Remove failed apps from iOS

Postby juming » 20 Feb 2017 12:52

Dear all,

I have iphone SE with ios 10.3 public beta 2, and yesterday I try download kodi from chiseacc.com which said that no need to jailbreak to install Kodi.

And I'm download it, with once failed, but succeeded on second try installing Kodi Krypton, but the failed apps still shown as damaged icon (grey) with name like 225961568962406419 on my phone.

I try to delete it's only change to waiting, and if already on waiting, the "x" mark for deletion not available, Try delete the kodi with it's security profile only delete the kodi, not the ghost app, reinstalling also still left the ghost app, going to setting-general-storage-manage storage not list that app on it, so I cannot delete it, but when manage icloud storage it's shown as app that can be backed up, I already set delete and turn off backup for that ghost app still no result.

Try reset (home+power button) several time still no result too, including sign off and sign in apple ID (maybe because I'm not download from appstore).

Try delete invalid icon using 3U toolbox also still have no result, do you have any idea to get rid that icon, without need to reset all and reinstalling iOS and restore all backup ?

Thank you.

Dear,
What is your device's iOS version? could you please offer the screenshot of your home screen to see the invalid icon the name of the number?
And have you tried to install this app again?

Thank you for your information. But this invalid icon exists for how long?

I am sorry to hear that, but it is the issue about iOS 10.3 Beta~ The icon may probably disappear when the public iOS 10.3 release.
Wish you have a good day.

Thank you, by the way today I just get notification ios 10.3 public beta 3, and I'm installing it.

And, just like what you said, the icon disappear after update to latest public beta. So case close, and thank you for assistance. :)
