Can't install apk files

I have downloaded a couple of apk files onto my PC, connected the Zeki to the PC and transferred the files to the tablet. Using Astro, I open the files from the icon located in the documents subfolder of the tablet and the install process initiates. However, it errors and I get the message "Application not installed". Am I missing a step in order to be able to install an apk from the tablet?

What are the chances of getting a 4.1 update for the Zeki?

Is there a way to change the home directory to \ for the root of the SD card? I could not find a setting under Storage.

How do you change the home directory to root? I don't see an option under Settings --> Storage to change the home directory to /

problem with SuperSu on Zeki

I installed SuperSu from the Google Play Store (after installing GAPPS) on my ZekiTB782B 7" tablet running Adroid 4.0.3 with the intention of temporarily disabling superuser and running TWC TV. SuperSu is not responding now. Should I close it? Can I safely uninstall it? Any help would be appreciated.

problem with Google play app on 10 inch zeki

HTH, many thanks for your very well considered guide to installing the Google play app. I followed your instructions to the letter and the apps were there and so I went shopping. Error 3 times then my email was banned by Google. Now the update.zip file came from this thread on this site - "Flash the Android Market Voice search to Zeki TB1082B & TB782B and no need root" and the download was at the bottom. My gut feeling is that this download [April 2012] is no good so could you send me your update.zip for me to try from a factory reset on my machine, the Zeki TB1082B which is the 10 inch screen. Like you, I am a complete noob at tablets but I am an expert in my own field of PC Flight Simulation. After 5 days of this, the sledge hammer is at hand!! Thanks to you and everyone else here for your help with the Zeki. Charlie.

Factory reset left the update.zip loaded and no matter what I do, the market app does not change to play, and there is no prompt to enter my gmail details or account info so I get an error message when I try to download a game. I know that if I do this 3 times, my email will get locked out. Will try a factory reset again, but I am a little stumped - so close yet so far!

Reset, went to market, looked but did not download, went back to apps, waited 10 mins and the app changed from market to store. Done - thanks to you all here, I will not be too impatient again! Charlie.

I got the download from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1621831 The Update.zip is at the bottom of the first article. I suggest that you use the install advice by Quinny899 or FiOS Dan on page 3 of this thread. Quinny899 has the g apps solution on page 2 of this thread, 4th reply on that page. Any help? Charlie.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TaekwonBo:
I got the Gmail app to work on my zeki w/o flashing. The app seems to be working fine. I even rebooted the Zeki and its still working. After downloading the Gmail app from 1mobilemarket I would get an error message that gmail stopped working. I noticed a sync button would appear but then the error message would gray it out. So I timed it so that when the app opens I can hit the sync button before the app would force close and since doing that, the gmail app is working and I was even able to add more gmail accounts.

I have also had the following experiences weeks later

1. Gmail app still working and syncing fine with no issues.

2. Google+ would sign in but not allow circle updates and said to retry connection

3. Google Calendar would work but not allow syncing in setting>apps and sometimes would get error message to enable google play services

4. Youtube would work but not allow sign-in saying I also need google play services even though it was already installed (side-loading).

I side-loaded the most recent Google play services from XDA site but errors still appeared. I also side-loaded Google play store from XDA, I can now see my Zeki on the google play website but cannot install via website due to error message & force close on tablet but whats happening now is not what I expected.

Google Play store does not works and forces close (expected), however with having Google play installed this is what has changed

5.Google+ has no connection retry message, circles are updating and even allows video hangouts

6.Google Calendar allows syncing and no google play services update message

7.Youtube allows sign-in and I no longer get google play services update message.

So far Im pleased to have google applications working without needing to flash. If you know how or what apk to sideload so the google play store stops forcing close would be a nice bonus but if not no biggie as The apps are still working just fine without the play store.

Any input or questions would be appreciated.

[Xoom General] fastfed:
Just got the jelly bean update and looked online for a 11.1 flash apk,since it doesn't show up in the play store anymore...whatever

I installed it, and tried my many popular and favorite sites that use flash, tried with the stock browser and dolphin , all the sites say to please install flash player..

I know flash won't be supported in jb, but no one said not working .. trust me I see no major differences from ics to jb ,EXCEPT flash not working.

I'm doing something wrong, right ?

I mean who would accept this
[Xoom General] BasPilot:
I am pretty sure that it won't work simply because they don't want it to. In the case of a lot of ICS stuff I have played with some are still supported and actively being developed, but they plain don't work for JB. Most go up well... But some won't.
[Xoom General] fastfed:
Then why would anyone want jellybean ?? I played with it on the nexus 7 and now the Xoom, ICS was a huge improvement no doubt, but not jelly bean not even close.

So now I can't use flash , can't use amazon prime and tons of other sites .. really sad ,

Pathetic and a major mistake IMO

Just hope eos stays with keeping their ICS ROM up to date because it looks like I'm going to that
[Xoom General] z1gackly:
Sideloaded Flash works fine for me on all instances of JB (stock, EOS, CM10 experimental) for the following browsers:

Stock, Dolphin for Pad, Skyfire, Boat Browser.

Does not work with Dolphin HD any more since 8.6.0.
[Xoom General] treyatl2006:
Flash works for me... You must be doing something wrong. Did you restart the browser after install or restart the xoom?

To all Brighthouse Network subscribers, a work around has been found to get the BHN app to work on our rooted Transformers. (* This may also work for other tablets and other cable providers apps.*) For anybody who's wondering what I'm talking about, Brighthouse Networks blocked access to their Live TV streaming app for rooted users, even if you're signed in and on your home network. Well the people who are TWC subscribers are seeing the same thing with their Live TV streaming app on rooted devices, but were able to find a fix that works for our BHN app also. Follow the link, follow the step by step instructions and give the guys thanks if it works for you. I'm posting this because I see there were a lot of Brighthouse users who were leaving comments in the Play Store, that this app wasn't working on their Transformers. I'm running EOS JellyBean build #55 and can confirm that its working http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=29472657&postcount=376 and running great.

P.S...You will also have to disable USB Debugging before you can start watching your shows, but you will be prompted on when to do it.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] gburlyman:
Revised:

Download file explorer from Play-store, go into settings, select show hidden files,go back

scroll down to bottom of main menu uncovering root options, select root settings,

check root explorer first option. Give it a second for warning to pop up, then select root up and then

mount file system.

Go to system apps, then long press superuser.apk change to su.apk save or hit back arrow it will ask

you to save. Get out of app folder, back to system folder at the bottom is the build.prop long press the file, up at the top

hit open as, select text option, open with ES note editor, go down to ro.build.tags="buildtype" delete everything after

= leave it blank, exit/save , turn off usb debugging in settings developer option ,REBOOT , then reload app. I am using EOS JZO54K Nightly 81 with stock kernel 2.6.39.4-Eos3

this by far streams the broadcasts the best, I have tried many kernel and roms and by far this works the best for me. TF101B90 16G.

Don't forget to hit thanks if this helped.

OLD:

Renamed superuser.apk to su.apk.

Uninstalled the twc app.

Changed the build.prop test-keys setting to blank.

Turn off debugging in settings > developer options.

Reboot.

Reinstalled the twc app.

[Motorola Atrix 2] jboxer:
Do I need to remove root or will the OTA still install with root on the phone? I know that I need to remove the clockworkmod bootstrapper and restore the system files it backed up (already done). All my other system files should be stock. I did not freeze any apps and I only removed bloatware that could be user removed by settings>applications on the device. I think I am okay to leave root installed. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:
Yes, to my understanding, leaving root will not prevent you from installing the OTA package. However, your root will obviously be lost once installed.
[Motorola Atrix 2] jboxer:
Superuser now has OTA survival built in. Don't know if it works on the Atrix 2 but we will find out soon I hope.
[Motorola Atrix 2] Fall of Enosis:

[Motorola Atrix 2] moofree:
You could give OTA Rootkeeper a try as well. Worked for me coming from gingerbread to the leaked ics build.
[Motorola Atrix 2] alteredlikeness:
Yea.. I thought it should.. It worked fine on my friend's razr. But not when I did the leak.. but I may have forgotten to hide root or temp un-root or whatever and it didn't stick - I think.. I swear it said root backed-up though..

Good to know it works when done properly! Edit: I'm trying to thanks you but I'm at eight on the comp, and says thanks denied on the app :p.. i'll get you later.. edit again: success!
[Motorola Atrix 2] moofree:
For what it's worth I didn't hide or temp unroot, just backed up root, installed ics, then restored root.

I had also hidden a couple other su-backups around the filesystem (similar to how ota rootkeeper works) in case the update specifically targeted where ota rootkeeper keeps its backup, but I didn't need to use them.

Well at least if it doesn't work, there are still other options to root.
[Motorola Atrix 2] rdavisct:
I wouldnt worry.not much to worry about as we have a way to root ics after upgrading. The whole root keeper and any other root keeping method is only beneficial to those ics roms on phones that dont have an after upgrade root method.
