Strange issue here. I cannot get apps to sideload. I can select an APK to install with a file manager app that has Install Unknown Apps set to Allowed, and it appears to start the install. But when it looks like it's finished, the prompt displays "App not installed." Anyone run into this before?
Note 20 Ultra 5G AT&T on stock BTIF firmware.

Far as I can tell, any app. I've tried several, with the same results.

Try side loading an app from APK Mirror and see if that works.
Is the app that you are trying to install already installed? I get that message when I try to install an older version over a new version. I have to uninstall the newer version to install the older version.

I've run into the same issue with other extractor apps.
They appear to extract ok but they are DOA on reload.
Try using APK Export
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...google&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=apk+export
This one works, ad free and no internet connection, highly functional freeware on Playstore.
How that happened?:silly:

Either permission to side load isn't enabled, the apk is damaged or it's incompatible with the device or OS.
Try side loading a known good apk.

I have a branded Galaxy S with no Android market. I've found 3 different Vending.apks, version 1.665, 1.668, 1.713. I tried to install them using adb install. 1.7133 returns "unexpected exception". Other two install successfully but they both crash when click Install an app. When I go back to app page it says Starting download and gets stuck there (Market app is not frozen). Am I missing a step for manually installing market? Do I have to do anything like adb push Vending.apk /system/app/?
Have you tried flashing a gapps.apk?
have you tried using appbrain and their corrosponding apps like their installer?

AFAIK appbrain uses default market app to download. I don't have any market app that's the problem..

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I don't know what gapps.apk is. Could you elaborate please?
Do you mean Vending.apk from the gapps-passion-EPE54B-signed.zip of the Cyanogenmod 5?
Btw I'm using:
pad: jvjh1
phone: jxjg2
csc: trcjh2
Did the same vending.apk installation on a HTC legend "Middle East Version" which also came with no Market and no sucess, i do have the same problem..."crashing at installation"
and about gapps, it's not an apk but rather a flashable content that require rooted device and since i don't wanna root this phone i really didn't figure it out so far. so i'm still waiting for a solution.
Ok. The gapps.apk I know of you can find on rom manager. I think you can DL rom manager straight from their website and install using something like astro file manager. Cyanogen can't release a rom with the Google apps for copyright reasons so they offer it as a seperate download. I'm assuming you can find it on the cyanogenmod site. Otherwise try flashing a stock image through rom manager if they have one for the galaxy x. How did it not come with a market?
Hi. I posted a reply for your idea for my problem but got no reply from you, I guess the thread got lost beneath all the other threads. Could you please give me any ideas about this:

Are you on Pure Nexus, by chance? I know you're not stock since you mentioned 7.1.2. If you're using that ROM, in the download section underneath the ROM and gapps, there's a camera fix zip and you need to flash that as well. @GizmoTheGreen

you can't install apps that have been signed by a different developer, and replace with the current one. metaphor, you have a girlfriend, but your trying to get another girl who looks, and smells like your current girl, but her name is different. Since your in a beta OS, you can definitely expect bugs.
have you tried Factory data reset? there may be residual files from previous OS.

If you have secure boot on disable it, restart your phone, try Again. Worked for me couple times
It's a vice versa situation. If your secure boot is on then disable it else vice versa. And reboot your phone and then install the app. It will surely install. Its not like you've a girlfriend situation?

Go to settings-lock screen and security-and scroll till you see secure start up. If it's on disable it. Restart your phone and try to install again.

Reboot your phone and as soon as it starts up try to install it
I'm pretty sure you just can't, the only way to do it it's through root... unfortunately

I use ESFile Explorer to copy the new APK into the folder where the old APK is located - firstly delete the old app then replace with the new app (ensure the same name is used). Some apps are hard to find so I use BKDisabler to find the exact path of the APK I want to replace.
It worked for me as I replace the Device Maintenance App on my S8+ with a newer version off APKMirror
If still having issues, the method below may work too:
TAKE A BACKUP FIRST IN CASE IT GOES TITSUP
Download AromaFM here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646108&page=2 ((its a file manager that doesnt install on the phone, just runs in recovery)
Download the APK to are trying to update and put it either on an sd card or in the download folder on your phone: You will need to know where the current APK is located on your phone (usually apps are located in /data/app or /system/priv-app/ or system/app/ before going to the next step...... so for this example the APK is located in /system/priv-app/camera)
Reboot into TWRP Recovery
Install AromaFM
Go to your downloaded APK and either cut or copy it
Then navigate to the /system/priv-app/camera folder and delete the old APK then paste the new APK
Reboot
Now you should have the updated APK installed
Guys, what are you trying to solve here, he didn't even state which apk he is trying to install....
Is there a way to see a list of all versions of an App that's been installed? I just updated an app for the first time in months and don't like the new version. I'm trying to figure out what version I initially downloaded so I can install the correct .APK file.
Thanks.
Maybe an app can supply a feature of its own version updating log.

That's a good idea. Is there a directory where a log of app installs is kept? I looked in the directory of the app I'm trying to downgrade; it just had the normal files it creates. No log.
Thanks.
I messed up my camera by using an APK form apkmirror.com. Probably i choosed a non compatible camera. Stupid idea.
I tried them all by now and stil the camera is not working. It goes as far as the permissions for location, but then it crashes.
I really hope that someone can provide me a link for the stock camera APK for the Find X2 Pro (ColorOS 11).
Thanks in advance !

Try this : open camera app properties and check if you have an option to uninstall the updates.
Otherwise, factory reset of the phone should revert to stock app.

I had tried the 'Uninstall updates' option already, but it isn't there unfortunately.
The factory reset is an option i want to avoid for now. Maybe later.
