LCD Advertisement Totem - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone!
My name is Kostas and I am fairly new to android development. I have a big LCD Visual Advertisement Display with Android 4.4.2 and I want to install a basic app that I have made in android studio. I think that this device type does not behave like an ordinary mobile or tablet device does, leading me to some problems.
The app contains an image and the a hello world text. I use Grable to build an unsigned apk.
When I am trying to install it, a pop up window shows up informing me that the it cannot be installed.
What should I do to solve this issue?
According to the device and system information shown in the images, is there a way to root it or import other ROM to it (custom or stock)?
Thank you in advance,
Kostas

Micromax A104

Hello XDA Community,
long time not see..., anyway, i just learned how to root, customized my phone with PussyFap2.5 (Custom Rom) to look like the Android Lollipop 5.0.1 Update. And there one little problem starts to begin. I have the exact same phone, you can call it Mircomax A104 or just Canvas Fire 2. My Android Version was 4.4.2 since i got the Phone. The only problem was, that it had NEVER any Android Update. So i just googled a little bid and found this Custom ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/rom-*****-fap-v2-5-fire-2-t3104349).
My Questions
1. When i go to Setting --> Android Version it say's "5.0.1" and on Model Number "Android One", so my question is, is my Version now still the same (4.4.2) or is it really 5.0.1, cause I don't think so (just a Custom ROM). About the Model Number we dont need to talk :laugh: it's still the one and only A104.
2. On the Original ROM, so when i got the phone fresh out of the package, Vanilla Android 4.4.2. It had on Settings --> Keyboard and Input --> an Application where there was 20 Indian Languages. But ufortunately I dont know it's name or anything about it. I want only this App and no other like Swiftkey, or a cheap App on the PlayStore, because this Keyboard was so good.
3. I found a lilttle "HINT" on question 3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5g9WihZf0Y This guy uses this Keyboard, whats it's name please?
Sincerely
Los Kirat
Use Xperia keyboard its simple and easy to use and also has various features in it
Well hello XDA community members and enthusiastic developers.

Xgody X11 Custom Rom Possible.

Hi There,
I've just got one of these Chinese phones and the stock ROM is terrible, has anyone else had one and put a better version of Android on it? For some reason it is forcing me to install certain apps from some random website rather than the Google Play store, and also if I do manage to install an app it puts the icon in a little box rather than displaying the correct icon. It would be nice to get Cyanogen Mod on it but I can't find it in their supported devices list, I'm hoping that as with most of these Chinese devices it's just a generic device that has been re branded by Xgody and therefore compatible with Cyanogen.
Cheers

{Problem} Running old apk on recent Android versions

Hi everyone!
I'm facing a "big little" problem with an custom made Android app. I don't have code skills so I don't know how to change the code of the appk.
The problem is something like this:
- Have an apk created a few years ago, with the API level 19 (android 4.4). It runs okay at all Android 4, 5 and 6 versions, but since android 7 I can't use it. Is an application that need root privileges to work properly.
There are any simple way to do something that allow me to run that apk on Android <=7 version?
Can't downgrade Android version because the stock version of my actual android phone is the 7.1, can't go lower than that.
Sorry if my question is not well explained, my English is not too great.
Thanks
Cheers.

Don't worry , your English is understandable
I don't think you can run older APK on a newer Android version. Because the API used in this app may be deprecated or something like that.
I'm not sure of the info I provided you here so if someone tell you the opposite , he may be right .

How to spoof identity

A medical device I use since today offers live monitoring by the hospital if the device can connect via an app for ios / android.
Unfortunately, there's a hard-coded list of models the app is compatible with, and refuses to run on other devices.
Is there any way to fake a model number? Eg: let my oneplus2 using lineageos 17 fake a galaxy s8 with android 10?
I know, this could be used the wrong way, but believe me, it is as pure as described here
If device's Android is rooted then you can edit its system file named build.prop accordingly.

Micromax Dual 5 (E4820) Issue

Hi,
I have a Micromax Dual 5 (E4820) smartphone. The phone hardware is actually good. However, there are certain software things in it that I am concerned about. It will be great if someone could provide some solutions/details.
The thing is, this phone is actually a rebranded version of a Chinese smartphone "Qiku 360 Q5" and it has an Android Chinese OS (Marshmallow 6.0.1) version which is called as 360 OS. It seems that this OS has been developed by Qihoo 360.
I came to know that this OS has a malware but I am not 100% sure. Here is the link to the actual post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...inge-ad-system-application-on-mt6735.4208933/
Now the things I need help with:
Does this OS really have a malware?
When I connect this device to the PlayStore, the app automatically updates itself. In normal Android version there is an option to uninstall PlayStore updates by going to App Info section. However, the 360 OS doesn't show the three "..." dots at the top right corner. Is there any way to uninstall the PlayStore updates?
I actually did not like the 360 OS and its UI at all. Hence I thought to replace it with a custom ROM which is closer to normal Android OS. I searched for it on the XDA forum but couldn't find any that can be installed on this device. Is there any Custom ROM available for this device?
If there is no Custom ROM, is there any way to replace the default Settings app that (comes with the 360 OS) so that I have more control on the APPs and their settings and permission ?
Can this phone be Rooted safely to have more control on this device and apps?
It will be great if someone could shed some light on the above mentioned things/issues.
Thanks in advance.
