Hi, I tired extracting the apk from the Medium news app installed from Google Play, and no matter what tool I used the resulting apk is installing but crashing on launch...
can someone recommend what can I do? did you have to deal with this problem before?

I have a problem with Google Chrome and I'm currently on CROMI 3.3 atm. I remembered I uninstalled Google Chrome once before and recently I just wanted to add it back so I could make use of ease with that nice Google account syncing with other synced devices. I tried installing from Play Store, and i got an error code -24. I couldn't find any information on that, so I tried doing 3rd party app installer and even tried using airdroid to do an install from my PC. Both of which could not even install as well.
I can only remember that Chrome was installed as a system app before, but I never did so. The only thing that acknowledges Chrome's existence on my tablet is Titanium Backup. There's a strikethrough line for com.android.chrome, but it doesn't give me any other option to do anything with it. No backup, freezing, or uninstall. Oddly enough, I don't know how I don't have a backup for the apk either.
The point is I'm trying to make here is, should I reflash the previous CROMI that did install Chrome with its package? I was on 3.2 before coming straight to 3.3. Is it safe to do that?
The one other thing I'm hoping would work is ask someone on here for their Chrome backup and restore it through Titanium. It's a chance that it would probably work, but I would like some thoughts on that.
Any help is appreciated, thanks... ~__~
Hello everyone,
I've read a lot forums with people nagging about not getting the update to Google Play Store 4. My problem is that I'm getting it. I'm running ICS at the moment. This android version has still the market updater, witch i've frozed (probaly misspelled frozed) (with link2SD) and the second time I uninstalled it. I also used the Lucky Patcher noupdate patch, but GPS4 keeps returning. Does anyone know anything to let me stay at GPS3? Maybe a other way or a mod? Disable write rights to phonesky.apk?
I hope someone does, thanks, nathan-96
Hi guys
Wondefing if anyone can help me. I have my tf101 running the most recent katkiss but I am finding more and more that I cannot download a lot of apps. Some just don't open or some say that the hardware is not compatible. Has anyone else had these issues and if so is there any way around it?
Thanks in advance guys
Workaround
Same here. I noticed it couple of days ago, on KatKiss-Lollipop, with Chrome being absent from my apps on Google Play (maybe others, too). It was working, though. Now I flashed KatKiss-MarshMallow and still Chrome is listed as incompatible.
As a (hopefully, temporal) workaround, you can use something like APK Downloader from Evozi (I can’t post links, sorry, but just google “apk downloader evozi”).
Google recently updated their Messenger app and some changes I don't like. I downloaded the previous version's apk file and tried to install it. I get an error Application not Installed. I am sure that because it is a Google app there is something blocking the installation. Also probably because the install in not coming from Google Play Store.
Has anyone figured out a way to bypass this issue? To load Google apps not from the Play Store server? I deleted the Play Store version before trying to install the apk file, but that did not work.
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
Never mind. Found out that the apk version I was using was not compatible with my device. Found another version and it loaded fine.
Talk about a brain f--t! LOL
Hello everyone, first time posting here. I apologize is it's not the correct place or if it is a complete waste of time.
I have a couple of questions about the Sony S Tablet. For the past 5 days I have been trying to figure out why I keep getting a "no connection" error every time I tried to install an app from the play store. I had try everything that i could possibly find to fix this problem to no success. I did not have root explorer because I guess i did a factory reset at some point. I have ICS on the tablet which was rooted a long time ago.
Anyways, I tried everything under the sun that I could find and ended up removing the root privilege ( didn't even know i could do that). then after I used the kingoroot PC version to root again. I removed the hosts file under /system/etc and still did not fix my problem. Also managed to uninstall the play store app
Anyways, I am pretty much giving up hope for anything else., however I kind of want to use the tablet just to watch streaming like HULU and NETFLIX. I can use netflix but i can't not get hulu to work whatsoever. It seems that the problem that plagues this app is the same that I had when trying to install something from the the play store.
Is there any hulu APKs around that I could still use as well as being able to re-install the play store? I'm completely out of ideas and by now just want to be able to use netflix and hulu is nothing more.
Any help from anyone? comment or suggestions are very appreciated.
