Assuming you have ADB set up, open up the Terminal if you're in Linux or the Command Line if you're in Windows and type the following:

adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
cd /system/app
ls
rm *name of app*

Click to expand...

Click to collapse

thank u

i installed terminal on my phone and your command is work!
but u know , by link2sd or "system app remover " you can find out the app by its icon .
so why i can't remove app by application !
- titanium backup , every time i try to trmove an application by titanium backup , it getting freeze! and force close ( after a while )
- link2sd : when i try to remove an app it says can't mount ...
- system app remover : when i try to remove , a security notification appear ...

so how can i remove an app easily by this applications ?

thank u

Maybe you have to try another root method??
Mine is working without any issue

Seems like those apps you want to use do not have SU permission. Did you install SU and Busybox?

It could sound silly but did you check with root checker that you really have root access?

If yes, another reason that I could think of is you might not grant the SU access when you opening up the TB

the point the makes me wondering is that " root checker" says that you have root permission !!!!!!!!!!!!

just one app worked for me !! " root app delete " 6.9.24 !

but this one not working complietely too . when i try to remove a system app it can't install that , but after that , an option appera and ask me : do you want to force uninstall , i said: yes . then uninstalled !

but i don't know why i can't remove the system app like others !

is that related to any security update ?

As I've said, try rooting your phone by another method. Mine without any problem.

You did not respond or confirm to dabgoo that you have super user and Busybox installed.

Did you install Super user PRO, you need to activate it?

I did not active it a first.

You can get a false positive from root checker. It will say you have root when super user is not installed properly. This happened to me.

Check in the Super user app if Super user is actually granting access to other apps.

Could be a long shot, look under settings /general /security /device administrators and uncheck knox if its checked.

I ran into this prob when trying to remove knox. it could apply to other apps maybe. Dunno, worth a try though.
