[Q] App not installed.

This is the error I'm getting when trying to install some apks. A lot of others worked but some just won't. It's a new phone and a fresh ROM. Why is this happening? What do I do about it?

What is the name of the app? Did you downloaded it from Play or was it an apk file? Info please

One of the apps which did it was Battery Widget Reborn. I initially tried installing it via .apk and got the error. Then the same app normally installed via Play store.

Did you enable allow apps from unknown sources? Sideloading is disallowed by default.

Got a few apps from a friend, since I had no internet access (no data plan and no wifi) at the moment.

The same app installed from Play Store, works. What do you mean by setting the permissions?

Not trying to be snarky, but what good is a smartphone without internet access? Sounds like a $400 paperweight. Are you running a virus scanner that could possibly be blocking sideloading?

I do have wifi access now and a (very limited) data plan. And I have no virus scanners.

Download file manager. Enable root in settings. Try pushing it to system/app. Restart and see if it works then

I'm having a similar issue. I've been using a slingplayer app that I downloaded over two years ago. I had it working on my Nexus 5 until I switched to ART. After the switch it wouldn't install. I switched back to Dalvik and now it won't reinstall. I can and have installed every other apk on my phone with no problem since switching back except for this one. Any suggestions?

Tried that and it didn't work, but...
PROBLEM SOLVED! What I did was to do a thorough search inside my root to find anything related to the app I was trying to install. I found out that the app has somewhat partially installed in few places. I then deleted all of those and tried installing again. Worked.

I also tried switching between Dalvik and ART but it didn't seem to change anything. I suggest you search your root for any remnants of the app you want to install. Look in data/app, data/app-lib, data/data and system/app.

Samsung app store apk?

I installed AR 11.1 and noticed the Samsung App Store is not included. I thought I just missed the selector to install it so I reflashed and no option in the Aroma installer. Is there any way to get it?
Thanks

I think that ROM isn't Touchwiz based, so it doesn't work.

Hello everyone, my YouTube app isnt working. I get 'connection to server lost, touch to try again' since version 5.17.6 now I installed 6.0.11 still the same error message. Older version works perfectly fine. What am I doing wrong. I'm on 4.3 stock rom i9300 and when I installed cm 11 M12 build it worked but as soon as I reverted to stock the error message starts again. What can I do please?

Themes Store

I'm coming from a Huawei P9 Lite, and I loved about it the many themes there were available for donwloading, but now, in my Honor 8, when I enter to THEMES, it only shows Local Themes, there's not any option to download ...
Is there a problem with my phone, Huawei does not has this option for Honor? Or what?
Thanks already to those who can provide me information or solutions.
You have to have your Huawey account set on the phone (maybe the HiCare as well but I don't remeber).
Than you can download themes from the app called "Themes"
Thanks. I'll try that. But What I noticed is my phone doesn't have Huawei ID pre-installed nor Hicloud and Hicare... Will see if it's possible to install it or not...
Are you able to download themes?

You can apply themes from developers here though. Like MaterialVUI.

Yes I am able to download them:
From the settings you should be able to sign into your Huawei account (there is a menu optoin for that).
That's exactly how it was on my Huawei p9 lite, but can't manage to do it in my Honor 8, last question, what themes app version (or build) do you have? Thanks again.
Can you guys upload the apk. Needed to have this working... Thank you

Did you set your phone number? The only difference what I see right now from the screenshots that you have your email adress and I have my phone number (and secondarily my email) paired to my account.
I used my email address, so I don't think it could be that. Maybe if you try and force close the theme app, clear all the data etc.
Go to settings > apps > and select the themes app
I'm having the same problem and i recently discovered that themes store is not available in US versions:

Ok,good news here @danymart94
I finally found a solution
Get this app from play store
It's called EMUI tweaker:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teammt.gmanrainy.emuitweaker
Now, from the list hit Disable online theme, by default it's turned on
Just switch it off by hitting the toggle then head to the Themes app,
Launch it then your themes app will show a disclaimer now hit ok...
Tada ... online themes are just between your hands.

Stock Batman Injustice theme latest Nougat

Hi guys,
same as the title. There's something so strange and to be discovered.
Here is the case:
flashing injustice csc should make this theme full version.
But if you install this stock apk without flashing the csc together, it will be trial.
Can anyone tell me why?
move from data might not work especially those who didn't root their phone. Freeze app is troublesome each time u restart ur phone u have to unfreeze to apply and freeze it again. Suggest solution or how flashing csc help everyone if anyone know.
Enjoy!

You're welcome, give a "Thanks" to the thread would be amazing
i have a suggestion about applying themes in non-root devices
there is no need to unfreeze-apply-freeze again the app
if you are using the package disabler pro app just clear data from themes every time you switch on or reboot the device and you will be ok
for me it works

Mine won't work for clear data only, might as well just disable it as it run on background and if you forgot to clear data after reboot you have to apply it again, looking for a permanent solution.
edit: I don't mind root solution but now seem nothing work, I like new discovery and see what can we do about it

i don't know what to say man for me it works
actually it doesn't work for me either if i don't clear data
unfortunately i think there is no permanent solution in non-root devices
edit: you can clear data from disable package pro app without enabling themes

I can't uninstall this theme. And it remains a lot of theme files in my phone.
This method used to work very well. I last applied this theme like 5-6 months back. Tried it today but it goes back to a preset theme after like every 5 minutes. Should I update the PD plugin in Playstore? The reviews are pretty bad. Any alternative to PD Pro or any new version?
