Question by matthew_gigante · Oct 04, 2017 at 02:23 AM · androidapkkeystorecorrupt

Android apk "App not installed": The package appears to be corrupt.

I have tried using the automatic, forced internal, and external install locations, have tried different keystores, have my package name in the right format (com.matthew.qualitycontrol) and have tried the gradle, internal, and adt build systems. I'm at a loss for why these apks are coming out as corrupt when i try to install them on my device.

$$anonymous$$; one way that i had problem like t$$anonymous$$s was when i wanted to install an app with special setting w$$anonymous$$le there was already another one with different setting ( like "keystore") installed on the device;

so check it if there is not any t$$anonymous$$ng installed via app manager;

I'm not sure I understand your answer, are you telling me to make sure my keystore is not the same as keystores already on the device? If so, I named my keystore "qualitycontrolmatthewgigante2017" for one of my attempts, i doubt there is any app on my phone with this keystore.

Unfortunately not.

does the app install if you do a debug key , i didnt think the keystore had anything to do with the app installing, I always thought the keystore was just a way to verify that you are the developer for when you submit an updated APK or add API services such as Google Play to it?

Also, I think Cuttlas was just trying to say to be sure that on the device you are trying to load said APK, be sure that no other version of that APK was installed and remains still on the device. I have had failures to install APK becoz of that also. for the record, I've installed many half-built apps without any keystore (just the debug key that is default there already for you)
