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.

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.

Apps still installed after removing from /system/app even after wiping /data

I have my old Moto G5 ( Cedric ) XT1675
which was on Android 7 Nougat
To cut down on apps I didn't need I would use TWRP's file manager to remove/delete apps I didn't use ( but could be downloaded from the play store if needed ) from /system/app /system/priv-app
I fresh installed the 8.1 Oreo firmware but now for some reason any app I try to remove/delete from /system/app or /system/priv-app stays installed and still works perfectly, I have no idea why this is
Usually on any device I can uninstall any updates to a pre-installed app then remove the app from /system/app or /system/priv-app so i don't know if Motorola has changed something with the 8.1 firmware or if I am missing something.
Any help would be appreciated - Thanks Ryan

I experienced something similar when I was uninstalling all apps I don't need after rooting my phone.
Normal system apps worked fine uninstalling (used sdmaid)
But when I tried to uninstall things like motorola.bug2go or brapps (motorola.brapps), my account, my benefits, mybells etc it didn't work, neither with uninstaller nor deleting in system/apps folder. Most of them are disabled by standard but we'll.. why should I need an app I never heard from and which is even disabled in original ROM?

Even with system as read write and deleting for example Contacts ( or any app that won't update via play store ) the app is still somehow installed and working fine
did a TWRP backup to confirm apps weren't pretending to get erased and the apps i removed weren't there so the apps are being removed
Tried formatting data ( apps removed from system are still there )
It's odd I have never seen this happen before

After uninstalling stock apps some user apps force close on A520F

When I uninstall stock installed apps (it doenst matter which app I uninstall) and then reboot some of my user apps are instantly crashing when I try to open them (Steam, Feedly, and a few others).
When I restore a TWRP backup everything works fine. Even if I uninstall a single system app the error occours.
Has anyone experienced this before?

The best way to uninstall stock apps is to use debloat. If you use anything else, I guess that may interfere with user apps, and that may be the cause. Just try to use debloat which is a magisk module that creates a terminal command that lets you uninstall systemlessly. If you have any questions, just reply!

How is that module called? Can you send me the name or so?

The module is called debloater. It's in the download section of magisk manager. You can sort it alphabetically to find it quickly. When you find it, install it, do a reboot and voila.
The module only works if you have a terminal app. If you use a lineageos based rom like I do, you can enable the app via developer options. If not, then no problem. Try to find any terminal emulator via google play. Thus, you can use it! :victory:

Pixelize my Note 10+??

I have a Sprint variant (yuck). I don't particularly want to root it since I will lose some functions I use. But does anyone have a list of the commands to remove the Sprint bloat?
I also would love to get rid of Samsung native apps and replace with Google, like sms and all that. Is this possible without running into issues? I know deleting certain apps can make the phone act all wonky. Thanks in advance.

You can disable all the bloatware you do not want/like, via ADB commands, or, using ccswe and package disabler pro, which is way easier

I tried the last two with no luck, says apps like Amazon are system apps and can't uninstall. I'll have to set up ADB later and try that.

system apps can only be disabled (unless rooted) . Adb or otherwise.

With the onboard storage this device has, just disabling the unwanted stuff is good enough, furthermore, uninstalling certain things may lead to some troubles, it is safer to disable rather than uninstalling, package disabler pro can handle some system apps that ccswe can not, I use both apps

I Pixelized my Note 10+. First, use ADB to disable many Samsung and bloat apps (some Samsung apps are actually more functional than the Google versions so choose carefully). You can even find a patched version of the Google Phone app to replace the Samsung one, then enable it in default apps. Then you can install HEX Installer and Android 10 Q theme plugin from the Play Store.
The phone is much faster and cleaner looking and I don't mind the UI anymore.

I can't share files through Mi Share on my Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite, how can I fix this?

I've a Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite but since the last time I can't share files through Mi Share.
If I try to share something and then press "Share", I can only see Google's Nearby Share but however I can receive files through Mi Share.
I didn't remove Mi Share from my phone with Xiaomi ADB Fastboot Tools.
I've tried to install the apk file of Mi Share but that didn't solve the problem.
How can I fix this issue?

You may not have removed mi share but have you removed other Xiaomi apk as one app may call upon another service. You seem to have a lot of problems using apps & if you are restoring backups from other devices never restore system apps or apps which are proprietary to the old phone.
Also just ditch Xiaomi apps - if you want to transfer things from one device to the other there's loads of better apps out there
I use WiFi file explorer pro
You can test the free version up to 50 times
WiFi File Explorer - Apps on Google Play
Browse, download, upload, delete, copy, stream and manage files via WiFi!!
play.google.com
Place it on the device you want to copy data to and run it. On the other device type the ip address the app tells you in a Web browser and then you can access all the files on the other device and transfer files to it

Yes, it's true that I've some problems with apps and the UI but I've managed to find solutions to all of them.
I use only some Xiaomi apps, I've removed the most of them through Xiaomi ADB Fastboot Tools.

And that's probably your issue - you've removed something that app depends on to work
Use a 3rd party alternative as I've suggested above

Okay, then is my problem solved
