Problem with external apk - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I'm having a problem with this tab, with stock LG firmware.
If i try to install an apk from my external sdcard, it doesn't make me continue, the confirmation button doesn't work, only the cancel button.
Is anyone having the same problem?
Thanks

SOLVED!
I've used adb install <file>.apk and it worked.
BTW I thinks this remain a bug ....

I have the same problem.

Do you have unknown sources enabled?

yes

If you have some app like "filter your screen" enabled, disable it and you'll be able to install apk.

Weird issue with unknown sources installs

I've noticed on my gpe when I go to install an apk I've downloaded, I can't press install. It's not grayed out or anything, it's just not responding to the press. It's fixed by a reboot. Only mods I've made are gravity box and the optimized dalvik and bionic libraries. Any ideas why this is happening?

Turn off Lux, Screen Adjuster and other 3rd party color settings apps, I know it sounds dumb, but just do it. Then run the APK again. Install should work again.
How weird. Thanks

Don't mention it.

Does this device have led notifications?

I guess specifically speaking about the dual sim i9192 model? Or is there a way to enable it?

In the developer options, you can check Notification Flash. Its a good alternate. It will light up the flash when you get calls and emails. I dont know about texts.
Im going to get it I'm just worried it comes with knox :/

Hmm, I don't have the option in Developer settings. Do I have to install anything?

Not at all. No need to install anything. Do this:
1. Navigate to SETTINGS.
2. Goto MORE.
3. Goto About Phone.
4. You will see a build number, click it (nothing will happen). Keep clicking it 7+ times it will inform you that developers options are activated.
You will find the developer options in the settings.

You misunderstood me. I enabled Developer options some time already, but I don't have the option to enable Led notification.

It seems to only work with text messages? How to make it work with other app notifications?

The knox bootloader was removed from rom package before installation.

It dint work with the text notifications on my end. Only emails and phone calls. Have no clue if you can configure apps to use this. I think basic Samsung apps only support it mate.
bln does not work with notifications which are turning on the display. So for SMS just use an app like GoSMS where you can configure the display to stay off, like in whatsapp.

[LG D855] [Cloudy 2.5] Can't install downloaded apps

Hi everyone!
I flashed Cloudy 2.5 today and I am having a little bug. Whenever I download an apk file and proceed to install it (I have already checked the option in the developer menu) I can't click the Install button. I mean, I can click it, but the installation process doesn't begin. I can only hit the abort button and the installation is not completed.
Anyone is aware of this bug? Any solution?
Is Security --> Unknown Sources enabled in settings?

Hey man,
I just tried using the app you showed, but I can't activate the led.
Even if I activate the tile, it is still grayed out and can't be activated, even after granting root access.
The other tiles I tried didn't have that problem.
Could you give an explanation how you managed to activate it?

Updater not showing in settings

Using star2lte: lineage-17.1-20210121-nightly-star2lte.
It's only a minor problem because I can always do adb sideload but I'm sure is was there at one time. I can see the updater in the apps but I can't see any way of running it, also new updates are not announced.
Is there any way of getting the updater to run again?

Nice. I can reproduce this picture with disabling updater app.
Ok, that's interesting. How did you disable it, or more appropriately how to you re-enable it? It's possible I may have disabled it by accident.
I've just checked under Apps, and it's is enabled, weird.
Thanks.

Settings apps all threedotmenu system
Just tried that. For good measure I also stopped the app, cleared cache and data and then enabled the app. After that I restarted the phone. And it's still missing in settings!

Thanks.
Updater keeps stopping, I guess that's the reason it doesn't show. The question is: why does it keep stopping?
