Just had something weird happen. I have Extended Controls installed and it isn't working. I was gonna uninstall and reinstall but it won't let me uninstall. Says uninstall not successful. Tried with the uninstall in the top right, with the easy uninstall app and directly in the app menu. None worked. Anyone had this issue???

Hi,
There are apps that I can't uninstall: I run parameter/system/remove programs and I get an error like "This app could not be completly removed. Do you want to remove it from the installed program?"
I hit Yes, but still it does not remove it from the list.
Any idea?
I have the same problem.
please anyone got a answer
i faced the same problem as well..
please anyone give solution...
Sometimes this happens when two or more cab files share the same files and one has already been uninstalled. Try reinstalling the application you are trying to uninstall, and once installed, try to uninstall again.
I tried to install Bandswitch except for some reason it didn't work so I tried to uninstall it, it said that it was not completely removed and if I want to remove it from the list of installed programs, but the app still shows up in the uninstall list and I try to install the latest version it says it can't since there is a version already installed, it also tries to replace it but gives me an installation unsuccessful message.
Is there any way of completely getting rid of this and then being able to install the latest version.
sounds like you might need to hard reset unless you speak to the developer of the app you are having problems with.
unless... try installing the same version again?

Hi. You can use SK Tools to uninstall the app, and also use Memmaid to delete the shortcut(icon).
No hard reset needed
Windows Mobile can be a ***** for uninstalling apps. Usually if there is a process still running for the app when you try to uninstall it you will run into trouble.
Soft Reset between using an app and trying to remove it. Of course if the app loads itself on Start-up this will be futile
In this case it may be a Hard-Reset to fix the isue. Sorry.

Agreed, if you are using the "remove programs" option that comes with the phone, its not good.
I use Memmaid and it always removes it completely for me so as mentioned give that a go first before a hard reset.

Are you trying to uninstall via ActineSync/WinMODeviceCenter?
Do it from the phone and install by copying your cabs to the mem card and ruuning the installer from there.
Then you won't have a history of installed apps that builds up with AS/WMDC.
After enabling MFG,
it seems as it the only way to remove it from the app list is by uninstalling.
Does it uninstall for good?
or can I bring it back later again?
In other word, Does uninstalling perminently uninstall mfg?
or just delist from the app list?
Thank you`!
What I think happens is that by uninstalling, it removes the program. However, the install xap file is still on the system and can be reinstalled by putting in the right key code.
Great question, I had the same one.
But it won't screw anything up right?
no, it won't
After uninstalling applications, they still show in the "manage application" section
Hi,
I don't know if someone else experienced the following issue. I tried to search it on the net but couldn't find something similar.
a few days back I purchased the autodesk sketchbook mobile and I also downloaded autodesk Pixlr-o-matic from the market and I also downloaded Trial Xtreme from Samsung apps, and they all worked fine. But I realised that everytime I reboot my phone those apps started to Force Close.
I decided to uninstall and install again and they worked fine, but again if I reboot the phone, they will stop.
Another thing I found when I was uninstalling those apps, is that some apps that I previously uninstalled are still listed in the manage applications section but with no icon and 0 bytes size. and if I click uninstall they disappear and when I reboot my phone they show again.
My phone is rooted and I tried wiping the cache and the dalvik cache, but the problem is not solved.
I wonder is those issues are related and if someone else experienced the same problem.
Thank you for your help.
Regards
Bassem
anybody ??
So I am using lucky patcher to create modified apps. I download an app from Google play just fine, but I modify it then uninstall/install. When I try to install it says it conflicts with an existing package. My question is does it have something to do with the Uninstalled app section in settingd or is it something else? I have looked all over the phone for any files still leftover and can't find any... I have also looked on Google for a solution and none have worked.
Try rebooting after uninstall then install.
Thanks

I figured out I was restarting after installing from the play store instead of after uninstall. Thanks for the help =)
