I am running Vegan 5.1.1 and tried to install 10.2 this afternoon from the market but it said my device wouldn't support it....is that because it's rooted? What do I need to do to fix that?
Here is my reason for asking....I have a fantasy baseball draft tomorrow the draft tool requires the most up to date browser and flash player....it just spins and never loads up in standard browser or skyfire.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
10.2 from the Market should work fine for you. You will only need the hacked version if you use HULU. But sites like Fox Television will work fine with the regular one. You might want to also download AdFree from the market if you want to skip the ads.
that's what I thought but how do I get it since the market wont let me?
running VEGAN 5.1 and flash 10.2 try going to market on computer and set up download.
I feel like a dolt for not getting this....when I get into the market via the web version it recognizes my two devices and says neither is supported? Even via PC, so how would I get it to move it to my device?
I can't even find it at via the market app
I am a dolt....I wasn't running 5.1.1 just 5.1 I have now done the update...lets see what happen now.
update...
I can no longer connect to any wireless....it just endlessly scans?

Have you tried to forget the connection and then reconnect to it?
have you done the "Market Fix" on your tablet. The web market and the market app on your device point to the same pool of apps. If you can't see it on your device's market app then you can't push it to your tablet from the web.
Adobe Flash Player 10.2 should install from your tablets Market app. If you aren't see it, do the Market Fix.
You need to perform market fix. Takes all of 50 seconds. Read op of this thread.

Try the android app section of freewarelovers.com. I had the same problem of my gtablet not showing up in the android market properly, but this did the trick.
Google has some funky rules about what app is available to a device that connects to the market. Your mileage will vary.
Every time I flashed a rom this past week, I was only able to see flash player BEFORE doing the market fix. After doing the market fix, I saw a bunch of other apps, but no flash player.
So check both before and after doing the market fix.
thanks everybody....once I actually performed the 5.1.1 update my problems began to get worse and then much , much better.
I checked into a hotel yesterday with the family that had an unsecured wifi connection and it connected immediately. From there I re-installed my apps INCLUDING 10.2 and other Tegrazone apps I couldn't get before running 5.1.1
Got hom tonight, still can't connect to my secure wifi router but I am running a test taking the security off to see if that solves the local problem
most specifically my Facebook app. whenever I force quit it or reboot the phone, my Facebook app reverts back to an old version. it says its the most up to date version when I check the version # and there's no updates available. I am rooted and have turned auto update off on the app within play store. this is really obnoxious having to uninstall and then reinstall the app multiple times a day bc the old version is AWFUL. any help would be appreciated GREATLY!

What ROM are you running and what version of Google play store do you have? Haven't noticed this issue.

stock ROM and 4.5.10. its actually not just or force quits and reboots but that generates the problem 100% of the time. I noticed sometimes when I go to my Facebook app it'll just be an old version. although it has the same and most up to date version when I check the version #. when I uninstall and then install again its back to the newest version. reverts randomly a few hours later.

Is it only the Facebook app doing this? I'd try wiping data/cache for app, going to recovery, backup, wipe data/cache, reboot and try to see if problem persists. If it does, something between the Facebook app and google play is not working correct.
heres screenshot of app before and after a soft reboot.

it is the only app doing it that ive noticed but since im fairly new to android, its hard for me to tell older versions from new ones, this one is just SO obvious and frankly that old version is just awful.
i wiped data/cache from the app, went into recovery and wiped cache partition but didnt wipe the data, i assume that completely wipes the phone? sorry like i said i have only had this phone for 2 weeks from long time iphone user minus a short stint with a moto droid in 2009.

It's perfectly fine. Yes, don't wipe the data since that will wipe everything. But, since this did not clear up the issue, it sounds like a Facebook problem. I've heard many people complain about layaway build. Best thing I could say to do is try uninstall, reboot phone, and try reinstall. If that doesn't work, I'd try to find last version Facebook apk file (or current Facebook version apk file) NOT from play store, install,and wait for Facebook to fix the app from this problem. Still seeing possible other way to fix. By installing apk not from play store would allow phone to hopefully not reset to old version since play store doesn't realize you have Facebook anymore (since not from play store). A quick work around until fixed.
If this is facebook only, it might very well be a Facebook problem. Especially when you say that it changes even though the version of the apk stays the same.
Facebook has been testing the new layout by having both the new and the old one in the same apk, then they enable or disable it server side by accounts in order to try different versions of the new layout for different people and see the different responses in usage and so on. This sounds like a bug with that mechanism inside the Facebook app, and is not fixable as such. I for one have yet to see the new layout on my device.
You could try clearing the data for the facebook app to see if that helps.

Are you sure you aren't registered to facebook beta testing?
99.9% sure as I've never opted into a beta test for android.
All,
I have read and experienced force closes when updating to this latest version 42.0.2311.129.
I have experienced force closes without error messages for a few apps after the update. Uninstalling and re-installing does not resolve the issue!
After reading some others who experience this as well I advise you all not to update this TURD !
After I uninstalled this update all my apps started working correctly again.
Its nothing more that Chrome without the shell.
Does anyone know if this can be permanently removed ?
Thanks in Advance
Update 4/25/2015 - as per suggested below you can use TB to freeze this nugget as so it wont update.
Update 4/30/2015 - You can get the latest release of this app here:

Thanks for the tip and the guys over on Fluent. Just froze it it TiBU. Went to Play and is was locked and loaded to update.
I wasn't having issues until the latest update a couple days ago. Now I've noticed my reddit client crops out all the time and several other apps close without error
Ahhh.. so is this fricking thing the reason most of my apps are closing lately??
I was just about to post seeing if anyone else has recently had problems with a lot of apps (Kik not letting keyboard open, tweetcaster, ES file explorer, my MZW app, and a couple others all just force closing right after I select them).
So is it this thing causing this? I have never seen this app until recently, maybe after the 5.0 update. Anyone getting solutions to work, this is very, very frustrating!! Just started about a week or so ago. What does this app even do?

Yes, I had issues with KIK, but clearing the cache seemed to do the trick with launching the keyboard. Cant say other than my experience.
My FitnessPal opened then closed. I tried uninstalling it, and re-installing it, to no avail. Only after I uninstalled that abomination did the app start to work correct. I cant say how many apps this thing is crashing, but after seeing the similar negative reviews on the playstore, I am convinced this is not limited to M8.
There are some fanboys of Google of this app raving about how it changed their life and they are not single b/c of it anymore, others saying its your phone, and to wipe you phone but you DO NOT have to wipe or reset your phone, just roll back the app should be good enough, if you are rooted use TB to freeze it.
I have not tried to remove it completely yet which is what i want to do eventually.
yeah.. I think it's a running joke type of thing to leave over the top, ridiculous silly comments about it on the play store. Do not know where or why that started but it detracts from the reality that this thing sucks! I unistalled the update, froze it with TI backup, restarted the phone and all my apps that were affected by (Tweetcaster, ES file explorer, my VZW, and probably others but those are the main ones I know of for sure) now work 100 %. It was definitely this app that was affecting them for some reason.
As far as Kik goes, not sure, I deleted the app, re-installed it, cleared everything, tried different keyboards, and nothing seems to fix the keyboard not popping up. If I click the + sign like to add an attachment, then back, it brings the keyboard up no problem. Hopefully an update to that app will fix it soon.
Here is a flashable.zip of the latest working version before this latest atrocity, in-case anyone needs it.
I couldn't even type in the stock HTC messaging.apk along with many other apps not working, with the new update. Once re-storing to this older version all my apps and everything is back to normal.
Google is much better than this.
I really don't understand how people can leave a comment in PlayStore saying this update is anything but horrible.

Its good to know this thing is getting pushed so quickly
These crashes have been driving me nuts. What I'm confused about is that all of the apkmirror webview updates say they are for Lollipop API 21... I'm having identical issues on 4.4.4 CleanROM. When I first found people saying it was a webview issue I looked through system apps and there is no webview to be found so now I'm at a loss on how to fix it
I have a HTC One m8, unrooted, running Android 5.01, Sense 6.0 on Verizon. A couple days ago, apps just started closing the second I open them. Some apps/games work fine while others just won't start. ChompSMS, TriviaCrack and Facebook are the main ones I'm having issues with. I cannot use Chomp or TriviaCrack at all, while Facebook will open, but sometimes it will close a few secons later, and sometimes I can scroll down for a minute or two and then it closes.
I have plenty of free space and ram on my device so I wouldn't think that is the issue. I also have not installed any new apps in the last few days so it's not a new app causing problems. I have been looking for solutions and while I have found a few other posts on other forums about people having the same problem, I have not found any solutions. The interesting thing I have found that everyone with the issue has in common, is that we are all on Verizon. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the problem apps to no avail. Anyone know what is going on? Thanks in advance!
It's probably the Android System Webview issue that's been going around. It's an app you already had and an update something like a week ago is causing all kinds of FC problems. Go find it, uninstall updates and turn off automatic updates in the play store. You'll probably be in business.
Yep
I figured it out shortly after posting. Now my question what exactly does webview do? I uninstalled the updates....should I just disable it as well?
Whatever it does it doesn't seem to hurt anything short of the last update. I saw the warnings in time and have simply been putting off the update in play store until I see that a newer update doesn't cause problems.

Hello,
I have just installed tarkzim's Lineage OS 18.1 - the latest - version on my Z5 without Gapps. Unfortunately it turns out to be unusable because of a serious bug (at least on my phone it shows, and I have no better name for it than to call it a bug): launching the browser (indispensable on a smartphone) crashes the whole system and causes an immediate reboot.
I wonder if anyone else has encountered the same problem or if there is someone who has been able to fix this or has a workaround at least.
Otherwise I hope that the developer reads this here, too, and will look into the problem. For now my Xperia is bricked, but I will follow the development and forthcoming versions, of course, hoping for improvements.
I have another mobile - so I can live with that bricked one for a while ;-)
Hey,
I´ve got basically the same bug, but managed to play around a bit further. From what I could gather, the Phone crashes and reboots every time I open certain apps. I have Gapps istalled and notized two problems.
Crashes and reboot on startup of certain apps, like Chrome, pre istalled browser, Outlook, G-Mail, Mattermost or Amazon Shopping. Other apps seem to do fine. Firefox, k-9 Mail, Whatsapp, Telegram, Sotify work more or less without a problem.
Crashes and reboot on sign in. From the few that I tested, Vanced was the most interesting one because I could open and play Youtube Videos normally but it always crashed when I tried to log in. I could login through microg but since then my phone started to crash and reboot every few minutes. Uninstalling all vanced related apps did not solve the problem. Some apps crashed on sign in and since then werent able to get running again.
I really like the Lineage version, and I wouldn´t even mind finding the "working" apps using them (does´nt really matter to me if I use Chrome or Firefox) but certain apps I need to work like Mattermost.
I hope someone could help with our problem because I really want Lineage to work on the Z5. It feels so... clean and smooth.
Good to hear that someone else has similar issues with this LineageOS version - and regrettable, too, of course. Even without GApps it is unusable so far. But I really hope that this version is not the 'last word', and will continue improving. I know it is a big task for a programmer.
I have just seen that a new version is available. When I find the time, I will replace the version on my phone with the new one and report.
