Hi,
I am using htc explorer a310 and due to limited space i am unable to download whatsapp by upgrading play store and therefore i have tried to directly download the apk file to my phone from several websites including the whatsapp website but it didn't work. Every time i install an .apk file it either says "Application not installed" or it gets installed and when i open the app it says the version is old and an upgrade is required which is also not practicable as it would require an upgraded play store.
Please help me with a latest working apk file for htc explorer a310.
Thanks

Try apkmirror.com
If you still get the "Application not installed" message, backup your Whatsapp data by copying the Whatsapp folder (can be found on your internal storage) to either your SD card or your PC, then uninstall Whatsapp. Afterwards, install the latest version either from Play Store or apkmirror and copy the Whatsapp folder back to your internal storage. Afterwards, start Whatsapp. That's it.

Hi there,am running BEASTSense ROM on HTC Hero. When am trying download from the market it doesn't download. It says your app will be download and that's it. Does anybody knows the answer of that annoying thing ? Reflash the rom doesn't help.
Thanks.
It sounds like you are trying to download the app from the Play Store Webpage..
If that is the case, then after a new flash you need to download at least one app through the market on your phone in order to "link" your phone and the play store account, after which you can close and reopen the play store twice in order for the app to update itself to the latest version.
when it reopens as Play Store and you agree the terms and conditions, it should then work online on the webpage .. or try download another app to link it and try again
The rom I'm running is with market app instaled.Doesn't wont update to google play. If I try install it says "there is a problem with installing the package". Anyway will change the rom probably.Thanks
I have the same issue as the guy in OP, the downloading app just hangs in there in the status bar
Have you tried to wipe market data and cache in Manage Applications. You could try to flash or push an updated market App to replace your current app if you feel the app is broken.. Paraphrasing Icebox from his thread..
You will need to find the market apk you want to push (i guess that's from Froyo version) and copy/paste it into /system/app by using a file manager that has root access - Es File Explorer is great for this but you'll need to grant root access from Settings (Es File Explorer settings that is) and then perform the copy/paste action in /system/app.
The market is named Vending.apk and the one you'll copy should need to have the same name.. ..
Good luck, or try a different Rom.. etc

Will try to do so, thanks.:good:
With the app DicePlayer I want to stay at version 2.0.53, because from 2.0.54 on AC3 support was removed.
To not accidently update to a version >2.0.53 (e.g. by hitting Update All) I've used the function Detach from Market that is offered by Titanium Backup.
Unfortunately this detachment is being resetted on every reboot of the phone (Nexus 5 with 4.4.4).
Is there a way to permamently detach an app from Android Market?

Hi, I realise this is an old post but it's something I've been trying to do for a while too. I've finally accomplished it successfully so I thought I'd share it on in some of the topics.
It works by changing the apk signature so the app typically becomes 'different' to the one on the Google Play Store and therefore doesn't appear in your Google Play Store list. But by doing this, you won't be able to update the app from Play Store.
How to:
Need Root.
First do a TB backup of current apk just to keep it.
With a file explorer, go to root\data\app and copy the app apk that you want to change and paste it somewhere on SD card.
Now uninstall the app
Download and install: ZipSigner by Ken Ellinwood from Play Store.
Open ZipSigner, choose input file and navigate to earlier copied apk
I used key/mode: auto-testkey
Sign the file
The new signed apk will be put in the same directory the original file was.
Now install that signed apk and your're done. Check market.
Worked for me - hope it works for you!
Thanks. Unfortunately, doesn't work with Barclays UK app. Has this worked with this app for anyone? thnx
I use SKK Phoenix+ Tablet.

First of all i downloaded KingRoot Super User, so i root my phone. I used it to remove these system applications that i can't disable and uninstall. The virus installed several Download Manager system app to download some viruses and ads on my phone (which got me on a rampage). I had to remove all of the fake ones until i accidentally removed the original Download Manager that my phone used to download from Google Play and other sources. I downloaded a Download Manager from the internet (same OS and version as the old one) and i tried to test it out by Downloading a random game on Google Play. After several minutes, a pop-up says "android.process.media has stopped" and then Error (942) will pop-out at my Google Play. I can't post a screenshot of it because Media Storage wont work and it wont let me take pictures, download, screenshot or even view Gallery. Does anyone know how to fix this? or maybe provide me a firmware of my tablet? It would be helpful and a big thank to you all
I'm sorry, it's my first time fixing and root this tablet.
Clear ur google play data. This might work or not. And u shouldnt have deleted those stock apps.
