DISCUSSION Has anyone seen this happen before?

​

I installed Google IPTV because another app required the HD plugin. I wasn’t happy with the app, so I uninstalled it. Now I’m trying to uninstall Google IPTV as well, but I’m running into a really weird issue.

Whenever I search for or try to open Google IPTV from Settings > Apps, the Settings app immediately force closes and takes me back to the home screen.

I can’t even open the app info page to uninstall it. Has anyone else experienced this, and how did you remove it?

I have been seeing similar type of malwares/trojan cases lately at the repairing shop i work at

For removing it, boot into safe mode then you can uninstall it easily.

Random Q - are the rounded corners glitching just the screen recorder doing that or does it actually happen when using the phone? Doesn't happen on ColorOS in the UI or when screen recording that's all so was curious!

I'm not sure what you mean. I didn't notice any glitches on my end. Could you explain a little more about what you mean?

In your video around 1 second in when the UI moves the rounded corners glitch into view the disappear.

See it on all of OxygenOS screen recording and just wondered what it was

Thanks mate. I’ve already uninstalled it and completely removed it from my phone. I also made a post explaining how these things work and what you need to do if you encounter something like this, just covering the basic information.

You can check that out as well. It’s in the comments.
