Changelog 1.4.8 Beta 2

Changelog 1.4.8 Beta 2

Changes from last beta are displayed in bold.

APKMirror updater now uses the official API.

Thanks to [MENTION=2373179]Archon810[/MENTION] for the official APKMirror API.

Updater is much more efficient. Uses 1 request for every 100 apps (instead of 1 for every app).

Option to exclude APKS for other architectures.

Option to exclude APKS based on min API level.

Uses version code to compare versions instead of version string.

Note: Next version will add signature verification so you won't get updates for apps with the same pname but different manufacturer.

Google Play updater support.

Uses play-store-api and code from YalpStore.

Uses Google Play with a default account so there is no need to have a Google account.

Checks for updates using your DeviceInfo.

Direct download of APKS from GooglePlay.

Improved version parsing.

Portuguese translation.

Reduced font size for version.

Limited Play updates to 1 thread to avoid 429 errors.

Download button is now Install button. It will automatically trigger app installation. Downloaded files are deleted on app startup.

New Apk is attached to this post.

The evozi button there, is now gone.

The files go to the default DownloadManager location (in modern Androids it's /data/data/com.android.providers.downloads/cache). These files should be indexed by the system and displayed in Downloads.

Yes, F-Droid files are signed with their own signatures so you can't update them from Play.

The Download button is now an install button. This downloads the apk to the default location and triggers the install. Downloaded files are deleted on app startup.

I also plan to add support for using your own google account to avoid possible problems with the default account.

I limited the number of threads to 1 for Play updates. Google servers get angry fast, and start returning 429s if you spam them.

[Android Apps and Games] Archon810:
How is it slower? It now does 1 API query per 100 apps, which returns within 3-5s, whereas before it would do 100 queries to the live site, 10 at a time, and would hammer the crap out of our servers.
[Android Apps and Games] yakov116:
Thanks for this amaizing app
[Android Apps and Games] Primokorn:
With the latest beta (better results than the previous release):

=> 222 apps

32s to check all the apps (APKMirror and Play Store)

number of threads: 5

filter settings: everything is excluded

The process is indeed faster now.

APKMirror (111 apps only) is almost instant. The big part is the check on the Play Store)

[MENTION=7676946]rumboalla[/MENTION] APKUpdater seems to analyze 222 apps on my device. However I only have 221 in Titanium Backup (Backup all user apps + system data) and I normally exclude system apps from the check.

I think the Play Store is still checking system apps since the process only takes into account my users apps (111) if I only enable 'Updates from APKMirror'.

222 is 111 apps x 2 sources.
[Android Apps and Games] dantexaiver:
How is this picking up updates not even found on the Playstore, such as system apps?
[Android Apps and Games] Primokorn:
Yes it's really faster now, thanks!

Could you add an option to avoid duplicated entries when the new version is not the same?

Example with Swiftkey:

• Play Store: update to v6.6.0.22

• APKMirror: update to v6.6.1.19

=> I don't need the information from the Play Store

EDIT [MENTION=7676946]rumboalla[/MENTION] please tell me when new strings will be available on Github.
[Android Apps and Games] rumboalla:
Changelog 1.5.0

APKMirror updater now uses the official API. The updater is now much faster and supports architecture and api level filtering.

Google Play updater added. The updater can find updates on Google Play and supports direct install of apps.

Search for apps on Google Play.

Many bug fixes and small enhancements.

Download: https://github.com/rumboalla/apkupdater/releases/download/1.5.0/app-release.apk

Also available on XDA-Labs.

Update merging is on my TODO, I'm just not sure yet how to go about it.

And the new code is always on GitHub (usually on the dev branch first).

Changelog 1.5.1

Changelog 1.5.1

Added Bloody Void theme.

Updated french translation. (Primokorn)

Slightly changed how the GooglePlay updater works. It will use less requests but the version string for the updates will be unknown. Should help with 429 errors.

Improved handling and display of errors.

Bugfixes and small improvements.

Download: https://github.com/rumboalla/apkupdater/releases/download/1.5.1/app-release.apk

New releases won't be available on XDA Labs until the bug that prevents apps built with Android Studio 3 from being uploaded, is fixed.

I've tried with YouTube and evozi and apkmirror didn't have the same version. Maybe it should compare the versions between them too?
[Android Apps and Games] tetsuo55:
[MENTION=7676946]rumboalla[/MENTION] with the latest version its still showing updates that require a higher min-sdk than i have.

I am on android 7.0 skd 24 and i see updates like:

Print spooler for sdk 25

Basic daydreams for sdk 26

See attached screenshot for some more examples.
[Android Apps and Games] yochananmarqos:
Notice on the APK Mirror page it says something like:

Min: Android 4.4 (Kitkat, API 19)

Changelog 1.5.2

Changelog 1.5.2

New icon. Thanks to DIBBLED.

Root install. Install apps using root so there's no need to interact with the Package Installer. This is the first step towards automated background installs of new updates.

Download: https://github.com/rumboalla/apkupdater/releases/download/1.5.2/app-release.apk

Yes, evozi versions will differ. I'll probably remove the evozi button since it's not very useful.

This is a server side issue in the APKMirror api. Artem told me they are working on it.

If you have logs, please let me know.

Changelog 1.5.3

Android TV Icon updated.

Root commands now use libsuperuser.

Root install is done in a background thread.

Updated French and Italian strings.

Download: https://github.com/rumboalla/apkupdater/releases/download/1.5.3/app-release.apk

HELP WANTED: DONATE GOOGLE ACCOUNTS

At the moment the app is using a single shared account to access Google Play. This causes issues like error 429 (Too many requests).

So if you have spare Google accounts that work and have logged at least once to the Play store, please let me know. Once I configure the accounts, the app will only use a GSFID and AUTH_TOKEN, this means the password for the account will remain secret.

As far as I know, there's no easy way to have several icons.

Icon has been updated.

As explained above this is because of the single shared account. Situation will improve once more accounts are added or support for using own accounts is implemented.

New version uses a library to execute root commands. This will hopefully make the install compatible with more devices.

This is already on my TODO https://github.com/rumboalla/apkupdater/issues/45

[MENTION=7676946]rumboalla[/MENTION], any chance to add official Xposed Repository?
[Android Apps and Games] Ibuprophen:
I'm only assuming the following answer...

... [MENTION=7676946]rumboalla[/MENTION], please correct me if I'm wrong.

I, personally, wouldn't think it would be a good idea to implement the XPosed Module Repositories because of the app's user's who either doesn't use XPosed or can't use XPosed for one reason or another.

I feel that implementing this could lead to a whole new "Pandora's Box"...

The only option that I could think of is, maybe, having some type of optional addon feature for those who do use XPosed. Just a thought...

But, I could be wrong too... Just thinking aloud... LMAO :)

[Android Apps and Games] Ibuprophen:
I don't believe that too many individuals realize that certain feature requests (even those that seem simple) may require allot of work for the Developer ([MENTION=7676946]rumboalla[/MENTION]).

Though I'm sure that the Dev welcomes them for ideas to help improve the User Experience.

I just wanted to point this out as an FYI for those who may not realize this... :)

[APP][2.3+][GPLv3] APKUpdater: Get updates for your apps without an app store!

Since V 1.4.8 Beta I'm getting force closes.

When I download the apkupdater-apk from apkmirror to my downloads folder without installing my file explorer crashes when trying to acces the download folder. I tried to get a logcat from that error but unfortunately there are no logs for that.

Then I installed the apk and started the apkupdater app. That led to a crash of the whole system. So I can't launch the app because always the systenm reboots I also can't deinstall the app because then the package manager crashes. Titanium Backup crashes as well. Is it maybe related to the root integration?

I have a Nexus 10 running LineageOS 13. System is rooted.

Logcat attachted.

Edit: turns out that it is an issue with my system or LOS13 itself because I don't have any problems with LOS14.1 or the stock ROM based on 5.1.1.
[Android Apps and Games] rumboalla:
Changelog 1.5.4

The install process is now much more robust. It will detect when the app is installed, if the download is cancelled, if the install is cancelled, etc.

Added more Play accounts. This should alleviate 429 errors.

Download: https://github.com/rumboalla/apkupdater/releases/download/1.5.4/app-release.apk

*EDIT* Download now has the correct file.

Thanks to the people that donated Google accounts! If you want to donate more accounts, please let me know!

Unless the Xposed guys give me permission to hammer their servers with requests, I'm not implementing that.

I'll add that to my TODO.

Not planning to do that at the moment. You can ignore all the apps except the ones you want.

You are not the first one complaining about issues on old LinegeOS devices. Not sure what's going on there, I only have a LOS14.1 device to test.

[Android Apps and Games] Primokorn:
Maybe another thing for you TODO :)

Please remove overlays (from Substratum themes, not themes themselves) from the list of installed apps.

If it could help there's an option in my custom ROM under Settings > Apps > 3dots menu. You probably need full OMS7 support (LOS doesn't support OMS7).

[Android Apps and Games] Bludwurst:
Yet another entry in the suggestions box! I think the "Bloody Void" theme could do with some improvements.

For one, the contrast of the text against the black background could be better. The red should be brighter. This is specially true for the darker red you used for some bits of text.

At least, I find it somewhat uncomfortable to use as it is.

And the FAB should have the colors inverted (red button and black icon vs. the current black button and red icon) so it doesn't melt into the background. Just my two cents.

And an alternative that instead of the black and red it's black and white would be nice.

Thank you for everything anyhow! I really like what you've done with this :svetius:
[Android Apps and Games] ImAnnoying:
Full disclosure: I'm new at this, so sorry if I don't know what I'm talking about or made stupid mistakes...

What I did(log is fresh.txt):

Fresh install of cm 12.1 + latest pico gapps...

Download some random picture from google(more on that in a bit)

Open the download folder in CM File Manager - everything is OK

Download apkupdater

File manager crashes whenever I try to access download folder(with the apk in it)...

Install the apk from download notification

Enable unknown sources because I forgot

Download app again because CM FM crashes...

Install

Things crash...

Upon opening the app system crashes...

After it's finished booting, Trebuchet crashes constantly

Uninstall app through adb - everything is OK again...

But wait! There's more...

I wanted to see whether other file managers would crash when opening Downloads, so I installed Astro, Cabinet and Solid Explorer: Astro didn't seem to care, while Cabinet and SE crashed most of the time but managed to open the folder a few times without crashing... Log is fmcrash.txt

A few months ago, the app ran just fine, and this is the first time I've seen an .apk crashing a file manager. Did I screw something up? :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] yochananmarqos:
In the log CM File Manager crashed before APK Updater was downloaded. All the errors and app crashes point to file system corruption. The APK was corrupted, so Package Manager could not verify it and it crashed.

If you're still having issues, I would download your ROM again and verify the MD5. I would wipe /system, /data, /dalvik & /cache then reflashing your ROM & GApps.

By the way, you never said anything about the random image you downloaded.
[Android Apps and Games] ImAnnoying:
The picture was to see whether it crashed when any file was downloaded or just the apkupdater apk. In retrospect, I should've tried downloading another apk instead of a picture to see if it's file type specific...

Anyway... Thanks for the advice, I'll try what you suggested

Changelog 1.5.5

Self update check. App will check last release on GitHub and display a notification if an update is found. Clicking the notification will trigger the installation. There's an option in settings to disable this.

Added new option to disable all animations and transitions.

New translation: Arabic.

Tweaked Bloody Void theme. Improved contrast and inverted floating button colors.

Bug fixes and misc improvements.

Download: https://github.com/rumboalla/apkupdater/releases/download/1.5.5/app-release.apk

This is now implemented.

You are not the only one with this problem. It looks like a a bug in old CM/LOS releases. My theory is that it tries to parse the contents of the apk then it fails because the app is built with Android Studio 3 and something is different. If you can please try this version (it's 1.5.0 but built with Android Studio 2): https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/download/com.apkupdater

Android O: App installs are now working. Android will ask you to enable the new install permission for the app.

App is built with Android Studio 2. This will make the app work again on old versions of LineageOS/CyanogenMod that can't properly parse Android Studio 3 apks.

Updated translations.

More bugfixes.

Apks are now deleted after install. I may add an option to not delete them in the future.

That's normal, the PreferenceFragment used for the settings does not look very good in Android versions below 5.

Reverted back to building with Android Studio 2, so it should be ok from now on.

When I manually search with APKUpdater it will reach 220/366 then stop with 6 errors.

When I try to "install" from googleplay I starts to download and then it says that installing was successful, but the app is NOT updated.

I do have root install selected in settings.

I love this app, but all the new updates still does not fix my issue. I have wiped the data from this app, then uninstalled, then reinstalled, still "install" does not work.
