On a Cheap Chinese Android phone ( a honda civic sold to me with the price & specs of a Maserati ) , running plain vanilla android - my apps crash arbitrarily and I seem to think the culprit is a chinese app that shares the same uid:gid aka system with other apps that have this uid:gid. So If I pm disable it will disable my launcher toggle button as well as I cant launch settings . drwx------ 8 system system 3488 2024-08-29 00:32 /data/data/com.auroradroid.softmanager I am rooted. What If I chown it to another non system UID:GID and then disable it. Any idea what happens then in terms of sequelae ?
