apk install - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I have a funny problem on my note 2 and nexus 7 which only started today and effects both.if I download a apk to install it won't let me use the install button , nothing happens. I have made sure I have allowed the external sources. It had always worked before

Could it be because you're internal memory is full? Or you could also try wiping davlik cache.

This is really weird i just tried an old apk that i have used before and i still cant use the install button,as it happens on both devices im guessing it must have been a app update i did on both very strange

If you are using screen filter or same application, then close it. I have read such application can cause this type of issue

DPI and play store

Can someone post the steps to get Google play store to find certain apps when it doesn't recognize my device because I have the DPI set low? I remember when I was on aokp it had the steps built into the ROM but I don't remember how. Play store either doesn't show what I was searching for or it says device not compatible. Also what is the lowest you can set it before the play store can't recognize it? Thanks!

Change dpi, reboot, clear market cache, enter market, accept.
As far as dpi for market, depends on what you consider working. As you move away from stock, you start having different things happening like movies+tv disappearing or apps being not supported. You have to mess around since no one has yet posted a list of trial and errors. To get around the apps issue, download the modified market app. It will remove the app restriction, but be careful you don't try to install something you shouldn't.
Download LCD modder pro. It gives you the option to download modded market. Works great for me
I use rom toolbox pro to change dpi, reboot, download 2 files from lcd modder pro, install and reboot. You might see a bunch of things fc while its prepping to reboot but its fine

Haha! I know the feeling!!! Just a quick note!
When you replace the files. Delete the app cache for the market and Google services framework via settings then flash the modded market. I'm gonna look into Google services framework as well and see what role that gas in market compatibility. Also after replacing files, reboot to recovery and clear bother cache partition and dalvik cache. That should help.

So after I changed DPI and rebooted, my phone wouldn't come on. I did dark side cache several times and phone wouldn't come on. Thank God I had an old nandroid. Not the current jb one. So I did follow the steps exactly like you said.

Did you change the DPI before adding the files? or did you change the files then change DPI and then reboot? It being JB shouldnt really matter as the android market is pretty universal as GB market works on ICS and etc. However they may have changed it.
Can you provide an exact step by step as to what you did?

Best play store update to date! Cleaning out those old apps is so nice.
Especially the ones you never really used. Its like its all come together!
Tip: long press an app in the all list to toggle multiple mode, then tap others to remove, when ready hit the slash circle upper right

I might be wrong, but i'm pretty sure you just need to remove the file from your phone. you could use file explore and delete it, or if you're lucky then it will flash as app and you can remove it from your app list. I'm pretty sure it's the first one tho.
Hi guys,
I'm super new to Android. Bought the note 2 as the first android after 10 years of Symbian. I'm completely lost with the flashing thing on Androids.
I have few questions:
1. Does rooting/flashing delete the phone data?
2. If I flash the keyboard and then I flash the camera mod, do I lose my data everytime I add a mod?
3. What else should I do with my Note 2 to get the most out of it?
Thanks

If youre only flashing the camera and keyboard, you dont need to wipe anything, and you dont lose anything either(data). It just puts the 4.2 camera, 4.2 keyboard and 4.2 gallery. As far as other mods, just read on the thread you get them from to see if there are any warnings before flashing. But the golden rule of flashing is always do a nandroid before you flash anything.

Even though I like the sync photos that this gallery adds, but, it doesn't cache thumbnails at all, you have to wait each time you scroll a page, this is useless

Package invalid

Okay so first things first:stock rom stock everything
What I've tried before asking for help
1. Tried re-downloading said apps (multiple apps)
2.uninstall-reinstall
3.clear playstore information
4.opera normal is the only one of a couple that are giving this error that I care about. Tried using other versions of opera that have never been installed before on this device or downloaded from my playstore account, they work perfectly fine. Its just the one version that just happens to be (what's in my opinion) the best.
Havent tried a factory reset, this happened after I synced/updated with kies and added a whole bunch of music on my standard 16gb sd card....had to move it from my phone storage because it caused problems
My question is obviously how do I fix this?
As a part 2 to that question how do I figure out where my phone is default installing apps? It should be the phone storage not the sd card right?

Or you could roll back to a previous version of the PlayStore by uninstalling the current one.
That worked in a number of cases.
I had the same problem and I had to do the following:
1. Cleared the cache and data from: Google play store, Google Play services, and Google Services Framework
2. If under the Google play store there is a button to uninstall updates do that as well.
3. Reboot into recovery and clear cache and the davik cache
I then rebooted and I was fine. Have not seen the problem since
