[Q] APK files

Lately I've been having problems with installing apk files from my sd card. I connect my HTC Desire Z to the pc, copy the apk file to my sd card, disconnect my phone properly from the pc, go into my sd card using es file explorer, locate the apk file i just copied, try to install it but it says Parse error: There is a problem parsing the package.
what the hell do i do??

Sounds like your microSD card is about to go out. Copy the contents to your pc, then do a full reformat of the card and put the stuff back. That might help temporarily but if it really is about to die you'll need a new one at some point obviously.

I did a full reformat of my sd card last night, put everything back in to the card an then today it just effed up again

Have you tried the Easy Installer ap from the Market? It's free. It helps when you install apk from SD card. There is also a possibility that the apk you downloaded was corrupted. Try downloading it from a different site.
Hope this help.

i tried that, at first i put in 1 app and opened it using the app u insisted, but then when i put in other apps, nothing worked as in they werent even there listed

[Q] SD Card (External) not seen in CWM

I previously had bricked my Xoom and was able to get it back to stock (with help from the forum). I then rooted it and was going to try flash BRD's Kernal, 3.1 update, bootloader, ect. I DL'd the files and saved them to my SD card. Popped the SD card in. Rebooted into Clockword and could not see my external SD to flash from. I went into the advanced setting in CWM and checked to see if the SD card was mounted... It wasn't. I don't even have the mount/unmount SD option anymore.
I went to the forums and kept getting looped back to the Clockwork Mod 3.2.0.0 thread. Is there a way to push this file through ADB? I'm new to ADB so I don't know if it's even possible. If so which file? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Just to add to the post, I can't see the external card anywhere. Not in the file manager or on my PC, via USB. I've formatted the SD card in my Droid 2 and my PC. That's all that I can think of to add to this.

You can push the recovery in fastboot. Make sure your CWM is version 3, not the version 4. Get it from the forums, in fact the link in my sig for all 20 stock images has everything you need.

if you loaded 4.0.0.4 already and if you have rom manager you can scroll to the bottom and choose "All ClockworkMode Recoveries" and choose 3.0.2.5, then go to thread i linked and flash that..
Thats how far my knowledge goes
Hope it helps
I've copied Turkawa's post as an alternative to pushing files through adb. If you go the adb route you need to download all of the necessary files on your computer. Also make sure to only flash the image file (.img) not a zip file through adb.
Good luck!

If you can't see your SD card anywhere that is problem number one. If you have a SD card in your droid2, put it in the xoom while it is powered off and boot into clockwork. If you can read the card you have narrowed your problem to the card itself. Try using Panasonic SD formatter (Google for the free app) to format the card and try again.

Root means on the SD card. Not in any folder of the SD card. So when you computer reads the card and u double click to enter it, that's the root of ur SD card.
So:
My Computer>Drive name of SD card>Enter it <--- that is the root of ur SD card.
