I uninstalled Superuser, anyone know how to get it back? I also wanted to upgrade to the latest 2.2.2 if possible.

Download that on your sd card. Then, if you haven't already, download astro. With astro, browse the zip file and go into /system/app, then click the file here and open the app manager, and install the app!

Thanks so much. I did what you said and it installed Superuser. I guess now I should reboot the phone?

I'm a HTC Desire S owner. I've problem installing APK files. It shows "There is a problem parsing the package" when trying to install apk files in ES File Explorer. It only happens when the apk files are in SDcard. It don't happen when install apk files which are located in my PC thru WiFi with ES File Explorer. It don't work with ASTRO file manager either. But I can install with AndExplorer and can install from PC (with DroidExplorer). I mostly use ES file manager and wanna install with it. I'm currently using latest version of ES file explorer. I've already checked "Allow installation of non-market apps" in setting. It did not happen with Stock ROM. Happened while using Saga3D, I don't know what I accidently did. I change to new rom 'Virtuous Quattro (ICS) and it still occur. Now I'm on Hyperion and it is still happening. Please help me.

I cannot tell you the reason for this issue, but it's well known. just download the apk on your Pc and put on Sd card then.
And Sometimes you are downloading an corrupted apk, simply download the app somewhere else.
Sent by my fingers to your head.
They say this error is likely attributed to:
1) Some strange apk not fit for the device. so, try downloading compatible apk.
2) Problems with Dalvik cache. try wiping cache & dalvik cache.
The reason for this is that the app is not downloaded completely. The download may have been interrupted on your phone due to some reason. On PC, the apps are downloaded uninterrupted, so no parsing error.

Thanks. Good to know

This occurs in case of corrupted downloads, where the file is shown as completely downloaded but actually some bits are lost while downloading. Very common when the downloading is done on the phone itself. Try downloading via PC and then transfer the apk to the sd card and you should be fine. I came across this when downloading an apk from the xda site itself (in the app development forum i think) and everytime i tried downloading on the phone, i got a parsing error... but as soon as i downloaded on PC and transferred it to phone, it installed right away!
I'm sure APK file is not corrupt. I can install with AndExplorer but not with ES File Explorer. I reinstalled ES File Explorer, but still not working.

Well then i guess you can say goodbye to ES File Explorer and stick to AndExplorer if this solves your problem!
Whatever works for you man! At least you found a workaround...I used to go crazy when i got these parsing errors!!!
Or try a different memory card. I have a Kingston micro-SD which gave me sleepless night awhile.
apk Problem
Have tried to check your Android Minimum SDK Version you have at your Program ??
Check this file and check your device
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="19"
android:targetSdkVersion="20" />
I have faced this problem with old versions , and resolved it by changing the appropriate minSdkVersion

APK installation Astro File Manager issue
For me, the APK installer in Astro File Manager doesn't work atm.
I see a brief scanning popup window but then it disappears.
Until they fix it, it's best to avoid launching APKs from Astro File manager.
If you think your APKs installs are using Astro File manager as the default app, you need to clear it.
On a Samsung Galaxy S7, I had to
1. Settings > Applications > Application manager
2. More (Reset app preferences)
3. If you have Samsung Kids Mode installed, you need to run and reconfigure it (if you don't you'll get annoying popups because Kids Mode app is now unstable until you reconfigure it)
4. Return to ES File Explorer and launch the APK (if there are still issues, continue to step 5)
5. Go back to Application Manager (i.e. repeat step 1)
6. More (drop down menu on top right) > Show system apps
7. Scroll down and locate Package Installer
8. Set as default
9. Try again

I had the same problem it was related to Package installer permissions. Gave the storage permission to package installer it worked. Mine was LG G3 with CM13 by the way.
I want to install some of the apps from below, but some require to uninstall a APK in the System/App folder. I can locate them with ES File Manager however I just have delete as an option. No uninstall. Is there a free app that I can use to uninstall such a APK? I know through application manager you can uninstall certain apps, but the one I need is not in there listed. Thanks in advance.

You dont uninstall them you either delete them or rename them. I suggest renaming them to something like appname.apk.bak.

Instructions from the site "You need to uninstall GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk or QuickSearchBox.apk or Velvet.apk all from System/app and reboot.. Then install mine like a normal application"
Above is for the blacked out Google Now. On my phone the APK is named Velvet.

Hi, what am I doing wrong? I wanted to install apk file from the Solid Explorer but it said "Error" even if I enabled installing the unknown apps via this file browser. I had to used the default browser installed in oneplus 6. Is this behavior right or am I missed something?

1) apk is damaged or cannot install
2) Solid Explorer does not have permission to install APK
- Check in Settings\Apps\Application list\Solid Explorer\Install unknown apps - Need to be set on allowed
Apk is not damaged. I have tried two apps which waren't installed by Solid Explorer, but were installed by default browser. And Solid Explorer has permission. Adding screenshots about permission and installing from each browsers.
(GIF - open it)

I have same issue with solid explorer. I think we have to wait for a fix from solid explorer dev.
Ok then. I have written a message to devs, just for sure.
I have been using Root Explorer for the last 6 years including my current OP6. No issues of installing APK.

Fixed by long pressing an apk file, selecting “open with” then selecting package installer. After this it works fine afterwards.
