Android: Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UID_CHANGED]

Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UID_CHANGED]

Today, I tried to install an application from command line and I found this error:
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UID_CHANGED]
After Googling for a while, I found the reason.
This happens when there is application data from older version is still present. To resolve this, clear/delete the following directory:
/data/data/<PACKAGE_NAME>
To do this, open terminal and type the following commands:
adb shell
cd /data/data/
rm -r <PACKAGE_NAME>
exit
Now try to install the application.
Viola.
