App not Installing - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
I tried installing Nova Launcher from the play store, but it just said error -24. What is this? How did it happen and how do I fix this? After, I tried downloading Nova Launcher apk from online, to see if that would do, but it just says package not installed. I've attached some screenshots, and I hope someone can help me!

If clearing Play's cache and data didn't work, try removing/re-adding your Google account. If this isn't the first time you've installed Nova, look in data/app, and delete any vestigial apks that you might find.

Arrghh! I had faced the same problem a week ago... Do what PhilipTD has said and if it doesn't work then there is no option left but to factory reset your n5.
While unintsalling an app (In rarest cases) the old apk file doesn't get deleted from /data/data/ folder. So you have to delete it manually. However, you need root access to get there! If not, then your left with only one thing - "Factory reset"...

Are you rooted ProVickers?

Do you mean from the root of my phone, or from /sdcard ? But either way, there is nothing in them folders Signed out of my account, nothing works. I dont have a clue! Shouldn't need to factory reset, it's just one app, and I'm using apex launcher now as the substitute.

Yeah, you can't see the files in /data/data because you're not rooted.. Believe me, I had searched everywhere looking to fix this but if we are not rooted then factory reset is the only option we have!

Not just sign out, but, rather,
Remove (delete) account:

Then re-add (install) account:

I'll enable root access for ES Explorer, that should help! :sly:

The Nova Launcher apk is, "com.teslacoilsw.launcher-1.apk". Look for that in your "/data/app" folder.

In es go to - device/data/app-lib and delete the folder com.teslacoilsw.launcher then try installing it again

Try installing titanium backup and see whether it shows any signs of Nova launcher?? If so, delete it.
However, I'm afraid that factory reset is the only option left...

(MOD) NEW LINKS! Semi-transparent accuweather widget ( working ICS digital clock too)

http://db.tt/T84CNyD1 This is a semi-transparent stock accuweather widget that matches the digital clock. I DID NOT MAKE THIS, H-KaN DID AND HE IS BRILLIANT. LOOK HIM UP AND HIT THE THANKS BUTTON. I'm using this with KL3 but it may work with others as well. Make sure to make a backup. C&P this into system/app after MAKING A BACKUP OF THE ORIGINAL and then deleting it from system/app.
Edit- IV use these with la3 la4 la6.
UNFORTUNATELY THIS REQUIRES TOUCHWIZ TO WORK.. SO IT WILL WORK WITH ICS ROMS BUT ONLY THE ONES THAT HAVE THE TOUCHWIZ SKINS.. NOT ANY OF THE AOSP.
ENJOY!
http://db.tt/i5sXtMMs
This is an ICS themed Digital Clock that works in all the ICS ROMs.. install it the same way as mentioned above.. just copy and paste into system/app. Change the name from digiclock to digitalclock though.. this will work with ANY ICS ROM.
http://db.tt/TtH2A9jV
This is the stock Samsung DigitalClock that works with ICS ROMs. I'm using it right now with ICS STUNNER 5.0. Copy and pate into system/app. THIS WILL WORK WITH ANY ICS ROM.
FYI AGAIN.. I didn't make these so requests are useless. I simply put 2 and 2 together and thought since we are using galaxy nexus/i9100 ROMs then maybe the Apps from there will work.... what do you know.. they do! I can't find the thread I grabbed the ICS themed click from so I don't know who to give credit too.. but I'm sure he is brilliant and I am VERY thankful!
Hit the THANKS BUTTON if you use any of this!!!

You need to use the pro version of root explorer or you can use adb commands.

Hi, first and foremost you need to get rooted... pretty much anything you will want to use will require root access... I use esfile explorer, its free and IMHO better than root explorer... the file explorers wont access system root files until you root your note and then give the file explorer SU permission. After that, you will go to the system folder and then app folder, and copy the widget, make a new folder on your SD card and paste it in there... then, if you ever want it back, you simply reverse the c&p process.

Worked perfectly. Looks a lot better now!
I use Root Explorer. This was my method of install in case it helps anyone.
1. Download APK
2. Go to root explorer> system> app
3. Make sure it is mounted as R/W (attached screenshot) and press and hold to rename the APK files you are changing by adding .bak (attached screenshot) to the name. This will disable the app rather than deleting it in case you want to re-use it later.
4. Still in root explorer hit the back button and go to SD card>download
5. Find the new apk you downloaded, press and hold choose move.
6. Go back to system> app and select paste.
After that, your new widget will be active.

[Q] Kno App

I have a problem with the Kno app. It did not come preinstalled on my note 10.1 N8000. So, I went ahead and downloaded from the google play store, then the problem. Problem was that I cannot properly use the kno app to its full potential, the pen layer is missing and a whole lot of problems. I called Kno and they told me that the app from the google play store is not optimized for the note 10.1 and I have to get it from the samsung app store, so, I went to the app store but did not find the app there. Right now, I can read books on the kno app from the google play store, highlight, put some post it note and the journal, BUT, for the pen layer and other functions, it's not available. The app is just useless if I cannot write on it because then, it won't be like my textbook because I cannot write my little anecdotes on the sides. Any help would be appreciated. thanks
You will need someone to extract the apk from a rooted note. I would, but I didn't root this tablet yet. It isn't a paid program, so I don't forsee a problem. Although I would expect that updating your Talley to jb, would have added on the program if you didn't have it,.

I already updated to 4.1.1 JB using the germany Rom. It still wasnt there and I had to download from the google play store. When you get to root yours, will you extract it for me? I dont know how to extract apk. Thanks for the info
It's quite a useful app, especially for students! Helps me save backpack space, lol.
Here ya go. Copy to System>App folder and change permissions, or try installing it normally. After you install it, If it isn't working properly, you'll have to edit your build.prop to make it as a Note 8013.

I'm using the official 4.1.2 USA ROM, deodexed on the n8013. The best way to find out is to install it and let us know what happens.

That's a good question xD but I think it has something to do with making the ROM smaller and/or making its components easily accessible. Don't quote me on that >.>

Editing your build.prop will make programs think your device is another device. In this case, it won't have many or any cons since you're just editing it to make it look like another Galaxy Note 10.1 device; very minor change. You want to use a File Manager to goto System and copy build.prop somewhere to your SD Card. For extra safety, make two extra copies. You should also do a ClockWork recovery BACKUP first just in case something goes wrong. I don't think it will though...*crosses fingers* >.>
Open the build.prop on your SD with a text editor like the Dropbox Text Editor. You want to change the following lines to look like this:
ro.product.model=GT-N8013
ro.product.name=p4notewifiue
ro.product.device=p4notewifi
Reboot your device and you should be good to go
If anything goes wrong, restore your backup in recovery or if the device still boots but with errors, copy the original build.prop back to system folder
Need to be rooted first though.
Basically, easiest solution would be someone with a stock ROM, but rooted with titanium backup, extract the program into an apk.

thats actually what I was looking for, someone with the stock rom. Because the people at Kno told me that the problem is that the one from the google play store is not yet optimized for the galaxy note 10.1. He said that the special apps were pre installed on the n8013 galaxy note that are sold here in the US. So, yes, If a kindhearted soul who has a rooted n8013 with the pre-installed KNO textbooks app could upload their apk file, I would forever be in your debt...I really need this to work because my NCLEX exams are coming up and I was hoping that for the review, I don't have to bring like tons of REALLY thick nursing books with me to the review.
I am on the stock ROM, lol. What I posted was the stock n8013 app -_-
Try this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gs4tct7cn5a8unh/KnoProd28[1].apk
That is the exact apk I am using with the S-Pen features. It is 100% stock Samsung. If it doesn't work, it's because you're on the n800, and not the n8013. That's why I said u have to edit ur build.prop. If it works, then good lol.

[APP]Facebook Home 1.0[ROOT/NON ROOT][CHAT HEADS & SMS WORKING]

Hey everyone, since the thread of the pre-release gets commented really quick, i decided to make a new one with a tutorial to make the new Facebook Launcher work... Here we go:
Thanks to MoDaCo for this, this version works both rooted and non-rooted, chat heads working on Messenger app, tested by me.
If you are a supported device in an unsupported country:​
Be sure to have installed Facebook and Messenger, and then install Facebook Home and enable it in Facebook Settings section.
If you are an unsupported device:​
Uninstall all your existing Facebook apps (Home, Messenger and main one), and then install the patched Messenger, Facebook and Home app. Sign into Facebook app and "enable facebook home" should be there for you.
Once again, thanks to MoDaCo for this, i just tested and uploaded files to another host. Everything works, at least for me.
UPDATE: Thanks to theos0o for fixed Messenger app. Now SMS fully works too! Just test.

You tried rebooting? Also, when you press the home key, select fb home and check the "always use this" tab, i had to do that AFTER opening it the first time to make the images appear

Hey everyone, since the thread of the pre-release gets commented really quick, i decided to make a new one with a tutorial to make the new Facebook Launcher work... Here we go:
First of all, install Facebook and Messenger
Now, you need to edit your build.prop in order to make your phone look like a Galaxy Note 2 (ROOT REQUIRED). Find your build.prop using any root file manager, and edit this:
Locate these lines:
Code:
ro.product.model
ro.product.brand
ro.product.name
ro.product.device
ro.product.manufacturer
ro.com.google.clientidbase
And change them to this:
Code:
ro.product.model=GT-N7100
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.name=t03gxx
ro.product.device=t03g
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
ro.com.google.clientidbase=android-samsung
And make a reboot.
Now, uninstall the previously installed Facebook and Messenger apps, and install them again from Play Store, but in the phone, not in browser, make sure to do that.
Open Facebook, log in, and you should see a "Enable Facebook Home" on the bottom of the settings. If you do, congrats, you are doing awesome
Now, install Facebook Home 1.0 (attached), and go to it in the app drawer, and begin using it
Screenshot to proof it's working:
View attachment 1878683
Note: Everything works fine but Messenger. It won't load my SMS/Facebook messages either, still looking for a fix.

bootloops? Maybe you edited your build.prop wrong... Make sure you had a backup before doing it... Works fine on xperia live with walkman and on razr hd... Let me look for other edits
EDIT: Try this on your build.prop
ro.product.model=GT-I9300
ro.product.name=m0xx
ro.product.device=m0

Works for me.
Had a single hangup while rebooting a well, but another hard reset fixed that.
Cool launcher, but very limited and probably going to uninstall at the end of the day, haha.

I think the app is a system app.. First Remove the app using with file explorer having root permissions..
Then install apk.. App not installed error will go..

The problem of app not being installed comes when there is any conflicting app of same signature is there..
Ok then first clear data of the app from setting app- wipe data. then uninstall it..
Restart your phone then try to install the app..
I can't use the clear data option because it's not installed, it doesn't show installed anywhere and I can't find any file relating to bubbleupnp in any of the folders

you can backup almost anything using titanium backup. And for sms, contacts, call logs i will recommend super backup.
so there will be no much difference after restoring all backups.

Mate play store update means..
Go in setting-> apps -> Playstore -> Uninstall updates.
Restart your phone then install your app from playstore..

Or just shut down, remove and reinsert your battery. Make sure to uninstall any apps you don't use to free up space, also uninstall previous versions of the same app currently installed on your device. Double check the apk files you download and be sure they were completely copied or downloaded.
android app not installed
Link doesn't work

New Messaging app request.

Hello I was wondering if anyone who has rooted and is on stock can share the new Moto G messaging app please and thanks, either in apk or zip.
Thanks again!
This would be great.

I would have been glad to but I uninstalled it with Titanium Backup and Titanium won't restore it. Titanium will sometimes do that with system apps. Another idea, can't you just download an image and extract it from that?
Because I'm on a moto e 2015 and my bandwidth is a little limited.

If you don't have a linux box, then you probably wouldn't be able to break it down anyway. I blew linux off my laptop so I don't have it available either. Titanium just hangs when I try to restore it. Now, I'd like to actually have a copy of it if I ever need it in the future.

I don't think either of those is the messaging app. Anyway, the MMS Service surely isn't and 1K is too small for MMS, which I don't think is the right file either. It should be named Messaging 5.1.1.3 at least that was the messenger app on my phone.

NOTE: my bootanimation is Updated one.. stiching with needle boot animation..
i got this from an external website..
Open Root Browser (or your file manager) app and once inside, locate your original boot animation file (bootanimation.zip) in /system/media.
so i made a zip of the whole media folder.. by removing some OGG files in it(else the zip file huge..)
if its the right one , then let me know..
here it is.. View attachment media.zip
Only bootanimation.zip file -- if interested ! but i dont know it is the right one for sure.. View attachment bootanimation.zip
