@AndroidDeveloperLB
i was able to make the old script work.

The first thing you need to do is to get the aapt binary from this repo

note aapt2 is the newer version of appt, but it is slower in parsing the data from apk files only use aapt2 when you get errors with aapt

the repo will find android 9 and android 11 choose the closest one to the version of your android device
copy aapt to /data/local/tmp if you plan to use adb shell
or
copy appt to data/data/com.termux/files/home if you use termux
then
chmod -R 770 *
for termux you need to give it a special permission using adb
adb shell pm grant com.termux android.permission.DUMP

and lastly there will be three versions of the script
the first will be aapt list all apps names
the second appt list app based on permission usage
the third will be appt2 list all apps

Remember to change appt or appt2 to the path of your files (it is the second line in the script)

aapt list all apps names

#!/system/bin/sh
aapt=/data/local/tmp/aapt/aapt
pm list packages | sed 's/^package://g' | while read line; do 
    path=$(pm path $line | sed 's/^package://g'); 
    label=$($aapt d badging $path  | grep 'application: label=' | cut -d "'" -f2);  
    printf "app $label having package name $line\n"; 
    printf "\n"; 
done 

appt list app based on permission usage

#!/system/bin/sh
aapt=/data/local/tmp/aapt/aapt
pm list packages | sed 's/^package://g' | while read line; do [[ `dumpsys package $line | grep 'android.permission.INTERNET'` ]] && echo "$line"; done | while read line; do 
    path=$(pm path $line | sed 's/^package://g'); 
    label=$($aapt d badging $path  | grep 'application: label=' | cut -d "'" -f2);  
    printf "app $label having package name $line\n"; 
    printf "\n"; 
done  

appt2 list all apps

#!/system/bin/sh
aapt2=/data/local/tmp/aapt2/aapt2
pm list packages | sed 's/^package://g' | while read line; do 
    path=$(pm path $line | sed 's/^package://g'); 
    label=$($aapt2 dump $path | grep -A 1 string/app_name | grep -o -m 1 '".*"' | cut -d '"' -f2);  
    printf "app $label having package name $line\n"; 
    printf "\n"; 
done 

adb shell 'pm list packages' | sed 's/.*://g'

thx worked well

What is the command that shows the list of user-installed applications on the Android Phone?

pm list packages -3

(as in 3-rd party)

That fortunately requires root to work

@Anubioz Thank you for your reply. However, my phone is not rooted. I will look for an alternative solution and let you know if I find anything.

For anyone wondering about full command using adb adb shell pm list packages -f worked for me

Yo... it "works", because that it the CMD to use. xD
