adb Failure [DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR]

Question

I'm dealing with a pretty major malware issue on an Elite 6.0L+ Sky Device. I'm working with a fellow from the malware bytes forums trying to get it cleaned out. I'm trying to uninstall a few apps through adb via command prompt but it's throwing errors.

adb pm shell pm uninstall com.wouzee.hispanopost 

That command throws the error:

Failure [DELETE_FAIL_INTERNAL_ERROR]

If I try it as

    adb pm shell -k --user 0 uninstall com.wouzee.hispanopost 

Then is throws: Failure [no installed for 0]

I have managed to uninstall other things using these commands but the two things I've been told to remove both throw these same errors when I try to remove them.

Does anyone have any idea how to get around this?

Answer 1

I was having the same problem uninstalling with:

adb shell

pm uninstall <package>

This is what worked for me eventually:

adb shell

pm uninstall --user 0 <package>

Answer 2

Some Apps are prevented from uninstalling. You can disable them instead. Use following command on adb shell:

pm disable-user --user 0 <package>

Answer 3

就我而言，我尝试使用adb uninstall bundleID卸载package ，但设备根本没有安装package 。

Answer 4

Here is my solution, I uninstall some system apps come up with [DELETE_FAIL_INTERNAL_ERROR] too

1. use adb shell su to enter shell mode
2. then using pm uninstall --user 0 <your-pkg-name> to uninstall

PS: if only use adb shell my situation will generate error too, the su is the key to solve problem
