How do I reinstall the /e/ OS Message App?

Using /e/OS Applications

Using ADB I removed the /e/ OS message app for my current user. How do I get that back? I tried the following and got errors:

$ ADB shell CMD install-existing package --user 0 com.foundation.e.message
/system/bin/sh: ADB: inaccessible or not found

$ adb shell cmd package install-existing foundation.e.message
/system/bin/sh: adb: inaccessible or not found

I would expect your second command to work if you are doing this from a PC

adb shell cmd package install-existing foundation.e.message

… but is the error with adb ?

Try

adb devices

this will give clues … if you see adb: inaccessible or not found again you might need to look at your adb install method. As a first guess, you might try

./adb devices

… or are you trying to do this on the device leading to /system/bin/sh: … adb is for work between a PC and the Android device.

Thank you for your reply. I tried again with the second command and it worked. I’m thinking it didn’t like that my phone went to a lockscreen. However, I got out of that and it still didn’t work. So I started all over and made sure my phone didn’t go to lockscreen and the command worked!
