Hello, so as the title says i cant update applications. Each time there is an update, i must first uninstall the old one, then install new one, otherwise it wont work and say "application not installed". I know its a problem i can live with, but still would be nice to just update and not go trough all uninstall/install routine each time. Im on cyanogen mod 7, tried reflashing rom, same thing. Hope someone can help me.
Thanks in advance guys.
Did you try to clear the cache/data or backup your rom and stuffs and wipe.. this may help

Hey all,
I've been trying to search for this issue but couldn't find and answer so I decided to post it here.
About a month ago I decided to install the CyanogenMod4.0.4 ROM on my G1. I remember I was able to access the Market because I downloaded so apps onto my phone, but over the last 2 weeks, I can't get it running anymore. Everytime I go to open it, I get the 'force close' message. I've tried turning my phone off and on to see if that cured it but I still get the same message. I also noticed one of my apps doesn't work at all anymore (Shazam) which makes me wonder if I might of accidentally changed a setting somewhere which is not letting it work. I had downloaded a few apps from the market when it did work and some apps work properly and others don't. I hope this doesn't have anything to do with the ROM because I really like it and want to keep it installed...
any answers would be great, thanks
have you tried running fix_permissions? that usually clears up a lot of problems.
no, I haven't tried that yet. I don't know how to run that. Where do I go to do that?
well, I figured out how to do fix_permissions
I ran it, rebooted my phone, but I still have the same issue. My Market doesn't open.
i guess I'm going to have to just simply re-install the ROM?
I know there's a new one out so I might just do that, but I'm hoping that I don't continue to have this problem when I update
You could always re install 4.0.4 again, that should repair the market and it should just upgrade so all your settings will still be there.... have you got the CM recovery bootloader installed? if not, do that firts, its a life saver.

No, I don't have the CM bootloader, so I'll have to get it and I'll try that. Thanks!
Hi
I am unable to install anything...
it all started with me flashing phoenix and than SN... they all worked well
but after my last flash... my phone would not install any apk or install anything from tibu or from the market...
I took out the sim card and it decided to download...
so I traded in the phone and got a new sim card but the same thing is happeneing...
does anyone have a clue what the problem might be?
maybe a poblem from the maket to my account or bad app???
Please help this is making me very frustrated...
Thank you in advance.
nothing???
Restore your phone to factory default???
did that done that... clear cache and all that...
but in stock it works... only when using custom roms...
i tried other things but it seems to work without ext sd card....
maybe its faulty... but than it did work when i exchanged my sim card also...
i still cant figure it out but i gave up...
noone seems to want to give any ideas or help =/
but thank you for your reply.
Are you getting some error or anything when trying to install an app. or does it just sit there doing nothing?
Also, what kind of apps are you trying to install? are they "trusted" apps or 3rd party ones from the market place. I had some issues with a few roms that would not allow me to install 3rd party apps ( so all apps haha) I found a security setting in the menu>settings>applications area
allow unknown source is checked and no its all apps in general including ones i dl off the internet and on sd card.
TiBu isnt able to restore it also.
no error message it just the install screen on the market and it just sits there and i am able to push the ok button on the install screen many times and it does absolutely nothing...
Thank you.
Ok, i found this on another forum,
"If your rooted and using a MCR rom, ie Vanillia or t-mobile stock style and you have recently rebooted your phone you may need to go back to recovery and do a repair ext filesystem in the partition menu." It worked for my friend who was having a similar issue. and since it does not do any damage to your current system its worth a try. Im still looking for more info for you
cant seem to find that in the recovery mode...
and thank you so much for your help...
i am right now using the newest phoenix rom.
I guess he ran the "fix permissions" in clockwork as well. trying to get ahold of him to have him talk me through it
ah
Those I already tried even the one in ROM manager.
i ran it again and it worked for a min or two than it does the same thing hahahahaha
im about to give up....
really ty for those tips.
Sorry none of them worked lol i guess google will be next stop for me lol GL
Hi u all..

Now i have the (wonderful) Dexter mod on my E7, but still i cant update the app.
When i download it and then install, i always get en error message
"application not installed"
can someone help me pls?
thanks
simone
ps sorry for my bad english
I've been prompted to do the update for a few weeks and still have the same problem even after I did a full wipe to install the latest mod.
Thought I'd try to uninstall and reinstall the program, but even an uninstall fails!
Thanx in advance for any suggestions on how to get around this problem.
It is installed as a System App.
SystemApp Remover from the market will let you uninstall it.
Finally did a factory reset and restored from Titanium backup. That fixed it.
But I'm going to skip updating FBreader for a while.
install root explorer, delete from system/app, reboot tablet and install new version of FBReader.
hey, so ive had many problems with titanium in the past and as of right now i dont have a current backup of all my apps because i acidentally uninstalled TB about a month ago and it hasent been able to re-installq so i dont have the luxory like i did in the past of being able to do a clean wipe to get it back working again, if it was that kind of issue.
But i was wondering if theres a way to installing it through fast boot or sideload it to try to bypass this error that pops up when i try to install it that i have insufficient storage.
p.s. not sure if this is right place for thread, and ive tried everything, only thing that will work is a clean install of android (im still on 4.3) or a more secure way of installing the apk/app (i try installing with play store but doesnt work.. also a current apk doesnt work [and that apk works])
Hello fellow OmniROM useres, I am using Omnirom on my international SGS4, always latest nightly.
But since yesterday I have this weird error message whenever I try to install an app over PlayStore

even though I have more than enough free space, as you can see here:

I've alyready tried everything I could find on this error message but it still won't install anything.
Looking forward to a hopefully quick solution, many thanks in advance
(links in that weird format because forum won't let me post them)
bump, please help I really want to continue using this rom
Hey
I had the same issue some time ago. I couldn't install new apps or update older ones. I couldn't even download anything.
I don't know why this happened or what the cause is. What did the trick for me was a complete re-install of everything.
Do a full wipe. Not even the os should remain. Install the latest os. Install all apps from the play store and restore your app data.
After that everything worked again.
I hope this helps you too
Try install without SD card.
