Remove Onyx screensaver app?

Geremia · 11-07-2023, 07:32 PM

The default Onyx screensaver is interfering with com.better.alarm. What is the name of the Onyx screensaver app? ¿Is it one of the following:

Code:

$ adb shell cmd package list packages -a | grep onyx
package:com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.gestural_onyx
package:com.onyx.dict
package:com.onyx.kime
package:com.onyx.mail
package:com.onyx.android.onyxotaservice
package:com.onyx.igetshop
package:com.onyx.android.production.test
package:com.onyx.latinime
package:com.onyx.android.ksync
package:com.onyx
package:com.onyx.easytransfer
package:com.onyx.kreader
package:com.onyx.floatingbutton
package:com.onyx.appmarket
package:com.onyx.calculator

It is complicated: package com.onyx is launcher + screensaver app.

First, you must install a 3rd party launcher (I recommend Simple Ink Launcher).

Second, screensaver will be generic Android ones from /data/assets/images/. You will need to experiment, I don’t remember how they needed to be rotated.

That one doesn't seem maintained. ReLaunchX seems good.

Thanks. I don't want any screensaver. I'd rather the screen simply go blank or freeze.
Thanks for the help.

Failure [DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR]

Do I need to root it somehow?

Code:

$ adb root
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
* daemon started successfully
adbd cannot run as root in production builds

Can some LineageOS rom run on Onyx Leafs?

No. From here:

Code:

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.onyx

I did “pm disable com.onyx”.

Ah, yes, “pm disable” requires root, but these commands are equivalent.
