In my installed apps [ Google Play : ALL APPS ] this Games & apps (by Sony Mobile Communications) appear as installed but actually I cannot find it anywhere. How can I remove it since I cannot find it anywhere, not even with root explorer or any other explorer tool.
Have you tried removing it with Titanium backup?

Yes, Even Titanium can't find that app. It's just not showing up.
SOLVED
When you see a pop up : This applications want to acces your google account, press DENY. Ofcours you also have the option to APROVE.

Hi,
I have a rooted Arc with Locked BL, work with 4.0.4...
I have delete some Google sys apps like calendar and download interface. HOWEVER, I have tried many times to delete SE's apps but I failed. I have tried with titanium, explorer and Rom-toolbox. What I can do is just disable SE's apps from apps overview setting.
Any idea?
That's surprising. You can't delete apps even though you're rooted?

Try Root Uninstaller from the Play Market. I did not have any problem to delete any app I want, included SE. Actually, it does not delete, but let you uninstall.
with ics 4.0.4 there is a new folder for apps /vendor/app/
first mount it R/W with root explorer then u should be able to delete the SE apps
I have tried Root Uninstaller pro too. but I can't.
All rooted apps get rooted access, However, they give me an error when deleting apps.
Titanium gave me this error:"Failed to locate the apk file".
Root Uninstaller gave me this message:"Can not uninstall app, an unknown error occurred".
What really surprising me is: I could not find SE apps in system\app ?!!!!!!
NOTE THAT: I have rooted my ARC by flashing ARC S kernel, get the root, then, flash ARC kernel again. The root is there. All apps need root are working very well.
I tried another way to uninstall SE's apps. I reflashed ARC S kernel again... I deleted SE's apps. then, I reflashed ARC kernel, and I found all SE's apps?!!!
All what I can do is: Disabling these apps from system details (App info). But, I want to delete them to get more space.
ANY IDEA...
Remember that, I can't find SE's apps in system\app.

Thanks alot for this great information.
I have delete what I want.
Good evening,
I just bought a second (used) Galaxy Nexus as a reserve and restored a CWM Backup from my main device.
So far no problem, but both in the Play Store and in the android device-manager, the two devices get listed as only one.
When I install apps using my desktop PC and the Play Store, the app ends up on both devices, and when i let the device-manager call the device, also both devices ring.
I would prefer if every device have got its own entry
Deleting and re-entering my Google Account on the reserve-device wasn't a solution, exactly like the un- and re-installing of the Google device-manager-app.
Do you know how Google identifies the devices and i can fix the problem?
Have you changed your device host name?
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
Thanks, but it didn't help, i added a "new" to the hostname, rebooted the device, deleted and re-added my google account, but there is still no change in the device-manager

Make sure Titanium Backup is installed. Then remove all Google accounts.
Open Titanium Backup -> Menu -> Under Your Device "Manage Android ID" -> Create new (random) Android ID
Hopefully this works.
Mh, thanks, but it didn't help either...
I installed Titanium Backup, deleted the google Account, rebooted the device, created a new Android ID, rebooted again and added the google account again, but the android device manager still knows only one device.

I have installed RDMP app from Google Play, which is a device administrator app. I am unable to uninstall it. I tried to deactivate it from SETTINGS->DEVICE ADMINISTRATION but after pressing deactivate button, it cannot be unchecked and thus I am unable to remove it.
I am currently on b506.
Any help.

If your device is rooted use Root Uninstaller. You can uninstall system apps.

In System apps there is no app with the name RDMP so that I can uninstall.

Hi guys, i have the same problem whit my G8. I can't find the retail demo in any folder. How can i delete it?
YESSSSSSS !!!! i find !!!!
i do a search in root explorer, in search i write apk and in the results there is. So i delete it and i solved the problem!!
I also managed to find the retail demo application using 'root explorer' but it's not giving me any options to force delete the application. If i delete the individual system files of the application, would i cause stability issues with the phone?
Hello everyone.
I can't install or update any apps because Play Store doesn't see any Google account - it says I need to log in but I am already in.
I think I know what happened. My friend wanted to delete some apps (docomo, Google) which he doesn't need and after factory reset docomo apps were installed but some Google weren't.
So, could you tell me which apps are installed (with APK names if possible) on the device at start?

If your friend just deleted those apps from within your devices settings app, a factory reset will restore those apps again.
System apps are only permanently lost if they are removed with high privileges (having root access).
Can't you log in manually in play store or remove your current account from the phone and then reconnect it?
Also, did it help to delete the data of play store as well as cache?

Everything you say I tried earlier with no result.
So It works now after I use VPN to add an account.
It was Google mistake. They broke many phones yesterday
Hi.
Today I needed to pay something through my banking application, but the application did not allow me access because it detected malicious software on my phone and it is Whatsapp PLUS, which I have to uninstall in order to enter the banking application.
What should I do now if I use Whatsapp PLUS all the time, but at the same time I need access to my banking application?
How does a banking application detect that I am using an illegal Whatsapp Plus application?
Is there a way around it?
Thanks a lot.
And for info root I have over Magisk.
This might seem trivial, but have you tried revoking the "Get info about installed apps" permission?
Most apps use this to index all your apps and check for so-called "malicious" package names.

What should I do?
Even if I freeze WhatsApp via titanium backup, the bank's application still notifies me that there is malicious software on my device - WhatsApp.
That I should just uninstall it.

go to your banking app's "App Info" page, under permissions, look for "Get info about installed apps" and if it is "Allowed", change it to "Deny"
this is assuming you are on MIUI. I'm sure other ROMs also have a similar permission.

What is the package name of your whatsappPlus app? You should find it in the "App Info" page for the app. Should be something like "com.whatsapp"

There is no such setting about allowing the installation of applications under permissions - allowed / deny

In that case you either modify the app itself - use apk editor to decompile app , edit manifest.xml and remove permissions like "query all packages" from it . Compile the app and run it again. This might work but if app is protected in some way that it detects modification you might get banned from it or worse :/
Other way is to isolate WhatsApp Plus by using tools like virtual xposed - basically a virtual container. You can install WhatsApp in there and it shouldn't cause any issues but I'm not sure you'll be able to receive notifications... ( You can try installing bank app in there instead but I'm not sure how that'll work... Either it will detect root/xposed or the container itself will allow querry all packages to seep through into main os - this depends on whether virtualxposed has declared permission for querying packages or not )
Third option is probably the best one - Uninstall and use web browser to access banking.
maybe whatsapp plus is indeed malicious
use malwarebytes for android to check whether whatsapp plus is malicious or not
