I try to install an application and for some reason can't hit the install buttons. It just won't work, but the cancel button does. Doesn't make sense... Any help necessary, unrooted. Latest version.

Some questions for you.. what is the exact firmware version that are you using? Do you have allow unknown sources checked in the settings menu? Are you using any permission manager apps such as xprivacy? What version of Towel root do you have and tell us what steps you used to try installing towel root?
.
Its nothing of those things. This occurs when an app uses an overlay to cover the entire screen. Some apps that use an overlay will do this. So if you are using an app that requires the permission "draw over other apps" then it could be that app. Do you know of any apps that have a "floating" feature to them? Or an app that may be detecting full screen?

Hi!
I have installed the MIUI Rom in my Razr, but I can not make the ROOT, I follow the steps here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756659, but when I try upgrade the su binary in the Superuser app, I get the message that access ROOT was not allowed.
What am I doing wrong?
One question: in step 6, says: "Install the Busybox PRO and choose root access."
Where is this option? I don't see.
Thanks!

I am a Chinese user, I did not expect the miui development turned out to foreign countries, if we use the version of miui same, I think I can answer your question.After installing the software needs root privileges (for example, titanium backup), the phone will automatically ask whether to open root privileges.

I use the English version, and when I install a new app, any option for ROOT appear.
You needed install the Superuser app?

I do not see any of these options.
In the desktop page 2, there is a folder called Security Centre.
In this folder, have the apps: Network Assist, Anti Virus, Security, Backup, App Control, Permission Manager and a chinese app.

Ok guys, in the Superuser options, I change the "Automatic action" to "Allow" (before he was in "Request", but I was not consulted for root permissions).
Problem solved, I would prefer that I be asked, but if there is no other way...

I think in my case the LBE Guard was changed to "Permission Manager", since, from what I saw, both do the same things.
Thanks to those who tried to help me.

Root your phone and install the Google gallery again.
Or look for the stock gallery on this forum.
If you don't want to root your phone backup what you can,and do a factory reset.

GoogleGallery.apkm is a system app..system apps are not meant to be installed..they are not signed so cannot be installed in the normal way..to use a system app you will need root...after you are rooted move the apk to /system/app forder and give rw-r--r-- permission and reboot..

I can´t install applications (apk) to the tablet. I am running 4.1.2 Kernel 3.0.31 - 767276. I have allowed the unknown sources in the security tab, but when hitting in the apk application, I got the install/cancel option, whne hitting install, the tablet doesn´t accept the option. If I hit cancel, it just cancel the installation. What should I do to be able to install apk?
Thanks

First, you posted on the wrong thread. (I already reported your post to be moved) Second, are you using an SIII or a tablet? Quite confused here.
I am using a tablet to post this message, but the problem is with the SGS3

Screenshot of the problem?
Do you have screen filter because it has the problem of not allowing users to press install if it is enabled. Simple solution is just to disable it (if you have it in the first place).

if u are referring to apk files you've not been able to install, download app 'easy installer ' or 'apkinstaller' from play store. easy installer is better as it scans your phone and shows you all apks present.. then click install.. if not, use apkinstaller
R: [Q] Can´t Install Applications (apk)
I dont get what ure problem is....if u mean that u try to install but then u get an error app couldnt be installed u need to install logcat fron the store and it will show you what happens when ure installing. Usually its because the app left traces in ure phone, u need to go and delete them(logcat will tell u where) and then u will be able to install.
U need root!

Run the same Xposed installer app that you used to install it. It will have an uninstall option.
You need to do that step first before using the Android uninstaller so that it reverts changes to executable system files. After the Xposed installer app reverses those changes it is safe to go to the settings menu > applications > application manager > downloaded, select the Xposed entry if it is still listed and click on the application manager uninstall button this time.
.
There have been many threads posted about this already. You need to edit your build.prop and set secure storage to false.
Is it worth using the app at all if I am not root? I do not plan to do so for awhile so I want to use the app as it is but is there any real value in attempting to save my battery?

If there's no root the only benefit you lose is; practically nothing. The boost mode is the one that offers so much. The "non-root" feature is there for a reason. I believe, it will benefit you :good:

Thanks, this can easily be uninstalled if it fails to benefit me right? I know there is this auto-hibernation mode but I was reading the description about having no lock screen for it to work. I currently use the fingerprint scanner on my Note 4 so I am not sure if Greenfiy will work with this.
Is there any difference between the root and non-root mode aside from the automation differences?
Does root mode also force close apps in the background to achieve app hibernation or is it a different method from the non-root mode?
i cannot figure out how to uninstall greenify (non-root). Uninstall button in play store is not there - only deactivate is shown and brings an error that some administrative thing needs to be removed first? I cannot clear cache or stop the greenify service in the App list because its all greyed out. Please can somebody help me?

Settings, Device Administraor. Uncheck Greenify. That is what "deactivate" means.
Additionally, if necessary, switch off Greenify in SETTINGS>Accessibility before uninstalling though it may not be necessary.

The hibernation method used in both modes should be almost identical IMO. A possible delay of reopening a greenified app should occur in both modes, as the greenified app's process needs to be recreated. However, the root mode brings a few more benefits which could be inferred according to the root exclusive options provided in the "Experimental features" option.
since this thread is about(ishhhh ) root, i have a quick question concerning v2.5 final, doesnt greenify need root permission anymore? i installed the lastest version in a fresh installed rom, selected some apps to greenify but even in root or boost working mode, it didnt ask to give root permissions. so i ask, is this normal in this version?

Did you enable the options in Experimental Mode that are meant for root?
Also check your Supersu settings to see whether you have enabled the setting for the app to not ask for root permission on updating.
