Intent shortcutIntents = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), Main.class);
shortcutIntents.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_ TASK);
shortcutIntents.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEA R_TOP);

Intent addIntent = new Intent();

Try this code for deleting shortcuts:

appShortcutIntent = new Intent();
appShortcutIntent.setClassName("com.pkg.pkgname", "MainActivity");
appShortcutIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);

appIcon = Intent.ShortcutIconResource.fromContext(this, R.drawable.icon);

Intent intentDeleteShortcut = new Intent();
intentDeleteShortcut.putExtra("android.intent.extra.shortcut.INTENT", appShortcutIntent);
intentDeleteShortcut.putExtra("android.intent.extra.shortcut.NAME", getResources().getString(R.string.app_name));
intentDeleteShortcut.putExtra("android.intent.extra.shortcut.ICON_RESOURCE", appIcon);
intentDeleteShortcut.setAction("com.android.launcher.action.UNINSTALL_SHORTCUT");
sendBroadcast(intentDeleteShortcut);

And make sure you are adding permission:

<uses-permission android:name="com.android.launcher.permission.UNINSTALL_SHORTCUT" />
