Hi,
Hopefully I am not missing something too obvious but I am running the stock ROM, rooted, 4.3. I have enabled 'Unknown Sources' in the security settings. I have tried updating the Amazon App Store, updating an Xposed module and installing an app on my SD card. Each time I get to the screen showing the permissions and to Cancel or Install. I can click Cancel but when clicking Install nothing happens - it doesn't select. It just stays on the same screen. It isn't grayed out or anything just won't let me select it.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Open GOOGLE Settings > Verify Apps and make sure its unchecked.
Also try Settings > General > Security and see if the Verify Apps is checked. If it is then uncheck it.
Thanks for your help. Both of these are already unchecked. I unchecked them in my troubleshooting. Any other ideas?
Show me a screen shot of what its doing
Here is an image. If I touch the Cancel button it turns orange and will activate if clicked and cancel it. If I touch Install it does not turn orange and does nothing:

"lightbox_next": "Next",

Do you have the app you want to install on your SD card? After updating to 4.3, I can no longer sideload apps from the SD card. I have to copy it over to the onboard memory and then install. Might want to give that a shot.
Thanks Blazinazn. I tried moving it to internal storage but it still didn't work.
Double0EK, I don't get the first popup box it goes directly to the second image. I can't press that Install button as I mentioned earlier. You gave me an idea and I unchecked 'Package Installer' as the default but I still don't get the pop up. I also tried installing apk's using ES File Explorer and I get a toast message that 'Install Failed'.
Thanks again.
Try clearing data and cache for the 'Package Installer' app.
BAM! Cleared the cache and I can now install these apps not on Google Play. Thank you so much for your assistance!
Damn...I was going to suggest that earlier. . Don't know why I took so long. Glad it worked out.

Hello everyone.
I have a really wierd problem with defy's buttons (menu, home, back, search). They stoped working at all.
So for a couple months I have been having strange problems with the buttons. It looked like home button was pushed and app drawer was opening/closing really fast. Reset has helped, but temporary.
And about a week ago the buttons stoped working at all. I tried to flash another ROM (official 2.2), but it didn't help.
And now I don't know what to do. I goggled it, but there is no information about such problem.
If somebody can give an advice, please let me know.
Thanks.
Nobody ? That's sad. XDA was my last hope) Well, I guess I will sell it for parts.
try doing an sbf. if that doesn't work, then there is hardware issue.
edit: dont know if you already did..since you said you flashed an official 2.2 rom..
Don't know if this will work but it won't hurt to try

Download the files and android commander search it up. It's easier than manually using adb commands.
Connect your phone to pc and make sure usb debugging is on
In android commander navigate to system/usr/layout
Then click on push on the toolbar in android commander
Select the files you downloaded then right click on each file that you just added then click on properties
make sure each one looks like this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Maybe this will fix your buttons?
from http://android.site666.info/indextricks.htm :
home key, search button, security lock, power button options: repair them
Some phones do strange things at random: your home and search buttons stop working, your security lock won't load (leaving your data wide open), and if you hit the power button then reboot is your only option, because silent mode and flight mode are missing from the list.
There's nothing wrong with the buttons on your phone, but there's something wrong with the software that controls them.
• Fix: backup your apps and data, reset your phone to factory settings, restore your backups.
Make sure you have a full backup or two and check that the backups work before resetting your phone.

If it helps you hit his thanks button.
Or you have the settings under developer checked for showing all processes.
Okay after looking at your screenshots its not what I thought at all ha this is a good one glad you have it under warranty still but I think a new rom would fix it.

No such option selected !!
Btw, how do I go to /efs/imei/keystr ??
The instructions in the other thread says to do following:
"You have to go into /efs/imei/keystr
and delete keystr and make a new file called keystr and use text editor in root explorer to type ON in it and reboot."
Edit: My phone is not rooted at all.. And i wasn't messing around with it either when the screen showed up!
I installed a file explorer.. I see folder efs but when I go into that, no imei or any other folder shows up.. it's blank!
Please help!

You need a root file explorer(I use es file explorer). Go into settings and enable r/w options. Then you should be able to find the efs directory.
Edit: so I saw your post in the other thread that says you aren't rooted. The only other way that I know to get rid of the text is to flash a different ROM.
I contacted Samsung and the guy on phone did not understand what I was saying! LOL.. Anyways, they asked me to send it back.. so, lets see what they do.. btw.. anyone know how fast is the samsung warranty centre?
I wish they did like Google, replace the phone.. No repairs!
So i'm runnbing the march 28th cm11 nightly, and a few days ago, I noticed two of my most used applications (also, the only applications I've bought on google play) strangely disappeared from my home screen; I went to the app drawer to put them back, and they were not there either. So I open google play to reinstall them--only it says they ARE installed. Trying to open them from google play results in an instant FC. So from google play, I uninstalled and reinstalled--same results. Going into settings --> Apps, both applications show up, but in place of their regular icons are generic android icons suggesting the apps are on my SD card...

however, I've never tried to install or move apps to my SD card, I certainly haven't done ANYthing to those two apps...what's going on here?! Any insight? I've already factory reset and reinstalled and the problem persists...I'd REALLY like to avoid having to do a wipe that includes /data/media....

I had the exact same problem and had to go back to the 0326 build. I asked the very same question on the CM thread and somebody suggested that a clean flash should take care of the problem (though, to be honest, I've yet to try).

--EDIT--
Just tried flashing the 0331 update clean and downloaded one of my paid apps. I'm still having the same problem. Going back to 0326.
I have rooted my phone and google pay worked just fine. One day, It randomly started crashing when I tried to initiate a card.
Using "Magisk Hide" to sort that out.

Wipe data of Google play services
Does it open at all or does it show some kind of error message in the dialog when you try to open?

It will open but when it tries to contact the bank after I confirm the card details when trying to set up Google pay, I'll get a white screen
On my phone Google Pay (plus a bunch of other banking apps) works perfectly with Magisk Hide. Your problem is probably unrelated to root. Try this: go offline and wipe the data of Google Pay, Google Play Services, Google Services Framework, Google Play Store. Then reboot, go online and see if things improve.
When Magisk hide doesn't work for me, I've found that using the function in the Magisk application to "install Magisk under random name" then deleting the regular Magisk app fixed all issues for me. May be worth a try.

I hid all Google apps services, anything with Google in app sub name. Make sure magisk app is hidden. Reboot. Then wipe storage and cache on everything with Google in it's subname. Reboot. Profit
This morning I accidentally went into the boot menu of my OnePlus phone.

If you have a spair phone you can use the google lens to translate the text on screen or simply long press the power button to stitch off the device and book into os again.

OK thank you, I translated it with google lens.
The upper button says reboot and the lower button says finish.
What should I press ?
Reboot
You could look for Back option, or Reboot to recovery. Maybe boots to global recovery and you can choose english.
Here's what yandex translate says.
It seems your phone data has already been cleared and you'll need you google account when it reboots to finish setup. Apps from play store will be recovered but your data is lost. Sorry.

If this ever happens again when it hits recovery just hold both vol button and power it will reboot to fastboot
I think you could have just kept pressing back a few times. I have accidentally chosen chinese and just hit back to get the choice menu again
