An easy way that I use to find the correct package name for any use, is to use a desktop browser, find the app in the playstore, and the correct package name will be the last item in the URL. For example, for googles calculator app (com.google.android.calculator)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.calculator

You can of course use the browser on the device.

Using copy-paste of the URL ensures I dont make any mistakes. I have also used it to validate a package name I sourced from somewhere else (eg a double check of what I find in the databases), by changinging the above URL

it's been a long time and I've been using Detach v5.3... I take it detach 3.12 supercedes it?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cahir1495:
I'll check it out later, thanks anyway

Edit: I did as you said @hinxnz and it worked. Thanks again!

They both are systems to detach packages from playstore, but different methods.

Just tried using this on my OnePlus 8 Pro, and it nuked it. My device won't boot now, it eventually boots into RescueParty. This is the first few lines of the error, There is quite a few more lines after those.

Just tried, what version? Your log sniplet has nothing related to mod, it only edits playstore db and disables a few components. I suggest uploading your full log to your rom developer.

I tried V3.12 by hinxnz, but after some time the applications are back in updateable apps in play store.

When I flash v.312 again, they dissapear again.

Additional flashing of 5.3 by sbuj does not help... only at that moment I can see the apps in playstore, it also detaches only for a while....

I am on a Pixel 6 Pro with Android 12

Do you have Tasker? I'm running a profile which helps immense. I attached the profile in this post so you can import it. I hope it includes the task. If not let me know. I found the code somewhere here in this thread I think. It checks if there are new updates on the playstore and restarts the detach module.

After implementation of the profile I never saw again my 'blacklisted' apps under updates.

I'm running version 3.12

Then you only have to adjust the path to your detach.zip file in the task.

su -c magisk --install-module /storage/emulated/0/Detach/detach-3.12.zip

Does this work fully for A12?

Phone is a Oneplus 7pro running the latest Flamingo Rom A12 V1.0

I can get Youtube music to detach but Youtube won't because the com.google.android.youtube command although there in full in the zip shows with the "c" missing in the Magisk module flash ( ie: om.google.android.youtube)

Any ideas guys.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] midgo12:
In my case the "c" from com at the front was missing from the youtube command but not from the youtube music command for some reason, although both were showing in full in the zip flashed.

Using the clue given to look at the "detach.cfg" at /sdcard/Android in the post mentioned I used a root explorer to open the file add the "c" save and reflash the module and fix my problem.

It may not seem like a big deal to others but it was a success for me

TIP

You can add package names to the cfg file to be excluded from play protect.

So meaning, you can hide an app if showing false positive in a scan.

Just flash the module if using root version of revanced, it should have the same package name.

The package should be com.google.android.youtube

If it reappeared in playstore, just reflash the module again for now

Hello, trying to use detach but not working for me ( Android 13 )

Busybox installed

Detach installed

Termux :

su -c detach -a : detach not found

Any help please ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hinxnz:
The method your mentioning is not for my mod, it's from a forked one of this.

Busybox not needed and no need for termux commands. Just a configuration file is used with the package names.

Refer to first post.

Hello fellas,

one dumb question, is it safe to detach Google services, play,and wallet.. my intention is my phone current magisk configurations has everything works, don't wanted Google services auto update on background and detect device root status..if so another nightmare, have to find new modules..flash test..... repeat..

Pls suggest.thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hinxnz:
Yes, you can, and safe to do so. I can't guarantee google services will not update though. I haven't tested this since version 2 of this mod, which is outdated with the newer versions of play. Google services tends to download partial updates in the background, unknown to me if related to wallet etc.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bizkit_120:
Thanks. Will try. Also would you mind let me know how to detach Slack app,for whatever reason I can't find Slack full package name.

Update: pls disregard above question, there was a typo on detach txt, corrected it.Slack also gone from Play installed app list..🙂
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bizkit_120:
Also facing same issue now , didn't realize in first 2 days, it happens after awhile, Any solution for this? Only one thing I can think of I didn't add Play store and Google services to the list, not sure if add them will make any difference?🤔
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hinxnz:

Hey,

I try to detach youtube and youtube music cause I use vanced and don't want play store to break everything everytime.

I've made a file "detach.cfg" in "/sdcard/Android/" (equivalent to "/storage/emulated/0/Android/" containing

com.google.android.youtube

com.google.android.apps.youtube.music

Then, I install the Magisk module, everything seems to work fine by showing both apps in "Detaching market link(s).

Anyway if I reboot or not, Google play store still show those apps updates.

I suppose I'm doing something wrong but I have no clue.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Primokorn:
"If it reappeared in playstore, just reflash the module again for now."

(as OP said)

I've seen that but it doesn't work at all. If i flash the module and go chech immediately, nothing has change.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Primokorn:
Try relaunching the Play Store. It worked for me.

I finally opted for the no root version of ReVanced BTW.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Ladack:
I tried with no change :(

I though about that but want to still be able to use ok google to change song... cause I mainly use it in my car.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bobimbap:
What I did to fix this issue was:

1. Press and hold the PlayStore app, press (!), clear cache and data.

2. Relaunch the PlayStore, let it load, then check to see if it still asks for an update. Yes, it does.

3. Flash the module, and ensure it displays your app name in the Magisk description as it runs correctly.

4. Open PlayStore again, voila! The update is gone.

Regarding detach, you should NEVER clear the playstore data. If you have to, then immediately re-run any detach system.

with the Detach module (not the one of this thread) I have the same problem, apps reappear in the updates anyway. and I've even scheduled the detach command to run every hour, which makes it even more odd.

the scheduling is done via the DJS module, if it matters.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] XtraWater:
It should run the task when detach realizes that be updated available are. But this is but it's not 100 reliable. So I added s profile euch every 12 hours run the task. If you don't want to see the notification you can disable it within the task.

Is this the first time you used detach?

If not: It may have to do with the .cfg file.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] XtraWater:
The Detach module for Android phones stopped working in May 2023 due to a change in the way that the Google Play Store works. The Google Play Store now uses a new signing system that makes it impossible for the Detach module to detach apps.

The Detach module worked by exploiting a vulnerability in the Google Play Store's signing system. The module would modify the signature of an app so that the Google Play Store would no longer recognize it. This would allow the app to be uninstalled and reinstalled without updating it.

The Google Play Store's new signing system prevents the Detach module from modifying the signature of apps. This is because the new signing system uses a different algorithm to generate signatures.

There is no current workaround for the Detach module.

From Google Bard
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DiamondJohn:
ahhhh... I looked at this detach a few years ago, and THIS wasnt changing the signature. From memory, It deleted the existence of its reg locally. EDIT: Just checked, and it now changes one dB field, and explicitly / manually turns of "Auto-Updates", which can be done from the UI (to no avail for Youtube, at least not for all) as well as trying to stop the Playstore from doing background updates. Nether of these are the apps signature, as in com.google.android.youtube

AND there are a couple of detach methods available apart from this particular one.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] XtraWater:
Temefi doesn't work for me. I don't know now. Do you have experience with that tool or do you know other methods.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DiamondJohn:
It wont work if you do not understand HOW to use it. I have only seen a single user that it has failed for, and trhat was because he wa using it in a a situation i did not code for. He had multiple google accounts on the phoine with both having youtube installed. Other than hat case, I have yet to see a single confirmed case of someone using the detach correctly and having it fail. The only other caveat is where the playstore blow themselves away completely to do an upgrade. But even for me, it has in the past only broken a few of the 20 odd steps I take, and the detach itself, stopped any unwanted upgrade.

AND TeMeFI is NOT the only other detach option.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] XtraWater:
what else methods exist?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DiamondJohn:
again, do your own investigation (although that would be a requirement for ALL methods, on how to use it correctly) and its OT on this thread. Please show some respect to the thread owner.

My method 3 still works for existing detached. However, it appears they mayt hav e altered the way my GUI allows you go select NEW apps to detach.... hmm. I had a new release in the works anyway.

See link in my footer.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dobi3:
It seems to be Google Play Services update(s) that affected the detach..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DiamondJohn:
My Vending update came through yesterday. Every year around the time of a new release of android, google get busy with the playstore. It should be minor change for me, as its simply listing the registered apps.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JoeF2:
I assume the db schema changed. Haven't verified that, though. I am now using zydisk-detach.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DiamondJohn:
I have applied a fix for my detach, which had an issue in that it did not pull up a full list of attached apps *The detach did not need any changes, just where I pulled up a list of apps). What I found, was that they appear to have moved the majority of their data between tables (ie list of installed/attached apps), without any schema changes. At least not that would affect me;).

Now its been a while since I checked this detach, but *MAYBE* the detach simply needs to move between tables.

The slight confusion is that on one A13 device, the previous table is filled in, but on another A13 device (both based on crDroid), it is not.🤬
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JoeF2:
That's weird. I am sure it is not crDroid related. I have seen this issue on my OnePlus 7T Pro McLaren, home-built Lineage 20 (with crDroid device tree), as well on my OnePlus 5T with straight Lineage 20.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DiamondJohn:
I dont think its crDroid either, I just mentioned it as a statement of fact (ie they werent that dffeerent), I think its the playstore, and the wonderful code below. I remember, the table it now no longer appears to fully fill on one device, which appears to somehow have two users, historically had a random name for youtube, ie they filled the data, but some was rubbish, and I never saw them use the rubbish data.

I installed the

I installed the zygist-detach module but don't see how it works. There is no app by that name. How do you list the apps which you want to exclude from updating?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Guido83:
Go into. Terminal and type "detach"
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JoeF2:
https://github.com/j-hc/zygisk-detach/tree/v1.8 That explains the usage.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vettean:
So to use the module, one needs knowledge of how to use scripting with Termux. Ugh Guess I am out of luck.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JoeF2:
No you don't. Temux is just a terminal emulator. You need a terminal, or adb shell. That's it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vettean:
In the instructions it states:

Run helper cli in termux:

$ detach or $ su -c detach

I have no idea what "helper cli" means whether its Temux or another terminal emulator. If you could provide instructions as to what to type in a terminal for someone unfamiliar with terminals that would be helpful. If I were to use abd, would all I need to do is type $ detach and then the package names I want to exclude on subsequent lines?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JoeF2:
Cli stands for command line interface. A terminal emulator lets you write commands on the command line. Temux is just one of many terminal emulators available in the App store.

You need to run the command as superuser. If you use Magisk you have an su command.

Sorry, no pretty pictures. Please use your favorite search engine to find out about these things.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vettean:
Realized I just need to type in $ su -c detach in a terminal emulator and then type in the package names to be excluded and it works. The terminal emulator I downloaded from the Play Store was easier to use than Termux.
