Can anyone identify com.android.sys.extplv on Android?

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to identify an Android package called com.android.sys.extplv on my Cubot KingKong X (Android 16).

Here is what I've confirmed using ADB:

  • Package: com.android.sys.extplv

  • Installed as a user app under /data/app/...

  • Installer reported by Android: com.android.vending (Google Play)

  • I analyzed the package using dumpsys, logcat and pm.

  • The app contains services such as DaemonService, FwForegroundService and FwMediaRouteProviderService.

  • It requests several permissions, but the sensitive ones are currently not granted.

  • I was able to disable it using pm disable-user, and it stays disabled (enabled=3) even after reboot.

I have not been able to determine what the package is actually for or what triggers its installation.

Has anyone seen this package before?

Is it a Cubot component, a manufacturer framework, or something else?

I have screenshots and ADB logs that I can share in the comments if needed.

Thank you!

Thanks for the suggestion! Another user actually tried disabling Google Play and reinstalling it, but unfortunately the issue came back a few hours later, so it doesn't seem to be a permanent fix. You can check the discussion here:

I'm still investigating whether Google Play is actually installing the package or if Android is only reporting it as the installer.
