Hello, lets start out with the phone... it is a LG Optimus L70 kitkat 4.4.2 (Metro Pcs) stock not rooted (i would like to root)
My problem is that my phone is no longer letting me install APK files. Yes the check box in the settings is checked. I had Terraria on my phone by APK then i deleted it and now i wanted to install it again and now it doesnt want to it says "Application not installed " and its not just that app it is most of my apks. I even downloaded another terraria apk and i cant install. I am probably gonna buy the game anyways but i would still like to be able to download any apk i want like i use to.

Hi all,
I've just rooted my tablet today. In the process of removing bloatware, I accidentally removed Gmail and really need to have the Tablet S's specific Gmail apk file to install it back. It's impossible to install from the market, probably due to the android version.
And hell, why can't Google update the market a tablet version of gmail instead of telling to my face that my device is "incompatible".
Thank you.

Try this link. I cant access the mediafire at work so not sure if it will work.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944069&highlight=gmail+apk
No this can't work. The link you posted are the APKs for Froyo. Tablet S runs Honeycomb, and needs a specialized version for the tablet screen.
I will need someone with a rooted tablet to get the APK for me :-(.
Edit:
I can see that you have a rooted S. Could you mind grabbing the APK named Gmail.apk from /system/app/Gmail.apk and upload somewhere? That'd be great.
Edit:
Installed that random Froyo apk (just so the system are fooled that there is some Gmail app). But running it will lead to the app being forced closed.
However, I used root explorer to replace the Gmail apk with the apk from this:

Have you downloaded it from the market?

No. I use the APK from the link above. You need root explorer to access the system folders.
You can simply replace your current APK with this one, set the right permission and reboot your tablet. That should work.
But back up your original APK - I hold no responsibility if somehow the APK doesn't work on your tablet.

Hello guys!
Does anyone have a car with MyLink system and can't use the BringGO GPS System because your smartphone is incompatible with the app?
So here is my history... my girlfriend have a Onyx with MyLink and she bought a LG Optimus G and was sad because the app isn't compatible with her smartphone.
Today I bought and installed it (BringGo Brazil) on my Motorola Atrix and showed her its working on her car.
Then she asked me why my old phone works and her new one not.
I told her that's because the compatibility thing and etc... then she say: make it work on my phone and just laugh.
Then I have the idea: get the .apk file from my Atrix and install on her Optimus G.
I downloaded the App Backup & Restore and backed up the bringgo apk.
Sent it to Optimus G and installed.
Then the first surprise: it told me I can't download the resources because I didn't bought the application (with her gmail account).
That's fine, I would need to buy that app from Google Play, but... HOW? it doesn't appear on Google Play in her Optimus G.
Then I had the second idea: put her gmail account on my Atrix and buy the BringGo Brazil with her account. Note: I just added her account on my Atrix, but I bought the APP from Google Play on computer, because it was already installed on Atrix.
On computer, I bought the app BringGo Brazil and choose my Motorola Atrix to install.
Then I back to her Optimus G and opened the BringGo Brazil again.
Second surprise: it works!!! It was working and I create an account for her and everything was okay... until...
Third surprise: while downloading the map files, when decompressing, it gave me a lot of errors, then I downloaded it again and again... and again... and again... if I remember, it was about 10 times. Every time it downloaded and tried to decompress, the progress bar was increasing, showing that it will work...
Fourth surprise: it works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay, if you read everything, you don't need another guide, right?
If you don't, here we go:
GUIDE:
1 - Get a smartphone that you can download the BringGo you will use (there is alot of versions, USA & CAN, 2 Europes, AU & NZ, Korea, China, Brazil, etc...)
2 - In this smartphone you will need to add you gmail account that you USE in your main smartphone. (Note: if you plan to remove your account from that smartphone, you should backup the current rom because your account can't be removed until factory reseted.)
3 - Buy, download and install the BringGo you want.
4 - Download and install the app "App Backup & Restore".
5 - Open the App Backup & Restore and backup the BringGo apk.
6 - With a file manager or whatever, copy that backup .apk and send it to your MAIN Smartphone.
7 - Install in your Main smartphone the BringGo app and create an account.
8 - Install the map files and PROFIT. (if you have problem to decompress the map files, redownload the maps again and again, it will works, believe me!)
Hope you guys will like the guide and will be happy again with your MyLink working with GPS now
Not bad for the first thread, uh?
NOTE: who try the trick, please report if it worked for you!

I did this before I saw your guide.
I confirm that it works, I used "device spoofer" on my Samsung Galaxy S4 to be able to download is directly from the play store. It worked fine. however, once installed the app still recognizes the device not to be a "compatible one" and restricts some of the functions such as latest map download etc...
But it is acceptable for now. Until they provide more device support. If ever.
Hi everyone,
I used the following way to connect my Lg Optimus G with my Cruze Mylink System (although the bring go guys informed me that my device isn't supported from technical point of view).
You have to:
- root your device (following tutorials wide available via internet)
- use an apk which changes your device name on the google market - I used Device Spoofer - none other apk worked for me from what I tried (I tried with Market Helper but without success)
- after you choose a compatible device (I chose the Samsung Galaxy S2), you can go to google play from your desktop/laptop, press install on the supported device and after paying the apk it will be downloaded to your phone
I got an update on the phone after the application was downloaded (so, it should auto update without problems).
I also checked after installation the app on the car, and I tried to go on my home city in Romania on a street in which the drive signs were recently changed (2-3 weeks ago) and the update included it as well - so, I think it can help everyone on this issue.
Good luck.
If you need some support on the same or similar hardware as mine, give me an email. I will be glad to help you out

please can any one attached the apk?

Hi,
I don't know what apk you are talking about. You need to use 2 apks.
The one for spoofing the device is free on Play store.
The Bring Go application is 1$ on Play Store. I can't help you with this apk file. I tried downloading it from the Play store but without success.
There are some apk versions on the internet but I haven't managed to download them.
Cheers

What is the first apk you need
Hi Everyone,
So apparently after updating my XA2 Ultra to android 9.0 I am unable to install the themes I used
via APK. I read on the internet that this is something Sony is disabling for some reason.
Does anyone know a way to install a theme using the APK file and not from the Google Pay store?
Every time I try to Install them It just tells me that it couldn't be install and that's it.
Any help will be appreciate it.
Thanks everyone.

Hi,
I used to have the same problem, for *some* APKs even on 8.0. What i did (not sure what caused the problem, actually) was:
1) Enable unknown sources via dev. menu
2) Disable the Play Protect and built-in antivirus(es), e.g. AVG
3) Disable app checking from Google options (this might be tricky, because the app itself didn't show me this option, bit it came up eventually, don't remember how, i think when you try to install the .apk via ES or some other file explorer.)
Now it gives me the "App not installed" or "Unable to install" only when i try to update an app that was not originally installed from the Play Store, but (for example Aptoide or other Black Market store) it can be remedied by simply uninstalling the old app and install the new one.
Hope this helps. Good luck!
I want to be very clear that I have no problem paying for apps, supporting developers and that sort of thing. I recently installs VMOS to spoof my location in an app.. a dating app that is free, and also for free the app allows you to browse users in other parts of the world.
However I wondered if I could do the same thing with Tinder.
The issue I've ran into is I cannot get Tinder to install within VMOS.
So my main/actual phone is a Samsung Galaxy Note 10 + running android 9.
And the fake/vmos is 1.0.49
I uninstalled tinder on my main phone, went to google and found a website where I could download tinder 11.6.0 apk… but I needed something called SAI (split apk installer)
So I downloaded the apk, then opened the files within SAI and tinder installed and works without a problem....
However when I go to my fake phone and download the same files from the same sources tinder does not install and gives an error pretty much saying "failed to install- app not installed- Application is incompatible with this device"
I am obviously not sure what the exact reason is which is why I'm here.
When I tell it I want more details as to why it did not install I get "java.lang.Exception: application is incompatible with this device at com.aefyr.sai.installer2.impl.rootless.RootlessSaiPiBroadcastReceiver.onReceive(RootlessSaiPiBroadcastReceiver.java:57)
at android.app.LoadedApk$ReceiverDispatcher
$Args.run(LoadedApk.java:908)
at
android.os.Handler.handleCallback(Handler.java:739) at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:95)
at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:135)
at android .os.HandlerThread.run(HandlerThread.java:61)
Obviously that doesn't really tell me anything in particular.. because I don't have much programming/script knowledge.
But it makes me feel there are protections in place to keep people from doing what I'm trying to do.
So if anyone is willing to help that would be awesome!
I'm unable to get the app to install via the play store.. because it doesn't even show up there by searching directly.
But when I follow a link to bring up the app within the play store it just pretty much says it's not compatible.
So is it because of protections being in place... something wrong with my vmos environment or what?
When I tried installing it on fake phone I had root turned off along with developer options also turned off.
I had install apps from unknown sources turned on.
I'm not sure what other info to provide...
I can get the same apk to work on the real phone and install..
Just unable to get it to install on vmos.
I tried File Transportation in vmos and that didn't work either... it times out or whatever.
So in general... whether it be tinder or whatever app.. how do you get something to install when play store says incompatible and file trapsportation does not work?
Maybe the apk file I have is in fact incompatible with something within vmos??
I tried some stuff within xxxxx but was still unable to get the app I mentioned earlier to install. Not really sure what needs modified/patched or whatever.
any ideas please? how does someone get an app to install within vmos that doesn't seem to want to?
Working
Hi, install aptoide the install tinder version 9.8.0 it works for me.

What I usually do is use the root permissions in vmos to force install the apk as a system app through lucky patcher. Before doing this I would reccomend making sure that the version you are using is compatible with the vmos android os version you are running before attempting and that the package isn't considered corrupted. Also please note that when installing an apk as a system app it becomes difficult to uninstall. If you'd want to remove the icon then you would need to disable the package also through lucky patcher. I'm just throwing the idea out there and I'm not sure this solution would work for any other so hopefully it'd work for you.
Has anyone had any luck getting vmos running on an android 9 device??
If so pls let me know so I don't waste too much time trying I tried the standard one and it didn't work so I'm downloading the pro version which will take a long time
I recently upgraded from an Android 7 phone (Moto G5) to an Android 9 phone (Moto G7). I like to back up all of my apps that I plan on using in the future, using a backup app like ML Manager, and installing them locally with a file browser, like FX. On my new phone, there are some APK backups that I can't install from a file browser; even if I actually download them though the Google Play Store, back them up, uninstall them, and then try to install that backup on the same phone, it won't work. Not every app does this, and at first, I thought it was only paid apps that were giving me problems, so I chalked it up to DRM, but a bunch of free apps won't work, either.
I've tried alternate methods of installation, too, like using a terminal emulator (see the screenshot, using the app Manual Camera as an example), and ADB on a PC, which results in an INSTALL_FAILED_VERIFICATION_FAILURE error. I've searched for this error and followed directions, like disabling Play Protect (which I never enabled on this phone, anyway), but nothing works. Is this just how Android is now? Did something change so that it's harder to install backups? I tried all of this on my wife's phone, too, which also runs Android 9, and I got the same errors. Any help would be appreciated, because I'm out of ideas. Thanks in advance!

Some apps are different for noghat and pie Android
So there is no grantee that you can install all APK that you backed up on noghat for pie
Download them from Google
It should completely work
Make sure that you have free space on internal storage and when you wanna download them make sure that download arm/arm64 version

Yeah, downloading from the Play Store definitely works, I'm just curious as to why backing up an app downloaded from the Play Store won't install from the APK *on the exact same device.* I'm a stickler for keeping local backups of everything, but I'm more curious than anything at this point.

Well there is a another reason
That is some app install with APK
And other one install with APKS
which you should install them with SAI and have two or three file to install (even more)
And when you backup from apks apps it doesn't backup all files to install it again
But at play store it install automatically

Holy crap, dude, I had NO idea that split APKs were a thing. I downloaded Split APK Installer from the Play Store, and I can make and restore local backups again. Thank you so much for the info, it was exactly what I needed!
