Press the SETTINGS button presented here and turn ON "Unknown Sources" which is off by default. This will allow non-PlayStore APKs to be installed.
Hope this helps.

I'm such an idiot, I went on the Page a couple of times and missed it. Thanks a lot

downloads via browser always fail

hi
whenever i try to download anything via the browser it just fails. Tried to download some roms so I could flash later and even just trying to download nits and pieces not related to flashing also fail. I've changed the download location to sdcard but I get the same problem. Any ideas I could try would be great thank you :O

Within the browser? I don't have that option. Even had a look in settings and can't see it.
Thanks

Go to Settings/More/About, tap the Build Number entry repeatedly until developer mode is enabled, then find the setting you need there.

While there uncheck Verify Apps Via Usb, then back out and go to Security. Under Unknown sources Uncheck Verify Apps

I checked the unknown sources one already. What're the other ones for that you suggested?

JellyButterDMF2v5.0 MMS not working! Help!

I have also been using the new V5 Jelly Butter 8/8 update and for me when I try to send an MMS it always says, "failed invalid destination address."
I have tried wiping cache and d.cache and rebooting as well as toggling the data on and off as well as completely clean wiping and reflashing all over again and still the same issue.
Anyone with helpful thoughts?

Check your apns.

Apns?? That term I'm not familiar with. Not a full noob but guess you could say partial noob lol.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
Ok I looked up about it the "apns" when I go to that setting its a black screen...I hit the menu key I can either; A: create new or B: set to default
Tried the set to default now its acting totally screwy.

It would be better to post in that thread honestly. I'm sure someone has had your problem.

I'm too new to the site as a member don't have enough posts to play to that thread beings it is in the development section. Been trying to find something bout it but I can't.

Use root explorer
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
OK so double checking as to not screw it up root uninstall the current MMS apk file and then basically "cut n paste" the apk from v3

Yes. Keep in mind I've only heard of success from one person.
But I don't see why it wouldn't work. Don't forget to reboot after pasting in the the new mms

It worked I used an app to install "system apps". Then installed once pushed to system. Worked but images come in with less clarity but is working now.
