What if I simply want to uninstall an application that I've installed

(1) - yes the other app will still receive broadcasts, expose
providers, services, etc... The choice only happens for calls to
startActivity that hit two or more equivalent activity intent filters.

Thanks JBQ for clarifying the queries.
From the discussion we can conlude that some built-in applications
such as call log, incoming call manager, bluetooth file receiption,

That's not possible. If your application responds to the right
intents, the user will be offered a choice when doing an action that
can be handled both by the built-in application and by your

I do not think you can uninstall system apps (for good reasons).
User applications are installed under /data/app or app-private (which is
writable), while system apps are under /system/app, which is ro.

Your application should not mess with other applications the user has on
their 'phone. You will most likely see a huge user backlash once they

put
Wow, this has to be the single worst idea I have ever heard. Are you
planning to re-install the default music player if I uninstall your
app? Let me guess... your app is so great nobody would ever want to

Great idea!
Uninstall the music app to install your own. Then uninstall the mail
app and install another one. Uninstall the phone app and install

mounted read-only you cannot uninstall them unless you mount this file

uninstalled with adb uninstall... Also, I don't think you can change

Thanks for all the valuable responses. I wasn't aware of the feature
User will be given a choice when doing an action that can be handled
