Hello Everyone,
I hope you all are good,
So I see some on you wondering about how to uninstall, reinstall, install, pull, enable and disable apps for the watch, so I decided to make this thread to address these different scenarios, this is based on test of users, if there is any incorrect command, let me know and I will update the thread...

Requirements: ADB (to execute adb commands)...

~~~ Enabling Watch4 ADB ~~~​

The first thing you need to do is enable the watch developer mode by going into watch settings then about and tap the version many times till it says switched on, inside developer mode enable ADB, it will enable ADB Wi-Fi, if it doesn't, enable then go to Wi-Fi and make sure that Wi-Fi is connected to the same network of the PC, head back to developer mode and you will see under ADB Wi-Fi IP address...

~~~ Running ADB & Connecting to the Watch4 ~~~​

Watch is ready for some ADB action and adventure lol, on pc start PowerShell or CMD inside ADB folder by holding down SHIFT and right clicking on empty area:
1629877310549.png
or if you have cmd-here.exe, run it...

type the following:
adb connect <IP>
(if it's your first time, check your watch for RSA authentication and allow the PC to connect)
Now here is the list of scenarios...
~~~ Scenario 1: Installing Apps ~~~​
Place the apk in adb folder then type:
adb -s <IP> install <apk-name>.apk
once you are done disconnect:
adb disconnect
~~~ Scenario 2: Uninstalling System Apps ~~~​
Be very careful, don't uninstall vital system apps, uninstall apps that you see on the watch home screen drawer or watch widgets...
Enter Shell mode typing:
adb shell
then type:
pm list packages
Find the packages you want to remove then type for each package
pm uninstall -k --user 0 <package-name-to-uninstall>
once you are done exit and disconnect:
exit
adb disconnect
~~~ Scenario 3: Disabling/Enabling System Apps ~~~​
Enter Shell mode typing:
adb shell
then type:
pm list packages
Find the packages you want to:
  • Disable then type for each package
pm disable-user --user 0 <package-name-to-disable>
  • Enable then type for each package
pm enable --user 0 <package-name-to-enable>
once you are done exit and disconnect:
exit
adb disconnect
~~~ Scenario 4: Reinstalling/Restoring System Apps ~~~​
Enter Shell mode typing:
adb shell
Find the package you want to restore (thanks to @adfree)

Hi, thanks for that, will be helpful.

Has anyone tested disabling samsung pay? Or any other system apps? Just curious if its safe to disable it..

Thanks

SHM is a system app and has been disabled, no issues...

You can try disabling Samsung pay, the expected scenario is the watch will call Samsung pay, it doesn't find it returns "no supported app found" or "enable Samsung pay?" Or take you to the playstore or (last or I promise lol) it will switch to another pay method...

Uninstalling is the dangerous command...

I apologise for dumb question: i always wanted to play with adb (for uninstalling and disabling apps) on my phones...but i didn't have the guts or knowledge. Can i use this guide (to the letter) to do it on my phone?
Including using the minimal adb zip you provided?
I intend to uninstall stuff when my fold3 and watch 4 classic lte arrive
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No question is dumb and yes you can use the guide as a reference, just keep in mind that packages of phone are different than the watch, also, on the phone you can disable system apps but you can't uninstall them like the watch (as far as I know) and finally, no need to do adb install on the phone because it's a direct install...

Unless when you said use it on the phone as in execute adb commands on the phone for the watch, yes it will work too...

Will disabling or uninstalling apps cause the watch not to take OTA updates, or any updates to the system at all? I have my TWP3 debloated, and it works with items uninstalled/disabled etc.

You'll still get OTA updates and you might see things you debloated get installed again, depending on what the update has

Hey finally a topic I was looking for !

I have a question. Is that the same as ADB Minimal Fastboot ?

I will buy the GW4 very soon and since I am in China, therefore buying the Chinese version that doesn't come with the Playstore, I was planning to install the Playstore APK on it.

Then I Googled and found a post about using ADB to install APK from PC to WearOS and I found that some use ADB Minimal ADB Fastboot to do that. Reading this post it looks the same, but I haven't used ADB so I can't be sure for sure

[EDIT]

I just click on the ADB link and saw that it was ADB Minimal Fastbook, my bad I haven't checked on the link first. Well awesome nice and thanks for the post!

Do you guys think that I can install the Playstore APK on the GW4 (China version doesn't have Playstore and I work in China now) ?

Here when you say "type the following: adb connect <IP>", where do I find the IP I should replace "IP" with?

Same question for "adb -s <IP> install <apk-name>.apk"

Sorry if the question sound stupid, I haver used the command window, I'm a total novice

On your watch. When you enable adb over wifi, it'll show you your ip address. Something like 192.168.1.1:5555

    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    from Android 7.0 on (dunno if its still effective, havent tried in ages, usually better handled via much better programming internals in later Android or GUI options) it was:

    Code: 
    cmd appops set <package_name> RUN_IN_BACKGROUND ignore

    where package name is xxx.xxxxx.xxxxx not its "friendly name"

    you can get package names (output to file) any number of ways including

    Code: 
    adb shell pm list packages > myapps.txt

    OR for just 3rd party apps (much shorter list)

    Code: 
    adb shell pm list packages -3 > myapps.txt

    feel free if on linux to drop the output to fiel and | grep <part of packagename>

    Thanks a lot, haven't tried it yet to confirm.
    You can use grep on Windows as well with Git bash or something similar installed

    Some icons may be hard-coded and some apps can be re-installed/re-enabled by the system if there is a logic for it, this means the app is vital/core app, that you can't change because if you try to enforce removal and prevent system for reinstalling, you'll end up bricking the watch and need to reset it to make it functional...

    I believe the phone dialer is a core app, so maybe just drag and drop it at the bottom if you don't like it and in galaxy wearable make it not ring in notifications...

    Not sure about galaxy store, it should be treated as Playstore and should be removable 🤔...

    Enter Shell mode typing:

    pm list packages
    Find the package of interest then type
    pm path <package-name>
    this returns the path of the apk package location, exit shell

    now pull it typing:
    adb pull <path-to-apk-package> <package-name>.apk
    you have pulled the apk into the adb folder...

    I have one thing to say, sorry for the caps in advance, but I got to do it
    TURN OFF ADB ON WATCH​
    otherwise it will drain your watch battery...

    Here's a dump of every APK on my GW4, even the non-system apps(why not?).

    Keep in mind, some of the apps are now split-apks. I've made those apps individual folders, and you'll need to cd into them and then use adb install-multiple base.apk split1.apk split2.apk etc, in order to install those apps. (I hope somebody ports SAI to Wear OS soon....)

    Ok, so I disabled Bixby agent+wakeup yesterday (instead of uninstalling like before...) and no problems since. I can use all the other functions just fine, and GPS/WiFi toggle as expected. All good.

    When I get my watch and see that I have it, I will pull and upload it for you...

    I apologise for dumb question: i always wanted to play with adb (for uninstalling and disabling apps) on my phones...but i didn't have the guts or knowledge. Can i use this guide (to the letter) to do it on my phone?
    Including using the minimal adb zip you provided?
    I intend to uninstall stuff when my fold3 and watch 4 classic lte arrive
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse
    No question is dumb and yes you can use the guide as a reference, just keep in mind that packages of phone are different than the watch, also, on the phone you can disable system apps but you can't uninstall them like the watch (as far as I know) and finally, no need to do adb install on the phone because it's a direct install...

    Unless when you said use it on the phone as in execute adb commands on the phone for the watch, yes it will work too...
