First of all I have to apologise for my late reply. I'm following this thread quite some time and i have to admit, most of things you can do with TeMeFI is beyond my knowledge. But you're helping users without that deep knowledge about android / linux system / scripts repeatedly, your answers are detailed and understandable. You make this world a better place, thank you very much! :good:

Yes!

But who else should I ask if not the shell scripting god? I knew exactly who to ask ;)

Glad I could help :D

Great! I knew who to ask :angel:

I'm wondering who should have an interest to publish shell commands with additional slashes which make them not work :rolleyes:

If I follow the path you mentioned (Current State>Dumpsys>Dumpsys Service Calls>Recent SQL by .dB) in Dumpsys Service Calls I get a list beginning with Svc: accessibility and ending with Svc: window. Is that the correct place to search for the database of the blocked lists?

Thanks - again! Actually, I think I'm spending too much time in front of my computer or mobile phone, so sometimes I search for an easy solution. But: knowing how the things work and exploring the way to the solution makes fun indeed! When I think of what is buried in the system I'd like to have an easy access to it - and TeMeFI is the best tool for it. But as in real life: you have to know what and where to search for, so sometimes noobs like me need a helping hand to point the way there. Although: As you can read above obviously I'm not able to follow all steps you've described. Maybe you might give me a helping hand - again :fingers-crossed:

Edit:

Well, sometimes you should RTFM - again! Got it! :victory:

Saved it as favourite :cool:
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
Yeah, on second viewing that could be easily misread, but if you notice, there is a "v" before the "4". Its pretty common shorthand for "Version 4", and the Protection level you select is up to you. It is not telling you to select "method" 4, its simply informing you it will be using version 4, of whatever protection level you select. The thing to remember, TeMeFI is not able to recommend a protection level for you, its your device.

So, if you read it with the expansion, it reads,

DETACH: Select Package then Protection Level [B]Version [/B]4 against

Oh, almost forgot. You should NEVER visit the detached app in the playstore.

NEVER!

If you do so, I would run the detach again. We are playing hide and seek and you just yelled out "marco".

Chances are / my guess, is that the person who typed the web page up is not a coder, but a documentation/writer/web page builder type specialist. and also probably a human. We all make mistakes. Usually, not on purpose, nor for any benefit. I think In the 90 odd releases of TeMeFI, one or two have been due to correcting a typo:o and google have considerably more than 100 pages.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
There is a test of the detach within TeMeFI. You should use that, not the... errr... "enemy".

EDIT: duplicating YouTube in the list would only induce the confusion of 'whats the difference?'. Even if you missed it at the top of the list, you can always search dynamic menu lists by long clicking the "X" icon in the toolbar.
[Android Apps and Games] Philnicolls89:
I agree, you have made it very user friendly by eliminating any confusion! Seeing YouTube on the list twice would only lead to chaos lol:)

Thanks for all the hard work it is much appreciated:good:

This is a thread about TeMeFI, not detaching apps from the PlayStore. The detach is only 1 of 600+ methods. XDA has a search function for a reason.

So, that would be a no.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
It just dawned on me, the questions you both had is actually already answered by a feature within the TeMeFI app itself. A feature I think you are most probably not aware of, or not taking full advantage of.

If you see a menu item you are not sure of, if you long press the menu item, it will pop up a message box with extra details regarding the item (as well as an option to preview or run the item, after reading what it does and now being more informed). Admittedly, it is dependent on a programmer (i.e. me) documenting their work (which we are all known for not being pedantic about:cool:), the detach method actually has a pretty detailed info screen.And (lucky for me:highfive:) I did a pretty decent job for the detach method if I may say so myself :angel:

Is there a method to editing the build prop via TeMeFi without resorting to another 3rd party?
[Android Apps and Games] Ashish Gupta1999:
Can someone guide me? how to uninstall system apps using teMiFi :cyclops:
[Android Apps and Games] v.konvict:
Just realised when trying to detach an app that the list includes apps that i have long uninstalled already. Like a long time ago. Am wondering where can i find this list or how do i clear these old apps from appearing
[Android Apps and Games] v.konvict:
All of these are apps i used to have back then they are appearing on the list
[Android Apps and Games] v.konvict:
So what i did to clear the old apps. Was clear data on temefi app and playstore. When i opened the Temefi app again to detach the old apps were gone.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
No. Way outside the purpose of an App like TeMeFI. TeMeFI is a shell scripting app, and you would not use a shell script for random edits to your build props.There are much better purpose specific build prop editors out there. I use a free one from the playstore.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
Its the PlayStore data that is "strange". It keeps a record of apps you once had installed, but are no longer present. Clearing TeMeFI data would do nada. On a side note, if you have any issues, clearing TeMeFI cache would be a better option, and possibly /sdcard/TeMeFI as a last resort..

I noticed the above on my phone when building the method, but didn't see a simple flag at the time that identified the difference between a current app and an old app no longer installed, so didnt exclude them in the list. Ok, maybe I didn't look that hard:o

You can see the above for yourself if you do a dynamic database query against the playstores localappstate database [/data/data/com.android.vending/databases/localappstate.db] & table [appstate]; had you not already cleared the playstore data..Maybe install an app then uninstall it on the playstore will duplicate the issue. I guess it didn't bug me too much (and did not stop the detach of other apps) because I have a fairly "steady state" of apps installed, and I am not personally installing and uninstalling a barrage of apps.
[Android Apps and Games] TiVa:

cannot detach Truecaller from playstore

v11.27.8 taken from apkmirror

using latest temefi v1.0.93

TnxAloT
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
Do NOT get it from APK mirror, I never put it there. Use the link in the OP.

Whoops. I thought you meant TeMeFI, not the app (from APK Mirror).

Also, your screen shots don't tell me anything. eg. I have no idea which app you are talking about, so the menu with the list means nothing to me.

Run the built in detach check, save off the results, and post them here.

extra info: You cannot detach an app that is not attached to the playstore. If you side load it, you will need to give time for the playstore to attach the app, for TeMeFI to then be able to detach the app.
[Android Apps and Games] rypz79:
Sorry the package name is com.truecaller that's why I scrolled to com.t*

How do I run the detach check?

The only detached app I have is YouTube.

If the app shows an update available in playstore it means it's attached to playstore isn't it?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
And the fact it is NOT in your menu list to be detached, tells you its NOT ATTACHED (NB: Method 1 may also cause this behavior). Detached apps still show in this list, so as to enable you to correct a failing detach, or change the detach method.

There are two checks, and they are DIRECTLY above the detach. Clearly visible in the same menu.

And the reports above should be used to confirm that, and what method has been used and the status of any detachments.

Not so much. Currently method 3 has around 25 layers of detaching the app. During testing, I had only a few of these running (not all) and the app would show up in the playstore, even though it did not have the supporting structure below it to signify it was fully attached. The playstore can scan your system to see what is installed and try to correct for faulty attachments, and thus will also show apps that are not truly fully attached.
[Android Apps and Games] rypz79:
Alright I've "fixed" it.

Donwloaded & install as single .apk instead of split .apkm from APKmirror.

Yes I've been there didn't know that's you meant.

I used method 1. here is the report file.

I think there should be an option to export it to a text file that will keep the text formatting and give it a meaningful name (as a report file should be) instead of copy&paste to a text editor.

TnxAloT [MENTION=5417899]DiamondJohn[/MENTION]
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
that should be irrelevant.

even if you did not know what I meant, the names of the menu items alone should of given you a hint that maybe its something you should look into.

As i have explained before, method 1 is the least best option, and will only cause confusion for someone who does not read the info I have previously provided.

What are you talking about? the pencil icon is there to explicitly save off the results (its explained in the second post), and a text file IS un-formatted by definition. The only thing that makes it look "formatted" is if you open it up in a text editor, that uses a fixed width font. Which is what I do when I display it to you.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
I just read your results file. and you have used method 1 for youtube. THAT WONT WORK! Only use method 3 for youtube.

And as I have explained before, you will now need to re-attach (ie allow re-attachment through TeMeFI),. then get the playstore to actually attach it, and then detatch it.

You can easily switch between methods 2 and 3, but as soon as you go for method 1, you have the whole re-attachment process to sort out.

Also, I mentioned two reports, while you only supplied 1. And since you have 2 apps detached, then three. But dont bother now, as at the very least you have to re-do youtube,
[Android Apps and Games] ephemunch:
Since I did it with the Detach.txt method (YouTube Vanced) back in days and instead of it tried to detach Youtube Vanced with TeMeFI I cannot detach Vanced with method 2. TeMeFI always shows failed.

Method 1 worked till today. I woke up and saw that YouTube Vanced was deleted.

Ok deactivated Google Play Auto-Update and installed it new, and tried again detach method 1. (because method 2 never worked). After restart YouTube Vanced was again deleted.

If I check Detach Status Report of Application com.google.android.apps.youtube.creator

there is this:

Check 5.0 ***FAIL***

Check 9.0 ***FAIL***

Cannot upload html file here on xda so I make a screenshot of it (In few min I upload results of failed method 2) :

I have a second same smartphone model Honor 5X - KIW-L21 with same LineageOS build and YouTube Vanced but on this Smartphone I never did it with the Detach.txt. method. Instead I did it from beginning with TeMeFI and detach method 2 worked there. I need to check out if there is YouTube Vanced deleted too and if detach method 2 still working.

Edit: Ok, problem is now on both devices: Temefi 1.0.93 doesn't recognize Youtube or Vanced App (15.40.37) in Detach-list. Before this I checked on second device if Youtube/Vanced was deleted too. Yes.

And checked on Temifi detach (method 2) status. Same status errors like on device one (see picture).

So I cannot check on my second device if method 2 is working again because Temifi doesn't show Youtube/Vanced in detach-list.

Btw, it seems like Temefi deactivated without my knowledge Corona Application or Corona Google API since I updated to newest Temefi (from 1.0.92 to 1.0.93) because of failed Vanced detach attempts.

I don't know how to activate it.

So problems now: Youtube detach doesn't work anymore, Temefi does not show Youtube in detach list + Corona App does not work anymore
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
I would not use Method 1. Maybe use Method 2 on non-google apps, but method 3 if you wish to ensure it stays detached. But I wouldnt bother with anything other than Method 3 for Google apps.

Also, once you use method 1, it will no longer appear in TeMeFI for detachment. The same is true if you come from one of the other detach methods out there (such as is often used by Vanced users).

As I have explained before, my suggestion would be to:

1. Remove the app from detachment in TeMeFI

2. Re-attach the app. I only know of two ways that worked for me during testing.

i) Wait... patiently.... :rolleyes: ... maybe moving around the PlayStore and the app in question

ii) Click the update/install in Google play, and then quickly press cancel before it finishes downloading. i.e. before it gets a chance tio install it.​

3. Detach the app in TeMeFI, using Method 3

I know nothing about "Corona Application or Corona Google API", so if you want any assistance, then your going to have to do better than simply naming an app. At least differentiate between an app and an api.
[Android Apps and Games] ephemunch:
Thanks for answer.

After this I see Youtube in detach list again.

However detach method 3 doesn't work. Uploaded logfile

Corona-App (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.rki.coronawarnapp) works suddenly again.

Edit: Archived to get ''Reboot Now'' in Temfi after detach method 3. But after restarting Vanced is gone anyway.

All these months without problems and today Google ruined it.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
The log tells you.

...snip...
[B][COLOR="Red"]Your Playstore data for com.google.android.youtube is not valid to be detached.[/COLOR][/B]

If you have previously detached com.google.android.youtube, you may need to wait
sometime for the PlayStore to correct itslef.
Or maybe you could try uninstalling and reinstalling the app.
...snip...

YouTube is STILL NOT FULLY ATTACHED. This would be most likely due to using Method 1 or a previous detach method of some sort.

Welcome to android, there are a thousand moving parts.

I dont understand what you are trying to say? what has google change/ruined today?

As for if the detach was really successful, run the report/check on it. And NEVER visit the page in the PlayStore.
[Android Apps and Games] Philnicolls89:
Vanced disappearing after reboot on some devices is a completely separate and known issue on latest version 15.38.35.

You will need to search vanced thread for fixes but there are ways to make it survive a reboot. Sorry for the OT.
[Android Apps and Games] ephemunch:
English is not my native language

Thanks for the hint. Then I will install the original Youtube again until this is fixed by Vanced.

At the moment, it doesn't make any sense if Android deletes it after every restart.

Edit: Downgraded to 15.05.54 root-version with help of SAI App, checked detach method 3 with Temefi and after restart Vanced is still there. So Youtube-Vanced 15.05.54 + Temefi is without problem. Next time I will wait few months till I update something.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
Manually translating/explaining English is not my first choice. Use an online translation service if you know it to be a problem.

Do not forget, it is a modified version of a google app, not something built from the ground up. Vanced have not programmed it that way, its a flow on from something GYT does, or is a flow on effect from an android standard mode of operation.

I am still happily using v14.21.54. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". I am far from a "power user" when it comes to YouTiube on my phone. There are also some features which I think have changed (by GYT updates). Namely PiP. I am also using it as a Magisk Module.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
You run canary, the budgie can die

You should also see a request for root.

As for your version of Magisk, the latest stable is 20.4, which I am running on Android 10. On my other phone, I am running Oreo with Magisk 20.1 (stable). There has been a history with bugs in the Canary builds of Magisk. It is called Canary for a reason.

[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
No.My app works with STABLE Magisk. You said yourself, its an official BETA which means it officially is expected to have bugs. Beta's are released to elucidate bugs.

You found a work around for Magisk, you did nothing with this app, and it now works. Clearly its the beta Magisk, not this app. If anything, you should report the bug in Magisk on github to get it fixed, instead of expecting others to change their software to work around any beta software you have chosen to test. If you do not understand the way Beta software works, then possibly you would be better off with stable.
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
New Build!

New Version v1.0.94

Interesting things in this release:

Album art for a specific album

Multiple Album art for albums starting with a selected character

Magisk internals

Fixed the message/toasts text before running a favourite

NB: The album art has the actual art work encoded into the file results, so if you save it off and open it up on a different device/computer, the artwork also will be displayed on the destination device, as its NOT a link to the art file residing on your source device. The problem with this is that the files (usually for a list of albums) can get rather large.

I have to admit, I'm a little chuffed with myself on this one.:o:D

Download: SEE OP!

New Items. within the menu at "TeMeFI Configuration>New Menu Items"

Updated Items. within the menu at "TeMeFI Configuration>Latest Updated Menu Items"

The majority of these are because of updates to shared code.

Android 11 compatibility

I can't see some apps when listing in Android 11. Basically every app updated or installed after updating to Android 11.

I've tried uninstalling and re-installing, but I still don't see them.

Trying to fin the problem, listing "/data/app" I some of the apps with their canonical names, and some with names like this "~~0KYS5DF8UjjXdJ0bbtMYRg==".

For example, a part of my apps:

drwxrwxr-x 4 system system 4096 2020-09-12 15:17 xyz.omnicron.caffeinate-aSFECCwc4aDJ5n7FHE3r1Q==

drwxrwxr-x 3 system system 4096 2020-09-26 16:37 ~~0KYS5DF8UjjXdJ0bbtMYRg==

drwxrwxr-x 3 system system 4096 2020-09-18 14:50 ~~0cfvplb08-XDYwN6iDHW-w==

drwxrwxr-x 3 system system 4096 2020-09-29 14:26 ~~1IIjy4_JwJOsGL2EbWJKJg==

drwxrwxr-x 3 system system 4096 2020-09-26 16:40 ~~1_huziN2HfwkuGa4bBNTHg==

If I go inside, I can see the canonical name, like this: com.amazon.clouddrive.photos-Bh3RtYgUiYihe_LqCcc3Mw==

It seems in packages are being stored in a different way, like commented here:

https://github.com/termux/termux-app/issues/1617
[Android Apps and Games] DiamondJohn:
A few points:

1. You forgot to specify what method/function you are actually trying to perform. I happen to know you were trying to systemise an app.

2. You have assumed it is using a simple directory listing to get a list of apps, which it is not. TeMeFI has the functionality to show you exactly what is being run to not only complete the action, but also to build the list for a menu. If you long click the menu item before (ie that takes you to the list) and select "Preview" it hands you the code, which clearly shows it is not a directory listing to get a list of 3rd party apps. If you checked the code, you will find the core of the script that builds the list is:

cmd package list packages -3;

Try running that code and posting your terminal results.

3. You are running Android 11. Is it a custom ROM or google/samsung/etc ROM? Most custom ROMs of Android 11 I have seen are pretty much alpha/beta's.

4. To circumvent any round trip,run the same command as a busybox command, and post those results as well.

Hi,

Love how well the detach function works with TeMeFI!

Ran into a problem after upgrading from 1.0.79 to 1.0.94 where the Google Play Music app (com.google.android.music) that I detached in 1.0.79 (method v3) no longer appears in the Check Detach or Enable Attach lists. When I go to Enable Attach, I get an Error: No such table... I do see 2 instances of com.google.android.music under list of configured detached apps, but I used to see 3 instances with the old version of TeMeFI.

Also, the list of possible apps to detach is either shorter or it's just that I only see package names now (com.microsoft.office.excel) and before I saw the more common name (Microsoft Excel). Would be great to get the list back to the way it was with mostly common names and a few package names like com.google.android.music.

As a remedy, I am hesitant to remove all detach artifacts and then clear Google Play Store data unless I can be sure that com.google.android.music will reappear in the Detach list. The detach v3 seems to work for now but it would be great to again have control over this function and not errors simply from upgrading versions of the app.

If I lose the ability to detach the old version of Google Play Music, then I will be stuck with an upgraded version which Google no longer allows me to use to play my music (Google wants me to be on Youtube Music which is HORRID for playing downloaded music IMO!)

Thanks in advance,

Drew
