so Facebook updated their Android app. When i try to update, installation was unsuccessful.
Having had to deal with this before....i backup'd w/ TB, uninstalled, restarted, and trying to update again. Same issue (installation was unsuccessful). Now, TB won't let me restore my backup for some reason
Has anyone else experienced this yet or know how to fix it??
Worst case, could someone upload the 1.4 .apk for me?
Thanks guys.

Some ROMs will not allow the update...for instance I'm running Ultimate Droid and launcher pro fails for done reason.
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
*Fixed*
I had to uninstall w/ TB and Reboot. Clear cache/data from market (restart) in order to install.
Then had to fix permissions with rom manager in order to run the app.
Seems like quite a hassle...wonder if anyone else is going through troubles

Market told me there was an update available, I went in and did the manual update and it d/l and installed with no problem. See device info below. We finally get to catch up with the iPhone zombies with "Places"....cant say that I missed it too much.
I'm running Uncommon Sense and I can't update to FB 1.4.0 either. It just says installation unsuccessful. If anyone finds a solution please post.

after it fails in the market, go to astro sdcard/download and instal from there. Thats what i do with all the fail installs. Always works.
Ugh I'm on uncommon sense to, no fix yet guys?
If your facebook apk is in the system/app directory, you may need to manually delete the apk (use Root Explorer), reboot, then try installing Facebook from the market.
(This worked for me with Uncommon Sense)

Another success here with that helpful advice. Thanks!!
I have the option checked to install non market apps, but if I download wifi tether, for instance, from the dev's website, my phone will not even let me click on "install," though I can hit "cancel." I've tried this with a free other apks, such a Swype, volume+, etc. Some allow me to hit install and some do not.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any solutions? Btw, rooted gnex, stock 4.0.2, vzw.

First, I want to thank you for posting your question in the appropriate place. By chance, are you running JuiceDefender? If so, there is a bug that sometimes does not allow a user to install non-market applications without a workaround (you will find it in settings when configuring JuiceDefender). If you're not running JuiceDefender, then I am not sure, sorry .

I'm not. And since my original post, while my phone was laying on the couch, something changed and now I'm able to install those apks I've downloaded. Someone at AndroidForums suggested I side-load apks from my computer, but my only means of wifi is from my phone and wifi-tether was one of those apks that wouldn't install, until just an hour ago. I've had this issue rooted, unrooted, 4.0.1, 4.0.2, and it seems to come and go.
It seems no one else is posting about it anywhere that I can find, so if nothing else I wanted others to know that it is happening.

Pardon my question, but you're not trying to install a .zip, are you? The extension is .apk, right?

Yeah, it's an apk.
Are you trying from downloads or from a file manager? I found download app wouldn't let me install apks

To see the thanks button you must NOT be on the classical theme of the forum. You can change that in UserCP.
if you have the screen filter app, disable it before installing the app....this did it for me. hope this helps
I just went to look for SuperSU in my icon drawer and it is not there. I have checked 4 times and rebooted. I am almost sure it was there last week. All my rooted programs work fine, and SuperSU does show up in Application Manager/All, but not in TB. Is this anything I should be concerned with? I went to SuperSU in the playstore, and there is no option to install. Thx.

There is a zip to install it. QBking77 has it on his page or in many videos, I believe. Check his "How to root SGS3."

But it is installed and working. I have root access. I just can't find the icon to open it and change settings. I wonder if I re-install it, the icon will re-appear and everything will be fine. Just don't want to lose root.

Not sure if you are still running Goodness rom but on v4.0 SuperSU was moved to settings just like the updater. Wanted to post this just in case you still needed some more info.

Thank you so much for this! Quick google search lead me here. Couldn't find supersu!
Hello, i have the opposite problem. I do not want the supersu icon showing on phone....how do i make not show up without deleting the root???? And i am not talking about just hiding like samsung has option to hide/unhide icons. I don't want icon to be found. Thanks

the only way ive ever seen this accomplished is to have supersu baked into the ROM. If you got it done another way, let us all know please!
I had the same question. The SuperSU settings can be found in the Settings menu. It was kind of frustrating when it happened to me. I noticed that the SuperSU was properly working and prompting for root access when new rooted apps were installed, but I just couldn't find the app icon itself so I can enter the SuperSU settings.
It's the original calculator and it crashed immediately when I open it
Is there anyone else who meet the problem. How to solve it?

I also got this issue, anyone has a clue? at my nexus 6 btw
I got the 6.0.1 OTA just now and I'll check once it's installed. Maybe try wiping data and/or cache for it?
UPDATE: Just checked and not an issue for me. Running stock and not rooted... yet.

Just an idea but go to your Developer options then scroll to the very bottom and select Inactive apps. Touch to toggle it for calculator and try again.

Thankyou for the brain storming you guys, still it didnt had any effect.
6p, and I have the same issue.. Strange.
Did you guys flash the update using factory image files or did you flash the actual OTA file? Because I find that flashing files from the factory images to update can cause issues sometimes. The OTA files sometimes have upgrade scripts that may change some things that need to be changed on the /data partition and you wouldn't get those changes if you just flashed the new /system partition.
Last night I was having this issue (as mentioned above). Today, the calculator app opens up just fine. Even more strange...
Hey
Anyone having Problems with deinstalling the system apps too?
I am successfully rooted and tried to deinstall YouTube/maps/chrome etc., but the always come back after reboot.i am trying with titanium backup, magisk debloat and magisk App systemizer, but no matter which way I choose.. The result ist always the same...
As I understood, system apps are on read-only partition, so it's near impossible to get rid of them. I managed to remove them usind adb, but I think it's not permanent solution.

Try this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-uninstall-apps-t3776235/amp/
Open the link in a browser.
When you uninstall an app, you may need to try a couple of times, but it does go away.
Other solution is to freeze the app with TiBackup. Almost the same, the apps even stay frozen after an update.

Yes... Did this too. But sadly it is not a solution for YouTube-vanced...
Agree with all fronts. Very annoying. I'm hoping that titanium is able to fix this issue soon
