What should I do to get rid of the Porn Player App will not uninstall ?

[AC Question]

This app will not allow access to settings

Hi, go into settings, then apps, find the app in "downloaded" and uninstall it from there. Or you could load up the play store and remove it that way, however I'm not too sure the Play Store has many "porn" apps. Did you download this from a third party, i.e. an apk file? if so you will be able to delete the file, which should be found in your download folder.

If all else fails do a factory reset (make sure you back up your data first though)

Hi, I think may be this app have acquired 'Device Admin' right to prevent it from uninstalling. If that is the case, Go to Settings>Security>Device Admin> Turn off the app. Now you will be able to uninstall the app.

I have got the exact problem, the app is hot girls, it has administrative rights and can't be uninstalled, I have tried in checking the app in apps with administrative right but all it does is to lock my phone and make it to black except I close the front case and open it will it on again. Am not at the luxury of doing a hard reset now, is there no way like deleting the app from system/app folder in root or something else but will do the reset as last resort.

Welcome to the forums. You could try the same process after booting your phone into safe mode. This way there a bigger chance that you can uncheck that app under device administrators and uninstall. Tell us how it goes.
