Download that Terminal Emulator from the Play Store and type in the following commands:

  • su – this command obtains Super User privileges for the Terminal Emulator App
  • mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblk3 /system
  • ls/system/app - this command lists all the apps installed on your device
  • rm /system/app/<app name> – use this command to remove any app you want
  • mount -o remount,ro /dev/mtdblock3 /system

ofc you can but depends.. app type and/or your Android OS.

Uninstalling Downloaded Apps (without terminal method)
[LIST=1]
  • Open the Settings app. You can delete any app that you've downloaded using the Settings app on your device. ...
  • Tap "Apps" or "Applications." ...
  • Swipe to the "Downloads" tab. ...
  • Find and tap the app that you want to delete. ...
  • Tap the "Uninstall" button.
[Important!] DO NOT remove system apps!
[Note!] Terminal method is for rooted devices only. You can install Terminal for Android but you can't use if your phone is not rooted.
