[Q] "Package file is invalid." When installing from Play Market. - TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have already tried reflashing gapps as well recovering to a point when the market is working. I have also tried wiping all of my caches. This has now happened to me 3 times. Each time I have been able to resolve it by doing a system the problem by doing a factory reset from TWRP. It should also be noted that when I try to install apps from my SD card, it also says install failed, but when I am not getting the "Package file is invalid" from the market the apps install fine from the SD card. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

What Rom are you using?

AOKP Remix. I just bought my TP used and the previous owner put that ROM one (which I like by the way). This is also the only issue that I'm having.

Have you tried wiping cache and davlik cache followed by fix permissions . That sorts out most problems.

I have done all of the "basic" stuff. I am quite a noob so any other ideas. Would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Have a read of this thread it should answer your questions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1924876

Thank you for that post :good:. I luckily stumbled on it right after posting. I flashed the update and it is now running perfectly. I highly suggest checking out this ROM, the whole interface is really wonderful!

[Q] Having an issue with Apps not installing to phone

I'm having an issue installing apps to my nexus one. I can download them from the market but when they try to install it just says Installing... and stays there.
This started happening after I installed cyanogen 6.1 so I wiped and installed rodriguezstyles mod to see if cyanogen was the issue but now rodriguezstyles mod is also causing this.
Makes me come to the conclusion that the mod isn't the issue. Could anyone assist me with this please?

I'm having the very same issue. I reverted back to stock 2.2 but everything still hangs on install.
Has reverting to stock solved the problem for you? Have you found any other solutions? Or an Idea on what it could be.
I've seen a number of solutions, so I'll give you the ones that seem to work best:
1 - Try signing into Google Talk
or
2 - Try unmounting SD card, before installing (if updating, make sure app is installed on phone).
or
3 - Try deleting .android_secure folder from SD card, and rebooting...

I tried flashing back to stock image but that didn't work for me. After that I tried what I should have done the first time which was restore an old backup from cm6.0. That did the trick for me, no problems since.

Download Unsuccessful

Sorry for posting this here... I have been a long time reader but this is the first time I've not been able to find an answer.
I am trying to download the new bionic update files to my phone to perform the updates... i have performed all the steps to return to stock... and now i cant download. I get a message that download was unsuccessful. Any ideas why? My sd card is mounted and i can view all files in root explorer.

Are you not able to download anything or is it just those files?

Edit: Sorry I misread your post.
Try a different browser. Sometimes the stock browser acts weird.
I've had good success with opera mobile.

Im not able to download anything regardless what program I'm using. Tried downloading directly from the browser and the xda premium app. It looks like it is working, says download starting, then i get a download failed notification. I've factory reset, ive cleared cache, ive even changed sd cards. Nothing...

Have you tried wifi or no wifi or both?
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
I've tried both. I was able to fix the issue this evening by completely formatting my external sd card via mass storage. I tried to download first with a quick format, and only worked when doing a full format. There has got to be another way. Now, if I can just figure out how to get to. 893 (forever root and fast boot, yada, yada, and I still get errors) and also figure out why after installing DT's current rom, the my apps page in the market app, does not allow me to see my apps, just a black screen.
Thanks for the suggestion!

Galaxy tab 8.9 LTE force closes

I have been getting a lot of force closes on my AT&T LTE tab over the last couple of weeks. Mainly gmail, Android browser and the google services framework.
Is anyone else seeing this same issue?
I rooted the tab back in December, but haven't had any issues outside this recent spat of fcs.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I957 using XDA App
I havent seen this.
Did you install CWM? if so you can try fixing permissions.
I get the same issue. orlando where do you change the permissions at in the file system?
You can fix permissions with CWM recovery.
Are you guys using the regular root kernel, or the OC kernel?
This stumps me, because I cant figure out why it would work fine for a month and then start to have FCs.
If you have CWM try clearing your cache and dalvik.
Since the tablet is so similar to the skyrocket, I would suggest reading this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1386234
*dont do what the OP says though, just read it for info*
This also may be of help, but it would have to be modified. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487706
I don't have a clear answer at this time.

I am running the normal root kernel, and no cwm installed.
I will read those threads, try the cwm permissions fix, and report back.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I957 using XDA App
My force closes only happened after installing the OC with the LIB's pushed. I did the permissions fix and cleared the cache and dalvik. I'll let you know how it goes.
Hmmm. Started getting FC on YouTube now. Also am on stock. Not sure what happened but has been like this since yesterday. Not getting any other FC's though.
Sent from my GT-P7300 using xda premium
this is weird indeed.
The YouTube issue is widespread across tabs.
Yup I'm experiencing the same issues with Youtube. I didn't pay attention to Youtube because I don't watch videos via Youtube on my tab that often.
Looks like YouTube issue was fixed last night for tablets. This might not resolve OP but thought might be linked hence brought it up.

I have been talking to thederekjay, and he has written a tool for a more complete wipe than CWM can provide.
read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487706
I checked out the script and the partitions are the same.
I am thinking that maybe running this after flashing clockworkmod and the custom kernel would aleviate FC's if multiple people are having them.
I dont know though, and the tool needs to be tested. I will let you know what he says.
EDIT: He said this should work. I sent him the output from my adb shell mount with partition layout.
I used the script. it ran fine.
really scary when i flashed the stock rom through odin and it froze at the ATT logo. wouldnt boot past.
i booted into 3e recovery and wiped data factory reset and it worked fine after that. feels slightly faster but that just might be a placebo effect.

yea its fixed.
my only suggestion to the other people seeing force closes is to maybe flash stock, and root without using a custom kernel....
OP, are you still seeing FCs?
OP...has your problem been resolved?
Since fixing the permissions I have had any force closes

I am getting a massive amount of force closes on my i957. Stock kernel with cwm and root only. Fixing permissions in cwm does nothing and neither does rom manager. Incredibly annoying.

[Q] Problem with Google Music Play

Hey all,
First post so hope I'm doing this right.
I'm running ICS Infinitum Rom with Semaphore Kernel 1.1.1 on my GT i9000 and i've been trying to use the latest version of Google Play Music.
It can play files from my internal SD fine, but i'm having trouble getting it to play files from the emmc/audio folder. It locates all the music there but i get an error reading "Couldn't play the track you requested".
I've tried force closing and clearing data, this does not work. So i re-flashed rom and kernel. This worked. Until i flashed the Beats audio by dre.zip.
Same thing happens. So after reflashing Rom again it works for maybe two days, then i get the same error as before.
So i know somehow this works. But not sure why it changed all of a sudden?
I'm wondering if it has anything to do with format of SD?
Any help, greatly appreciated.
That sounds to me as though you have a corrupt file or a bad external sd in which case try to format it.. or you might need to clear the cache in CWM unless of course you already have done so then im out of options. seems strange that it works for some time though.
And reflashing seems a bit excessive to keep doing, you could try a different rom and see...
Yeh I tried to format but that didn't work. And a cache clear from recovery but no luck. Which rom would you recommend to try?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA
That I can't really advise you on as I'm using the same ROM as you, just an older version. But try any really, just read up on some bugs they might be having. I'm going to look for a new one now to try anyway so..
I just reflashed the same from/kernel again. Then before using titanium backup to restore apps I tried Google music. It worked. So then I restored all other apps/data then rebooted. After reboot music didn't work. So it must be something from my backup affecting this program. Is trial and error the only way to figure this out?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA
Okay, so I've changed Rom. Gone back to aokp build 36. Google music works fine now. Although I've noticed that ES Explorer is reading my sd card and emmc as though they've swapped?

Download the 2 attachments.
Flash the fix 1 in recovery and reboot into the Rom. Come back to recovery and flash fix 2. The emmc and the sd won't be swapped now.

Update: So after still having various problems with Google music, I tried Apollo which worked well (although I had a horrid battery drain when using) now I'm on SlimIcs using the stock music app. It hasn't missed a beat and reads my SD card well.

Reboots and FCs with any rom

Hey guys, I've been having those issues since flashing trickdroid mods. Before that i was using cm 10.1 and everything was fine. Later on i tryed PA, PAC, ARHD and a newer CM Version and i still have reboots while accessing the play store installing an app or just turning my phone to landscape mode. Also there are many fcs and heating issues now and then. I did so many full wipes and tried not restoring anything via titanium and still my phone won't be stable at all.
Anyone know what to do? Heeeeelp
Sent from my One using xda app-developers app
It's a problem about some apps.
I'm running trickdroid without any prob.
Haven't had issues for a while but then, again reboots!
Installed Unified Remote via play store (dont think it matters which app I want to install at all), after download completed and install progress began, reboot. Just bootet, received notification from xda app, tapped notification and again reboot.
It's really annoying. Any idea? Maybe switching back to stock or wiping my virtual SD card next time i flash? What might cause this problem and what might help me solve this?
Please!
Sent from my One using xda app-developers app
Okay maybe someone knows a solution if i tell you that the error i get is
"error getting pid for '0'"
Just checked my logcat. Is it supposed to be full off errors or is it just me?
