My app can't be published to GP so it's only downloadable from my site and to be done of course user must check the unknown source box. So my question is: is there a way to trick android and make the .apk once downloaded directly installable without activating the unknown source? Not a big problem, but might be a small hassle or complication for some of my users.
Thanx

Hello everyone, so I have a game Main data, and its apk file for installation. I have successfully copied the apk file to the "Download" folder. But when I try to copy the game data to "Android/obb" folder, it says that "impossible to copy, the peripheral device doesn't answer or is inactivated"
I try to uninstall the driver and reinstall, it doesn't work, Debogging mode via USB is enabled, Allow unknown source is enabled too.
My i9500 is rooted with Wanamlite v1.2 rom.
Do you know where is the problem? Thank you in advance
Did you pirate the game or buy it from the Play Store?

Hello everyone
I am sorry that my first post is a request, but I couldn't find what I need anywhere.
I have a SCH-i705 running Android 4.1.2, it is not mine, but belongs to the company I work for. they have an Admin app installed that blocks google play; they don't want users to install apps that might interfere with their installed app. however, I can install and uninstall apps using adb.
I need to update Google Maps to the latest v7. I searched and downloaded a copy, but it flickers too much,and I read somewhere that I need the version that is specific to this device. I tried with androidvm in virtualbox and downloaded a copy, but the same thing, flickering, maybe I didn't provide the emulator with the correct specifications for this tab. I tried also to modify google play by renaming the package then repackage it using apktools, but I might missed something because the new renamed phonesky package crashes with error Can't find resource for bundle 'org.keyczar.i18n.messages_en_US', key ''
solving this problem for a newbie to android programming might take some time, so for now, I need copy of the Maps app pulled from this device if possible or be pointed to a renamed google play or a replacement for it.
thanks in advance.
Thank you Jxt., I will download it.
on the other hand, someone at another forum told me to use Real APK Leecher which is here at xda. I will give it a try too.
Hallo all. As we all know a few days ago we are able to upgrade our wp8 devices to gdr3 preview using Preview for Developers XAP from Store. I was waiting to see if anyone would give an idea about Interop unlocking using that app but nothing, so I m giving.
When you install XAP and check the box, application edit one line in registry, exactly HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo\
We already have XAP content uploaded here by @WithinRafael
When I make it XAP and want to install it on my HTC 8s show me error, probably because this is ATIV S version.
The basic idea would be if we could remake the application and make that instead of the this registry, change one other for unlocking. Maybe we will have permission if that is possible to remake. Tell me if I m wrong, maybe I am because I m new here. I just want to share this with you.
The problem is that the xap requires interop-unlock to be able to sideload it. That's why you can't deploy it back to your 8S. When things get delivered from the store, they are processed differently and are inherently "trusted" vs when you sideload an app on a dev-unlocked device. Another example of this is Microsoft's native Youtube app...If you install it from the store, it works fine. If you try to sideload a decrypted version of the xap, it fails to load because it uses "ID_CAP_MEDIALIB_PHOTO_FULL", which is not available via normal dev unlock.
Yep! App from Store can have ANY CAPs, cause those are checked by MS.
Sideloaded apps on DevUnlocked phone can have any of the 3rd party CAPs.
Sideloaded apps on InteropUnlocked phone can have any of the 2nd party (OEM) CAPs.
Sideloaded apps on RootUnlocked phone can have any of the 1st party (MS) CAPs.
I prefer to call it "capability unlock rather than "root unlock" simply because we don't yet have "root" permissions for most purposes, but the point stands. And I'm working on that permission issue!
Hi I have NewsOn apk working on my AFTS but I can't get the application to work on a coworkers AFTS. Can I copy and paste files from my device to another so that NewsOn will work the same as on my device?
The problem is NewsOn requires Google services, which I somehow was able to install on my device but can't get it to install and run on my buddy's.
Thanks for any advice in advance.
In the tech world - dependancies are nothing that you just shrug off.
If the app needs the Google Services Framework, it needs the google services framework. And it will always ask for it - ad nausium, and probably quit if it doesnt find it.
On Android in general - an easy way to copy apps and its settings ("save data") from one device to another one is Titanium Backup.
You need root to use it - btw. That are other "cloud backup solutions" that don't require root per se, all of those arent very good. Without root you run into severe limitations with restoring app data. Because of the android security framework (one app isn't allowed to write data into another apps data folder).
But that doesn't help you one bit - if the app requires a Google framework thats on your device, but not on your "buddies".
Theres no magic that will solve that.

Thank you for your input.
It seems like there's always a catch or a road block to work around in the "Android World".
This problem I'm faced with, doesn't it seem like there has to be an achievable fix?
Im just not on that level to know exactly why or pin point what I did that gave me the ability
to use an app that from what I kind of understood isn't possible to install on a non rooted fire stick.
Isn't there a method I've must have unknowingly performed that enabled me to use NewsOn?
Or could it just be a glitch or fluke?
I haven't heard or found anything on the web indicating someone has installed an app on a non rooted fire stick that requires Google services in order to function.
What's your or anyone elses opinion on this?
Thank you for sharing.
I was able able to install and get working NewsOn on a Firestick Gen 2 without root. Installed NewsOn (Apps2fire) then dumped my Google Play and Play Services from my phone (apk manager +) and used apps2fire to install them on the Firestick too. BINGO! Unfortunately I can NOT get it working on Fire TV Box using the same method..
Hello, just received my Fire HD 8 (2017), with Fire OS 5.3.3.0.
I am aware no root exists for that firmware at the minute. I was wondering if there was a way to stop OTA updates, so that if root comes out for that version I'm not stuck on the latest. Thanks.
I just received one as well and came here looking for similar info. Short of keeping the device turned off, I don't think there is a way to stop it from trying to update without root. However, you should be able to block the requests by using a no-root firewall app like NetGuard or NoRoot Data Firewall. See the following for some info:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hd8-hd10/help/block-ota-updates-root-t3496861
(Note: one user there mentions the OP method no longer works on 5.3.3)
I received mine today as well, but unwittingly entered wifi details during the setup and, of course, the bloody thing updated straightaway. So now its on 5.4.
Just one thing. I have developer options and install from unknown sources enabled, but when I try to install any apk's copied from my phone using myappshare, the install button doesn't work. Is this because they were downloaded from the Google app store originally? None of the copied apps are available on the Amazon app store.

someone on a different thread mentioned that a reboot is needed after enabling the "install from unknown sources" for the install button to work.
