Try pushing the .apk file to /system/app (requires root and a root explorer app).
This may work, but it will replace a similar app if you have one e.g. the gallery app.

Do you happen to use the Screen Filter app?
I vaguely remember reading somewhere someone had an issue installing apps while this app was active.

Just go to settings>applications>then tick on allow installation of non market apps...and you are done...cheers

"I also checked and rechecked that option in setting"
which means that he enabled and reenabled Unknown Sources.

Yes that was the problem indeed thank a lot I spent whole night on this. Thought of wiping the data and so many other things. Anyhow it should be reported to developers.

I tried that, didn't work either.
Edit, I moved it from the external SD card to the internal one and was able to install it.
From the market:

}
From the apk
I hadn't had an issue with installing mine. Perhaps try clearing data (of the market app).
I actually just installed it roughly 10 minutes ago with no issues. I'd suggest restarting your phone and trying again as well as clearing market data to see if that resolves any issues. Have you changed any build.prop information or anything? Also, are you under wifi or using your mobile data? Sometimes if the data connection isn't stable it can cause download issues.
No problems here.
One thing to note - if you installed SetCPU from the APK on XDA, you will NOT be able to update it via the Market, as the Market is unaware of the "Free for XDA users" aspect of this app.
I have seen the error that you had with downloading before, and it occurred when I had another "Free for XDA members" app installed (BetterBatteryStats) and tried to update it via Market.

[Q] Stopping the play store from auto updating.

I was having issues with my TF700 so I did a factory reset, and reinstalled CM 10.1. Unfortunately now the play store was updated to 4.0.26. I think this version is horrible so I uninstalled the updates to it resetting it back to 3.10.14. Cool, except that it keeps silently upgrading back to 4.0.26 after a while. Is there any way to stop it from doing this? Thanks.

I tried to istall a theme from a miui website by puting the .mtz file in my sdcard but I couldn't do it I'm not sure but I believe you can only install themes through the themes app in the rom.So I guess you have to look for the same theme within this app.
Edit: I saw this same post on the rom thread and like I said there,you are not connected to wifi and your data connection is very poor.

Not possible as far as I know, they changed their policy regarding themes. You need to download them from the market, otherwise you will receive an authorization error.
I read in the forums there is still a way to manually apply themes without the app but I currently do not know how.

Hey so Ive installed both the apps. Fx and the other one. It asks me to update the drivers, but I don't know exactly which one to use. I chose cortex a8 neon. For both. But it says I don't have root and busybox. I do have both installed. I know super user works just fine. Because when I first opened the apps up they ask for permission. Which I granted. And I changed my build prompt like the post says in android development. I tried again and it reboots the phone, but it asks again " in order to use this app u have to update the v4a drivers " can someone help me out
Am I using the wrong rooting app ?

Help: Syncing after first turn-on

Hello,
When you first open a new phone ( in my case galaxy s8+ ), you are prompted to enter your google account.
if you have a backup you'll get the following screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
In case you chose not to enter a Google account at this stage, and you decided to do it later, you won't get this option.
for example, you will be able to sync contacts if you enter a Google account later, but you won't be able to restore your applications or call history.
I couldn't find inside the settings how to perform this special first-run syncing. is there a way to perform it without factory reset?
Maybe sending an intent with ADB to the app that is responsible for it?
Thanks,
Ana
anyone?

There is a option in Google drive app to manage device backup, I think you can restore it from there, not 100% sure but I think I saw an option like that on the app.

Sorry but I don't think you can without resetting your phone, or at least I have not heard or read about anyone restoring from drive without resetting. You can install apps from the store and restore the app data automatically after installing, I think the option is in the backup and reset section in the settings menu of the device.
SOLVED
nvm
