Younited - how to uninstall [answered]

Uninstallation of the Younited application leaves me with a device that cannot run Android applications anymore. They start and after a short time of displaying the wait symbol they close down automatically. Here is what I do:

  • Long press Younited app icon and press X to remove.
  • Start Android app (e.g. Whatsapp).
  • App cover shortly pops up with the waiting symbol and automatically closes down.

Tried to reinstall Jollas Android support app. Does not work. Reinstalling Younited fixes it but I want to have it removed of course.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

@Matulski@Thaodan - In the Jolla store there is an app called Sailfish Utilities - this has a few options for Android/Dalvik layer; See this article here from Jolla;

If you think it may help, go to Jolla store, search Sailfish Utilities and install, see if it helps fix your problem.

Thank you for your answers. I tried the utilities and rebooting before without any luck. Having said that Markkyboy mentioning the Jolla store gave me the idea of trying to deinstall the app through the store (did not think of it before). That did work. I have no idea if this is an coincidence or not but it did the trick.

I found that the only way to remove the younited app properly was to uninstall then reboot the phone then re-install. I had tried without the reboot step, but this failed. It did leave me with a new unaccessable device in the youunited app, which I had to remove from the desktop application.

All in all not an ideal solution, but this worked for me.

Good point Ryan, sometimes just a reboot helps things along, certainly in between removing and installing again.
