(emphasis added)
if you have the zip on your computer, extract/unzip the gapps file, then move the appropriate *.apk file to your phone install it

You will need a file manager with root permissions, move the apk to /system/app give it the proper permissions, should be read write and execute.

does anyone no how to make an apk install? for example miui music someone gave me the apk and it installed fine but I downloaded the miui rom and extracted it and took out the miui music but it wont install and I cant use root explorer cuz im not rooted is there something special you have to do to the apk so it will install?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I believe that u have to re-sign the Apk .... if u search the forums or Google it u may find an answer.... also if u search u might find an updated miui music apk.
That is all
nobody calls my EVO a fizzle and gets away with it!!
Indeed...The apk needs to be signed before it's installed. Download zipsigner 2 from the market. Put the .apk on your phone, sign it, and install it with your file manager.
I just get astro file manager and go to whatever folder it saved to

ok I signed the apk it installs fine but force closes when I open it

No problem.....I'll give it a shot.
One other thing......Did you uninstall your old Miui Music app before you installed this one, or did you install over the top of it? Sometimes it makes a difference.

Hi All,
I am using the latest nightly on galaxy note N7000. My problem is related to .apk files. I have couple of .apk's in my sd card which i cannot install. As soon as i touch it to open for installantion, it gives me an error file cannot open. Please Help!!
First bit of "help" is that if you don't fully and completely describe your question, it isn't answerable.
Which APKs? How are you trying to install them? What do the logs ("logcat") tell you? Have you successfully installed them on other ROMs? Which ROMs? Which versions of APKs and ROMs? Are you using stock kernels? Have you tried it on a clean install of the ROM?
the built in downloads is apart of the documents app. it wont install apk files. u need to download a file manager from the app store to do so.

Thank You for the quick reply. I tried to install them with using a kind of app installer and it installed.
Hello all,
My device is an ls980 running rooted, stock kitkat. About a week after the ZVC update (kitkat), my Lg Gallery application stopped working. It would not open, giving me an error message saying that "gallery has stopped." So I tried an "uninstall" application from the market to uninstall the stock app, and then I attempted to restore/reinstall it again. Every attempt I have made has been unsuccessful and the app cannot be installed.
So my question is: how can I get the Lg Gallery application reinstalled and working properly?
Thank you, I appreciate anyone's help greatly.
How did you uninstall the stock gallery from the play store when it's not available on the play store and I'm sure the reason it's not installing is because the app needs to be placed in the system/priv-app folder and needs to be given the correct permissions

I uninstalled the app using a "system app uninstaller" application. The APK file is still located in my system/priv-app folder, and I have even tried installing it from there using root explorer. What permissions need to be applied?

you apply the rw-r--r-- (0644) and then reboot, the phone should say android is upgrading and it should be working again

Those permissions are already applied to the file, but the APK still refuses to install even after a full reboot.

I copied the odex file over to the priv-app folder and added the permissions, but after a reboot, the gallery still will not install.
Perhaps the file is somehow damaged?
Well here's my gallery apk

Hmm, this is very odd. I continue to get the same error. I guess I will have to continue researching the issue for a solution.

very odd indeed maybe you should find the apk/odex for your device or maybe placing them somewhere else like system/app

I was able to get the app installed again (although it did it on its own after a reboot and some tinkering...); however, the gallery still cannot open as before.
I recently installed com.sonyericsson.album_5.4.A.0.22.apk, but like a noob I didn't read the description before hand and the apk file is actually only for Xperia Z2 System/Media/App ] Apks and Odex and Jar files for Z1
The apk installed as normal, however I can't find the application in my app drawer and using root explorer the album apk is not showing in system/app system/private app or any other location.
The problem is that I am not able to install the correct version as the wrong apk has to be removed somehow first, when I try to restore the version that used to work from titanium backup - it just hangs at restoring and never restores successfully. Trying to restore the apk directly from a file manager results in a "not installed" message - I think this is because the wrong apk is still hidden somewhere in my device.
Any suggestions guys? any suggestions will be highly appreciated :good:
Heres the thread from which I found the incorrect apk from:

I've also attached the apk file here.

If you installed it like a normal app (just opened the apk), then look into /data/app.

Thanks for the suggestion, but its not there either - strange.
Then how do you know, that it isn't gone yet?
The system wont allow me to install it again or any other com.sonyericsson.album.apk file, I'll keep checking system directories one by one until I find it.
Flash philz recovery, then download aroma file explorer from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2236977 then, boot into recovery, begin to flash aroma file manager. Once the manager loads, navigate to the file you want to delete and do it that way
