Can't install third party apps [F180L20R_00] - LG Optimus G (International)

Welp, this is unexpected issue. I have set permission to install apps outside of Play Store but phone still won't install them. Installation dialog shows up, it warns me about possible security problems, I acknowledge them and hit "Install" but button is ignoring me. I tried this with several apps like F-droid and games from humble bundle with no luck. Anyone had this issue?

Application Installation error -- "Unknown reason -110"

Hi All,
First time poster so please be gentle -- I did search for this issue on google and within the forums first.
This is the first smartphone I've ever purchased.
My Inc2 is non rooted and non modded.
It has been working w/o issue since I bought it about 6 weeks ago until this weekend when it would no longer install updates or new apps from either the Google Android or Amazon Android markets.
Note that in both markets the app or update downloads w/o issue -- the problem happens when it attempts into install what was downloaded.
The status bar at the top reads "Installation of app X unsuccessful"
Downloads/Updates from the Google Android market result in an error message within the notification bar. Clicking on it opens a dialog box with Installation error "Unknown reason -110"
When downloading/updating from the Amazon Android market the error is less specific, I click Install, the standard screen opens confirming I want to install the app explaining what it will need access to. I click the Install button at the bottom of the page which results in "Application not installed".
Note that this happens with all app downloads or updates.
The steps I have taken so far:
1) restarting the phone
2) clearing cache/data from Applications/Android Market application (and restarting again)
3) clicking on button to remove all updates to Android Market application (and restarting again) --
Interestingly the version listed under the Market app is 2.3.4 even though it has reverted to an earlier version -- it looks very different.
On a side note: since this did not fix the problem, how do I get the newest Market version again?
4) unmounted SD card (and restarting again) -- since this did not fix the issue, I remounted the SD card
5) Used file manager to navigate to directory Download and look for files named: XX.apk, where XX is 1 to 20. -- but did not find any such files.
6) Per HTC support:
First, open the phone dialer and enter in *#*#checkin#*#* [*#*#2432546#*#*]. The number will disappear and your should see a notification of either Checkin Succeeded or Checkin Failed. If it succeeded, then new updates should be detected for your device and the application.
I received "checkin succeeded" notification
[Can someone explain to me what entering the combination above does --
what is the phone checking in with?]
Next, try moving any applications you have on the SD card to your phone's internal memory. This can be done by going to: Home> Menu> Settings> Applications> Manage Applications> On SD. Tap each program and then tap Move to Phone. Once this is done, check for updates again.
I received "Failed to move application" notification for each application on my
SD card that I attempted to move to Internal Memory
Finally, I recommend clearing the data from the Google Services Framework applications. In the Manage Applications Screen, go to: All> Google Services Framework and then tap Clear data. Check for updates once again.
Followed the direction above but have not received any updates by navigating
to Settings/Software update and clicking Check new.
For whatever it is worth clicking Status shows that my last update has name
HTC_ADR6350_LargeUpdate_3.02.605.1 with Status of Update Successful,
code of 200, date of 09/19/11 and time of 07:55PM.
7) A (perhaps) related development is that as of tonight, my Inc2 is no longer listed as one of my devices in the Google Android Market when I navigate the web page on my computer. Anyone know how to get this resolved?
Thanks in advance for anyone willing to help.

Try clearing data in apps settings and reboot. How many apps are installed? When was the last time you deleted all your messaging threads and call logs?

Joshua,
Can you advise on the click path to accomplish the "clearing data in apps settings" process.
When I click Settings/Applications/Manage Applications, I just see my apps listed.
I do not use sms or text messages but I have never deleted all my messaging threads and call logs (again, I've had the phone about 6 weeks) -- I will do a quick search on the forum to learn how to take those steps.
Thanks for your help.

You're in the right place, just click on market and choose clear data. Wiping messaging and call logs, just go into the app and hit menu.

When I navigate to the Market App the "Clear data" button is grayed out.
Accessing the Phone app allows me to Clear data and I did -- can you help me with "hit menu" reference you made?
Also, I'm not sure what is normal but when I go into the Market Updater app, all the buttons are grayed out.
Thanks again.

Not the market updater app, the market app. They are different apps. It should be under the ALL APPS tab in applications settings.
"Hit menu" refers to the physical (or capacitive) menu button on the phone itself.
So you used the phone app to clear the call logs? Go to call logs and press the menu button on the phone.
Understood on the market updater app being separate from the market app -- just wanted to post an observation about the market updater as I wondered if maybe that wasn't the way it was supposed to look (all buttons grayed out).
I went to Settings/Applications/Manage Applications, selected the All tab, scrolled to the Phone app and clicked the Clear data button.
Upon doing so I received a Change Mode message that a SIM card was detected and the device was switching to global mode.
Do I want to stay in global mode if I only need CDMA?
Then navigated to Settings/Call -- but I was unable to find mention of call logs and pressing the physical menu button did not bring up anything.
Sorry if I'm being dense.
Not sure if this is related to any of the steps you have recommended but my Incredible 2 is now listed again in the Google Android market when I browse to it via my computer. I'll take any good news.
Thanks

Nope, go into your call log and press menu. Open the phone app as if you're going to make a call, go to your call history, hit menu and delete all.
When you were in the all tab, that's where you clear data for market.

Thanks for the additional explanation -- totally makes sense now -- Call history is now empty.
Have done the same for messages.
Now rebooting the phone...
Tested downloading an app and unfortunately got the same -110 error.
Do you have any ideas regarding these questions I posted above?
Interestingly the version listed under the Market app is 2.3.4 even though it has reverted to an earlier version -- it looks very different.
On a side note: since this did not fix the problem, how do I get the newest Market version again?
... enter in *#*#checkin#*#* [*#*#2432546#*#*]. The number will disappear and your should see a notification of either Checkin Succeeded or Checkin Failed. If it succeeded, then new updates should be detected for your device and the application.
I received "checkin succeeded" notification
Can someone explain to me what entering the combination above does --
what is the phone checking in with?
If I will only be using my phone in the United States -- is it better to leave from phone in World or CDMA mode?
Thanks again.
cdma mode only

Android customer support indicated that they had received multiple reports of this issue but did not have a fix yet.
Worked with HTC support and ended up having to do a factory reset which fixed the problem.
Thanks to everyone for your help.

Solved! Battery Drain On Note 2 after 4.3 update.

Alright folks, I think I have finally managed to solve the battery drain problem after the 4.3 update, thank God!
The bad news is that it cannot be done without your phone being rooted. So root the phone in the following manner: 1) Install "Kingo Android Root" to you PC. It will not root your phone without following the other steps.
2) Install "System App Remover" (the one by Jumobile) from play store. The app will be installed as a different name, as "Uninstall". I tried "All-in-One Toolbox" too but it coudn't find all the files listed below (namely KLMS Agent). So I had to install this one and try again.
2.1) Install "Root Checker Basic" from play store.
3) Go to Menu>Settings>More>App Manager>All and force stop the apps:
com.sec.enterprise.knox.attestation
com.sec.knox.eventsmanager
Security policy updates
KNOX
KNOX -- (Yes we have two of them! One is to install Knox interface other one is the one that is already running without installing the other one.)
Knox Notification Manager
KNOX Store
KLMS Agent
In total we have 8 files (or actually apps) to close. You may have 7 of them if you don't have Security Principle Update.
Some of these will not gonna allow you to force stop, never mind, just close the ones that you can.
4) (Now you have to be quick because somehow these apps restart themselves.) Connect your phone to your PC and run Kingo and click root then follow the instructions on your pc screen. Your note 2 will restart and will be rooted.
5) Disconnect your phone.
6) Run "Root Checker Basic" and click "verify root access" and see if you are rooted now. (You should be rooted.)
7) Install "SuperSU" from play store.
8) Run "uninstall" (which we obtain by installing "System App Remover" (the one by Jumobile)). SuperSU will ask for root permission for uninstall, approve it. Uninstall will provide you a list, choose all the apps listed above and uninstall them. KLMS Agent will not be in the list and you should use the search option of the app. If for any reason you don't see any other app in the list search and uninstall! YOU SHOULD DELETE ALL 8 FILES!
9) Restart your phone.
After you remove all the Knox bloatware and anything else you don't like, install Lucky Patcher.
This is usually used to remove licenses from pirated apps, But it also does something else which we will need to use:
It removes Google ads! And these are that keep our phones awake.
In the faulty 4.3 Samsung update apps with Google Ads always try to connect and sync thus keeping the phone awake.
In Lucky Patcher go into each app individually and choose "Remove Google ads".
Then choose "Patch to remove Google ads" and press "Apply". Rarely will you have 100% success but it doesn't matter.
Then repeat the process and this time press "Disable Ads Activities" and press each activity that is used for advertising (They are usually in orange colour).
One more useful step is to use Greenify to hibernate almost all processes except the ones that need to sync eg Dropbox.
My phone used to have 65-85 % wake time after the update. Now it's only 3% wakelock instead of the 65-85% that was before and the battery only went down to 98% from 100% in 2.5 hours! Battery life is even better than on 4.1.2.
If for some reason after a few days (or even hours) the problem returns, then it could well be an app that causes it, or a combination of apps. In my case it was Automatic Call Recorder by App.liqato (Appstar Solutions). an app that was working fine on 4.1.2 but not on 4.3. It was the last app to be installed, that's why I knew. I uninstalled it and batery life is back to normal after it had gone mad for a couple of hours. Notice that no wakelock app showed it as the culprit. I only knew because after I had done a factory reset I installed all my apps one by one and not from a backup and I forgot this one. I remembered a few days later and when I installed it the drain started.

[Q] Can't seem to install .apk files?

I've been trying to install Game killer (the equivalent of CheatEngine on PC) except I ran into a very unusual problem. I've been using "Application installer". I would provide a link to the app, but I seems that the site won't let me.
The problem is that when I try to install the Game killer .apk through this installer app, I get to the usual permissions interface where I see what permissions the apk needs and all that. What's strange is that I cannot seem to click the Install button. I can interact with every other part of the screen, but I simply cannot hit the install button. Even pressing my finger onto the install button and then sliding towards the "Back" button will cause the back button to illuminate like it usually does, but I still cannot select the install button.
I'm running stock ROM, stock Kernels, stock everything. Device is rooted. I can install apps from google play just fine, but of course, Gamekiller is not on the play store.
I ran into a similar problem when I installed a screen rotation app. With the rotation app intstalled I could not install any other apps that were not from the app store. Once I removed the rotation app everything was fine. This a security feature in android to prevent apps from modifying your screen without you knowing it. Check if you have installed any app that could have modified your screen.
I had the same issue on mine, the app total screen control was the culprit. I couldn't get apps to install when TSC was active.
Are you using any type of screen filters? If you are, disable them and it should be able to work now.

microg / playstore / signature spoofing

so, i now nothing about linux, i know about android only as much as every other phone user. i used android emulators, one day i though hey, what if you just use android as an os and i found this new dimension, almost.
now, i installed the last bliss os, i had many crashing problems (installing apps from apkpure caused crash, installing from built-in file manager also caused crash) and i figured pretty much all of those problems stem from notification problems. so i go and disabled all notifications, app by app, including system ui notifications. now i can install anything from apkpure, i don't receive any crashing.
another problem was with vertical apps. they didn't show properly, solved that problem with the built in orientation tool.
now, i want to know wth is this microg thing is. i can install any apk from apkpure so i don't need store for that. i am also okay with playing games in guest mode. all i want being able to ignore google login part. (edit: i just installed another game in which you login with plarium registration method which also stopped working when loading bar was showing "connecting to store systems". makes sense, i guess.)
microg thing has a self check and i guess when everything checked it will do exactly that? it will fool apps as if i have google play while i don't? so i need a tutorial about that. what's unchecked for me?
system has signature spoofing support CHECKED
system grants signature spoofing support CHECKED
system spoof signature UNCHECKED
play services gmscore installed CHECKED
play services gmscore has correct signature UNCHECKED
playstore phonesky installed CHECKED
playstore phonesky has correct signature UNCHECKED
(everything else between checked)
last entry called "network based location enabled" UNCHECKED. (it says you either disabled this in system setting which i didn't or the system is not supported)
thanks in advance.
I have a similar problem - I managed to get some of the unchecked checked by clicking on the option itself and sometimes a dialog would come up asking to grant some sort of permission. But I am still stuck with 'System spoofs signature' and 'Play Services (GmsCore) has correct signature' unchecked.
Does this mean the signature spoofing is not happening? If so I'm not sure what else I need to do to get it set up on Bliss OS 11.14.

Question Security message when running an app

Hello
I installed the Marriott app this morning, and when I go to run it, i get that security message along the bottom third of the screen, and the app shuts down.
What is causing that?
It is detecting root/magisk.
Add Marriott to Zygisk hide list, then clear Marriott storage&cache, force close and reopen.
I downloaded the app and installed it to test. If you don't clear the app cache (and only force close and reopen) it will not work. You must clear that before opening again
Thank you App
I followed your instructions, but I still get that message.
Should I have rebooted after adding to the list??

No. That's not necessary. The following 3 steps is all you need
I cleared storage, force closed, and run it.
I get that initial welcome screen of the app, and before I can press on the SIGN IN button, it closes forcefully.
This happens no matter how many times I repeat the steps.

What magisk version and modules are you using?
Also, what Android/oos version are you using?
Do you have device certification in play store? Or what's your YASNAC result?

After some more poking around, that app detects everything. I attempted to monitor the https traffic to see what contacts are made at app-boot. It detects that I'm monitoring traffic. I attempted to use frida to bypass the ssl pinning so I can monitor traffic. It detects that I'm using frida. All of those cause a close condition.
This could mean, if it detects anything abnormal, you're gonna get force closed. The whole toast not showing up is annoying. You might be able to adjust your font/text size for the system in Accessibility, to see the full text.
If you have busybox or anything else you can think of that might be detected, try disabling them or any questionable modules like lsposed, restart, then see if you can open the app.
I looked inside the app and don't see some of the stuff as strings, and existing strings are already using some reflected values in another index. It appears to use some kind of library that is checking for root, certification, ssl certificate pins, frida, probably xposed and so on. Then retrieving the response from an api.
My thought was to repackage the apk without root checks for you but if they're doing that much for security, there's almost no chance I will be able to launch the app with self signing for the apk.
Having the full toast response would be helpful here
Wow App.. How detailed, you are.
Here are my modules plus Universal Safetynet fix. I'm running a13 f.17 build.
I'm not sure how to proceed. I installed it on my wife's phone and used it..
Here's a reddit thread with someone else fighting with the Marriott Bonvoy app.
old.reddit.com/r/Magisk/comments/yf8gyu/help_hotel_app_detecting_root/
Its quite ridiculous that a Hotel app is so restrictive and difficult.
I just (briefly) tried running the app inside Island, but still got the toast nags / close.
Interestingly I get one of two nags "you're on an unsecure network" or "we've detected magisk, etc)
I wish that I had twrp to blame, but I don't have it installed.
Hey there,
I did some looking at older versions of the app (apkpure has them). On my phone (Android 9, Magisk 23) the last version that will run (using MagiskHide with all the 3 boxes ticked for the marriott app), is 10.4.0.
Marriott Bonvoy™ 10.4.0 (Android 9.0+) APK Download by Marriott International - APKMirror
Marriott Bonvoy™ 10.4.0 (Android 9.0+) APK Download by Marriott International - APKMirror Free and safe Android APK downloads
www.apkmirror.com
Version 10.5.0 starts giving me nags.
(Sometimes it is just easier to use an older version of an app, than fighting to get the very latest to work!)
Mine is 10.13.1. not sure what got updated. I usually don't want to get stuck with old version, so I'll just use the website to make reservation and redemption. Yikes
I heard Magisk Delta by HuskyG could hide it from detection. Has anyone been brave enough to try? Well, I tried and it didn't work. I tried the whitelist mode by leaving Marriott out of the SuList and many other banking apps too. But it still detects root. Marriott app version 10.13.1. Older version say 10.12.0 and below should survive.
