
If so there should be a possiblity to create such a flashable zip , that erase the not needed apps and install the new apps...
If your phone is not rooted maybe a batch file could do the trick via ADB for you - in a first step it should block the not wanted apps and in a second step it should install the new apps.
So you need the Names of the packages / apps that should be erased and before that, you should find the AOSP-Apps that run on the Z3C.

Yes it's rooted.
I would be happy too, to replace the dialer & contact apps with AOSP ones.
Regarding messaging, i'm using this one : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=fr.slvn.mms
Collecting of required information
Hi folx,
in this post i try to get all required information to replace the not wanted SONY stuff by the desired stuff mostly AOSP.
Your phone should be rooted and CWM should be installed.
Then we have to build a fitting flashable zip file.
But to succeed we fist need to test if the wanted apps will work on our phone. (i will test for example: Dialer from CM11)
If these Apps work, then we should have a deeper look on the creating of such a flashable.zip file. I have found a lot of howtos in the web. But to be sure we should backup those SONY-Apps
Here are 2 links i would use:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721680 english here at XDA
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2764533 this can also be useful
The updater - script within this zip-file could be adjusted to our needs. Deleting the not wanted Sony.apps from /system /app and replace them with the wanted Apps. If i find the time i could provide such a file - but i can't test it.
The simple Trick:
But you could do it more simple - you just need a root explorer (i prefer ES File Explorer). Go to the above mentioned folder /system/app or system/private. There you should find the not wanted apps. Just copy them in a backup folder on your sdcard, delete the sony apk in the system - partition, copy your desired apk in the folder, where you have deleted the Sony-apk, give the right permissions and then reboot.
If the new app fails - just delete it in the same manner as described above and copy the backupped app in the corresponding folder and check the permissions again. - reboot.
I would really appreciate posting your results and if there are any further questions.... do not hesitate - we are all here to learn and get our phone better
Cheers

I probably have time to test this on the weekend.
I'll let you know how it goes.
I copied over Contacts, Contacts Prvovider and the Dialer apks.
However I couldn't get them to work.
Neither the Contacts nor the Dialer app showed up in the app drawer.
Email didn't work either.
Deskclock works fine. I'd love dialler to work...
Hey folks.
First time with the HTC One M7.
HTCDev-unlocked, TWRP installed and Rooted, HBOOT 1.61, and I've installed AICP 05/11/2017
I have now noticed a folder on the internal storage called 'Dianxin' - this is the tree:
\Internal shared storage\dianxin\notify\.cache\846b\network
Inside are two files:
- cd1406cc85bfbea412b36cd44cc43eda.0
- journal
Before I start loading contacts and other personal info, can someone tell me what this is and if I can get rid of it?
Thanks,
Stuart.
Most probably from one of your installed app.
ES file explorer maybe ?
https://www.google.ge/amp/s/forum.x...explorer-malware-dianxin-folder-t3348545/amp/
Possible malware. DO NOT LOAD ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION IN YOUR PHONE, SCAN YOUR PHONE WITH ANTI-VIRUS FOR VIRUSES.
Hey folks, thanks for the replies.
ES File Explorer has not been installed. The ROM (AICP) is LineageOS-based, which in tun was based on CM.
All of the apps I have installed are what I usually use, and have not previously given me this folder.
The only new software is the ROM itself.
Is it possible to lock the folder and contents? Something only I can change rather than any apps?
If you read link given by @JIMSHERIKO above, not only ES gives you this, also some other apps especially from Cheetah Mobile & Chinese based app developers.
If you delete, rename the folder, a new one will be re created upon reboot. The best is uninstall app that related to this if you're concern with security. Sometimes you'll see "baidu" folder, same case as "dianxin"
I have a One S with the same apps installed. There is no Baidu or Dianxin folder on it.
The only different software is the ROM.
Any idea what the Dianxin folder actually exists for?
Does any one know?
And does anyone know how I could find out what app created the folder? Apart from uninstalling all the apps then reinstalling one-by-one...

I suggest switching over to the Maximus HD Eye Rom!!!
It could be some Chinese app, I don't personally know.
You could get a Root uninstaller and see what's unusual in the system apps. But it could also be a user app.
Just change Roms if you are in doubt.
Well, an update - I disabled the AICP Stats collection option in AICP Extras and then deleted the folder and rebooted.
So far, no reappearance of the folder.
