** First time installing as expected **

capabilities.setCapability("noReset", false);
capabilities.setCapability("fullReset", true);
androidDriver = makeAndroidDriver(serverUrl, capabilities);

** Here also uninstalling even fullReset= true and noReset=false**

capabilities.setCapability("noReset", true);
capabilities.setCapability("fullReset", false);
androidDriver = makeAndroidDriver(serverUrl, capabilities);

** for third time and next onwards, it is not uninstalling **

capabilities.setCapability("noReset", true);
capabilities.setCapability("fullReset", false);
androidDriver = makeAndroidDriver(serverUrl, capabilities);

** When i change capabilities fullrest=true then reinstalling as expected.but again same as above scenarios **

capabilities.setCapability("noReset", false);
capabilities.setCapability("fullReset", true);
androidDriver = makeAndroidDriver(serverUrl, capabilities);

This will work fine . Since I am guessing that AUT(Application Under Test) is getting fresh installation and moreover appium is started with new session

** Here also uninstalling even fullReset= true and noReset=false**

For this

fullReset=true : Reset app state by uninstalling app. This will also remove the app after the session is complete.

noReset=false : In your case it will not matter . Since if you start again your app .It will be a fresh installation so by default noReset=true.

** for third time and next onwards, it is not uninstalling ** [Which is correct only] For this

fullReset:false : So App will not get removed or its gonna clear its state

noReset:true : It will not re-install your AUT but it will reset app state before this session

** When i change capabilities fullrest=true then reinstalling as expected.but again same as above scenarios **

For this: Not able to identify your issue .
