Yes, the name (trying to disguise itself as system) & the fact it's not from your phone mfgr but some random link tells me it's malware!

Hi, I also have one app which asks me to install this, in addition to the .cab that was completed. Warning to install "netcf.phone.wce4.armv4.cab" before running the app. Name of app : SetupPocketMemUS.cab.
Note : an app by the name of MemRelease --- DO NOT USE ON ARTEMIS (P3300). The icon is that of a "clown"-face - Run this app, phone will stall.Hard Reset, HOPE you have recent backup ready.

Sideload Microsoft Word, Excel & PowerPoint for Android on non-supported devices

Since I've been receiving a lot of private messages on how to install the Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint for Tablet apps on non-supported devices, I decided to create this thread that guides you through every single step.
This how-to is meant for people who can't download these apps via the Google Play Store due to device/county restrictions. It's only showing you how to sideload these apps and get them to run on other screen-sized smartphones. The other minimum requirements might still be essential for these apps to run properly.
Official Minimum Requirements:
These apps work best on Android devices having 1GB+ RAM and running KitKat (4.4.x) or later versions.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you run into problems that aren't directly connected to your device but concerning the apps themselves, please post those into the Microsoft Office for Android Community.
You might want to try to install the apps via the Google Play Store first:
Microsoft Word
Microsoft Excel
Microsoft PowerPoint​
To become a beta tester, please follow the steps on the About page of this Microsoft Office for Android Beta Community.
If you aren't able to Install the apps via the Google Play Store, follow this guide:
Download the apk and OBB files.
Install the apks
Push the *.obb files to data/media/obb or to sdcard/Android/obb into corresponding folders named:
Code:
[I]com.microsoft.office.excel[/I]
[I]com.microsoft.office.powerpoint[/I]
[I]com.microsoft.office.word[/I]
Trouble with your obb files?

How to check the target architecture(s) of an app without installing it:
Assuming you have the .apk on your computer (as opposed to your phone or tablet):
Open up the .apk file in 7-Zip or a similar program
Check what directory is present in the lib/ folder

False. Changed the DPI of the systemui and it works.
If there's a way to change the DPI of certain apps on L, that would be of great help.

Is the MD5 checksum correct?
You only changed the PowerPoint folder name, right?
Are the files in the right location? Each file needs to be in exactly one folder in data/media/obb
(See the screenshot I attached)
Did the files actually get copied there? Did you grant the file explorer superuser access to copy all files?
your the best, that did the trick. I was copying it over the wrong way. THANK YOU

Thanks! Do you know i tried that three times before I asked? I kept getting the apk link. Fat fingers on a small screen i guess.

Thanks man, real helpful :good:
One thing that I noticed is that when I try signing it, it fails and says to check the proxy, internet connection, etc.

That usually means that the downloaded package is corrupted or not fully downloaded. If you download it again, it should work.

Signing a document? Problems considering the app itself should be reported in the beta community on Google Plus. I can't think of any reason why this would be device specific.

Can you sign in to any other microsoft apps?
Did you try both, WiFi and mobile network already?
Did you play around with any settings concerning your web connection? (Proxy, etc)
What country are you located in? I honestly don't think they restrict the access via your IP rather than the play store, but who knows. Maybe using a tunnel to sign in?

Yes I can sign into other MS apps, and I'm in the US, and no, nothing is blocked on my Router.

A word of advice. Don't download apps from "stores" like Aptoide. Firstly, they're notoriously full of untrustworthy crap. Secondly, it's warez, they allow you to download paid apps for free and that isn't right.

Reset your phone.

[Pie] Apps ported to oreo

Hello, I am here to share the pie apps from the latest beta builds, as a recent thread similar to this has been closed due to OP descretion, I have had numerous messages to open another one so here it is peeps.:laugh:
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS OR BRICKED DEVICES, DEAD SDCARDS OR ANY OTHER ISSUE CAUSED TO YOUR DEVICE BY THESE APPS YOU ARE FLASHING AT YOUR OWN RISK. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
Installation methods (Both require a permissive kernel)
Method 1: Installing as a normal apk
This method is the simplest of the two, in this method all you simply need to do is install the apk file, however the catch is that your signature verification needs fully disabling for all apks and you need a permissive kernel on top of that for some apps (Eg. Edge Screen).
Method 2: Root install(Pushing into system
This is the slightly harder method of the two but still easy to do.
Requirements:
Root
Any root browser
Open root browswer and make sure system is set to R/W, then copy and paste the apks into their respective folders (Eg. Messages apk goes into SamsungMessages_10.0 folder)
Settings Permissions
Folder Permissions: 755 (rwx r-x r-x)
Apk permissions: 644 (rw- r-- r--)
After all that is completed simply reboot.

In my second post after this main one I will add a link to V3 aroma link.

P3XL Android 11 system taking up spaces for no apparent reason. Freshly reset for the third time this week, still no idea why my system space is taking more storage than expected.
It occurred during an failed installation from an apk, and after successfully installed apk.
