  1. MY Android phone (CyanogenMod, rooted) was hanging out of the blue. Maybe this app tried to update itself? I don't know. But it was hanging only on reboot all of a sudden. So I did this from ADB shell (from Windows plugged in via USB).
  2.  
  3. #METHOD: Uninstall the localcast app MANUALLY using adb shell on Android:
  4.  
  5.  
  6. adb shell
  7. # look for the names of stuf you can mount in /etc/fstab. I thought it was on my sdcard but I guess not? Anyway you can find it here:
  8.  
  9. mount /data
  10.  
  11. # then under "app" So /data/app
  12.  
  13. # I found and ran this
  14.  
  15. rm -rf de.stephandl.localcast-2
  16.  
  17. # then from anywhere (but really delete anything that is localcast this is just the only thing I had...
  18.  
  19. rm -rf /data/data/de.stephandl.localcast/
  20.  
  21. # If you have a a /data/app-private/ directory look in there too and if anything delete it (saw in place I stole instructions: https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/143584/adb-app-uninstall-from-bootloader)
  22.  
  23.  
  24. reboot
