So last few days I very been having problems installing apks. Everytime I go to install the only button that works is cancel I try to press install and it doesn't allow me to push it. Unknown sources is on, what am I missing?

New rom? Bad rom flash ? Try install using emulator or ADB
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
Have you tried installing through adb ? And what apps are you trying to install ?
Another thing to try is putting the app on your sdcard and moving it to /data/app with a file manager.
I've tried multiple roms same issue and I haven't tried adb can you explain how to do it through adb? First it's set cpu and the second is HTC calibration app

Maybe try fixing permissions and clearing cache In recovery, then try and install the apk
****'ll Buff Out
If a apk wasn't signed it won't install... You will have issue with things It won't show up on your phone.. You can try throwing it in the rom somewhere like the app section and you might get it to pop up and work. You can flash and turn of check for sig and it should install fine..

It's a security thing I think. I forgot the exact solution but I remember having the same problem and I searched and found a solution somewhere on the internet. I do remember deleting an app and the issue was fixed. I'll look and see if I can find the solution.
EDIT: FOUND IT!! You must diable screen filter and you'll be good to go.

OK, so lets try this again. I'm trying to get my Market to update to the newest version! had to hard reset my vibrant and now cant seem to get the Market to update! did it before but now nothing seems to work! tried launching it and then going back to Home Screen and waiting but still didn't update. also tried rebooting my vibrant many times. even tried installing 2.2 market apk. but that also fails to install! so xda friends please help me out! I need the new market!! Thanks
I'm probably missing your point, but grab the vending.apk and drop it in system/apps and reboot.
Already tried the vending app.wont install says a install error!

you do not install system apps, you move them to system/app and reboot.
Now, if you are talking about the 2.2 updated market for people on Eclair, you can just download that to your sd and install it and then click to "update"
I actually did not like the 2.2 market on eclair builds, but left it in the sticky so people could try it.

thanks but where can I download the 2.2 updated market apk? tried searching google and xda but no luck! just running rooted stock 2.1 with the Ji6 update!
thanks a million!
Dam it. Nothing seems to be working. Cant install the vending apk. Because it pops up a parsing error.cant install package! Tried moving it to system/apps folder but says I dont have permissions error! Why is the Market not updating on its own? I need the newest version of the Market. If you have any ideas please let me know asap. Maybe im just stupid! Thanks for any help!

Go to the tips and tricks thread on your phone. DL the market app. Click open once the DL completes. (If you have an app like apKatcher installed be sure to chose 'package installer'). That's it. I've done it probably a dozen times with no issues.

Omg thanks that worked great! Will I be able to get future market updates. Meaning will it update on its own? Thanks for all the help!

here is the new swype and market, swype is new and improved. all I ask is hit the thanks button ;-)
Swype:3.269.2
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13365992/apk's/Swype_MULTILANG_ALLRES_v3.apk
Market 3.2.11 (need to change name to vending)
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13365992/apk's/Market-3.3.11.apk
Edit: market installation
Open Root explorer (or any file manager w/ root access) Move New Market to system/apps (make sure to mount R/W first) Move (or delete, but I suggest to move .apk just in case) fix Permissions (rw--r--r)Exit Root Explorer (or any file manager)
Reboot
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
what versions are they?
Swype3.26.92 Market is ICS 3.2 ( I don't know what the different is I think it might be faster)

A noob question but How to install the market?
Take the market apk and put it into the system apps using root explorer or something like it

hey,
that method leads to FC's and installing the apk leads to app not being installed.

The same thing happens to me when I try to install the Swype app....
Thanks for the link. How the heck do I get it to work without the constant force closes?
make sure it's named vendor.apk and change permissions to fit the other system apps.
Open Root explorer (or any file manager w/ root access) Move New Market to system/apps (make sure to mount R/W first) Move (or delete, but I suggest to move .apk just in case) fix Permissions (rw--r--r)Exit Root Explorer (or any file manager)

Thanks for the market tips. Everything worked fine. My biggest problem is with the swype. f/c's start when I reboot phone. Running CM stable for vibrant. Don't know how to fix...
Good news, I updated to CM nightly 168 and the FC problem stopped for now.
The given links lead to Error 404 page at dropbox site. Are the links still working or I need to enter login information?

If you having problems installing the swype apk... you can use Ti backup to uninstall swype, then reboot (important). install swype directly through "files" app or "my files". Worked for me!!
you guys realize that swype updates itself through the settings>input>swype settings> ..
right??? I guess its after the last update mines been updating
Any themes around?

so i just installed swype. looks good and runs great. it did tell me there was an update for swype after i installed it. after the download it says it was unable to install the update. any ideas?????
I'm currently out of the country on business and only able to use my OG over WiFi. Because I'm not on the cell network, I cannot sign in to Google Voice to use GChat. I'd really like to install the old Google Talk app to accomplish this.
I've tried a couple different .apks, but cannot get them to install. Tried putting them in /data/apps, rebooting, but get nothing. Does anybody use this app on their LGOG? If so, how did you get it working?
Thanks.
It wouldn't go in data/app it would go in system/app I believe. Could try flashing the entire gapps zip.

Damn, I feel like a dumbass. You're right about system/app, although the apk still doesn't install. I'll try the gapps zip. Thanks, man!
Sent from my LG-E970 using XDA Premium HD app
Shouldnt have to install it, just drop in /system/app and reboot. If might have other dependencies in the gapps zip that it needs though.
Got a gapps zip, extracted just the Talk.apk, placed it in system/app, rebooted, and now I am good to go!
Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction.

hey guys can any1 tell me how do i change my superSU app with other 1... like superuser and remove the previous 1?
the reason i want to change is coz i cant access few apps like "root explorer" and "ad away" coz when open them they say "Either su binary could not be found or you did not allow the root permission for adaway" but i have already granted the permissions... this is happening in these 2 apps so far while other apps like greenify and other are working fine.
the thing is that there no option either to update the SU binary in superSU app which is installed in my custom rom "SUPER JB"
here is the link of the app which am using https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu
and am attaching a screenshot also of the error i get.
plz help me out... thanks in adv.
I'd check your root, sounds like you might have broken it.
EDIT: You already have a thread so there was no need to start a new one.

Root is fine coz every other app is working fine.. Like greenify, root app delete, my backup root, quick reboot... So root is fine..
And I started a new thread coz no1 was replying in that thread, probably ppl see 9 replys frm out side n think it might b solved.

Did you try to reinstall? The option is down in settings.
After re-boot and re-install it will ask to update binary.

Just tried.. After re-install it asked to update su binary n have 2 options... Normal or TWPR/CWM
I selected normal butt still same error...
Can I just press re-install n when after restart can I install other app called superuser? Will it be okay or will it mess up the Rom?

Okay I changed the app but its still giving the same error..
I think I found out why its happening in these 2 apps... Coz I installed them manually frm file explorer using their Apk file n not from play store... But I still dont understand tht
Y is it happening.. I mean bfre also they used to work... Maybe is it the new custom Rom I flashed.. superJB?
But bfre this also I had custom Rom called powerJB..
Is therr anymore solutions?

now when I try to install Google chrome/facebook/Google Plus, in google play it tells me, invalid package file,
and yes I did clear the cache of play/google frame work but it didnt work for me any idea?
Install busybox. If that doesn't work then you might try hard reset.

I did a factory reset, and also installed busy box,
for some apps like facebook, i can now install, but for google play store it still says invalid package file or google play book
Unlink all apps then uninstall linked2sd. Reboot then reinstall the apps that aren't working.
