Just confirming.... Have you allowed installation from unknown sources?
And what happens when you install an app? Does it give you an error message or just crash?

yes i have enabled allowed installation from unknown sources.
it doesn't blocks app installation. it just doesn't installs it ..
no crash or anything. it enables the install button and when i click on install it says app not installed .
Weird
indeed it is. even more worried that no one else is facing this issue.

Sir! Have you tried installing different gaps? Often the case I find with some roms.
Check if "Package Installer" has proper permissions (storage). Had a similiar issue once, too, and it didn't have storage permission. I don't know why though, never had this issue again after that.

Hi there,
I'm running cyanogenmod 11 on my s3 and I'm having difficulty updating/installing whatsapp. I had whatsapp installed and was told I needed to update the app otherwise it'd stop working. I didn't update in time and sure enough it stopped working. I tried to update the app to continue using it but it said I had insufficient storage available. I've got plenty of storage space on both my SD (internal) and external cards and I've checked every partition and there's lots of space. The issue does not seem to relate to lack of space.
Since then I've tried everything to get it working, first uninstalling the app and reinstalling, deleting everything manually through root explorer, then wiping the cache and davik cache, odexing all my apps and then removing all the odex files through lucky patcher. Nothings worked. Unfortunately it doesn't let me use lucky patcher troubleshoot which I've heard works. Everytime I press on troubleshoot in lucky patcher it says I need to update busybox and install supersu, which I've done plenty of times to no avail.
Please can anyone help out. I'm fearing that I'm going to have to restore everything. If anyone knows how to get the troubleshoot in lucky patcher working or just fix my whatsapp issue all together that'd be great. Thanks!
Can anyone help with this?
Thanks.

Did you do a hard reset?

Not yet. I'm trying to avoid that if possible because I'm currently abroad and away from my computer. A hard reset would put me back onto stock wouldn't it? Is there any other solution out there?
Hi!!
I just upgraded to lollipop. Everything is fine and dandy, except for one thing, the error mentioned in the tittle. I have apk backups of most of my apps and when i try to install them, my phone shows parsing error. I flashed 2 roms, same thing in both. I tried them on different phones with lollipop installed, same thing there too. However, the apks install perfectly in kitkat and jellybean. I'm sure other lollipop devices are facing the same thing. Installing from google drive isn't helping either. I couldn't find a solution anywhere else. Anyone know of a fix for this? Or at least a reason? Anything, any bit of info at all would be helpful. Please and thankyou!

The apps are outdated most likely and not able to be run on 5.0+ you will have to contact the app developer.

Thank you for your reply!! This was driving me crazy.
Btw, if you use lollipop, do you know how to hide the message/ mail preview that are auto expanded in the notification panel? Both these issues are major turnoffs and i'm thinking of reverting back to kitkat.
Hi. I'm using CM12.1 with my quark (xt1254). Using a clean install method if I flash cm with a current gapps build (tried 1/29/16 & 1/30/16) the play store will not download apps over approx 25 MB. Play store downloads the app to 99%, restarts the download, then fails with error 963. Small apps are unaffected. Using the exact same method, but with an open gapps from 12/08/15
https://www.dropbox.com/s/e7a48os7ucj014p/open_gapps-arm-5.1-stock-20151208.zip?dl=0
, works perfectly fine. Just thought I'd see if anyone had any thoughts as to what's up. Ideas, contents, suggestions appreciated.
sd card
I had the same problem . I disconnected the SD card and now it all seems to be working again . It is not a permanent solution but a temporary solution , I hope
Hopefully it works .

I think the issue is related to the way CM12 chooses the default install location for you. The newer gapps builds may have triggered something, but I believe the root of it to be the default installation location. Please see this post for a possible permanent solution.

Negative results. Bummer.

No joy after changing the default location? Which way did you use to change the location? Did it give you any messages? it shouldn't have, if it worked, it should just have returned a prompt.
Just to be on the safe side, I would load the gapps file that you mentioned was working in the past, and change the default location before trying any of the apps. If you already have it all loaded up, then yes, I'd also recommend you clear the cache and data from the playstore and playservices apps.
Don't know if you're using opengapps, but I took a look at their most recent builds and noticed that the file size changed slightly after 01/20/2016, so your reasoning has merit.
If you happen to be using TWRP, you could also try changing the location from recovery. Advanced -> Terminal Command -> Select and then enter the command. I really hope this helps.
I used the su terminal method. The location was definitely changed from 0 (auto) to 1 (internal). Behavior did not change at all. I am using open gapps and the working/not working is across builds (aroma thru nano/pico). Date of build appears to be the only determining factor. I originally thought size of the app mattered, but in talking with other users that seems to be less of an issue than previously thought. Also, apps that do not download from the play store cannot be side loaded either.

Ugh. I was able to recreate the behavior you're experiencing on a 2012 Nexus 7 - the only device I have access to with no SD card slot. I used the last two nightlies of CM12 and opengapps from two days ago, and also the one I mentioned from 1/20. Always had the behavior when downloading large apps, and as you say, apps not from the playstore. And yes, same behavior whether I used nano, pico, et. al.
The behavior disappears once I flash the latest nightly with the gapps from 1/20 AND change the default location. I wish I had more to give you, but since we're using different devices, there is a chance something else is different in the builds.

No worries! Since I found a working older gapps I'm inclined to let this go for now.
Which older version did you install? I'm running into this issue.
See link in op.
Hello,
I have same 963 error issue on my both cm 12.1 devices : Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7 (2012).
I tried on my Galaxy to "pm set-install-location 1" but it don't solved the issue.
(delete the play store app cache and data don't work)
Can you provide me the link to this Gapps, it is not working anymore

Try this. Turns out the problem is a Google play issue. One of the devs (baybutcher) posted this and I can confirm it fixed my issue. It downgrades Google play to a working version. If you are a doing a clean install just flash after gapps. If trying to fix an existing install make sure to uninstall all Google play updates then try flashing.

Did s/he mention when it will be fixed?
If you're looking for a version of Open GApps that doesn't have the double download fail with error 963. Then you should install Open GApps 2016.01.05. Don't install the 2015.12.08 version if you're using CyanogenMod! You'll end up breaking WebView on your rom if you do. You can find an Older Version option on the Open GApps Web Site and get the version I mention from there.
As others may have mentioned you can temporarily dismount your SD Card as a work around to this issue, but I preferred to downgrade rather than having to do that every time I used the Google Play Store.
As I understand the issue it's not a bug with Open GApps itself but a bug with the Google Play Store, apparently but I haven't confirmed any version of Google Play above 6.0.5 can have this issue.

This fixed the issue for me, and I was able to install the 2 problematic apps. Strangely, I had no trouble installing some other apps, namely made by my operator (MEO music and MEO drive), which leads me to think it might be related to locale.
However, now I can't search the play store, as it force closes when tapping the search box :/
Best thread ever.
Finally it works.
Thanks everyone
Hi,
In the last few days, I've been testing several ROMs on my Mi Pad 4: MIUI, AOSP-based ROMs (such as LineageOS) and Mokee, which (for some reason) my unit came preinstalled with.
I've noticed that some things don't work on some custom ROMS, but do work on others. For example: encryption, MTP and the notification light work on Mokee but don't work on AOSP-based ROMs, and double tap to wake works on MIUI but doesn't work on any of the other ROMs.
I've seen some other problems fixed by tweaking build.prop, so maybe there's something in those ROMs' Vendor partitions that can be used to fix those issues in the other ROMs? I'd really like to get everything working when a 9.0 AOSP-based ROM comes out, so... what do you think?
MTP works on mokee? Going to try mokee next.
I think there's not much developers for this device because it's still new and it's not available worldwide.
I saw this on the treble forum, maybe can try.
How to fix mtp:
Enable developer settings (Please google to know if you don't know)
Scroll down to select Default USB Configuration
Select File Transfer

That won't work, it just ignores the preference you set.

The last time I used that ROM Google apps (including the Play Store) would crash on me, leaving the device unusable, so I have to use LOS instead. Have they fixed that?

i never have any problem with playstore or any apps..... did you install gapps separately?
i used this zip file, gapps and roots comes by default.

That's strange, maybe you should try wipe everything and flash again.
Or wait for LOS to upgrade to latest version
