Removing/Deleting Outlook App - Moto X4 Questions & Answers

Trying to clear space on internal memory by deleting some apps. Having great difficulty in removing/deleting the Outlook app.
Has anyone remove/deleted this app - if so what's the secret?
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Is the app set as a Device Administrator? Some servers require that in their policy and it will prevent the app from being uninstalled. Go into the settings app and search for 'device admin apps' and see if it shows up under there. If it does, unselect it and then try uninstalling again.

Does it just silently fail or is there some output?
Also, does the app still run? I dimly remember once I had an app uninstall but the icon was still stuck in the launcher somehow.

[Q] "Installation of download apks is not supported"

That's the message I get when trying to install app fm the amazon store.
Change download directory perhaps? I can't find the setting for that . . ..
TIA
Did you check your settings for the one that allows non-Marketplace apps to install?

Yes, you have to enable non-marketplace apps in the settings or else it wont allow any apps other than those downloaded directly from the android app store. Its under Settings - Applications - Unknown sources.
Trying unchecking it and then checking it again. That worked for me when i was on auto-nootered stock.
I was able to get past this message by checking and unchecking Allow Non-Market Apps and rebooting, but I also created a system/app directory on the sd card and put my apks in there, this may or may not be necessary as I am still experimenting. I also made sure USB Debugging, Allow Mock Locations and Auto Mount were checked under the Development panel in NookColor Tools.

Where exactly do you find Settings - Applications - Unknown sources on an autonooted 3.0 Nook Color? If I go into Settings from the stock launcher, there is no tab for Applications. If I go into NookColor Tools I see two panels for Settings - one is for GSM which is all greyed out and one just reproduces the stock settings page. There is also a Manage Applications panel, which just shows installed applications.
update; no love
Thanks for the suggestions, but nothing's worked.
I have checked "Allow Non-Market Apps" under NookColor Tools (it was always checked). Interestingly, I am basically not able to uncheck this setting. I can uncheck it, but when I navigate away (or reboot) and then return to NookColor Tools, the box is checked (even though I unchecked it before).
I also made an /sdcard/system/app directory and confirmed that "USB debugging" and "Allow mock locations" are checked under settings>development.
No luck. When I try to install apps from the amazon store etc., I get the same error message: "Install blocked. Installation of download apks is not supported."
Thanks.

Try unchecking... then checking it again... without navigating away... then reboot (not really necessary)... and try it again.
Could it be that because it's a NC and the Apk is from Amazon?
If i were them, I'd make sure that my major comp didn't get the same love everyone else might get. i could be waaaaay off base tho.
I unchecked, and then immediately rechecked, without exiting NookColor Tools. I then rebooted, since the first time I did this without rebooting, I was still unable to install anything. I also found that I didn't need the dummy system folder on my sd card.

Here's my question to you. Do you have another Android device? If so try instaling it on that, if it doesn't work then you know it's the Apk file. And if it does then it might just be a compatible issue between Amazon and B&N.
Until you try everything, rule nothing out.
Swordsaint, I was expanding on my previous post for LanceNem's benefit.

Need ur help to do these things

Brothers,
Need ur help to enable power save for wifi ( hence running wifi make battery drain), also how i can stop automatic update service, each time i uninstall the new market its reinstalled again !! I hate it its so bad, also it take a lot of space of device memory.
with thx
Yea, it automatically updates the market and other google apps. WE can stop app form automatically updating by going to My apps and then choose a app and then deselecting the option Allow Automatic Updates --it can be done while installin apps too-- in description or similar. You can try it for market too. But, I don't think we can stop google from updating its system app.

The option allow automatic upgrading is available while installing an app from market.
Go to My Apps> Select a app> Uncheck Allow automatic updates.
I have attached images files if you want to see. Sorry for the zip file didn't have time to post image here.
It is good if you don't want other app to update automatically. Also, I searched for market but it is not there, think the OS manages system apps upgrade. You can search for if you want --may be you will find it.
All the best
Market app will install the update automaticly, no matter how many times you downgrade this app.
Maybe there is way to that, but i don't know how.
For other app, you can open the market app, then press menu button and select My Apps. Choose any apps that you don't want to automatic update, then uncheck the Allow Automatic Updating option.
Hope it help you out.

[Help] Clear the "New system update available" Notification

Hi,
I have a notification saying "10.1.A.1.434 New system update available". How to remove this from my notification area?
Its there for some days now. I tried tapping on it to open the system update app, clear, swipe it left & right, tried connecting to PC suite, tried rebooting. And the notification still remains. Please advise. My phone have a unlocked bootloader and is rooted
How about clicking on the "clear" button? or swiping that notification to the left/right?

Android application package file (APK) is the file format used to distribute and install application software and middleware onto Google's Android operating system.
Removing it will make the notification update disappear and the software update below about phone will be gone as well.
1) Go download Titanium Backup
2) Go into the app, scroll down till you find "UpdateCenter.apk"
3) Backup the app, and then remove it.
4) Reboot your phone.

Thanks, that did the trick... Does this affect my other apps from play store. Like, Wont they update themselves (manually/automatically)?
Actually, you can remove it by opening the notification/status bar ( slide from top to bottom ), then open app info and force stop.
The notification will not appear again until the next reboot. You just have to do it once after every reboot.

thats the playstore, i dont think they are related.
For anyone who is interested, the service to stop, freeze, or remove is Google Services Framework.
I just did it - go to Settings / Apps / All and scroll down to Update Center. Remove the Show notifications tick and confirm. That's it!
Just freeze 'System update' from titanium backup (or similar apps).
This is the only %100 solution.
Is it safe to uninstall Software update app, guys? I have only basic Titanium Backup on my rooted Z, so there is no freeze option for me. I've removed some of Sony bloatwear (What's New etc.), and lately there is notification about available updates after every reboot. Force stop solves the issue temporarily, and Show_notification box is uncheckable. In my view, this app shouldn't have any major purpose left, since OTA updates are archived for us... Cheers.

[Solved] Play services update too big?

Hello
My only phone, the N1 is driven by ev_passion_nightly-2014.08.17. Thanks to Mounts2SD I thought storage capacity limits shouldn't bother me in future: Internal memory says 182 MB free, SD card 2.6 GB free (it's a 4 GB card).
This week Gmail updated to 5.0 - with this update comes the need to update google play services (6.1.88 (1557022-034)). I wasn't able to update (tried play store and .apk) the services due to "Not enough memory available"-Error.
Is anybody experiencing the same?
Regards

Yes, I just tried to update and it also failed due to "insufficient storage available". I did a backup of the old version and unistalled it. After that reinstalling from the Play Store worked fine.
I had a similiar issue with Dropbox last week though and just uninstalling it wasn't enough. I still got "ISA" error when trying to install from store again but installing the apk (copied from another device) went well.
I was just able to uninstall the updates of play services (now I'm on 4.0.34) a full uninstall doesn't seem to be possible that easy. Unfortunately the "ISA" error remains

No Superuser access? Which ROM?

So if you have Superuser you can use Link2SD to freeze/uninstall any app.
Just make sure that you cancel the file system selection dialog (ext2/ext3/ext4/...) because you are already using Mounts2SD. Even without the linking feature it's a great app manager.
Grant Superuser to Link2SD so you can manage all apps. Search for Google Play services in the list, then press and hold it, choose "Uninstall".
Installing it from Play Store should work again.
If not, download it from APKMirror. I checked the MD5 so it's legit.
Thanks, uninstalling worked now. Installation however still isn't working. APK still complains about storage, and Play Store can't be accessed - it stops at an account selection popup.

Are you sure that Mounts2SD is working correct? What does "Storage Threshold" say? Which content types are "green"?
Try to "Clear all app caches" with Link2SD and set "Install location" to "Automatic" in the settings.
Mounts2SD should work correctly (see attachments). I've cleared the app cache and set location to automatic. "ISA"-Error is still present.
Yes, Mounts2SD seems to be fine. It's strange though that your error still persists when mine was gone after that.
Are these directories still present? You can check it with ES File Explorer or any other file manager with root access.
/data/data/com.google.android.gms
/data/app-lib/com.google.android.gms-1
What if you try to install the previous version?
/data/data/com.google.android.gms is gone, the other on is still present. Installing the previous version doesn't work too (ISA-Error).

Rename it (to something like com.google.android.gms.old) and try to install again.
After renaming installation of the new version was possible and Gmail 5.0 is running. Thanks a lot for your help!

MobileIron detects Magisk's systemless root

Has anyone been able to get Magisk to work with MobileIron (enterprise device admin app)? I'm on a Nexus 6p with Magisk 13 beta and it detected that my device was rooted and disabled the MobileIron app.
Note: my devices passes the SafetyNet checks just fine
Have you added the app to the Hide list?
More things an app might detect can be found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/magisk-magisk-hide-troubleshooting-tips-t3561828
Check under "Other things to try".
I did try hiding without luck. I wonder if MobileIron's Device Administrator status somehow bypasses that.
Try uninstall the magisk manager app, any sudo management apps, etc.
Then if that doesn't work, try uninstall some of the well known root apps like titanium backup etc.

Yup, this is probably it. Out of curiosity i decompiled the apk, and it looks like mobileiron relies pretty strongly on package names, I didn't get the list (pulls from a server), but its probably looking for known root related apps.
Dont know how to solve that.
That mobileiron stuff looks terrible.

That's a very interesting way for it to be done.
If you are using an adblock, maybe check where it is polling from and block that IP through your hosts file.
Otherwise, you don't actually need the MagiskManager once everything is set up. If you uninstall, you still have root and MagiskHide working in the background, so maybe go for this and ensure that MobileIron is included in the MagiskHide list.
tried removing all suspicious apps (old SU apps, busybox, Magisk, etc) but still seems to see it
edit: nevermind, looks like Root File Explorer was the culprit
Please elaborate for the culprit,
Do you manage to run mobileiron with magisk?

Well it stopped giving me the root error message, yes. However, the email app doesn't seem to work for me, but that may be a separate issue.

Try to reinstall the app. I've Magisk V13 beta on Android 7.1. Secure Mail app (another type of enterprise email app) works fine. One time, it stopped working. I had to reinstall it to make it work again.

I had the same issue (firm is shifting all their Android users onto [email protected]). Spent untold hours with support and finally they realized there was a problem with my account ActiveSync at their end. The Mail+ app wasn't supposed to be asking for password at all.
Once they flipped the switch on that, everything worked.
at the moment i have the some problem with that root detection.. i don't know how to solve :-/ in the pasted it worked with magisk-hide.. but now :'-(
months later.. anykind of solutions?
When the company I worked at moved to MobileIron, I refused to put it on my device. They bought me (and paid service for) an iPhone for work and installed it on that.
If they require your off-hours attention, but don't consider you valuable enough for that investment, you may want to consider moving to a company that considers you less expendable.
it is not really a solution if you are independently, but thanks for you reply
I have been trying to achieve this as well, removed all root apps but still got an email saying that my device is rooted
Unfortunately, this is still an issue with the latest beta (16.6).
Any update here? I am experiencing the same issue
