A parsing error can occur if you try to install an apk for the wrong os version e.g. If you try to install the trebuchet ics launcher to a 2.x phone you'll get that error. But if it's only the file manager you've removed that shouldn't cause that. If you used titanium check all your system apps are there, or uninstall/re-install the apk.

[Q] Parse Error

I recently began to encounter an error when attempting to install apps from my SD card while using programs such as root exporer or android home. I get this error when attempting to install any non market .apk using any file management program. I have no problem installing apps from the market. The error reads-
"Parse error
There is a problem parsing the package"
I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge as to how to solve this so I can install non market apps? So far everything I have tried has failed (wiping and reinstalling ROM and also trying different file management programs.
Yeah, I have this error too, and it's really starting to get annoying. Anyone have any ideas?
I'm running CM6 Final with it's stock kernel.
I have also been experiencing this error. i have an HD2 runnning a chuckydroid rom with FroyoStone with HTC Sense V2
I'm getting this error too on my HD2 with Hyperdroid & Enegy Leo rom
From my experience, the parse error only occurs with bad/incomplete downloads.

Have you tried running the fix_permissions script yet? Its included in most ROMs. I would try that along with clearing your cache & dalvik

has anyone tried making an update.zip to see if it will instal that way?
I had that error when it is an unlocker apk or an upgrade version of an app.

Problem parsing the package

I am attempting to install an app that i downloaded, and I keep getting an error saying there is a problem parsing the package. I am running cm6. I have used different app installers and have gotten the app from more than one reliable source and it makes no difference. Any ideas?

Did you get it from the market or from another source? That means the file is corrupted and uninstallable.
From another source but I know people who have it and works for them

I am having same issue when downloading apk from browser. Always get same error message when I try to install apk . If I download from pc and email to phone it installs fine. For some reason the download is not completing from phone. I tried with WiFi on and off and with different browsers. Trouble follows.

binding wigets?

after i installed the latest version of my rom (infamous 2.8.5) i noticed it didnt have touchwiz launcher so i installed it from an apk i found here.
the only problem im having with it is there are certain widgets that i cant add to the homescreen.
every time i try it tells me 'not installed with permission to add binding widgets' (not verbatim)
i tried to install widgets from the play store they dont work either..i mostly tried clock widgets
any suggestions?
thanks.
Infamous should have touchwiz I would try re downloading the rom and reflashing could have been a bad download

the older version 2.7.1 had tw the update didnt so i installed it from the apk
Have you tried pushing into system? If you want a simple way of convert an apk into a system file, long press it in titanium, choose "convert into system file ". Older versions of apex use to have this problem. Pushing it into system solves it.

You can copy paste into system/apps and fix permissions then reboot. Just change them to the same as all the other apk's in the folder. But if it says donation version needed, I don't think I'll work

Google Now

When i try to update google now i get an error saying package isnt signed correctly, delete previous version. I renamed the quick search box apk and tried installing Google Now thru the play store and i get an error saying incompatible update. Anyone else getting this error and how do i fix it?
Thanks
Try different gapps

That happens sometimes .. If your using inverted gapps it won't update. Do like above and flash a different gapps package.

If u have Titanium Backup just uninstall Google search n download from market

I'm pretty sure it is because your GNow.apk is signed. When this happens to me on my devices, I usually go to Settings>Apps>All>GoogleSearch>Uninstall Updates. Then go into the market and it should be there for you and ready to update correctly. If you have inverted like someone suggested above, it won't update unless you do what I said above. Also once it updates, it will no longer be inverted.

Having problem install some apps.

I have pacman 4.3. I am having problem installing some apps, not all apps, i kept trying to reinstall but always say installation failed. I also tried to install these apps on another phone, they work, but not on my phone. I tried to clean cache on market, google account etc, no luck. Anyother suggestion?
Please help.

Alright, i firgure out the problem and how to fix it.
Download the apk you want to install, put the apk file under data/app or system/app. You need es file explorer or root explore to do so. After that go to your twrp or cwm recovery and do fix permission.
Hope this helps!
