Problem Solved: Looks like the Dark EMUI Rev A/B theme was the culprit. Changed themes and all is right in the world
Lately, I haven't been able to install apk's directly from storage.
No problem with Google store or from 3rd party sources.
As you can see from the screenshot, what was the 'INSTALL' button is now 'NEXT' but nothing happens when I click on NEXT
Tried rebooting several times but the problem persists.
I've deactivated several systems apps. Maybe one of these interfered with proper installation?
Any suggestions are welcomed
Thanks!

It's true that some themes will cause 'install' or 'next' button greyed when we try to install apk directly from storage.

[Rom Add-On] Clean & Stable Add-On For All Stock Firmware V4[21/07/11][New Market]
Please Do Not post this elsewhere​
This will not work on newbie5 modded stock rom
Hi All.
I have made this rom add-on to try to keep the device as clean and stable as possible. I could add custom boot screens, launcher (like launcher pro) and much more, but I have only added the essentials. As i think everyone has different tastes and the extras are easily installed. I have chosen to use the software tool which is part of the stock firmware, this insures easy installation on any os. No usb recovery drivers or clockwork mod needed!
V4 Rom Add-On includes:
Market (New)
Google Talk
SuperUser
3D Gallery
Google Calendar
Visionary
YouTube App
(removed titanium backup due to size restraint, can be installed through market)
V4 can be installed over the top of V3, titanium backup will remain
V3 Rom Add-On includes:
Market (Old)[Full]
SuperUser
3D Gallery
Google Calendar
Visionary
Titanium BackUp
YouTube App
If you cannot sync contacts or calendar. Please use this fix http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12385012&postcount=131
I have updated the rom add-on now so if you use the version with -1 at the end, it contains the fix.
Optional .ZIP's
Small Taskbar (For Advent v1.09 and v1.10 firmware only)
Gmail
Contacts
Google Maps can be downloaded from the market
I highly recommend launcher pro, its available from the market. It is a lot better than the stock launcher, and the payed for version has some great widgets.
Button savior, also available from the market. Is also for me a must for the vega, it adds the missing buttons as on-screen buttons.
This V3 update is more of a clean up. There was a lot of confusion over the multiple .rar parts and some compatibility issues with v1.10 POV firmware. I have now removed the small taskbar and added it as a update, so now my rom add-on is fully compatible with the pov firmwares and does not require multiple .rars. Advent firmware users who want the small taskbar, simply flash the Small_Taskbar.zip. If you have already installed my v2 version there is no need to update, as i said its more of a clean up. There are a few added apps, but they are easily installed.
Install Instructions:
1 - Download the .zip you wish to flash. Copy the .zip to "software update" on your SDcard.
2 - Navigate to settings/software tool/software update on vega, and touch the .zip
3 - Device will reboot and a "out of a box" android will appear and install the parts.
You will not lose any of your apps/data from this process.
Please make sure you have sufficient power to apply Add-On, i would recommend 50%
Root Instructions:
Root is required for some apps. Eg Button savior requires this for it to function fully.
1 - Open visionary
2 - Touch "Temproot now" the screen will go blank for a few seconds and return to the visionary page. Then click it again. (i have no idea why it is required to do this twice, but in my experience it is necessary)
3 - Touch "Attempt Permroot now" After a few seconds a super user prompt will appear, allow the prompt. Then device will reboot and it should be rooted.
If Flash does not work, navigate to /etc/shuttle_data and run the flash.apk. That will reinstall the included flash version.
If all apps are not showing in the market please follow ice-mn tip. Many thanks to him for this.

Since there are several post discussing this I have opened this thread instead answering the same on all of them.
To get all apps (at least all I have looked for ) you only have to follow the steps described.
1. Go to Manage Applications (in settings/applications)
2. Press the running tab and select market (if market is not running execute it)
3. Select Market from running apps. And:
Press Clear Cache
Press Force Stop
4. Go back and Select Google Services Framework. And:
Press Clear Data (answer ok on the message warning)
Press Force Stop
5. Try to run Market. You will get an error message.
6. Reboot the device and run market twice (the first one you will get the error message again).

Welcome to xda dev. I see this is your first post
Glad you find it useful. i hope to update it soon with a complete package (Flash etc), i just need some where to host it.

Hi All.
I have been playing with the market enabler (thanks to demonknight9). I have added the small taskbar framework to the update. so now you can have the market and small taskbar on a stock v1.08 vega. More gmail apps can be downloaded from the market. As demonknight9 says its very easy to install. No need for CWM.
1 - Download market_update0.zip file and put on storage card.
2 - Navigate to settings/software tool/software update, and navigate to location of market_update0.zip.
3 - Run the market_update0.zip
4 - Device will reboot and install the parts.
You will not lose any of your apps/data from this process.
It looks like flashing things to are vegas is easy, can be done from the software update. The zip is unsigned. More things can be added but i thought i would keep it simple to start with.
Hope its useful
I have made one with flash,spare parts and superuser as well, but it is larger than i can upload to xda dev. if anybody has somewhere i can upload i would be gratefull.
EDIT:I have added the flash.apk to enable flash, visionary to fully root the device and spare parts to disable compatibility mode for games to the attachments.

Good idea to add the bits. Why don't you upload it to fileape? Easy peasy to open an account. Just chose a username and a pass, no email, no confirmation just a plane doddle. go here; www.fileape.com
Upload it to mediafire, you dont even need to register an account to use it
How long does the market updater take, my vega been hanging for about 10 minutes, is this normal?

Which part is it hanging on, once run the device should reboot, then a picture of a box with a arrow appears, and the progress bar bellow turns orange. I have flashed this and different versions with no problems.

Thats very odd. I have re-flashed 4 different versions in the last 10 mins with no problems. Try to hold the power button down for six seconds to totally shut down. Plug the device into the power. Then try a reboot. If that does not work then you are going to have to go into recovery and re-flash the stock rom. Sounds like the flash got interrupted for some reason.

Many thanks, I re-installed the stock rom after putting it into recovery. I tried the market updater again and it worked no problem. Thinking about it now I was on low battery so that why it might not have worked 1st time round..

Is there any way to revert back to large notification bar? It does look good but It's a little too small for me.

I just purchased a gtab. I need help loading the market. I do not have a PC, so I just someone to send me the apk so I can load the market over the air. I'm not trying to flash custom roms or anything, just would like the real market. Thanks in advance.
Google "Android market apk download" and you should have several places to download.

Use the search feature on this site, it has been discussed more than once how to do it and I know the market APK has been posted more than once.
Search is your friend.....
Looked all over. I found it. But the problem I've run into is, it downloads, I try to open it,it flashes open for a split second then closes. Please help a newbie out...

You will need to ROOT first. Search for Z4Root. Runit then install market. BUT, market my not run by itself, you will probably need at least some of the Google Framework. Might as well get the whole working kit, seach for gapps. There will be different versions of the market and so on. The link from CyanogenMod site meant for Tegra will look the best, but is an older version of market. If you want that version here is the link, scroll to bottom and look for Tegra version:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version
So:
1) Find/download 'Z4Root'
2) Run 'Z4Root'
3) Download your choice of 'Google Apps'
4) Change name of ZIP file to update.zip and place in '/sdcard'
5) Copy a version of 'command' file to '/sdcard/recovery'
(you might have to create this folder)
6) 'Reboot' holding both 'Volume +' and 'Power' button
7) Wait for install to finish
8) On restart, follow the setup after you have WIFI up.
9) Do Market Fix' (search)
10) Change '/system/build.prop' (search)
11) Enjoy Market (as good as we can get it, so far)

Go to Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->Running and scroll down to Market.
Then hit Clear Cache, followed by Force Stop.
Then go back, scroll down to Google Services Framework, hit Clear Data, then Force Stop.
Open Market again and you get an Error.
Now shut down the G Tablet, then turned it back on.
Open Market again and all should work.
For guys who are unable to proceed after the language selection when a new rom is flashed, Here is the solution. There is no use of going to settings<selecting Apps < searching for setup wizard app < Force stopping and giving permissions again. After lot of attempts successfully got a solution. but dont know how it might effect the daily usage.
Steps:
1. Reboot to TWRP
2. Click on "Mount"
3. Select "Data"(check mark the data option)
4.Click on Mount the selected storage (don't remember the option exactly)
5. Now go back and click on Advanced
6.Select file manager
7. Scroll down and search for System folder
8. Again scroll and search for priv-app folder
9. Now Search for Setup wizard folder.
10. After entering into the folder, u can see setup wizard apk. Simply delete that by pressing the icon at the bottom right corner and choosing on delete option.
11. You can see a promt asking to delete. Simply swipe it.
12. After go back, Make a Factory reset and reboot the device.
The only bad thing is, it doesnt ask for language selection or wifi or google account setup. It directly goes to the launcher.Not sure how this is going to effect the daily usage.
One thing I found is unable to expand notification drawer.Im new to 7.1(Resurrection remix). may be need to explore new options.
Note: if you got process force close error, click on wait and select the launcher.Thats it.
if this thread helped, dont forget to hit thanks.
P.S: Sorry for my simple and bad english
Edit 2: (The perfectly working one)
After selecting language, then long press the power button, go to settings and connect to wifi and then proceed to login to google. This doesnt make setup wizard close.
credits goes to @Di5cip1e .
The problem is also solved by updating to latest GAPPs. The ROM you were trying to set up was updated to 7.1.2 and the GAPPs you were using were old.
Nice thanks
I have the following problem: when installing an APK, the Package Installer is stuck on the access list (which doesn't appear) and only the 'next' button appears, no 'install' button. Clicking 'next' does nothing, but the click registers. I'm on a stock XZ with Android 7.1.1, no display dimmers or other overlay apps. I have cleared the cache of the Package Installer, rebooted again and again to no avail. I'm really at the my wits' end. Thanks in advance!

What are you trying to install?
It doesn't matter what APK I try to install, none work. Except for fonts. No app or widget will install. Even those which worked a couple of days ago...
Do apps from the play store install correctly?
I have same problem with an alcatel phone that i change many things. The only solution that i found was install the Gapps from restore.
Hello
Info:
Updated recently to 11 using full factory image with wipe (with - w flag).
Rooted with Magisk (canary update channel, see images)
Patched clean boot file and flashed with fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
All good.
Problem: trying to open a .docx file from storage with M$ Word. Screen goes black and phone restarts. On first restart I get the dreaded "cannot load android system - try again or factory reset. Luckily try again does boot my phone.
Attempted solution: remove and reinstall word - click uninstall -" the app wasn't found in the list of installed apps" - see image.
Went to play store to reinstall - only have "open" button - when clicked, screen goes black and back to "cannot load android system" screen ?
Any ideas/advice much appreciated
Many thanks
*Update*
Couldn't resolve via normal methods -
Used App Inspector (UBQSoft) from playstore to see if M$ Word showed up in there and it did:
From there, clicked the cog wheel to go through to "App Info" screen and was able to successfully uninstall from there.
Installed the Office full suite as a work around and am now able to open the document as needed.
Any thoughts or info still appreciate - especially if anyone has had a similar bug, even with different apps.
Many thanks ?
Further Update
So, I've gone back to the same document about an hour after being able to open it - same prob, screen goes black, phone restarts to "cannot load android system - try again or factory reset"
Tried open again from within Files,
got message "none of you apps can open this file"
I have office installed - see images.
I think I'm going to go back to Android 10 - this is quite the inconvenience for the time being
Not sure if it's 11, Magisk or kernel (using the latest EXKM)
but it's system UI that keeps crashing - I cleared out storage and cache as I am currently unable to uninstall Office, even via App Inspector.
*Solved*
Removed one of my Outlook/Micro$oft accounts to which Word and Office were both previously syncing - removed Office via playstore Uninstall button and rebooted phone.
Tested opening the same document both from Files, SolidExplorer and from within Word, opens for editing no probs and performs as expected.
Root and EXKM still installed and fine.
Sorry for multiple updates, just thought it might be useful for anyobe with similar issues.
