Try to unmount the sd then download and install, it worked for me when angry birds didn't install.
Package file not signed correctly when I did that

Same problem.
Mines updated... but I just realized none of my downloads are showing up in the market.
I found that edited apks (themed or otherwise) cause updates to not install correctly. Have you tried uninstalling gmail altogether and then reinstalling?
try using rom manager's file permissions fix that helped me with some apps that were failing upgrades. (assuming your rooted of course)
also... try using root explorer, navigate to system/app change to r/w permissions.
delete the gmail.apk, reboot to recovery and wipe dalvik. Reboot and re download from market. Hope this helps

I cant seem to uninstall any of the stock apps that came with the phone. I can delete all the apk files by simply doing rm file.apk, but that only removes the installation file, it doesnt actually uninstall. i found various threads saying they can be uninstalled using the package manager, but i dont have any success.
# pm uninstall com.sprint.zone
pm uninstall com.sprint.zone
Failure
is the error i receive, and that is regardless if which stock app i try to uninstall. ive rooted using the standard method detailed here, not the unrevoked, and i use 'su' before attempting my uninstall, still no luck.
any ideas?
Download Titanium Backup from the market.
tried that this morning, and it does the same thing. the apk file was removed, but settings > applications > manage applications, stil has it in the list
*edit*
not sure if i just have it rooted in some weird way, but mounting the /system as rw still wont allow me to delete files. it tells me it deletes them, but they remain after a reboot. if i go thru recovery instead, it seems to resolve the problem, apps removed
I get the same "failure" error message. What does Titanium Backup have to do with this thread?
Do you have Busy Box installed with Titanium?

I am running LeeDrOiD, but I know many people have this issue.
If you are trying to update Superuser from the market, and you get invalid signature and installation fails. This is my work around, which works for me.
My rom had superuser.apk and not Superuser.apk, which linux takes as two files whilst windows references everything in capitals.
Download Superuser Update Fixer.
Run the application, which will say that signature fails. Then run the fix, which will say okay all the way through and the signature still fails.
Download Root Explorer, and mount /system/ as rw.
Go to /system/apps/ and you will find Superuser.apk and superuser.apk, rename or delete superuser.apk and then rename Superuser.apk to superuser.apk.
Restart your phone.
Go to app drawer, and launch Superuser. Your whitelist and blacklist has been erased.
Run Superuser Update Fixer and you should see signature match is okay, now click update from market and enjoy.

I don't think there is. There may be another app that does this job though. You need something that can mount system rw.
It may be possible to do this step with ADB, however I just posted how I did it.
ES file explorer has this system rw option, it says that it only works with CM and some other rom but it works for me and I'm running leedroid. Only problem is you have to unmount and mount it again every now and then.
Yeah to make it work just select the non CM7 mod option, HIAPK i think it's called? either way just select that one, apart from what the guy above me said about the remounting every now and then, should be a good substitute for root explorer
I downloaded superuser from market and the fix but wen using es explorer i only see one superuser?

I only have the Superuser.apk, but still have problems on the update. I had lost root and just decided to reroot, but got the Ninja Icon app. I tried to update - sig failed. Tried the Update Fixer and on changing to 644 fail, check sigs fail. Then I tried this.
Any other ideas on how to get it?

I'm running rooted Froyo 2.3.340 on my Droid X. I downloaded the two zip files (from this site: http://www.droid-life.com/2011/05/28/download-official-droidx-gingerbread-4-5-596-for-rooted-users/) as per instructions in method 2...
I wiped my cache using Cache Cleaner....
I opened Bootstraper for Droid 2....I hit "bootstrap recovery..."
I hit "reboot recovery...."
I went to install zip file from sdcard, navigated to zip 1 and went to install...after about 5 seconds, I received this message:
http://i.imgur.com/Y50yw.jpg
I did rename the zip files to make them easier to find...could this be the cause of the problem?
Well I know renaming them isn't the problem because I did the same thing.
It says the failed operation was checking for a specific file. Try reinstalling or uninstalling whatever app that failed. Or if it is a file for a system app, not a data app, let me know what it is (since I can't really read it clearly in the picture) and I will upload it for you to download and replace.

It might have done that since you cleared your cache.

I resolved the issue by renaming the system files (bloatware) I changed to .bak, back to .apk
After this I ran the bootloader and it installed the zipped files no problem.
Yes. The 2-part update to GB needs to be started with stock Froyo, like out was right out of the box.

I rooted my Kindle Fire and the only thing that isn't working is the Google Play Store. I used Kindle Fire Utility to root my device. When I open up Google Play, it says:
The application Google Play Store (process.com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
I've tried installing the apk various ways but it's the same result every time.
Any helped appreciated.
Did you move it to /system/app and chmod 755 before installing?
I had this problem for awhile myself and it took me hours to find a solution. What I did was after I rooted my kindle and flashed it over to cm9 reloaded I noticed gapps was not working. So to fix this I rebooted Into twrp and reflashed the gapps zip rebooted once more and my problem was solved. Hope this helps

Flashing insecure stock rom 6.3 did the trick.
It was working. I could navigate through the market and look for apps but when I went to install Spotify, it went back to that error message. After that, I try opening the market and it shows the error message.
I'll be honest; I'm a little lost on what everyone said above. All I've been doing is downloading the apk's from the Internet and throwing them on my downloads folder. I open ES File Explorer and download the apk's. Is there anything simple I can try?

Do you have the stock rom or a custom one?

I'm using stock with go launcher. I just tried a suggestion from a site to make sure I'm rooted. I installed terminal manager and typed su. I got the reply permission denied. I'm thinking that means I'm not rooted?

@b63: I did what was in that forum and now I'm rooted. Thank you.
Only issue left is when I open the Play Store, it says:
"You must add an account to the device to continue. Do you want to add one now?"
I press yes, it closes. I press no, it closes.

I believe I'm installing APK's. I've been trying to install files like these:
com.android.vending-3.5.15.apk
Vending(Mod).apk
I move the files to system/apps with Root Explorer and change the permissions but after I install it, it says "Application Not Installed."

please mark the subject of the topic (edit first post) with [Solved]
I also wanted to ask; aside from backups or maybe those 3 APK's I just moved, is it safe to delete anything, like the zip file ROM, to free up space on the internal storage?
i assume you mean the sdcard partition
yupp - it's safe - you can keep a backup on your computer if you like
Firstly I am referring to this guide:
Barclays-bank-app-running-on-rooted-phones
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2360053
After following instructions on my nexus 4 I have this problem:
I installed the Barclay's app 2 days ago and today I uninstalled it and copied your modified apk to data/app but after copying and restarting my phone the play store auto updated the app.
Now I have barclays-1 and barclays-2 apk in data/app . I've tried deleting my cache and dalvik cache and installing then reuninstalling the official app
I then tried installing the modified apk and restarting but the app won't appear in all apps, please help :/
Also when I try a to install it, my nexus 4 doesn't allow me to press install after reading permissions warnings. (I have google verify apps off and unknown sources on).
Thanks.
