[Q] "Apllication not installed" Error - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I guess that would be the Error message translated to English.
Everytime I try to upgrade a programm via the packet manager, I get this Error. It does not occur if I install a new program or if I install/upgrade anything via the market.
With the help of google I found out that I should delete the "smdl2tmp1.asec" on the sdcard, but this file simply does not exist, I even looked for it with the Terminal emu as su.
Also I changed the install options from external to automatic, doesn't help either.
My ROM is CM7.0.3
Any ideas how to fix this?
Is it possible to get an error message that is a little more helpful?
Thanks in advance
(I can actually just uninstall the application and then install the new version, but that way I lose all my settings, which is rather annoying)

How to Cleanly Uninstall IIWPO

Hi There,
I'm having problem after doing an un-Install of the IIWPO program.
I've checked and ensured that ALL files and registry settings are removed.
But it keeps giving a pop-up whenever the device is turned on.
The error says:
"Notification Error - Cannot Execute \Windows\IIWPO_main.exe"
Worst of all, I thought this error will go away after a ROM flash.
But it didn't even after I re-flashed the ROM for an upgrade.
Please kindly advice on any work around.
Cheers
Fishy

Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot

I've got a problem. Trying to update my new rom's Cyberon Voice Speed Dial v1.1 to Version 1.2 and get the following error: "Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions". I already did research on the net about changing registry and using unlocker, scpb.cab, but non of that seems to work!!!
Anybody else had this problem?
I too have just had this problem trying to install the bluetooth keyboard drivers on my Qtek 8500 Smartphone.
Anyone know what to do.
i've got same message
after hardreset and reinstalling all my software i've got the same problem.
after going to settings->system->Remove Programs i found nothing in the list of available software for uninstall . i supose the database was corrupted .
I got this error when I was trying to install a program that was already running in the background.
I had to close it with taskmanager first.

permissions problem installing tom Comm manager8

Hi friends.. I downloaded the Tom Commmanger8 from the forums but have problems installing the cab file. When I install the cab file, it fails saying -
"Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions. "
I am running the installation in normal working mode.. when the phone is started up.
Is there a separate admin mode in which I can install the cab file ??
Please help. My comm manager right now shows just one button.
Thanks.
maybe your existing comm manager is running when you try to install the new one? you can see running programs in settings/system/memory/running programs.
or you can soft reset your device and then try to install before you do anything else.
Killing Comm manager worked. It installed fine without any problems or complaints.. I now have the comm manager working fine.
But I wonder how the error it showed me and the actual problem are related..
when a program is running it "locks" some files. when you try to install a new version you try to overwrite those locked files. and you dont have the permission for this (that's why they are locked). you end the running program, and the lock is gone and you can delete/overwrite/change those files.
of course it would be possible to make a better error message like "this file is used by a running process (process_name). please end this process before trying again". but well, it's never done.
the message you got was actually very true and it allowed me to find the reason with my first guess
my solution
I had the same problem, when I tred to install it to device. But when I installe dot StorageCard, it was succesfull withou any problem. And it works,so...
The important point is here to install "8 Comm man" directly after sw-reset!!!
Then the installation works!! I tested it several times.

Cannot open help

'The file cannot be found'
symptoms - help opens, but when clicking on a help link the file comes up with above error. Any path information that can be suggested to fix this?
O/S upgraded BA wm6
thanks,
Alistair.
As I can understand your flashed ROM version is non original so the Developer has just deleted the Help,Info data from the ROM,probably to achieve some more free space and let install other more useful applications.
Have a good day

[Q] Package File Signature Error help

Hello my name is Sean and I have recently rooted my phone (captivate glide) and installed a custom ROM. Whenever I try to update apps like the AT&T Code Scanner, Qik Video Lite, Andoid Keyboard, or even Google Play itself I receive this error message:
"Package file was not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again."
Also when I run certain apps like Spot Hero or Clash of Clans I get the following message:
"Google Play services, which some of your applications rely on, is not supported by your device. Please contact the manufacturer for assistance."
I have searched the forums and found a few instances with similar problems, but the issue was either never resolved or didn't match the problem I was experiencing. I've Googled the problem and a few folks suggested using Titanium Back Up to uninstall the app in question and then re-install, but I have read some users say that they are then unable to re-install the app. I don't want to lose any functionality, so I haven't tried that.
Here is a step-by-step of what I did to my phone:
1) Shutdown my phone and rebooted into download mode with Odin 3.04 running
2) Flash CLOCKWORK MOD RECOVERY 6.0.1.2 (found here)
3) Reboot in download mode
4) Flash stock ICS ROM (found here)
5) Flash Superuser 3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip (following the instructions found here)
5) Flash GApps.zip for 4.0.4 (found here)
6) Reboot and the phone says it's upgrading Android and optimizing applications
7) Once the phone is booted up and the SD card is done scanning I run into the problem described above
Has anyone encountered this problem before? If so, please share your insights.
Thanks for reading and if you have any suggestions I would welcome the help.
hello
i remember i had same problem when i was using ics, i think you shoulr flash anotherics gapps from diferent source. I do not remember where i downloaded mine
I tried some different gapps and I got some apps like Hangouts to update, but now I receive this message when I try to install Google Play Services:
"Incompatible with other application(s) using the same shared user ID."
I did some further looking into this and found that if I wiped my /system data and reflashed my gapps.zipp that seems to work. I installed Youtube first (since it requires Google Play Services) and that took care of everything.
Unfortunately I have lost any progress I may have made in my game apps and have to download/update everything from scratch and reset my ring tones and such, but at least I have a fully functional, rooted phone.
Actually I take that back. Google Play Services seems to be cooperating, but now I'm getting the package file signature problem again.
I resolved the issue by starting over and following Rawr0w0's guide half way down this thread.
