I'm trying to share Pandora.apk with my friend who also has an M8. It's just saying "App Not Installed"...BUT every other time I've shared this exact file with him when he's had other devices, it installed perfectly. I'm even able to send him other apk files without an issue - they all install fine. And this particular Pandora apk file is able to be shared/installed with others. Anyways, with him, on his Verizon HTC One M8, it's JUST the Pandora apk that won't work. I think it may have something to do with the 4.4.3 OTA or a certificate issue..?
Yes, he has "Unknown Sources" checked. No, he isn't rooted or anything.
This is just really bugging me!!
Any ideas?

Sorry if this is the wrong section to post in, I'm new to xda. So I have been having a problem with aptoide. Everytime I try to download and install an app it gives me "download failed due to network" error. I have unknown sources checked (of course), and no network issues (as I am online right now). it will work one time if I delete and reinstall the app. It just started happening as I always use aptoide. I am running illusion rom on Samsung galaxy note 2 t889 4.2.2 any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance!

I've been having the EXACT same problem. Every time I try downloading an app it says failed due to network error or something like that. Basically telling me it won't work because I have no network connection but I do! I haven't been able to figure it out. I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling and changing around my settings but nothing has worked. I haven't added anything or done anything different Before this started happening so I don't know what's going on someone please help!!!

Hi, I'm having a problem with my updates in Aptoide. I give update and says "Error apk Not Found"
try this one Tampermonkey script which allows you to download apk and obb directly to pc.
only chrome, maelstrom and opera browser are supported.

Aptiode is NOT allowed!
It is considerd warez!
Havent you all read the forum rules?!
Hello,
First off, I would like to apologize if I am posting this in the wrong thread as I am new to this site. I have always searched this site for answers to questions I have had in the past, but have never had the need to ask for help. However, today is an exception. Every time I try to install this app, I get the error "App not installed". I have read up on this issue and it is caused by a previous installation of the application leaving leftovers behind (the weird thing is that sometimes I get this error for apps that I have never installed before). For the majority of the apps I have had this problem with, I was able to simply navigate to /data/data on my rooted HTC One M8 and delete the folder associated with the app. However, this didn't work with a few apps I have tried recently. I then installed "ZipSigner" and signed the application and tried installing it that way, this way only worked for one of my apps. I'm stuck with this one app though that I can't seem to install. I have already tried making it a system app; however when I reboot and try to load the app, it gives me the application crashed error every time. I have luckypatcher installed also and I tried to install the app from luckypatcher but it also hints that there are leftovers (but I have never installed this app before lol). So idk what to do. I will not do a factory reset because this app isn't worth the time, but I really would like to find out how to solve this error. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.
Thank you!
EDIT: I have also tried adb installing it but that failed also. Another thing I tried was modifying the AndroidManifest.xml to change the name of the App when it installs, but I couldn't find the right code to modify.
Skype will not sign in on my tablet, it gives no error message (or "please try again later").
I am using a "Playtab" brand tablet, model RK026 (Playtab HD 9.0, Kempler Strauss). It's running JB 4.2.2. Skype is version 1.0.0.5388. I figure it just needs to be upgraded. But no, I can't upgrade from Play store; it won't install (something about "wrong signature mismatch"). Tried installing the Skype apk, the device won't allow me to do that either. And as far as I know, it can't be rooted!
Please help me get Skype working again, thanks!
You need to allow install from apk in settings. Unknown places in development setting
Hey everyone, I'm having an issue I hope I can get some help with.
I just installed the latest update on my 6045l model. It's the "Stagefright" update. Anyway, I just tried to install an app from outside the Play Store, but once I tap "install" it gives an error that says "app not installed."
I have "Unknown Sources" checked, I've played around with the security settings, I've even uninstalled an app that I got from the Play Store and downloaded the same apk from a website...it wouldn't install. I also wiped the device's cache partition. I'm not rooted and don't intend to at this time.
Why is this happening? Anyone have an idea that I haven't tried yet? I appreciate the help in advance!
I remember this happened to my on my OnePlus One and the only thing that helped was to restore the phone.
I had this happen with Amazon apps on a tablet. The cause was another app I had installed to adjust screen colors. I turned that app off and then no more problems installing the Amazon apps.
Hi, since the Oreo update I can't find the "Unknown sources" to install APK's freely. I'ts not under "Lock Screen and Security", and I have enabled Chrome in "Applications/Special Access/Install other apps" and I'm trying to install apps from the "Downloads" section of chrome, but it dosn't work this way either.
I was trying to install the Pixel Launcher as seen from here: https://theunlockr.com/2018/03/13/make-samsung-galaxy-s9-look-like-stock-android/
But everytime I try it I get the "<!> Application not installed".
I don't know exactly what says in english, I'm using my phone in spanish.
Any ideas? Thanks!
If you go to Settings-Apps-3 Dots-Special Access-Install Unknown Apps.
They've moved it so only certain apps can install unknown apps
Please help how to fix this problem. This doesn't work, I tried installing Accuweather pro several times. I have the app saved to my Google Drive, I click on the app and I see something called 'Staging App' and then I get this alert ' There was a problem parsing the package'. I currently had an older version of Accuweather pro installed and working fine. I decided to remove the old version and then reinstall it and I received the same alert. FYI the old Accuweather app was installed before the Oreo update.

Have you tried downloading your APP file from Google Drive to your phone then opening the copy on your phone, that should install the .apk
Go to settings on the phone >> apps >> 3 vertical dots at the top right corner >> special access >> install unknown apps >> and there enable the permission from where you are trying to download it.
All thank you,
I found out that you now have to download the app to your phone. Google Drive does not allow you to download and manually install .
Dear sir/madam,
Following your answer, in specific this part, "They've moved it so only certain apps can install unknown apps", perhaps someone could help me out. I use the Firefox Focus browser and this app doesn't show up in the list of apps that are allowed to install unknown apps.
* Does this mean Firefox Focus can't install apps from unknown apps, since it's not on the list?
* And perhaps we can conclude from that it will never be allowed to do so?
* Or would this app not be on this list, because I've never tried installing anything using this browser?
I guess the real question would be, what populates this list?
I hope to hear from you, thanks in advance, all the best.
Form what I've seen, 1st time you try to install apk from an app it asks you if you want to allow it?

That's what I was thinking as well, funny thing is that 'Google Chrome' is in the list and I've never used that browser. Unless it's there, because it's from Google
I have followed the above suggestions and have allowed Chrome to install apps since that's the browser I'm using. The phone says I have downloaded the app but it is not giving me any option to install it? Where did the download go and how can I get it actually installed? This is an app for work.
Edit: Nevermind - I restarted the phone and tried again and it worked. thanks.
