You need to be rooted to uninstall preinstalled Facebook. I dont know if there is another complicated way. Sorry dude.
[Android Apps and Games] nikhil.agrawal:
XDA released a tutorial some days back where you can uninstall a system app without root. Although it will be come back when you reset the phones as it removes the app from current user only. It works mostly on stock roms, don't know if it will work on Samsung. I used it to delete tons of stuff from my OnePlus 3t.

Hello! You say uninstall all other apps from Facebook... My device has it preinstalled and there's nothing I can do about it...

I have got suggestions how to, from XDA, but that's not an opt for me, nor have I an computer nor can I borrow one where I can install third part programs... ?

Isn't there any other way for all of us with devices that has Facebook preinstalled and not are able to debloat it...? ?

[Android Apps and Games] CONTINUUM2:
You must use with that too. This app is out of date, no one is developing now. You have 2 options: remain at is it, or delete it from your phone. Sorry about that!
[Android Apps and Games] r-l:
A small tip that works for me on multiple devices.

1. Install the modded version in the opening post

2. Open the app and login.

3. Delete the modded version

4. Download the official app from the play store

5. Open the official app and login

My official app is now ad free, only thing that sometimes show up is the friends part. If for some reason after an app update the ads return just repeat the process. This solution is working on my OnePlus 6 and huawei mediapad m5.

This has been working for 6 months for me.

Even though this app is not being updated anymore I still find it works well. Go to page 1 to download.

Facebook-lc-16.2 (android 8 min)

Messenger-241.2 (android 8 min)

Remember to remove any official facebook supported apps first, then power down your phone, wait 10 seconds and then start phone. Install the two modified apps and open the facebook-16.2 first, messenger 241.2

If your phone came with facebook pre-installed as a system app then you are out of luck unless you root your phone.
[Android Apps and Games] MRDA1981:
Search results have stopped working on all these FB-LC apps. I had to throw in the towel and download the official app.

Also messenger 236.0.0.14.120 and i dont get any ads/ update notification of any kind on both apps. Been like that for years. Thanks developer!

Thanks to

for his instructions, I have been able to install the app. Although I have followed this guide

https://www.andnixsh.com/2020/01/how-to-install-unsigned-apk-root-method.html

In step 6 I could not take the last screenshot and I have passed to take the test. I have not been able to check the box either "only patch dalvik cache"

Note: I have uninstalled all the facebook package using ADB (usb debugging required). Besides having rotated my s10e with magisk. Using root uninstaller i lost root

adb shell
pm list packages | grep facebook

below shows all the packages that we must uninstall

and we use this command

pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.facebook.katana

I hope it will be of great help to you. I've used a loser translator for bad English.

[Android Apps and Games] Davy49:
Hi,

It looks like I might have discovered this app a little too late, I went ahead and downloaded the apk file but as of yet I haven't un-installed the actual facebook...etc. apps so I could at least try out this modded version. Just for the heck of it I probably will still do so. 😋

I tried to install this app on my LG V30 android phone running android version 9.0. I tried more than once, the app refused to install everytime I tried. Like others have said, guess it's back to the actual facebook app for me as well. ☹️

This seems to work for me to block sponsored post.

Setup a private DNS on your phone settings - connections - more (could be different on your phone and you meed android 9 or higher).

Choose private DNS and add ' dns.adguard.com'

Make sure you don't run blokada, Adguard or a VPN app.

Things like: stories, people you know, groups etc will still show up, but no irritanting sponsort ads in the official Facebook app.

For Facebook I used Swipe until it got taken down but I managed to save the APK (I had bought the Premium version) but since you can no longer install it, now I use a client called "Frost", it blocks all ads and has some extra features that make it easier to use than the "official" Facebook app, not to mention the lesser battery usage and other perks.
