[Q] Any way to prevent apps from being uninstalled? - Galaxy Tab 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My kid sometimes incidentally uninstalls some apps from my SM-T311. I have tried several locking apps like SmartLock, Perfect App Lock etc... with app uninstall locking but these locking apps do not work well. I think maybe due to Kitkat as these work like champ on my old 4.2.2 phone.
Is there any way to lock uninstall apps then?

App lock works, register to an email address to unlock the ability to prevent Uninstallation of app lock. I use it on my teenagers smart phone. Best locking app I have found
I337 stock NC1, rooted, unlocked
Sm-T537A NE1stock, rooted

I'm using CMsecurity for my kid tab. there's a good feature AppsLock. this app with pattern security can blocking KK setting to uninstall apps and can block important apps like e-mail, SuperSU, AFwall, and root apps to open.
Child proof app i think

tried it and unfortunately didnt work. apps can be uninstalled on my rooted SM-T331...

The only thing I can think of is to convert them into system apps with TitaniumBackup.

You can install the app to system that way they cant uninstall it from app drawer
if their smart enough the put a pin on superSU and deactivate it so they don't uninstall it from ESfile explore

Take a look at "/system/app mover" - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.systemappmover, it can convert normal apps to system apps which should block uninstall

I may be late to this discussion but I have https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=imoblife.toolbox.full this with the applock plugin. I set up the applock to lock the uninstall feature in settings, tibu, es file explorer, basically any method of uninstalling things. Its a pin lock. Here are screenshots. I have this on all my Samsung devices (don't have my tab 4 8" yet but will install on there as well) and works perfect.

[Q] noob trying to dl gingerbreak

I am new to this, and I am trying to install gingerbreak. On my
Xperia play. When I download it goes onto the
Sd card and I believe that is why I am getting a message that it cannot install
And so I am following the instructions of chainfires. However I need help getting it onto
The actual device?
Please and thank you.
There should be no issuses installing apps from your sd card... i do it all the time
Sent from my R800i using Tapatalk
Use a file browser such as Astro (free on the market) to locate the file, click on it & open it with app installer.
yep gingerbreak has to be installed onto the phone, not the SD card, Go to settings>apps>manage>gingerbreak>move to phone.
Sounds to me like all you need to do is to go to settings . Applications . And allow unknown sources. Then install using a file browser.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App
Thanks for the fast reply's everyone. However when i go to find gingerbreak when i go to settings > apps > manage > Gingerbreak, it doesn't appear there. I also cannot use allow unknown sources as i don't have that option.
Any suggestions?

Wrong menu. Like I said, go menu->settings->applications. First chronic is "allow unknown sources".
After checking this. You can install from decade, using any file explorer.

That sounds odd, it should be in the settings were you manage your apps, as nieldk says, the first option. Wich language is your phone set to cause the application settings menu is not called the same in different languages.

I'm considering rooting as well, so I can remove the bloat apps. I intend on keeping up to date on the OTA updates, however. Does anyone know if it's possible to un-root after removing the bloat apps? Or, if it's safe to do the next OTA update after rooting? I don't mind losing the root, I just want to get rid of the bloat apps.

to unroot just delete superuser.apk from /system/app/ and remove su from /system/bin/ or /system/xbin/ (it changed by device)
Thanks Then it's safe to (after unroot) use OTA updates? Sorry, n00b here, before the Xperia Play I was using a Motorola dumb phone with custom ROMs.

I was just checking another forum,
And it said something about AT&T locks out Xperia phones. With some Xperia X10s having no Unknown sources option. But i cant seem to find anything about Xperia Plays with the same issue.
Do you know if that would apply to my phone?
Is there something to work around that?
Im not at home right now, i'm just glancing with someone elses computer, but i will look into it more when i get home.

Lbe has security hole when booting up. Plus doesnt work always. Had instances where something blocked got throught. Pdroid is better but you need to build deodexed rom and build own patch.
What did you install that triggered that permission request?

from the official topic with the LPY room
From the pics I can see that these are all Samsung and Google apps ,most of them should have access without even asking you ,so I guess it's either a bug or maybe a virus?
Anyway I think you can safely give these apps permission seeing they are all system apps.

as I said ,all of them are system apps ,it's just weird that they should ask for permission .
usually if a system appis asking for permission then it has been modified in some way, like modified google maps .
are you sure it is fully stock? if yes then it could be just a bug maybe?
you could probably solve this by wiping ,but since you are on LPY this has the potential of being lethal to your phone.
my advice is allow them access ,I doubt any harm will come of it.
Yeah those seem to be system app but why on earth LCD test and other apps would want to access your google account?
I suggest flash safe kernel wipe data then re-flash ICS.
Or downgrade to GB wipe data then upgrade to ICS.

GenieGO not supported on security tampered devices

My S4 and S3 both have been rooted, I guess that is the reason why I get this message.
Does anybody know of a quick workaround of this problem?
I and I am sure many others will thank your inputs.

P.S. Click here for app in Google Play Store
Does you S4 show "custom" status and the unlock icon? Or does it show "official"?
Could always decompile and remove the check from the code, but that is kinda hardcore, would need to find a smali badass to do it.

Just a thought, but if you can get the phone back to saying "official" without the padlock maybe it will work. There are a bunch of threads about regaining official status floating around the forums. Some methods work for some and other methods work for others. It might be worth trying though.
Most importantly: did you grant this application root rights? I once had an authenticator for an online game that asked for root rights. If granted, it complained about the risks of using the authenticator on a rooted system. It was interesting.
Now, otherwise I can't see how DirecTV is checking your device to see if it's been compromised, or "security-tampered" ... Unless it has rights to check that "device status - custom" that the others here are referring to?
If that's the case, it should be easy enough to get rid of the "custom" status by using SuperSU instead of SuperUser. It involves downloading/installing SuperSU, updating it and the SU binary, and then uninstalling SuperUser (the app that comes with Motochopper). A reboot or two is usually necessary.
If you've uninstalled bloatware or installed a custom kernel or rom, you're pretty much stuck with "custom" until we find another way around this.
Same issue here
Won't run on SG3 with Stock Rooted counter= 0 nor will it run on Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 on Cyanogenmod 10.1. Same error message. I assumed Cyanogen would trip but Stock Rooted? DIRECTV will have to address this.
Most of these apps won't run on a rooted device as they are security risks as far as they are concered

As mentioned, it is most likely either directly checking for known superuser apks or binaries or it is checking the "status" to determine if root has been achieved. If it is only checking for "status", then maintaining an "official" status should be enough to get it to run. If it actually checks for root, then the APK will need modifying to remove the check or return a reverse false positive or root will need to be removed.

Since it's a commercial app, IDK about doing that, if it's legal or against forum rules. There is a chrome extension that lets you dl it from the play store via the browser, or at least there used to be if it's been removed.

From what i read in other threads I'm led to believe this is a temporary root, and will disappear upon reboot. It also installs kinguser, not superuser, and superuser cant be installed to replace it.
Also, this was from the Dev thread directly

I think this guy should have noted in this video it only works on 4.4.4 kit Kat and that when you reboot you will lose root sometimes you don't even have to manually reboot it will just shut down randomly and root is gone ....and for Lollipop it only gets to 51% and auto shuts down I would just wait for the devs to just put something awesome together I tried it yesterday and it was a headache trying to not reboot but when it randomly shut down on its own several times I was done with it ...jmo!!

no. nothing permanent about kingroot. every reboot it is gone.
tried on Verizon Note4 and when I opened the app, it just show me the envelope and didn't give me the lock like in the video. So it's not working for me.
I tried this kingroot last night, say for like 5/10 min til I got tired of waiting and then I Uninstalled the shop and nothing had occurred. But I have no bank or sensitive info on device, nothing financial or even remotely sensitive info... so was worth it to try.
But no go and no root. And I wad ready as when I upgraded to lollipop and set up phone, play store was reinstalling apps from my note 3, that I switch back and forth between, installed supersu and titanium (though I've no root on 4 obviously! ) I was ready to jump into titanium and start Uninstaller Bloat if
I got proof of root thru supersu granting it, or whatever the kingroot Su access is. .. either way I wad ready though. ...
No go. .. so I leave it at that till someone comes up with a surefire way too do this.
Reading up on multisystem now... looks interesting! Since no more safestrap..... multisystem looks the way next forward, though a tad bit complicated. It'll work eventually!

I would expect about ten times more traffic on this in the thread, but seems so suspect that most appear not to be biting. Me included, but not worth it anyway IMO due to just a temporary root.

Yeah, I thought people would get crazy, but I mean , temporary root is not so bad right? For example it would work to get rid of the s finder and quick connect persistent icons on the notification bar , right?

Your only option to 'completly' disable it is by rooting and using app like Titanium backup to freeze, or even completly uninstall it.
If root is not the option, you can try Package disabler pro, it is pretty cheap, but i am not sure if it will completly disable the app.
Anyway your best and easiest option is to root and use titanium backup to uninstall it.

Oh, if you are rooted it is great, you were stuck on splash screen because you uninstalled apps that are required for phone to work.
If you want to be safer, i would suggest to you Safe Uninstall, this app creates backup of every app you uninstall

You can go ahead and uninstall weather, nothing will happen, weather and weather widget are pretty much useless if you don't use it.
If you are wondering if you can uninstall any other app, check my thread on which apps are safe to uninstall
