The package file was not signed correctly - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Some time ago I made several attempts to install the gmail dark applet, with negative results. I think restored gmail original version, but l'm not sure...
Today, if I try to update gmail [v.4.1.2 (403)], I get this error."The package file was not signed correctly. Uninstall the older copy of the application and try again"
I can not solve the problem by deleting the apk from system/data, with the uninstall feature of Titanium Backup, and also with flashing ROM !!!
I have currently installed Toldo JB ICS ROM
How can I fix?
Thanks
PS
Forgive me for "english google"

[Q] Rooted and flashed new ROM, unable to download from Market?

Sorry - not enough posts to post in development thread.
Anyway, I rooted and installed Das Bamf 1.2.1 tonight and everything's fine on it. Only problem is that I can't install anything Google related from the market - everything downloads fine, but the installation comes up as unsuccessful. I have tried clearing out cache/data for Market, as well as uninstalling updates, but that doesn't help.
Any ideas?

before installing this rom, did you do a full wipe? wipe data/cache/delvik cache?
If the google apps were modded or changed or signed when they baked the rom you will have this problem because all google apps are signed by googles own signing key. So wait for the rom dev to update their rom or use a different rom or delete the google apk in system/app folder and download

Facebook issues

I tried to update the Facebook for Android app in the market to the newest version just now, but after it downloaded it wouldn't install, saying something about the package not being signed correctly (or something along those lines). So I decided to try to uninstall my current Facebook first and then install the new one thinking that would work. I backed up Facebook using Titanium Backup and uninstalled it. Then I went to the market and downloaded it again. However, it wouldn't install once again (saying "Incompatible update" this time). So I think, OK whatever, I'll just restore my old Facebook, which worked fine. But when I try to restore it using Titanium Backup, that won't work either! It just says "Application not installed." So what do I do? This is the first time that Titanium Backup wouldn't restore something for me. Has anyone had this problem before? Thanks in advance.
I'm rooted, running CM7 Stable, MattedBlues theme, and faux123 CFS kernel.
I'm not sure if this will help you. Here is a copy of the facebook APK, version 1.5.2, before the last update that messed everything up.

Weirdest thing ever. I rebooted my phone and my old facebook was back! No Titanium Backup or anything, it was just there. Except the icon didn't have the MattedBlues theme like it did before (which is odd). Not gonna try updating again obviously, since it works now.
Thanks for the apk though, that's what I would have tried if it didn't magically appear.

Even with the old version of FB, it stops all the fc's but still wont sync the contacts

Hmmm, I haven't had problems syncing contacts. I have noticed that you need to go back in and select it after the intial setup for the settings to 'stick' though.
Also the offical FB app is horrible. I wish the Bloo developer was still developing.
New FB updated is out! All bug fixes should be fixed now!

[Q] Android Market force close

Hi to everyone,
Sorry for repeating the thread, but I haven't find solution for my problem.
Each time I start Android Market it force close. I tried Android Market v2.2.6, v2.3.6, v3.0.27. I tired to open new gmail account, factory reset, remove SD card, restart, use ZipSigner... and still the same.
Could someone help me?
I have rooted Samsung Galaxy S2, Android Gingerbread v2.3.3, kernel XWKE7.
Best regards!
Wipe phone flash stock firmware via Odin is what i would do .

Also try fixing permissions in CWM that works a lot of the time for FC issues.
Custom rom or theme?
Try cleaning the cache and darlvik cache
Update to a newer stock or custom rom.
Make sure your kernel matches your rom.

Reboot into clockwordmod, advanced, fix permissions, reboot.
Fixing permissions usually (not all the time) does work, other than that i would do a full wipe and start afresh.

Hi to everyone,
I made official update of my ROM (according to product code seems that it is now for my country) and got pre installed Android Market that is working.
Everything is fine now.
Thank you for your time and effort.
Best regards!
Hello,
I'm a noob and in need of desperate help. I recently flashed my SGS2 with CM 7.1 I installed all the Gapps and at first it all ran fine. But now the Market keeps on force closing on me with the errors:
com.android.vending has stopped unexpectedly please try again
android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly.
I am unable to install/download any apps that I desperately need.
Steps taken:
clear Cache and data
flashed Gapps
Try selecting Language to English (Canada)
downloaded another Marketplace.apk
I am stumped and I don't know what else I can do.
Updating to a newer stock or custom rom will do it for sure
Hey Guys,
i have the following same problem:
Phone: i9001
ROm: MIUI Framework GFAN LUffy ROm
Kernel: [email protected]
XXKPK 2.3.6
Everything is working fine except the market.
The ROM comes without googleMarket.
Ive installed the market via *.apk 3.*.15
Everytime i start the app it loads...after couple seconds, Force Close.
I ve reinstalled the ROm etc,
Wiped Data, Rooted, Wipe Cache , fixed permission, Wiped dalvik cache, reinstalled the market...
Same again...Force Close..
I uninstalled the market via Root Uninstaller,
then reinstalled,
started the app....after a while it loaded the screen of the market, i saw the homescreen of the market. Then i tried to download something "whattsapp" whatever....., same again, FC...
Anybody who has experiences with this issue?
ForceCloses at market?
Thanks
Like Markoldfield said, updating to a stock or newer custom rom will solve it.
had the same issue yesterday after the russian email update mess, the only thing that worked for me was restoring an old version of market with TI
I think i know the answer since i had the same problem that i removed the download app and the download provider
so you get them back or reflash the rom

Hi there,
Is anyone still encountering FC/not dowloading apps for Playstore or market, it might also be the cause of new partition or something like that , you can try this option freely..
1. check if cache folder has "download" folder inside it, if it no download folder then create one inside /cache, e.g. mkdir /cache/download.
2. then chmod the /cache folder to 777, also make sure the com.android.vending folder is present inside /data/data/ folder.
3. You can achive it through shell terminal.
Hope this helps you guys fix the FC(Force close or not downloading apps on playstore or market).
Hit thanks if it helps.
Thanks

[Q] Google Music Assistance

Hoping someone could help:
I am running nightly 4/22 with gapps 4/22 I have never been able to load the google music app from the store. I am currently running the stock ICS music.apk. If I try to install the new google music i get the "Package file was not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again"... If I delete the music.apk or uninstall via apps or TI Backup and try to install the new version from the store I get "Application already exists". Does anyone have any clue why I am stuck in this stupid cycle...
I found the following via google support: If you receive the "Package file was not signed correctly" error, this is because your device is not on a user build. If your device is on a "userdebug" build with "test-keys" in the build description, the Google Play Music update will not be able to be installed from Google Play at this time.
Dont know if this applys to cm9 or not as I dont understand any of the above. I beleive I had heard of people running this app on CM9, so I assume its my machine specifically.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

UPDATE- I downloaded the newest google play music .apk and renamed to music.apk. I took the stock apk and replaced with the new one within the rom zip. re flashed rom and it worked. Unfortunately it doesn't show I have purchased via the google store, so it will never update itself. I will probably have to do this edit anytime I flash a new rom.
I have tried changing the apk name and it doesnt work. Also went to store and tried to install the app on top of the one loaded and it just sticks on "installing"
At least its working for now.

[Q] Remove Gmail app from rooted device

GS3 (d2att) running Clockworkmod and Cyanogenmod 11-20140812-nightly-d2lte
Attempting to install blacked out version of Gmail but need to remove existing version of Gmail but I get the error "an existing package by the same name with a conflicting signature is already installed."
My search came up with most folks looking to remove their Gmail account not the app. The few I saw trying to remove the app were not rooted. Surely I am not the first person with this issue.
So I tried to remove Gmail with Titanium Backup but it just reinstalls itself automatically without prompting.
Tried to freeze then uninstall with no change.
Turned off my data and wifi and still have the same result.
Removed my Google account but still the same result.
What am I doing wrong? I just want to remove Gmail and install a different version. I have never had so much trouble.
Thx.

I'd use a file Explorer and go into two different folders. System/app and data/app if you find anything labeled Gmail delete it and reboot. That should solve your problem
