hi all,
I got a problem. I am now using Nexus 7 with 4.2 (multi user support)
I have 2 users on my Nexus 7. I want to install the same APK on both users. I can install the APK on the primary user successfully. However, for the 2nd user, whenever I finished the APK installation, it states the APK is not installed.
Is there any settings or tick allowing me to install APK on the 2nd user?
Many thanks

You are doing it wrong...
When you set up a second user, they have their own account. On that user, open the Play store.
Under options, click Add account and enter the account you use on your main user.
Uncheck all the Synch options.
Now you will see all the apps you installed on the main user.
Just click Install on all the ones you want the second user to have.
They will install instantly - no download - and a symlink will be set to your main copy.
This way you never have two copies of the same app eating up your space.
At this point you can delete the Play store reference to your main account or just leave it.
Note: Don't use Root with multiuser until someone fixes it. Lag will make the nexus unuseable.

Are you sure you can install 3rd Party on Primary and Secondary users on 4.2.1? I have just tried. Still can't install 3rd Party APK on the Secondary user.
Is there any settings for this?

Nope

if you sideload the app using your PC through adb it will show up in both the primary and secondary user. I'm not sure if it matters but I would probably make sure you are in the primary when connecting with adb.
I also have this problem. If I use apkextractor the file works in primary user, but when i move it to secondary the apk corrupts
Anyone has this problem?

It's true, transferring the apk from ur computer to your android device using adb will make the apk visible to both the primary and secondary user.
What I did was:
Setup the adb thing (which was a quite an ordeal on it's own).
Then using the push command, transferred my apk to my device.
adb push C:\path\to\file\origianlFileName.apk /sdcard/Download/newFileName.apk
I chose a new filename (MCPE.apk) because the original had spaces and was long and hard to memorize.
The transfer was successful, but when I check to see if it was there, using ASTRO File Manager and also Windows,
the file name was the original file name (what it was called on my computer). Installing it at this point didn't work.
But then I renamed the file (using windows) back to "MCPE.apk" and THEN it installed correctly!!
YAY!!
Also before installing, I made the secondary user a developer, by that weird "Build Number" trick.
Not sure if that has any effect..
I am unable to install apk from my secondary user ,I even tried to rename the apks , I am able to download apps from playstore , the same apks install fine under the primary user , though enabled unknown sources option is greyedout for secondary user and I am not able to enable developer option for the secondary user ( the build tap procedure doesn't seems to work ) , I am on 4.4.2 , did anyone able to get through this ?

I may know the issue.
If you install an APK on the primary user and if you have updated the version of such APK to a newer version before you install the original APK to the Second user account, you will have such problem.
So, make sure to install on both user accounts with same APK.
hello. i've been trying to root my kfhd7" for more than a week now.
i've tried almost everything here on xda. also on google. and nothing made a chance.
this kindle is a unregistered kindle. i got it from cash converters for 50 pounds.
i cannot register it.
i've done all, drivers.adb.eclipse.sdk. nothing goes like it says on forums.
7.3.1_user_3140720
if anyone knows how to root and push twrp, let me know, please.
thx in advance.
What were you using to try to root it? Also i figured i would ask but your using windows right? I personally use linux to root mine because i don't have to worry about driver issues typically and i prefer linux but i can help you out probably on windows. Also u have adb enable on th kindle correct?

windows 8.

yea i got adb. i rooted my hox+ 2 months ago.
I am going to throw a random guess out there based on experience with windows 8. Windows 8 has a nasty little feature i think vist ha that i didnt see in windows 7 about unsigned drivers. Last i checked when usine the adb driver on windows u hav to modify the one that come with the sdk, not very difficult if you know what your doing, problem was i can remember if the drivers were originally signe or not but by modifying them to accept the kindle adb interface it wouldn't let it be considered signed because it was tampered with so windows 8 would throw a fit an not let the drivers install. That's just what happened last time i used window 8. I don't know if this i your problem but if you open a command prompt and run adb devices with the kindle plugged in with adb enabled what is the response.

error: more than one device and emulator.
adb devices:

emulator-5554 device
Ok weird seems like driver aren't the issue, usually on windows 8 that's what i check first, unless that happen to be your phone or something but i would throw a guess that having the emulator running at the same time might cause problems. I may not respond for like half an hour i have to go somewhere but il be back in a bit. If worst comes to worst i can always use teamviewer to help you unless your uncomfortable with that. I feel kind odd suggesting that on a forum, but that's how i usually help people. Anyways i would disable that emulator and try rooting again.

Do you happen to have bluestacks on your pc. I had the same problem and as soon as i shutdown bluestacks it found my kindle. Also you can try to kill adb and possibly the emu from task manager processes tab. I think killing adb should do the trick though.

I've had no issues rooting 7.3.1 and new 7.4.1 firmware using the Bin4ry method. I did it on Windows 7 and have not tried on windows 8. You should not need sdk or adb to get it to work. Just properly installed drivers. Checkout my guide here.

Try Googling "viber android apk download"or add your tablet name in the end to be specific. and download the apk,install and if warning shows up just tick 'install apps from unknown sources' then continue installation.Done.

If an app need access to your contact, doesn't matter if you got it from the Play Store or sideload, it required the same permission.
Install on your phone, extract from phone and install on tablet. Sometimes it work sometimes it doesn't.
If your nexus is rooted.
You can use adb to pull it
Adb pull /data/app "full name of apk" "location on pc you want it to go"
Or use a file explorer with root rights to go to /data/app and copy it to your sdcard.

It works on my Wi-Fi only tablet. I just use the same number I had on my phone. When u first open it'll ask for a phone number. You can just use any number that u have access to. It will send a text with a confirmation to that number. Just check the phone and enter the confirmation number on the tablet, then you're good to go.

Hey all,
I'm coming from the Samsung Epic 4G touch ..... thankfully off sprint ......... that was a horrible 4 years of abysmal coverage .. slow speeds when it would connect .. and random disconnects thrown in just for fun....
I'm pulling crazy fast speeds everywhere I go ... Hit 50Mbps this morning on my commute..
However, one thing I liked about my samsung was that there was an APK to bypass the exchange security pin ...
Anybody know if the Epic 4g Touch (Sprint version of SGS2) APK will work on the G2? or if there is a version out there that will accomplish this ?
I saw one for the GS4 ...

Are you rooted? Do you have twrp installed? If so try it and give us a yay or nay. It's not that difficult.

Solution
I just did this on my own before seeing your post- hopefully you will find this useful.
I used this set of APKs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1965468
Grab Email-JB.apk and Exchange2.apk
First, you need to completely uninstall (not just freeze) the LG Email app. I used Titanium Back to do this- make a backup of the app first in case you ever wanted to go back for whatever reason. Once the LG Email app is uninstalled, you can install the 2 AOSP APKs.
I didn't try installing them normally (download->open->install), it's worth a shot- instead I used the directions in the post to push the APKs via ADB.
You should see "Success" after pushing both via ADB (I did Exchange2.apk first, but I can't imagine it would matter). Unplug your phone, open Email, and you're set. My Email is syncing perfectly with my corporate email, no lock screen password required.

YES!!!!!!!!!! This totally works..
Thank you for looking out, and thanks for posting this ... I've been waiting to be able to add this .. and having to carry 2 phones to check email because I didnt want to be pinlocked on my G2!!
My procedure -
Rom tool box free for the uninstall, the titanium way didnt work for me because I have TWRP installed .. and when it would try the recovery removal .. it would boot to TWRP instead of the stock recovery ...
Anyways, Rom Toolbox free has an uninstall utility, couldnt be easier .. uninstalls without a reboot needed.
Turned on wireless storage, copied over exchange2.apk and Email-jb.apk and installed through android .. didnt use the ADB method .... it works perfectly!!!!!!
Thanks again.
That works. Only downside is it removed the feature of peak and off peak for message retrieval. oh well.

Tried this several ways, but it does not install. Can u give some more direction on this? Do we put itf in the apps folders? Flash it? Any advice would be appreciated. I like the lg email app and don't want to go back to the stock one if possible.
if someone figures out how to do this with the stock email app that comes with the att version, that would be awesome. I like that version better than the one you have to install to get this to work.
I really hate having to use a pin, but I have to give my work permission to remote wipe my phone. Is there any chance this could be flagged by my employer and they remote wipe my phone? That would really suck because of the lack of memory card. Anybody that has been remote wiped, did it affect the entire phone, or just the main system?
This guide is for ROOTED AND NON ROOTED USERS]Ok so guys. I was just messing around because this auto update thing was annoying and found every single guide out there. Non of them did the job well. One even freezed the download at 100% but still in memory -_-
Soo I decided to do my digging myself and traced the exact sequence of the update to its core programs and believe it or not it doesn't even have the name ota or anything like that on it!
You can either do this rooted or unrooted but more efficient as root
It can work on any version as long as you see this program present>>>Amazon Device Client Platform or ADCP
Now I'm using a 3rd generation rooted and everything modded kindle (except custom Rom) but I am busybox and whatever
Which can be obtained by just downloading this loving program courtesy of peniscorp.com..if you wanna know if it works for you just download E.S file manager...goto /device and yes you can go there without root ..just go there and open build.prop and look.for Soho...if u see it...you're good to go ...
NOW LETS CUT TO THE CHASE
Step 1. Press the thanks.button down below
Step 2 Make sure u do number 1 lol
Step 3. Goto your device settings
Step 3 goto applications
Step 4 goto Manage applications
Step 5 in the drop down menu (assuming all versions have it )
And press "all applications"
Step 6 look for the program "ADCP" or Amazon Device Client Platform
Step 7 as non root user you can just fc it and clear data and cache and just avoid checking for updates! We don't wanna remind the device it should be installing updates
HOWEVER IF YOU ARE ROOTED
You could just fc it and use Droidwall or any other firewall app and look for that sucker and block it!
Don't ever try to uninstall it!
Rooted or not rooted ..those pesky updates won't bother u again!
Ps.
Droidwall is available on play store ...you can sideload it of course ..and the app it self has a pretty decent GUI so I don't think I need to get into detail on using the app
Well that's it folkes and believe me NO other ota update blocker works for the kfhd 7 2013 3rd generation and I have Looked everywhere and followed EVERY guide
They are Soo not fool.proof
So there you go guys hope it works as it did for me !
