How to remove/delete system app

[ascanio1]

How do I completely remove or completely stop/deactivate a phone system app called "MUSIC" [EDIT] without ROOT?

It has the irritating habit of playing a random song from my memory of I press my Bluetooth button by accident. I removed all permission, notifications, etc and I even designated a different App as default music App but it still starts playing in my earphone by accident, very often.

Huawei Mate 9 MHA-L29 (Android 8.0.0)

If you have a Huawei, you won't have a Samsung Music app as a system app. Interesting that you can't at least disable it though...

Doouh, I made a mistake. I meant Huawei system app. Sorry. I will correct the OP

If the Disable button is dimmed, all you can do is root and uninstall it. You can't uninstall system apps on an unrooted phone.

Can I stop/block the app without rooting?

Generally no. You could try Greenify to hibernate the app, but I'm not sure if that works on an unrooted phone.

Thanks. I'll try and revert. Does anyone know if there is a good Huawei forum? The only one that I found was the official community but no one replied.

I installed the app but, unfortunately, music still starts by accident.

If you're confident that I can block or delete this irritating app by rooting, then I'll research how to root.

Check to see if you phone has a "smart settings" section.
Often times there is a "When bluetooth is activated" run this app.

Thank you for the idea! I checked in "smart settings", in "sounds", "display" and Bluetooth but I couldn't find anything related.

But, your are right, this option (enable or disable Bluetooth activation of the Music App) should be somewhere...

But where... I need someone familiar with this Huawei Music App!

In my LG V30 running Android 8.0, the needed setting seems to be at
settings > general > smart settings > when BT device is connected

Thank you but our menu are different (I don't have "general"). I looked into both the Bluetooth settings and into the smart settings but there is no such selection.

I think Huawei has different menu/options

Can anyone help me stop the App from starting accidentally?
