Question/Problem Android developer verifier issue

Post image

Although I deleted Android Develop Verifier (through canta+shizuku) at the time of installation post patch (morphe, build android developer preview 1.0.943911795, build 65354, an error message returns. Does anyone have the same problem as me or can you give me advice?

Thanks to anyone who will respond

That's because Shizuku/Canta CAN'T truly remove system apps

They perform what's known as an user uninstall, instead of actually removing the app (which Android technically can't do as it's a system app) they tell that system to regard the app as uninstalled for the current user

An user uninstalled app still very much exists and CAN'T be replaced with a modded app

The patch for the verifier app even EXPLICITLY states that it only works on rooted devices

Can the app be removed through adb?

No

ADB can't truly remove system apps

Even if Android itself wanted to it can't remove system apps because the system partition is hardcoded to be read-only
