Since I realized you *can* downgrade your apps (install lower version over actual (higher) version of app) using android feature "pm install -r -d file.apk" yesterday, I got time and wrote small and simple app which does everything for you. Just pick APK and click on Install APK. That's it!

Amazing job!!
I am gonna try to run Themer on ICS now. I hope that it should work now.
EDIT: I tried it on my Magicon Mpad 7, It said Install successful but I can't find it on my App Drawer?
did you read OP? Looks like you didn't. Yes, app shown "successfully installated" because if you use this app how you should, it works. And I don't except that users will do crazy experiments
With or without this app you can't install app which requires 4.1 on device with 4.0.
Thanks I'll test it....Good idea

GREAT IDEA!!
Didn't work with the Google keyboard for me though
So here is a thought, is there a repository for older versions of the free android apps anywhere? That would be a good coupling for an app like this!
Is Google play suggesting to upgrade your downgraded app or it doesn't realize that app was downgraded?

Google Play will suggest upgrading. You essentially just installed an older version of the app in all terms.
You could achieve similar function by backing up your data, deleting the app, re-installing an older version, restoring your data. Obviously it would be longer, though.
Thanks! Very useful to see a easy way to downgrade apps like Minecraft PE and whatever,like Twitter. Very very very grateful.

Best app since "app installer" was created.
Seams somebody made a paid app out of your free app.

Guys,
Just now I found a nice application which is so useful for Rooted & Specially Unrooted devices.
My friend just bought MMX A110 & that is Unrooted. I simply said you wont b able to send installed apks which is usually installed in root of device.
I stunned when he send me this application from his root via just a tap. OMG, it is great.
How to install it..??
Just download it from play store & install like normal APK.
How does it work..??
It just scan all apks in both internal(Including ROOT) & external SD. When all apks scanned (take 4-5 Sec) then just tap which app you want to send & touch send button.

Download via Play store -> Link is here
Nice find! Buddy its better if u remove the apk and only give the link. U never know regarding redistribution rights even if its free.
System Apps Installer by the same dev is also great!

Yup buddy, redistribution is something different coz its free then we can distribute it by our own in a community. but as you are saying, i m removing it. BTW The application you are saying is also same as this one. correct me if I m wrong..??
Actually there are 2 diff apps by the same dev, one is that u posted and the other is that I mentioned. In playstore the dev has put screenshots of both apps in the same app..

Is this better than Titanium Backup convert to system app option?
And should we use this option on some apps? Its usefull for phones with low memory i think?
And what you guys think about MyAppSharer? Its like Bluetooth App Sender but better I think.

Thanks for sharing. Care sharing if you findout anything else new??
I tried to listout the changes.
My phone has updated to 4.1.6 but I don't have the synch option for data.
Is this issue specific for the Galaxy S4?
My phone automatically updated to 4.1.6 and now I cannot see featured apps and content. Why is that so?

I can't install g+ app on my p500 anymore. I tried on CM 10.1.6, 10.2 and 11, but same iusse: "Plaese re-install app" or FC.
Yesterday I came back on CM 10.1.6 (4.2.2) after a week on CM11, so clean installation, full wipe. In system/ there is 45MB and in /data 56 MB
Before december, on CM 10.1.6 g+ works fine. I try to install old buil app, but not lucky.
Anyone has same issue?

I'm having this bug since the dec 2013 update.. its reassuring to know that its not a problem with my phone since more people have been reporting this. hope the next update fixes it. My screenshot says the same. The app FCs immediately after launch. i did clean re-installs multiple times on internal as well as on SD card.
Now i'm using the web version!!

Root App Store:
Hi , I like much of root Apps ( DroidSheep , PryFi ) because that I want to make an app about it , but first can somebody help me to collect much of root apps . I think it was so great if we have an app , and at this app we find much of root apps ( some that we would otherwise never find ) .

See the little magnifying glass? Play Store has one too. If you use it to search for ROOT you'll find quite a few, at least 250 apps. So that would be your starting point.
Yes I know , but I mean apps that isn´t in Play Store as LuckyPatcher
some great ideas ..?
Freedom. DaxAttack. If I think of others, I will let you know.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk
dSploit, definitely
Great idea
This app has a ton of potential! ????
Let me know when its finished I'll help beta test it
I don't like the idea because nobody knows if the apps are legit, infected or modded and of course you need the permission of the original developer to host it outside the original stores. If you really have all permission to do (I don't think so) you need something to verify that the apps are okay, the problem is here that if you show on the app or server the md5 or signature or whatever people still need to download it and check against this to really get an proof that all is clean. I not trust servers or unknown people and of course nothing with ad or ads in there server names (adfoc).
Hi
new Version and it is now on the Play Store http://goo.gl/zuhZTe

Hey all,
I just saw that now you can have the Google dialer side loaded and working on your s7 without root, and I did just that with the latest version on a EU s7, but it just gives me after installing : "app not installed" and I can close it only.
Any suggestions or advise how I can put the Google dialer app on my phone?
Thanks to everybody in advance for helping!
PS: no root.

I would suggest installing a custom recovery, because you will need to install a zip to make the dialer working. Or you could just install it by adb. Anyways, here's the link to the zip: https://mega.nz/#!qRVXDJCQ!iufLrFVVaENdTaRNh22o05jYncp4ocVT-YDIRUeiI4Q
Works perfectly fine if you don't install it as a system app.
I've had it installed from the time it was available from the play store for a very short while.
I used package disabler to disable stock contacts app from samsung.
Rocking google dailer without root ever since. You can also just install the apk (if its not available on xda labs, use apkmirror?)
Hi,
Same issue for me.
I have downloded from apkmirror, but it says app not installed.
I have stock phone (ROM+Recovery)
Any Guess ?
Thx

i have the same problem with contacts.. some contacts are shown with name others only number (like they weren't saved)..
i think it's something common with google dialer, but still i can't find any solution

Yes I did, and I am using it, I even installed it before the phone app.
I gave manually access to google phone, contacts, photos and calendar apps to all things they wanted, will see if that changes anything when ppl call
Sadly that did not work either, I'm open to suggestions honestly
Try disabling the samsung contacts app. Cause its working perfectly like that for me. Don't know what else is different.

Found the solution on reddit. One reddit user posted this version here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2PpNFmDrygiOThDcmhxdy1PRGM/view and it works perfect showing all contacts and not bugs found so far
