I have installed Apps2SD on my rooted Sony M4 which is working quite well.
The one problem i have is that i cannot install app that i previously had. I had to uninstall it but now want it back.
From the Play store, I get an error 504. I have also got a APK of it but it does not install.
I suspect there are previous files left behind when I had the app.
How do i fix this?

Ususally this happens when you installed that app earlier and did not uninstall it properly. the actual culprit is the App data which remained and is not getting wiped off and the installer is unable to remove or copy on that file. Hence the error message.
Hope this helps
search /data/app for any odex files, usually deleting them will allow you to install it again.
Yes,like 2 friends above mention. I ever have this problem before after install some app and uninstall it but some file still hide in hidden folder and I want to install that app again(new version) the phone tell me that it has insufficient mem. This is my solution. Install root explorer(you need rooted phone) go to sd/data/app and find the file "xxx.xxxx.odex" and delete it(xxxx stand for the name of that app name). After that I can install that app again with no problem.
If you used LP, as said before, some odex may have been left behind. Running
LP again will clean those files...
Hi!
I use a Note 2, and was able to install apks perfectly fine until this afternoon, now i'm unable to click "install" , it isn't greyed out or anything.
I know screen filter and similar apps have a bug which doesn't allow you to click install, so I disabled and uninstalled them just to be sure.
I'm on stock 4.1.2, no software updates of any sort in the last month,weird it suddenly stopped allowing me to install apks
Able to install apps from the play store otherwise.
Any help would be appreciated
Edit- Also rebooted several times, and tried installing apks i've installed before, no dice
And I do have unknown sources checked.
Try uninstalling the last app you installed.
Sent from my Sony Xperia tipo
Well it's fixed, GloveBox was the problem.
Guess any app which has an overlay will be an issue.
OF, thanks anyway!
Pls I seriously need help with my tablet. Sometimes ago, I used the Link2sd app to kink apps to my SD. I linked also the Google play services and my superuser app. When I finished, I then rebooted the device only to find later that the link2sd refused to mount. As a result, all apps I linked refused to display. They just were gray, you can't launch or do anything with them. Most unfortunately, was that the Google play services app and the superuser app could not be found. I could no grant or allow superuser permission for apps any more. I uninstalled the link2sd, rebooted, no way. I cleared data/cache no way of various apps, no way. I tried system reset from seetings, no way and worst now, I can't boot into recovery too to do factory reset. The device won't install apps any more cos the package installer stopped working as well. I cant go to play store or use any app associated with google. Pls I seriously need help. I use the Tecno phantom mini pad also known as tecno p9. Someone pls help. Thanks

Hello everyone reading this!
I hope you can help me with my problem.
My problem is the following thing:
I was having some problems with my play store so i wanted to reinstall it.
So uninstalled Google Play Store with root but the problem is that i couldn't install it again.
(And i only make backups of my boot partition because i don't have so much space to backup data in twrp.)
When i try to install play store again with the latest apk of it then it just crashes. I also tried installing it as system by moving it to /system/app with the correct permissions but still not working. And i also tried it on /system/priv-app but it just disappears there.
I found out that if i use a old version of the play store (9.8.07) then it doesn't crash right away. But i still cannot use it properly. It crashes when trying to install something.
I also found out that if i try to uninstall something with this old version then it doesn't crash right away but it says "uninstalling" forever.
So i think it may be that play store didn't get the permissions that it needs?
I tried so many things but i just don't know how i can fix it. I don't want to do a factory reset or something like that.
Please help me. I just want my good old play store back.
Edit:
I can't even use YouTube. It doesn't allow me to use it without play store. This is much worse than I thought it would be.
My paid apps, substratum, everything i paid for is just broken now.

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!
