Whatever you do, they +will not disappear. Also, in my scenario – the user module was broken – one of two devices never applied +any update, and the other even did not remember most changes. + +The solution is to: + +1. Uninstall all packages that can be uninstalled (except for system) +1. Disable all packages that cannot be uninstalled (mostly because they are bundled) +1. Place an update to the device's root +1.

Of course a backup prior to this is still highly recommended. + +This folder contains an example rsc file managing the actions on the device and an example script +copying the update and firing the rsc. |
