Hi all
I have installed the planets watch face, so I know how to do that but how do you delete it entirely from your watch?
Anyone? Is there a way to unistall 3rd party watch faces?
It should work like this: You only need to delete the application on the phone, the "companion" wear app gets deleted after a while.
Reality check: I had to do hard reset once when the apps were "stuck" and nothing new got installed and nothing deleted got uninstalled, this happened only once, though...

I'm not sure what you mean mate?
On the phone, open Android Ware and delete the face you want. It then automatically is deleted from the watch. There may be some delay so be patient.

That's the bit I'm stuck on how do you delete the watch face in Android wear?
If I click on watch face I have 3 options, show on watch, settings or hide on watch
Sorry, my error... You have to uninstall them as a usual app (if it's a custom face): forced stop - > delete data - > uninstall. The standard faces cannot be deleted.

Thanks for your time on this, where is force stop etc? I'm new to this
Well I'm a bit paranoid when I uninstall stuff. Go in to the phone setup, choose Application Management (I don't know the right terms as my phone is French). You will see all the applications you have installed. When you click on one, the details will show and you will find top left Forced Stop, center right Delete Data & Cache and top right Uninstall.

I would try wipe and reinstall. I used fix number 4 and my htc apps have been completely removed.
I have to agree, I am also still seeing com.htc.worldclock and com.htc.lockscreen and clicking on them does in fact cause a FC. But I can confirm that those apps are indeed uninstalled, so I don't see it as a huge deal. I don't like using the manage applications menu anyways because it takes so long to compute all the sizes and load all the names, so not a huge deal for me. You think that maybe whiping the dalvik cache might fix this? Just a suggestion, not sure what it would actually do.
I don't know i will try it i just hope it not related to a bigger problem
I tried wiping via recovery and it tells me to flash via adb shell I'm currently running recovery 1.5.2
I have found that even on 1.5 if you removed a system app after it was installed on the phone that it still left a trace on the phone. the way I got around it was just by downloading the ROM unzipping it changing what I wanted to change and then rezip and resign and then flash then there is no trace at all.
im not to sure how to sign a rom is there a good page tutorial for it.\
Thank you

Wiping Dalvik doesn't fix this problem for me. I have the same issue -- "ghost" items in your Manage Applications menu that you know you have already uninstalled.
One temporary fix I've found is if you go into the Manage Apps menu and "Clear Data" in either "com.smithmicro.DM" or "Download Manager", all the ghost apps and pieces go away. But this doesn't last through a reboot -- those all show back up again after every reboot, so it's not a permanent fix.
Any others have any luck with clearing these "ghost apps/pieces" out of the Manage Applications menu?
(I'm currently using ZenEXP MT3G ROM 0.9.6.3)
I haven't looked into it, but I noticed the same problem. The app list must be cached somewhere, which is interesting because it takes a good 10 minutes to load the app list every time i go to manage applications, which is why I rarely use it.
So some apps such as go sms pro, power amp, etc has been clearing data randomly everytime i open it.
so everytime i open the app, it is as if i just downloaded it... everything has been reset to the original settings...
It seems to be spreading upon my apps because it started with 1 and now i have a lot more...
anyone know how to fix this? is this some sort of virus?(im not using any security apps)...

*need root*
using a file explorer (i suggest root manager) go to dbdata/databases/
find the folder that belongs to your program that is resetting itself
i.e (captivate.sgs.tools) if its sgs tools
delete it, and reboot your phone, restart app, do what you want to do (edit the settings or whatever), and then restart app again to see if its fixed.
lemme know how it goes~
hey thanks you so much! everything is working perfectly!
My Samsung Apps icon shows a "1" on the top right corner, which means that one of the apps has an update. It turns out to be the eBook app which I never could successfully install, and it turns out that I can't update it either!
Is there anyway I can remove the notification or delete that app from the list of downloads (in the Samsung app, click on the left menu button > my page > downloads). It has a history of all the Samsung apps that I'd previously downloaded, even the ones I've deleted. I tried clearing the cache of the app and force stopping but it didn't help. Even turning off New application notification doesn't help, neither does wiping my cache and dalvik.
I'm pretty sure there must be a folder somewhere where I can tinker with all these information. Does anyone know?
I am using Titanium Backup to freeze and delete all kind of apps.
The ebooks app doesn't even show up in Titanium, so I can't freeze it.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA App
I do have the same "1"!!
tried to solve it but no luck
I had the same issue as you, and updating to the latest firmware solved the problem. I'm now on DXLC2, and SamsungApps maintains a history of what I have downloaded before, and also shows the ones currently installed. It no longer thinks that I've installed the Ebook app (which hanged halfway) and tells me there's an update.
If you're not rooted, the Kies way *may* work, as another poster mentioned from another thread. I don't know as I'm rooted so I can't verify that. But after you've connected your phone in Kies, on the top right of the screen, you should sign in, then go to MyDownloads. Do let us know if this works, as I'm curious too.
I think Changing samsung account will be final option.

I tried that, but it didn't work. Annoying, I know. Someone mentioned wiping the SD card, which I haven't done yet, and no longer need to since upgrading of firmware helped.
BTW, I posted in the wrong thread (Which is why "I wrote I had the same issue as you"); there was someone else who started another thread about this issue after me, and I'd meant to reply to that one!

Thanks for the suggestion, but it doesn't work either. The issue here is a Samsung app that shows as having been downloaded, when it hasn't (e.g. stopping the installation before it finishes). So it doesn't even show in my app drawer. Anyway, I suppose the issue has been fixed, though I can only guess at how to clear the history of installed apps which still shows up.
I had same problem...change the samsung account helps me, hope it helps you to
I have rooted and installed Null, with Nova launcher however i much prefer the touchwiz interface because the watch face i like is full screen.
Anyway, I have google voice search installed and would like to add the app to the favourites list. Is this possible as it doesnt show on on the gear manager on my s3
Thanks

i don't know which watch face are you using, i never had problem with watch faces being full screen.. but if you really like touchwiz (yuck!) best you could probably do is to remake it all using desktop visualizer plugin. that's like 15 minutes top i think.

Its just that there is a small border going all around the clock face, it doesnt go right to the edges.
Im not really clued up on coding or designing, so unless there is a setting to make this happen I'd be pretty clueless
I notice all apps that installed with null show on my gear manager and can be set as a favourite. Anyway I can do this for apps installed myself, like the google search app?

Sorry I don't understand... If I wipe my gear that will remove the google search app? How can I then add it as a favourite?

System apps stay on device and don't get wiped (I think you can use something like titanium backup to convert app to a system app or move the apk to /system/app). Then once you wipe your device and reconnect to gear manager, gear manager will add it to list of installed apps. Just click the plus sign to add to favourites

Thanks, I don't feel confident enough to start messing with system apps just yet.
Funny enough, When I installed google search it installed two widgets, google now and google search bar. They appear in gear manager and can be added to the favourites screen. How's this possible.

Right, plucked up the courage to try this and it worked - google remained installed.
Problem is, it is the widgets that show up in the gear manager, not the app. Any ideas?
If anyone has a solution to this problem please please help me.
It's the one thing I want to make this device perfect for my needs. I just cant seem to get the google voice search icon on my favourites.
I've moved the google search app to a ssytem app and it just gives the options in gear manager for the widgets not the app icons.

agree completely. and the bugs are so inconsistent..so you cant really make sense of whats going on to remedy to it.

Did you change the "Background power consumption management" setting of AccuBattery to "High background power usage" ?

well it only applies if you actually removed or disabled the V-Appstore. Otherwise no idea what could be causing this problem.
If you debloated via ADB AppControl (https://adbappcontrol.com/en/) then it should be as easy as going into the "disabled" or "removed" tab and then restoring the app.
The alternative solution would be to run the reverse debloat script (credit to @raimondomartire for original script.
I edited it so it only restores the V-Appstore)

No change, accubattery is still set to high battery use, it's locked in the recent apps drawer and Autostart etc. Enabled.
But Autostart never worked for it. On reboot I always have to start it manually and never close the window in the recent apps otherwise I know Vivo kills it. It's really a pain seeing how unreliable those settings are. And I don't ever use power saving mode or dark mode....
Seeing it was killed several times according to the message is even more strange

What about the vivo.pem thingy? Did you remove it?
Yes of course. All other apps I added to Autostart and high battery use seem to be fine, at least for notifications. Because muted group chats on Line and Signal clearly need to download if not actually open before. So they seem to be somehow affected too. Note that this doesn't apply to non muted individual chats or non muted group chats.
I read somewhere that the bug with dark mode is triggered by muted group chats. Maybe this has system wide implications? That's what I hate here, bugs are kinda always depending on super strange combinations which don't seem to make sense in first place (more like some vivo engineer thought he can save some battery here or there without noticing to breaking a lot of functions. Clearly missing quality control between Teams or individuals working on the software)...
And again as long as an app is open in recent Apps app drawer its not affected.
Could it be that those users that aren't affected are using a third party app drawer for recent apps? If you do that than maybe the results will be way different (same as not having muted group chats).

Settings, apps& permissions --> apps manager --> there is no app with package in Name...
And accubattery got killed again... See zero battery usage and I had charged it to 100%... I really wonder if anyone gets equal hours here to actual phone use...
Accubattery is secured with the lock symbol yet if I swipe it up it gets killed. Adguard as a service works perfectly however. Accubattery cannot seem to get running as plain service however while storing usage data. The lockdown only changes that if you click on the X at the bottom the locked apps aren't killed.
Hmm, removing it from Autostart and reading it seems to have helped on reboots. But something seriously is wrong with this system if so often (notifications too) adding and removing an app from the lists changes something.

There is definitely a app called package installed installer, it's on every android device. Unless you've debloated it
Yes there is but I cannot open it. I can delete it's data/cache however which doesn't change anything.
It's only a service not an app itself it seems to me. And as it's a service only it cannot be managed through apps and permissions. It can be found by searching for it from settings search field
