[Q] Installing APK and getting a parse error - HTC Sensation

Hi,
Ive had a search of this forum for this but it doesnt seem as though anyone else has had this issue.
I have got a Sensation XE which is compeltely stock, S-ON, no root, nothing.
So, i paid for the humble bundle which is a charitible organisation which lets the users pay as much as they like for a few games with most of it going to chairty.
Because they are offering the downloads I have to download APKs from them, through their app which wasnt a problem for the first APK i downloaded.
I came to the others and now I am getting the error: "Parse Error. There is a problem parsing the package".
I then tried to install an APK which I had on my PC which worked fine on my LG Optimus 2X but I get the same error.
I was wondering if anyone else was had encounted this error and knows whats going on?
Thanks
Sedge.
EDIT: I have tried downloading the APKs a number of times either on my phone or on my PC and I still get the same problem.

T-mobile (US) HTC HD2 installation failure?

I have the HTC HD2 recently released by t-mobile (3/24/10). Everytime I download and try to install a cabinet (.cab) file, I am greeted by the screen that reads (Installation Unsuccessful) Any suggestions for getting this to work? I have tried downloading from different sources.
sounds like ur installing apps that wasnt made for winmo 6.5
try installing BsB onto the device and turning on the unsigned apps button... hope it works Good Luck...
also a lil heads up, when askin a question alway let people know what ur doing what u hav and what u need, Device ?
Rom ?
app trying to use ?
and a bref descript of the problem
Thanks for the all the advice. I'll take that into consideration.
CABS meant for this device
I'm having the same issue. I flashed the ROM to the new T-MO version and worked great. Installed some CABS that I had installed before and suddenly I get this error on any CAB I try to install. Regardless if it is VIA Windows Marketplace, copied to the device by usb, sent over by WMDC, or downloaded directly on the device and saved. No prompt where to install, just pops up with installation failed. And some of these CABS I know for a fact work. It's got to be some kind of security issue I would think, but I'm not getting any prompt or warning.
I've scoured the web the last week and lots of people with this issue, but no solutions.
Suggestions?
HTC HD2 Installation of update
I am guessing you are speaking of the latest rom update put out by TMobile?
If so, go to TMobile here ----> http://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm54430.xml?
and then follow the instructions as given. I had a problem with my H2 then did this update and all is well.
Good Luck!
Certificates?
That's what I already did! And it was working fine, I was installing CABs, etc. Now nothing will install. I know that I can always do a hard reset, but something caused this problem and I can't keep hard resetting forever. I'm not a newbie here to flashing roms of working with windows mobile either. I did notice today though that under security/certificates there are no certificates now. There were lots of them installed from the factory with the original rom, but none now. I don't know if the rom flash wiped them and didn't reinstall, or something else did. It worked so I never checked after flashing. I suppose I could find someone else with a HD2 and have them send me copies of all there certs.

US T-Mobile HD2 installation problem
Gosh, i never thought a lot of people would be having installation problems on their T-mobile HD2 like me.
I have the same unit, just had it last June 2010.
And i just couldn't get to install any third party application on it!
but im able to install apps if and only if i downloaded it on Windows Market place using my phone. Any other method aside from the the Windows Market Place in my phone wouldn't do. Like if i downloaded an application, any application, in my pc and transferring it to my phone through Microsoft's active sync or disc drive transfer and when i try installing it, it just wouldn't install?
i couldn't even install .Net Framework 3.5 on it to hoping to be able to use CHT or any other interesting apps requiring the framework. i got the .Net Framework Downloaded it frm here forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=625483 and also here forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591784
i also couldn't even get to install recommended drivers like Chainfire's HD2/Leo 3D Driver Patch. As you can see, i really couldnt install any requirement apps to get the good progs and stuffs =/ and i've downloaded a lot of apps already hoping to see them running on my hd2, but only to be turned down for they couldn't seem to get installed =/
my unit is HTC HD2 from US, originally a T-mobile and has these specifications:
OS version: 5.2.21892 (21892.5.0.89)
Manila version: 2.5.20121412.2
ROM version: 2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE
ROM date: 04/28/10
Radio version: 2.10.50.26
Protocol version: 15.39.50.07U
this is a Leo having a flash size of 1024
i sincerely hope you'd help me diagnose the problems properly =/ Thank you sooo much for the help then masters.
and oh one more thing, having said my phone's specifications, is it ok to try flashing it using this thread and a few ROMS on it? i've been reading carefully these thereads

gapps not installing, "installation aborted"

Q!
Apologies if this has already been resolved, I did a search but did not find my exact problem.
I screwed up, I installed the ROM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092332 but I failed to install the GAPPS zip the first time.
So I tried to install it again with gapps but I keep getting a "Verification failed Installation aborted" message.
So then I downloaded the stock HTC ROM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=804692 but I get the same error message.
Can somebody tell me how to either get this ROM to work with gapps or go back to stock? I need to learn to read the entire post before assuming every ROM installs the same.
Thanks for reading, and thanks for your time.
Download the correct gapps package and make sure the download is corrupted.
EDIT: isn't, lol fail
Thanks. I was not able to find a gapps package that worked. I dl'ed a signed version successfully but I couldn't get past the setup screen. It just was not working.
So I went with CM7 instead and I actually like it a lot better. I've got my Google apps and everything's running smooth. Yay for ROMs.
CM7 is very sexy... runs on my Wildfire S but the WIFI is broken on my specific model right now *sadface*
I think your problems lead you in a better direction at least!

[Q] JellyBam Installation Problem!

I am a new member to XDA, though I have been to this site countless times before, and finally thought it was about time to join. I am not a noob to rooting or flashing or any of that-though I am still learning.
I have come across a problem and need help. I have a T-Mobile SGS III SGH-T999 and was running 4.1.2 Axis M rom, but I decided try something else. I've been searching for a good debloated stock touchwiz rom with the latest update, but until I find one I wanted to try something I found called JellyBam. Right now I'm back to 4.1.1 stock-I made a rooky mistake and had to reroot, just fyi.
I downloaded the latest JellyBam from get.jellybam.com and flashed it but all I got was, "status (7) error, Installation Aborted". I found out that "status (7)" happens when the phone checks to make sure the rom is compatible and the way to fix it is delete the line of coding above "show progress" in the "updater-script" file that causes the phone to check for compatibility and rezip the package and flash it. When I flash it now, it doesn't check for it to be compatible, which is good, so it goes straight to install. This time I don't get the "status (7) error" but it still aborts installation and I can't find out what's wrong.
I stopped trying to figure out how to get it to work. I just couldn't figure out what's wrong, I kept getting "status 7" and then "status 6"-and I have no clue what that one is-so I went with a rom my father used and I love it. I went with the inFAMOUS rom.
I would still appreciate some help with that whole "status 6/7" problem if anyone knows. Also, if anyone knows of a good debloated touchwiz rom that has the latest 4.2.2 or 4.2.1 tell me cause I've been searching for one and can't find one I like. I would like one that gets the latest updates.
Thanks.

Having trouble updating to 4.4.2

I'm on 4.4 right now and I just reviewed the ota but when it finished downloading, it went stock recovery and just said "error". Obviously I was pissed so I then went the adb root but that wouldn't work either. Something about it not being able to find "update.zip" when it is clearly in the same folder. After that I decided to flash a custom recovery, not clockwork but the other one. Whenever I try to go that route it still says it failed. I have been looking at posts and none have helped so far.
I am rooted, I don't have busybox/xposed, I am using art. I read something about having to have all of the stock apps. I had a modded playstore on here but I didn't work so I re-download one and installed it, could that have anything to do with my problems? And if so, where can I find another playstore app?
also, this is what it says in the custom recovery: /system/framework/core-libert. Jar unexpected E:Error executing updater in zip I tried googling but to no avail.
That modded play store might have changed some system files that prevent the update. You can try flashing one of the stock 4.4.2 Roms available in the android development forums. I used the one by bigxie.
