This Market is for people with 480x800+ devices that weren't properly rendering the new market. APK is attached. Works great on Nexus S and Vibrant.
It may work on 2.1 and 1.6 but I haven't tried.
Install like a normal apk.
I installed but just sais application not installed. Are there other steps that you need first. I am running cynogenmod 6.1.1

Try clearing the market cache and see if that helps (Menu/Settings/Applications/Manage applications/Running or All/Market/Clear cache). Maybe also wiping the Dalvik cache.
Whenever i installed and i opened it says server connection error, retry or cancel. Can anyone help me?

I get same error here. Nexus s
wiped cache/ rebooted
Nope still didnt work. I wiped both.
Glitches are gone, but it just deletes itself after a while or a reboot, this is maybe an issue with gingerbread, there might be a gingerbread only version, who knows...

I installed the 2.2.6 unofficial, and uninstalled it, went back to regular.
The next day, I found out it updated by itself!
It works maaaad (edit) OK, but I see that main page's sliding apps thing takes like half screen :S
But the rest I like it.
Edit: When it's restarted after killed by task manager, it starts reeeeaally slow!

Installed this via Bonsai4all 1.0.3. Definitely noticed the difference on my Epic. Used to have very slow loading issues and everything transitions in a flash now.
Strange...I saw that I already had this version installed when I tried to launch the apk.

Hello,
Anyway when I first got my one s I was able to install swype onto it without any problems, I like it A LOT more then the default junk on it. So last night I wanted the new tmob update, and since I had root and SU I had to do all the voodoo to unroot and relock my phone before hitting it with the RUU.
So now I got it updated and then got root and SU back, so I reinstall all my stuff onto it. I get to installing the swype beta onto it, but this time I get an error saying "error: this screen size is not supported. Check beta.swype.com/android/faq for a list of supported sizes"
Did the screen dpi get changed with the new update or did I miss something?
I think I maybe wrong, I am on 1.53.531.16 710RD which I don't think is the newest tmob. Also when I check for update it's not finding one.
The new Swype beta installer should work. Get it from the official site. They fixed that bug.

It is my understanding that you need to do the 3 dot menu mod before Swype thinks your screen size is OK.

It asks you to enable swype.
Maybe due to a bug this happens when opening certain programs and returns, also it's enabled. Make shure to check swype settings in settings -> language & Keyboard -> swype.

Yes, it worked without any issues. Just needed to turn it on in the settings unlike with the installer where it does it for you. I threw it up on my dropbox so next time if I get this issue again I got a plan.
Well about 2 mins ago it just installed the core files on it's own and synced my license number up. Neat.

I have not installed the update yet (don't feel like reflashing recovery etc.) But I get that "enable Swype" notification in the status bar (with keyboard icon) quite often.
I love Swype, but it's just a keyboard...how long does beta need to be???

After updating to Lollipop on my Nexus 5, it restored all of my apps except for about 10. One of them is a widget that I use everyday called Simple Calendar Widget by MYCOLORSCREEN. When trying to download the app, it gives me the message "Unknown error code during application install: -505". It seems to download fine, but the message pops up during the install process. Anybody know about this issue or experiencing the same thing if you try to download this application? I also tried downloading the apk file online but that also fails to install. I can't find any info regarding this issue. Thanks.
I had this issue on certain apps as well. The dev of those apps needed to change something for it to work on Lollipop.

Code 505 is a permissions code. This typically means that the APK file already exists in your /data/app folder. You'll need to locate the APK files in question in the /data/app folder and remove them. You will need root to perform this action.
You came across this problem because you didn't do a wipe of your userdata partition when you jumped from Kitkat to Lollipop. I encountered the same issue because of that reason. I just ended up wiping and starting fresh as my phone hadn't been wiped since I got the device last November.

Are you sure? I flashed the factory image of Lollipop on my phone and it wiped everything. Afterwards, I had to also do a factory reset of my phone from the settings due to a storage issue. Why would that get left behind?
Edit: I checked (phone is rooted) and the app isn't in the /data/app folder

I spent an hour combing through Google group threads trying to get a real answer to this outstanding question. I was perplexed that only two applications of mine refused to install due to this error. The consensus was that the APK file was still there, or some remnants of data related to the application remained on the device that the Play Store service didn't like.
I ended up wiping my device twice:
Once by flashing both the userdata.img and cache.img files, which ended up giving me the storage issue bug on Lollipop. (Showing 16GB instead of 32GB)
Second by performing a factory reset from within the booted OS, which resolved the storage issue.
After that, everything was good to go. Have yet to encounter this error code again.

as long as you have adb working it can be anywhere as long as you know the path
so adb install c:\path\to\file.apk
as it happens with terminal emulator i could download the apk seperately, with other apps i'd probably download on my tablet and pull it off that

I had this issue trying to install Rom Toolbox. I uninstalled Terminal Emulator and the issue went away, probably because Terminal Emulator is included in Rom Toolbox.
How I solved it
In bootloader mode I flash from the factory image userdata and cache, then I wipe Dalvik, data and cache in TWRP after the first boot I skip the setup just too full factory data reset, in the second boot, I set up everything normal, but instead of restoring from previous devices I set it up as a new device, then I manually download the app that was giving the error, it installed without a problem.
I know is a little too much for an app, but it works for me.

I know, that's why you can't install jackpal terminal emulator if you have ROM toolbox installed as it uses the same permissions.
Although you should read up yourself because if you did, you'd know the terminal emulator in rom toolbox force closes on lollipop on the nexus 5.
I understand this is a old thread but I fixed it a way that wasn't mentioned in this thread. Just thought I'd share for anyone googling this issue and finding this. What I did was go into the guest account and uninstall the app that was causing the issue such as snapchat. The way I caused it in the first place was installing snapchat on aptoide which installed it on both my account and the guest account and I decided I didn't want snapchat anymore so I uninstalled it but it was still there on the guest account which caused the error 505 whenever I tried to reinstall snapchat.
UPDATE: If you have the T-Mobile SM-N920T with TWRP installed, then you can just install my new rom from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=72098300
It reroots your device while installing the newest version of the S8 launcher, SuperSU & a super debloated version of the brand new Nougat firmware.
-----------
Hey guys! Here is the new launcher from the Galaxy S8. It's by far the best TouchWiz UI yet, with many improvements and with a slightly different interface. Not to mention that it's just really clean in appearance.
To Install:
1) Backup your current TW launcher as this will overwrite it.
2) Download the "TWS8.apk" below & install it.
That's it. Easy!
Error Fixes:
"The package conflicts with an existing package by the same name."
(CONFIRMED)https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=71850074
"Parse Error: There was a problem parsing the package."
(NOT YET CONFIRMED)https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=71674744
NOTE: This TW is totally different, so you will start with a blank page. You need only swipe up or down to see your app tray or just touch and hold like usual to set widgets or apps on Home Screen. See images below for more features.
NOTE 2: Your app icons and background will look slightly different than mine as I'm running the "PixelizeD" theme from the theme store. I'm using a different font too.
Please be sure to hit the "Thanks" or Donate button if you like it!

Hmm...Strange. I see it says that it conflicts with your current TouchWiz version for some reason.
My suggestion would be to:
1) Backup your device in recovery.
2) Install a backup launcher(like Nova Launcher) from the Play Store.
3) Download "System App Remover (ROOT)" from the Play Store and completely uninstall your current TouchWiz.
4) Try installing the TWS8.apk. (Use the "APK Manager" in "System App Remover (ROOT) to install it if it still won't install on it's own.)
Note: This all assumes you're rooted of course.
If it still doesn't work after that then, then either your variant of the Note 5(if running stock) or perhaps even whatever rom you're running may have some unusual configuration that renders it incompatible.
Try to wipe data of your actual TW in apps before installing it.

It should update whatever TouchWiz you have, unless your service provider heavily tweaked it in some way. 874 downloads in the the last 24 hours and I imagine that a lot of them had Marshmallow. Maybe try my suggestion in the 3rd post above if you're having trouble.

In short, it either works or it doesn't. For those it doesn't work for though it would seem you are in the minority. To determine more than that I would probably need to start receiving A LOT more information from people who are having trouble, like:
- What is the specific error you are getting when trying to install the apk?
- What is your device model #?
- What version of TouchWiz does it say you currently have in "Application Info"?
- Are you on Nougat or Marshmallow?
- Are you rooted or not?
- Are you on stock firmware or a custom rom(and which one)?
- Is your rom TouchWiz based or is it AOSP, CM, Lineage, etc.?
- Have you tried installing the apk with a system app installer/uninstaller(like the one I mentioned in the 3rd post above)?

APK Manager shouldn't be blank. Did you give the app root permissions? Maybe try moving the apk to the Downloads folder if it's not already. If it's blank it would just mean that the app is not finding your APK most likely.
What is the error you are getting when you are trying to install the APK normally btw? Is it the "package conflicts with an existing package of the same name" one. If so, then it may be the version of TouchWiz in your rom or something in your roms configuration that's preventing the update. Might need to try flashing a different rom if nothing works and you can't get it to install. I think it's worth it personally. The new TouchWiz is pretty awesome and integrates nicely with most Note 5, TW based, roms.
I had the apk in both download and root of my sdcard. The app has root permission i used it to uninstall the original tw home. Thanks I'll try it on another rom

Oh I see. Sprint people. Are you on a Nougat rom? It should probably work if you are. I believe "Parse Error" means that your version of TouchWiz(and likely your system configuration) is completely different than most others btw.

This is a completely different error than they were having. Though if it's saying there's a conflicting package installed, then uninstalling and reinstalling, as I suggested in post 3 should maybe fix that, but you would need root.
The video you posted is difficult to tell what's going on, but the basic idea I got out of it was to try installing it right away on startup before the device knows what you're doing by changing your lock screen to swipe and placing a shortcut to the apk on the desktop for quick access after reboot, trying again and again after reboot until it works. Does this actually work for anyone?

Well it looks like you uninstalled something which was necessary for the system to function smoothly. More like a backend service. Flash MIUI again and only remove the app based services like Analytics, don't tamper with the system apps...
I do not have the device rooted but I did uninstall some apps which I could uninstall directly. So I tried installing the latest MIUI from updater but that didn't work for me. Do you mean to say I should factory reset the device and check? Because in too lazy to set up the device again?

No No don't factory reset, just do a dirty flash, i.e flash your current MIUI again through the MiFlash tool (Don't flash older versions nor you will end up with a bootloop), that should install the necessary apps again.
No actually its a bug in miui 10.3.12 which is already reported to xiaomi

Thanks for your suggestion. I took some time and performed a factory reset from recovery and after setting up the device, I looked if the issue was still there. Fortunately, it showed two options for me : "Complete action using : GetApps or Play Store." So I chose play Store as default now. To be honest, I still don't know what actually caused the problem. I hadn't uninstalled any system app nor the GetApps app. However the issue is now fixed for me. Thanks for your time and help.?

Yeah.. if the issue is actually present in the latest MIUI build, then we should see a bugfix update anytime soon.

Hmm.. but again that is very strange.. I had uninstalled some creepy apps like Mi Community which I don't use and others which are *uninstallable* without root within the phone itself. And even if I had uninstalled any system app, I hadn't uninstalled Play Store..

Okay, the problem came back again and this time I did NOT do anything it happened all by itself. @Naveenthemi

Woah, now that's a bug for sure, a device specific one too! Switch to Custom ROMS?

What really happened was, I had set Play Store as default over GetApps last time I reset it. So the links were automatically opening in play store. 2 days ago, I cleared the data of Play Store because I wanted the new material design of Play Store. Unfortunately, I did not get that and when I had cleared the data, as usual, the defaults I set for play store were cleared too. But if the defaults were cleared, it should have given me the options again. But it isn't.
EDIT: I found out that this bug is common for all Redmi Note 7 Pro devices running MIUI 10.3.12 Global. I tested one of my relative's N7P to see if the bug was there and it was! If you guys are not finding the bug, try clearing Play Store's app data and try again. I'm sure you guys will find the bug.

Nope, I cleared data for all Google Services and I was able to access app links and such.
Maybe Webview got an update?

Android System WebView is disabled for me. The only WebView implementation I have is through Chrome. So maybe it was because of Google Chrome.
