have o look at developer options/ down to "Miui optimizing" switch. Is it set to on? If not, change to on and reboot.
Maybe this could fix the problem.

Alarm Clock Extreme.apk
Does it matter, I tried few APKs, no luck
well some require root, some are system apk etc.
did you change the setting to allow apps from unknown sources?
They also may not be updated to work with 4.4
Yes i tried both tick or untick, but installbutton is not clickable.
could be kitkat.
can you try to install some apk?
thanks
Are you running some app that dims the screen or provides an overlay of some sort ? Turn that off if so.
Have you enabled 'unknown sources' option in security settings?

thank you for your advice, this really worked. But I do not get any rationale behind it?
Could you shed some light?
btw, I did some search on the internet, but I guess I need to dig in deeper
This is what Screen Adjuster developer says
What's New
v1.7
-notification bugfix
-the bug with apk installation cannot be fix due to it is related with the Android Package Manager
But what does it have to do with Pacakage manager and Screeen?
Android Package Manager prevents overlays from allowing installation of apks. If it weren't in place someone could be pretty malicious with overlays and actually get you to install anything they wanted and you wouldn't even know it. You would think you are clicking a button in the app but really you would be installing something bad.
DownloadManager's notifications on my phone re-appear back either after couple of minutes after cleaning up the notification area or right after i restart my phone
its much more annoying when you download too many stuffs
i have to wait for 'clear data' button in 'download manager' appinfo to get tabable after computing sizes on every download seasons !!
plus that(may you already knew) it also supposed to launch/open downloads-UI file by tabbing the related notifications , but not mine !
i also am using ADM pro but unfortunatly it does not grab every download link
please excuse my bad english and help me fix this.
thank you

the DM is default downloader when you are downloading from google play market and etc.
ADM pro wont grab or handle it.

Deactivating an app? Pretty easy. Go to settings -> apps -> on to "all" tab -> find the downloader app -> select it -> freeze/deactivate or whatever says the up right button.Before you do that, force close the app (right next to the deactivation button) and after the deactivation, I suggest you to clean all the data of the app.

Uh huh...what a blind i am!
I just bought my mi4 today, and i just cant remove the limit of downloading app from playstore & other apps,
i've browse around and they keep said using "Download" app that already there since they start their phone.
and i realize that i dont have that app !! omggg
anyone can help me here?
sorry for my bad in english.
Are you sure you dont have the download app? It looks like this:
If you dont have it, try updating or flashing a fresh MIUI ROM.
After you find it go into it and press the 3 dots on the top right. A menu will appear. Click on settings and scroll the numbers on the bottom down to where it says unlimited.

Hello guys,
OK, I have enabled installation from "unknown sources" but to my frustration, some apks refuse to install. Most especially Mobdro and Contact Optimizer.
When I click these apks, I get the option to "Install" or "Cancel". If I click on "Install", it does nothing regardless of the number of times I click but once I click on "Cancel" it exits the installation process.
I have installed other apks successfully but these two refuse.
Help needed please,
Thanks

Thanks so so much. That was the problem. Reverted to default and everything installed. Unfortunately I only got to watch the last four minutes of extra time for the match.
Thanks once again.
Hi, since the Oreo update I can't find the "Unknown sources" to install APK's freely. I'ts not under "Lock Screen and Security", and I have enabled Chrome in "Applications/Special Access/Install other apps" and I'm trying to install apps from the "Downloads" section of chrome, but it dosn't work this way either.
I was trying to install the Pixel Launcher as seen from here: https://theunlockr.com/2018/03/13/make-samsung-galaxy-s9-look-like-stock-android/
But everytime I try it I get the "<!> Application not installed".
I don't know exactly what says in english, I'm using my phone in spanish.
Any ideas? Thanks!
If you go to Settings-Apps-3 Dots-Special Access-Install Unknown Apps.
They've moved it so only certain apps can install unknown apps
Please help how to fix this problem. This doesn't work, I tried installing Accuweather pro several times. I have the app saved to my Google Drive, I click on the app and I see something called 'Staging App' and then I get this alert ' There was a problem parsing the package'. I currently had an older version of Accuweather pro installed and working fine. I decided to remove the old version and then reinstall it and I received the same alert. FYI the old Accuweather app was installed before the Oreo update.

Have you tried downloading your APP file from Google Drive to your phone then opening the copy on your phone, that should install the .apk
Go to settings on the phone >> apps >> 3 vertical dots at the top right corner >> special access >> install unknown apps >> and there enable the permission from where you are trying to download it.
All thank you,
I found out that you now have to download the app to your phone. Google Drive does not allow you to download and manually install .
Dear sir/madam,
Following your answer, in specific this part, "They've moved it so only certain apps can install unknown apps", perhaps someone could help me out. I use the Firefox Focus browser and this app doesn't show up in the list of apps that are allowed to install unknown apps.
* Does this mean Firefox Focus can't install apps from unknown apps, since it's not on the list?
* And perhaps we can conclude from that it will never be allowed to do so?
* Or would this app not be on this list, because I've never tried installing anything using this browser?
I guess the real question would be, what populates this list?
I hope to hear from you, thanks in advance, all the best.
Form what I've seen, 1st time you try to install apk from an app it asks you if you want to allow it?

That's what I was thinking as well, funny thing is that 'Google Chrome' is in the list and I've never used that browser. Unless it's there, because it's from Google
I have followed the above suggestions and have allowed Chrome to install apps since that's the browser I'm using. The phone says I have downloaded the app but it is not giving me any option to install it? Where did the download go and how can I get it actually installed? This is an app for work.
Edit: Nevermind - I restarted the phone and tried again and it worked. thanks.
