ADB permission issue in startup

[ollipm]

Hi,
i have been trying to get my appium to work after updating appium-uiautomator2-driver from 3.0.5 to 3.5.5 but once i try to open any session i get error:
"... shell cmd package list packages' exited with code 255'; Command output: Exception occurred while executing 'list': java.lang.SecurityException: Shell does not have permission to access user 10 ..."

The error comes comes after:
"[ADB] The installed 'io.appium.uiautomator2.server' package is older than '.appium\node_modules\appium-uiautomator2-driver\node_modules\appium-uiautomator2-server\apks\appium-uiautomator2-server-v7.0.13.apk' (167 < 175 or '7.0.5' < '7.0.13')'"

The phone used is Samsung Galaxy S23
And here are the capabilities i tried to use in appium inspector:
{
"platformName": "Android",
"appium:automationName": "UIAutomator2",
"appium:platformVersion": "14",
}

Managed to get this working by setting a appium:skipServerInstallation to True but is there any other solution to this?

Please provide the full server log.

I guess the issue might be related to the fact the server package has been installed from another user account. Try to reset the driver install as a possible workaround

[mykola-mokhnach]

it looks like the reset script uses the same logic that the driver itself.
You may still remove components manually:

adb uninstall io.appium.uiautomator2.server
adb uninstall io.appium.uiautomator2.server.test
adb uninstall io.appium.settings

Removing those components and then trying again had no effect and the logs:

Checked google for similar issues and it looks like the issue has to do with profiles that are installed/activated on the device.

You may try to switch the profile to the default one (user 0) or use a different device that does not have such restrictions to run automated tests.

Yes i have a work profile set, i tried to use the uiautomator2 capability appium:userProfile and set it to 0 but no effect
