I have seen that the new release of microsoft marketplace allows install onto the SD card (finally!) The next obvious question is how do i get this onto my leo? I have looked on the version i have installed but cant find an update option anywhere.
Thanks
when you sign in it usually asks to check for newer versions
it should update automatically when you start it up, the option to choose where it installs is in the settings, at the top it should allow you to select the default install location
for me, it wasn't auto updating, so I uninstalled marketplace from programs, then clicked the shortcut in Start Menu and it downloaded the new version.
Thanks, i had to remove and then use the shortcut to reinstall.

I need to find a way to invoke the installer app on the G1 when downloading a third party app via OTA. I know its possible, I'm just still stuck in the Windows Mobile realm and haven't switched gears to Linux for awhile. Any thoughts?
If you're talking about installing via the web browser on the device, you need to serve up a specific mime type, i believe it is application/vnd.android.package-archive
I read somewhere on another forum that there's a setting that needs to be changed on the phone to allow non-market apps to install on the device. I'll see if I can find it.
Here's how
Download Web files and applications
Before you download any files or applications using the Browser, note the following:
• Before you can download Web applications, you must explicitly “allow” downloading from the Home > Settings screen:
1
Press HOME, then press MENU and select Settings.
2
Select Applications, then on the Application settings screen, select the Unknown sources check box.
• All items downloaded form the Web are stored on your SD card, so be sure you have a card installed in your phone before you download from the Browser. (Read more in “SD card slot” on page 11.)
• The Browser will only allow you to download items that are supported by an application installed on the phone.
I can't get any apk file to install if its on the SD. Is there anyway that the apk could call on the installer to run? Its a really big pain for me right now. I need to be able to offer a free app but for reasons I can't get into I need it to be installed from the device and not OTA.
hi guys i wonder if anyone has or know a way to install the smart select edge panel from S8 to the S7 edge?
I've read somewhere on xda that you'll also need to download the new AOD along with smart select apk, but personally I didn't have that issue nor do I understand why one would need the other to work...
But I downloaded the apk from apkmirrior, installed, then swiped open the edge panel tab, click the tiny settings gear once panel is open so you can enable/disable /download other edge tabs, and enabled smart select for one of your edge tabs. Viola
Sorry i tried to upload screenshots but xda network error...

I'm actually starting to run into the same issue with package conflict on certain apps trying to install from unknown sources.. I know that the options others have tried don't work.. As far as smart select goes, have you tried downloading the apk from XDA? Some are having success that way..
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7...galaxy-s7-edge-sm-g935f-t3584881/post71741190
Also there are many people having success with installing apks that run into package conflict, and it has to do with putting a shortcut of the apk on homescreen, turning off all security sign in features for lock screen so you can access your apk shortcut as fast as possible.. Then reboot your phone and as soon as you can, try to install the shortcut.. Also make sure to enable installation from unknown sources before reboot.
I haven't been able to get that to work for my conflicts, but lots of people have..
EDIT: I recently did an update from Verizon for the April security patch and whatever the bloatware they added and that's when I started running into conflicting packages

Without doing a factory reset, I honestly have no clue. There are so many mixed reports that say worked for their package conflicts, but the only way that continually is working is doing a backup and factory reset, then download and install the previous package conflicticted apks before going back through and backing up old apps/data.
I know it's a pain to do all that, and that's why I haven't gone through with doing a factory reset yet but I'm getting to that point if someone doesn't find out a solution soon..
I just tried to get smart select working .
So I installed the smart select apk, it installed successfully without any errors and it did show up as one of the default panel just like it should.
But when trying to use any of the smart select features on the panel my phone freezes for about 20 seconds.
The only option in smart select that works for me is "pin to top".
I am using a S7 edge rom, not a ported s8 rom.
Any suggestions?

Have you downloaded the latest optical Reader app from Samsung? I just came across this article that states you need the optical reader to make it work properly?
https://www.sammobile.com/2017/05/0...s-and-gifs-using-the-smart-select-edge-panel/
I tried all methods. None of them works
I'm our of options myself, I'm also in a position where I'm getting package conflicts but thankfully have been able to get some before I did my last update from Verizon, which is when I started getting package conflicts.. I wish you luck though and hopefully we can come up with something
Just wanted to quickly say that the apk from this link (found above):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7...e-sm-g935f-t3584881/post71741190#post71741190
works.
Using a non-rooted tmo S7E
Rectangle and Circle screenshot can be fixed by installing S8's AOD
I get conflicts with that apk too. But i appreciate your sharing.
Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk
I received the same conflict. But I tried the following: create a new folder in root system/app , rename the new folder 'SmartClipEdgeService'. Then download the apk from http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/smart-select-2/smart-select-2-1-0-42-release/smart-select-1-0-42-android-apk-download/ , rename it 'SmartClipEdgeService.apk' and put it in the folder. Restart the device and you should be able to select it in the edge panel.
Unfortunately, I can't use the rectangle or oval either, the app just crashes when I try. If anyone knows how to fix this, it would be much appreciated!
I'm on G935F btw.

Update: Could get the rectangle and oval to work by downloading S8's AOD apk and replacing it in the root system/priv-app/AODService_v20 folder (also renaming the apk as 'AODService_v20.apk') BUT I lose AOD and I keep getting an error message saying AOD keeps stopping when I restart the phone as well as when I try to use the smart select features. The smart select hangs for abit but will work eventually.
Working on my end without freezing.

I have figured out a way to get the Smart Select Edge fully functional on the S7 Edge after some trial and error. You will need root. (I don't know if all the steps are necessary but that's just what I did.)
1. Create a new folder in root system/app , rename the new folder 'SmartClipEdgeService'. Then download the apk here , rename it 'SmartClipEdgeService.apk' and put it in the folder.
2. Download S8's AOD apk here and replace it in the root system/priv-app/AODService_v20 folder (also renaming the apk 'AODService_v20.apk'). Backup the original apk just in case,
3. Set the AOD apk permission to 0755 (rwx-rx-rx), folder permission should be the same.
4. Clear AOD cache and data (if you can't find it in applications, use titanium backup to 'open system details' and clear data, also use it to 'clear cache'.
5. Restart and it should work! You will have both AOD and the smart select edge fully working, just go to settings on the edge panel and select 'smart select' as one of your panels.
When the new AOD is installed it will have a 'learn how to use aod' notification on the AOD screen that you might not be able to get rid off. Just tap next very close to the bottom of you screen if it doesn't register.

Hi guys.
I have just upgraded windows 10 to the creators edition.
During the upgrade, windows automatically and without my consent uninstalled an old version of Firebird that I use.
I tried to reinstall the program, but I get the message that I cannot install it anymore in this version of the windows.
I have checked my settings in: settings -> Applications -> Allow apps from everywhere to be installed.
Even with the option to allow apps from anywhere selected, I am still being blocked.
Please, how can I bypass this block and reinstall the program that I need?
Thank you.
I updated my S8 to Oreo and I love it, however apps like Advance Download Manager or Amazon when trying to install apps it request that I allow install from unknown sources, it prompts the toggle but it's grey and will not let me switch it on.
Any way to force allow this? There is no longer an option to allow unknown installs in settings.
I have the same problem only a few apps show as accessible. But the ones I want to change are greyed out. Any resolution?
Go to Settings-Apps- click on the 3 dots menu-> special access-> Install unknown apps. Guess this should work
There are bits and pieces of this all over XDA (and the web) so I thought I'd just put it here to make it easier.
I purchased a Chinese Huawei Media Pad M3 8' WiFi tablet in March 2018 with the following details.
Model: CPN-W09
Build: CPN-W09C233B066 , CPN-W09C233B067 (updated 8 Apr 2017 with no negative effects)
EMUI 5.1
Android 7.0
Kernel: 3.18.31-gee0501b
I wanted to get google services on this device. This is what finally worked for me.
Startup the tablet. Select USA English, skip Huawei registration and Wifi. Skip cloud services, enable pin, enable fingerprint ID. Get to home screen.
Connect to computer, enable file transfer and drop GSM the gsminstaller apk into your download folder. Install the gsminstaller and after the installer is installed, open it and press the 'one touch installation button'. After that, I installed Google Play service 12.5.20 and Google Play store 9.3.14 both of which I downloaded from apkmirror.com.
I was able to log into my google account and everything seems to be working fine. I even reset the tablet to factory specs to make sure I had the right steps and it looks like the GSM core stayed installed.
Note I got the link to the gsmcore (gsminstaller.apk) from this thread. so thanks.
Also, as I researched this, I stumbled across a couple of other tidbits that I thought I'd put here.
There are some hidden menus you can reach by putting the calculator in landscape mode (so you can see the '(' ')' characters.) and keying in the following combinations.
To get the Product ID enter: ()()1357946()()=
To get the Project Manager (install firmware from SD card, reset etc) aka Manufacture Mode enter: ()()2846579()() =
Hope this helps someone else.

Use the Files app to find the APK where you put it on the tablet, double click it and install the APK (app). After it is installed , you'll see the icon in your apps. Click that and then you will see the one-touch install button.
Report back here if it works so other people can find the info for your tablet.

I have the same problem, it just doesn't allow you to install the APK (App may damage your device, Installation forbidden.) and there is no option to turn off checking apks

To skip the Hicare check, you just need to disconnect from the internet before you double click on the APK. Then you should be able to install the GSMinstaller.

When I switched off and on the external sources/third party app radio buttons, there was an option to "Enable external sources app to scan..." that was enabled by default. I disabled that tick box and it never checked any APK's again.
Hope this works for you.
I follow the steps, and got the play store installed,but when I went to install a few games, it said it couldn't install them. It also said the google play services wouldn't work unless it was updated, but when I went to update it, it didn't say there was an update. A few things installed,like Nova launcher. The games I tried to install, I was able to install them last time without a problem (don't remember what I did then to get Google play to work). Today I unlocked the bootloader and rooted it,and it obviously erased everything. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I have the WiFi only model.
It worked for my MEDIAPAD M3, I had to factory reset it, and skip all the set up options. do not add any password or wifi to it. just skip it all, then run the GMS installer., and also install the google play store , framework and play services.
then, you can add your wifi password.
