[Q] Mynet.apk problems

*Update*
n00b 1 - mynet.apk 0
Maybe I can help some other folks with what I have found out today.
The problem I was running into is that I was downloading the wrong mynet.apk from chadhaney.com
I was needing the .516 files not the .604 files that are listed on that page. Go to the top left of the page and look for the "Get 1.113.516 default files here"
Give it a try and maybe it will fix your 3G Mobile Hotspot problem too.
Hello all.
I am a total n00b to this whole rooting deal. I had been waiting for an extremely easy way to root. I found z4root for download on the market and boom I was rooted. So I immediately went to removing crapware. THEN I decided to do some reading after I removed the stuff and decided to reinstall and rename.
I had zero trouble with anything except mynet.apk.
I have downloaded it from a couple of different places, no dice.
So I am hoping that someone would be nice and kind enough to help a dumbazz noob out with a complete walk-thru of how to reinstall this to my phone, I will beg if that is what it takes.
Thanks,
Brent

just put it in the system/app folder. use Root Explorer app to make sure the permissions are the same as your other apk's. then reboot phone.
here a link to the stock droid x apk's http://www.chadhaney.com/droidXDefault/

I still have yet to try to fix this problem past what I first tried.
My question now is what makes mynet.apk any different than the blockbuster.apk? Why the permissions need to be changed for this and none of the others.

you might not need to. i just mentioned it to make sure.

With the other apk's I just put them on my sdcard and used astro and it very simply installed with no trouble. Mynet.apk goes thru the same process but ends with it saying ''application not installed''

Ok I broke down and bought root explorer. I placed the apk in the system/app folder and changed the permissions to match up exactly with the other apk's.
But I still can not get this to install. What to try next?

Noob here in need of help

I'm not a noob to Android, but I am a noob to this whole ROM scene, or whatever you want to call it.
Basically, I wanted to make my phone able to install apps that i downloaded from my PC. Some quick research told me ok, I gotta check off an option "allow unknown sources." That option isn't there. I do some more research and I find out I gotta root my phone. Ugh, I didn't want to get into this stuff but fine, I'll do it.
This is the tutorial that I followed, to the T. briefmobile [DOT] com/motorola-atrix-4g-root
So I root my Atrix, yay, I should be able to install this neato app I got my SD card now right? No, that "allow unknown sources" option still doesn't exist. What gives?
So after scouring the internet (including a long time lurking this forum) for hours, attempting to use SuperOneClick and freeze one me 3 times, 2 factory resets, and doing bundles of research I've come to the conclusion that I'm completely lost, and scared of doing anything else that I don't know how-to and bricking my phone. So I come to you gentlemen for help. Please don't just post a link to a sticky (which I've probably already read) and send me off reading more gobbly-gook. Please, just help a bro out here.

Edit:
also on my atrix there is no option to toggle it, but i can still install apps from astro etc. so it could just not be showing up. give Astro File Manager a go to install the APK

^^^^^^^+1.
just follow that. im not sure if you will have the option to check "allowed unknown installation" but you shouldnt need that.
oh yeah and update to 1.83 if u want faster upload speeds..

[Q] Out of Space??? [SOLVED]

I'm about to destroy my phone and go back to iPhone 5 because that didn't constantly make me want to destroy everything around me.
I wanted to side-load an app. I just unlocked my bootloader and rooted it and was re-installing my apps.
When I go to install an app it says that there is no more space. the file is 4.85mb and I have 12GB of storage left.
I tried:
-Re-booting
-Installing other apps (which works)
-Clearing the cache
-Downloading Trail from PlayStore (I get the same result)
NEW:
-When plugged in via USB to my PC, device doesn't show up under "Computer" [Running Windows 7 x64)
What I did:
I backed up my phone and wiped the whole thing because I was running out of time last night
Thankfully Foxnov1990 and ImbaWind's tips worked. I restored the original backup and it solved my problem. Thanks so much! Love ya guys! :victory:

AFAIK my friend and I don't have this problem with our N4 and my friends don't have this problem with their GNEX.
Btw this is a N4 forum.

it's your problem you don't know how to solve, not google's.
if you're here just to unleash this anger then YOU leave.
the guy is right about what he said in the first line.
android wasn't made to piss you off, it was made to stay stock, but you rooted it.
solution? easy: 1) install a stock-like ROM or 2) unroot...

Lol you'll get a lot of constructive answers with your style of posting What have to tried so far to fix the problem? Could we get a screenshot of your storage page?

I get the attitute, but you might wanna at least try to be friendlier as we're just here to help.
But On-Topic: have you tried this?
File explorer (app)
Go to /data/app (in System (root))
Del this line
com.maxmpz.audioplayer-1.odex
I've had it before that on stock ROM (aka unlocked bootloader and rooted) which means that it's not DEodexed that some Odex files were left behind. Which means that whatever you try, as long as that file is there, you won't be able to install the app. (shouldn't happen but it's possible in rare occasions)
Hope it helped.
If it didn't help and the Odex file is not there, see if you have Lucky Patcher installed, deinstall it (it sometimes holds on to odex files), and try installing PowerAmp now. Then reinstall Lucky Patcher

Honestly, I have installed and deinstalled the app more than you can possibly imagine... and I've nearly never had issues with reinstalling.
And when I did get issues it was Lucky Patching (having patched the app) that was holding on to the odex and I couldn't delete it till Lucky patcher was deinstalled.
So not sure what **** you mean but there was always an easy solution for me

Oh yep, always happen when I use lucky patcher to removed the app's ads !

I've run into a similar issue before.
I've had similar issues when I've removed an .apk using adb or root explorer without removing its associated .odex file.
Use root explorer and try to find an .odex file that has the same name as the package that you are having trouble installing.
There are some cache cleaning utilities in the Play store that might assist you as well.

Good luck. Also, try to approach asking for help in a more mature manner in the future. You are not entitled to hack a device then complain when something unexpected happens.

Sideload Ouya Store on any android Device

i originally posted the steps on the thread below
http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/general/ouya-store-amazon-fire-tv-t2806575
I was able to install the Ouya store on the Amazon Fire TV but you can grab those apks and install it on any android device, press the home key and select the ouya launcher (there is an ouya app that gets install that wont work because it checks your device) log in with your Outa account.

Amazing work. I used it to install it to my Note 3. It worked fine and I can install games and everything. Only one problem; the controller is completely messed up. Is there anyway to properly configure the controller, so that the "O" is actually "O", etc...?
Thanks in advance...

You need to be rooted. Copy the OUYA controller kl file to your system/usr/keylayout/ folder on your note then reboot. That should map your OUYA controller the same on your device as it is on the OUYA.
Here's a link to download the kl file.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9mcZwWJuSpBRjNqRDVvWlhNOWs/edit?usp=sharing

I went to the keylayout folder on the OUYA and founds many kl files, which one should I transfer to my phone?

I added a download link to my post above. I believe it is vendor_2836_product_0001.kl.

I added the file but do I need to delete the rest of the files? I tried to play The Amazing Frog (the kids love it), but the frog keeps rounding around itself and the L and R buttons do not work as supposed. I will still try to other games and report back...

Make sure you put the file in the correct location then reboot. The kl file won't be loaded until you have restarted your device. I've only tried 10-15 games on my tablet so far but haven't ran into any problems yet. Don't delete any of the other files, they are for different controllers.

I found out what I was doing wrong; the permissions of the kl file. They were totally off and when I when I changed them to rw-r--r-- , it went fine and everything worked great.
The problem is still in the menu button. It goes directly to the home screen, but that's pretty much acceptable at this point.
Again, I wanna say thank you so much for your support...

Sorry, I forgot to mention that. Somehow I've never had that problem. I haven't had the permissions change on me when copying. It's always been my own file though used through the cloud so maybe that has something to do with it. Glad you got it working.
On a side note. My nexus 5 running android l didn't like the ouya launcher. Probably because of art. The first time I ended up in a boot loop but it could have also been a combination of me messing with other stuff too.

Couldn't have done it without you. If you find a solution for the "U" main center button, let me know. It acts as "home" button and always takes me to the home screen.

What are you wanting that button to be set as? You can change it to be whatever kind of button input you want in the kl file. Just open it in a text editor.

It should represent the menu button, not the home button. I'll try playing with the kl file and let you know.
By the way, I use the baxy launcher instead of the normal ouya launcher. This way, I keep my home launcher as it is and then use this app as a launcher for the store. I guess I read in your thread for the fire TV that you need to disable the home launcher to be able to launch the ouya one. Try that out...

For some reason every time I try to install the apk's I get a parsing error. Has anyone else encountered this? I've redownloaded the zip multiple times with the same problem each time.

Does it let you unzip the package? I haven't ever tried to extract it. Just open in es and you can install them without extracting.

Could be the stock nook rom. Even rooted it doesn't work with a lot of hacks. There's some good ROMs for it if you have a custom recovery.

I had a Nook HD before and I had a CM ROM on it and it worked like a charm. Don't fear it, just do a backup before trying anything. It turned it into a real tablet. I returned to the stock only to sell it.
Anyway, here are the apks without zipping. Who knows?

Arena of Valor can't be installed

Hey everyone,
This is not a super important question, but it still irritates me. I wanted to try out the game Arena of Valor (which hit the German PlayStore recently) and play a round with some friends. But it turns out it apparently can't be installed. (My friends running the default roms on their phones (Huawei etc.) Have no issues at all)
I have an Axon7 running one of the latest Resurrection Remix Builds and I am rooted using Magisk. I have not experienced any other problems with downloading or installing apps from the PlayStore.
But whenever I tap on download, the download of the game starts and (since it is a rather large one) takes a while (I get the normal download bar and everything). Then after a while it says "installing" for another like 5 minutes to then suddenly give me an error message which reads as follows (rough translation from German):
" App can not be downloaded.
'Arena of Valor ..... Game' (full name of the game) can not be downloaded. Please try again. If the issue remains you can get help from the Probelmsolving article. (Code of error: 492) "
So obviously I tried again (for like 15 times now), I also tried rebooting my phone several times and I did search the code of error online and found out that it's supposed to be google-related and clearing the cache of the PlayStore and services could fix this, but it did not for me.
At this point I'm pretty confused, since I can install any other app (I've tried so far) just fine and I am now wondering why this would be. Could it be an issue with root, but then again I'd think it would tell me, as other apps did before. Does any one else have this issue or the app successfully installed on their device? Or does anyone have an idea what could cause my problem and fix this? Thanks for any help in advance!
Cheers

Just tried to download it. It worked fine, installed, started up OK. I'm on stock 7.1.1. B05 (A2017G). I'd suggest You to find the game's .apk somewhere (there are some sites hosting android apps) and try to download/install from there.

Hey thanks for your feedback! I already did that as well... should have added it above :/ I downloaded from apkmirror and another site and got it to start nad was asked to give permissions, but after that everytime a pop-up showed up telling me to download again from google play, since there was some kind of error. So that didn`t do the trick either for me.

Well, I'd say I thought so it'd do that, but it did worth a shot. I'm sorry it didn't help.
Edit: Just got something on my mind. On ine of the stock updates (can't remember which one) download from the Play Store was really, I mean REALLY slow through Wi-Fi. But I realized that if I simply start the download then put the phone in 'sleep' mode by pressing the power button, the download speed is just turns back to normal. It was pretty obvious during big downloads. It was really slow (shown 30 minutes or so for finish), then I just pressed power, checked on it in a couple of minutes and download was done. I don't know why it did this, but it worked every time, maybe you should try that. Other than that, go back to stock. jk.

I guess that app has obb too, so you should install an FTP server on your phone and an FTP client on one of your friends' phones, then go to /sdcard/Android/obb/ and copy the folder of the game to the same place on your phone

Lol no, what Play store does is just download the apk from a database and install it on your phone, then download whatever extra files the app needs. If you bought the app it will also provide authentication in case that it needs to get it.
So basically you can do the same process manually (as long as it's free) by downloading the apk and the obb, then moving the obb folder (named com.devname.appname) to /sdcard/Android/obb/.
Otherwise you can try wiping Play store's cache and try to download it, and if that still doesn't do anything delete its data.

Just checking, is your Axon 7 a Chinese version- the A2017?
I have had trouble downloading large data files for games on this from playstore too... It might have something to do with the fact that google had to be installed from other places and google has a security issue with our devices...
After a few updates, currently on B08, it works. Can download apps that failed prior to this update...

No I have the G-Model. So I don't think that should be the issue. But still thanks for the thought!

Just to learn something again, what exactly is OBB? And if I download the apk I don't have the obb with it automatically?

And I`m having trouble copying/moving the folder into obb (apparantly this is not supposed to be done)
Is there a way to do it?

Just move it lol
Where did you get the obb folder from? Try root browser, even if you don't have root.
The obb is just additional files that the app uses. I guess they need to do that because you's have to download the whole thing if they just updated the app like they usually do. So for a 3 GB game you might only need to download ~100 mb instead of the whole 3 GB when you update it

OBB files are basically the data files., just in a different format. The Obb files will come in a separate folder if the whole thing isn't RAR'ed or Zipped up...
You should have games apk file and a separate folder with OBB files inside.

Well I am rooted (Magisk) but ES Explorer is unable to enable the root functions for some reason even though it has Superuser rights in Magisk... And solid explorer as any other I've tried so far won't move files to the obb folder.
And I got the file from the phone of a friend as suggested

Again, try Root browser (the old one won't be able to move stuff to the SD card, but it's even better than the new one). Much better than those two... ES explorer is the worst bloated piece of crap there is.

I agree with you on ES , and tried out the new root browser which leaves a really good first impression! Didn't know of this app so far, so thanks for pointing it out!
But I still can't do it... I'll attach a short screen capture of what is happening for me

(Since the upload on XDA didn't work for me)

Just checking, is your Axon 7 a Chinese version- the A2017?
I have had trouble downloading large data files for games on this from playstore too... It might have something to do with the fact that google had to be installed from other places and google has a security issue with our devices...
After a few updates, currently on B08, it works. Can download apps that failed prior to this update...
