I had this apk app (Package Disabler Pro) recommended on lifehacker.com in order to disable automatic system updates on Android. The problem is I either can't find it, or find it on a site that won't download it, or says it has it but doesn't, etc. etc. etc.... always some problem. Or ... I find it on a site that I've little confidence as to their credibility. Does anyone here know of a site that has this apk actually available, or that has one that is truly comparable? Any help appreciated. Thanks.

A follow up.... I did actually find it, and successfully download it and install it. (Thanks to someone on here in another thread recommending apkvision.com.) But it's requiring to have access to my media and images... is that normal?

I've just checked market typed chrome & its first on list.
Also check your location with Market Place as some countries will not show all the apps that US or UK will show...
I downloaded the apk from google's dev site and copy it to my device. After that install the apk file using default package manager and it works.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
remember to download the plugin for your browser too
I am experiencing a weird issue, that I have not yet found a solution for.
I have been using a different media player for a while, and have decided I want to use Google Play Music again.
When I try to install from the market, I get an error "Application already exists..."
Well, no it doesn't it.
I tried downloading the APK to install directly outside the market,
but the package installer gives another error: "X Application not installed"
So, which is it? Is it already installed, or is it not installed?
I think there is a file somewhere on this phone that makes it think Google Play Music is already there,
but for the life of me I cannot find it.
I tried opening the APK to see if the contained files are already on the phone somewhere,
but I am not having any luck.
Can anyone help here?

You tried wiping?
or you maybe pushed an app to system, without changing permissions. the app will be installed, kinda.
I'd wipe.

Yeah, I am sure wiping will resolve the issue, however I still do not know the cause, so I am worried if I go through all the trouble of a full wipe I may unwittingly reproduce the same error later anyway.
I did not try to push an app to system...
In digging around I don't find any java packages that refer to music. This has me scratching my head.

Try going into system and looking for the google play music apk. maybe its there but just corrupted.
Reboot your phone. Had the same problem on my tab .
Thanks for trying guys. Nothing worked... factory reset did the trick.
On the positive side, a full restore using TBU (including system data) when not changing roms is quite effective

I had the same problem with sywpe at one time. Even though the .apk was removed from /system/apps AND from /data/apps it still thought it was installed. Turned out
it was a file in /system/lib . If yer still interested in how it happened for ****s and giggles that may be it.

I've tried several suggestions listed in the Forum, the engines do not show up in the Play Store, when you try and go to the pages by following links posted here it says item not found. I want to try and run package disabler Pro which says that it does not need any plug in, it gives me error 204. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I am assuming you did the search via the Google Play client installed on your phone. I went to the Google Play website, logged in, and did a search for both successfully. Try it and see if you can install that way.

Have you tried to open the app on your phone? If I remember correctly, the app will recognize that you don't have the plugin/addin and re-direct you to install.

Package disabler Pro is still giving me this mysterious error 204, I have emailed the developer and I hope that he will be able to send me a response, installing the file that he links to on his website called Pdpengine3.Apk does not do anything at all.
As for BK disabler, I installed it and indeed it does ask me to install the engine. When I click on install engine it simply brings me through a Google Play page that says item not found. I'm so sad but I guess there is not more that can be done at this moment? Either way thank you for your help. If you have any more ideas I would be happy to try them.
You need to install the MDM extension app
hi, i formatted my S9+ just when BK Manager and MDM Extension apks were removed from Play Store.
my question is, i have both of these apks files in my storage, will i be able to install them manually and whether the disabler app will still work as it was before? can someone kindly advise?
i have emailed the developer a couple of times asking the same questions, but not getting any response or help and was never my intent to ask for a refund.
File 1. com-kunkunsoft-packagedisabler1515128400
File 2. MDM_Extension_2_Full
as for the time being, is there any other good disabler app that we can use safely? i feel so lost without this app/feature.
thank you.

If you have the complete apks you can certainly try and see if BK Manager installs properly - I don't see why both the Manager & MDM extension wouldn't?
This is the second time that this app (previously known as BK Disabler) has been removed... Hopefully it will re-emerge as a new app again? ?

Hola, encontraste solucion?, me paso exactamente lo mismo, aunque tenia las app guardadas las volvi a instalar pero ya no funcionan.
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?

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
