It would be helpful if you could tell us:
1) Which ROM you used to get to 2.2
2) What happens when you try to install an app? Step by step, the actions you take and the result
3) Any error messages, codes, or other details that might help
I also could not install apps
I had the same problem. Here are the details:
1. ROM n1-Sh0t with kernal and new keyboard
2. Applications that would not install:
a) Nitrodesk Touchdown
b) MyTracks
I cannot give you much detail. I tried to install from copies on my sd card and just got a message that the app would not install. I also downloaded from the web using market and got the same message. The apps would download but would not install.

I was flash yesterday with this rom

I have the same problem, I can't install any apps. Not from the market and not apk-files from a file browser. It just keep saying 'Installing...'
I was on [email protected] MCR Mod Rom V1.7 and everything worked fine.
Then I tried out Kang-o-rama Froyo and that's when the problem started. I did a complete wipe before installing. I did a recovery, but when I was back on my nandroid recovery I could still not install any apps.
Went back to a stock 2.1 I had on my memory card and then I could install apps. But when going to 2.2 again I still can't install any apps.
I was install RoDrIgUeZsTyLe_FroYo_MCR_R16_MOD_V1-7__FIX rom
also try "n1-sh0t" rom
and then I try to install another app...but I cannot complete install at all
then I click “Dev Tools" (in laucher) \ Development setting
I got this message =
The application Dev Tools (process com.android development)
has stopped unexpedly.Please try again.
what's wrong with this...
can any one help me up..thank you
(sorry about my poor english)
then I go back to 2.1 rom,it run very well
So I deleted the '.android_secure' folder on my sdcard and did a recovery, now I can install apps again.

External means that you're installing your apps on the sdcard. (They are installed in the '.android_secure' folder) If any widgets or apps that need root would be installed on the sdcard you should move them to the phone. You can do that by go in to 'settings' >> 'applications' >> 'manage aplications' and find that app, press it, and in its settings you can move it.
Anyways to your problem: The reason why you can't see some apps are because you're running LauncherPro as your home app. You can just kill it and press home so it will re-launch and then you should see your apps again. You might have to do that from time to time after you have rebooted your phone.

Help getting an apparently to install after modding

OK so I've modded the facebook app from the market. Im sure people have seen it in the themes and apps forum. I can get it to flash and can push the file from adb. I'm trying to get it to install like a third party app. Where u can put it on SD card and install using a file explorer like astro...etc. it will start to install but when it gets to the end it says install failed.
Any suggestions would be helpful...

[Q] Can't install secure settings helper

I'm trying to install helper (busy box already installed) however, every time I try to install it, it reboots my phone. Pushing the apk into system\app also reboots the phone. I can push other apk's and remove apk's from system\app just not the helper apk. When I try to flash the securesettingshelper.zip in CWM it says "installation aborted"
I've tried a number of things to get this working including flashing the bulletproof-1.8 kernel. I've also tried doing the fix here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230341
Does anyone have the helper installed on their device? If so, could you link or guide me through the process?
Thanks
EDIT: solved! not sure what the issue was still, but I just did a full wipe and reinstalled Android Revolution HD 8.0. Perhaps it's because I tried using Rom Cleaner 3.5 for the HTC One X

I got it to work. I just used the normal install from the app itself. nothing special, no apk or cwm zip file. Make sure your root is ok?

yea installing from the app is the first thing I tried. I know my root is good since su is installed and all other apps work fine.
i got the same "installation aborted" when flashing via cmw, but did manual copy paste and change name
(Manually copy to /system/app/SecureSettingsHelper.apk ) and then restart my n7105. now helper is working. will try if pattern unlock is working.
what other people do after installing helper?

i don't have file file manager

my phone : lg p970
android: 2.2.2
Play game Google did not work for me .. it write to me and I have no internet connection through the browser
I'm trying to break into the phone but I can not as long as I put a memory card and I can not find it without a file manager, I tried to send Bblotos but I can not find the file, what can you do?
I think i understood your question, just Use adb to install a file manager. Download The OI File Manager APK Directly Here:
http://openintents.org/en/filemanager
Just use this simple tut to Set up adb and install The apk.

You can even use Polaris office application to access files on your sd card
As @sarry86 said, Polaris office has a file manager.

I do root your phone, the superuser installed on your phone.
And also installed through the app recovery rom maneger but old version maybe 3 I do not remember, I went to the menu of the recovery and did wipe everything and then I install the new version and wrote me
e / can not mount / sdcard
Then I could not install the version and did rebot phone I had version 2.2.2 in which
And the superuser is still installed on the phone ..
Currently do not have a file manager I can manually install software via the sd card if I'm going to market it wrote me the following message:
sorry there's not enough space to install this item
I also tried to go through Menu> settings> applications> manage apps to transfer software to sd card but do not have the option of that one.
What can I do?

This happened to me once. I mean the mounting and "not enough space" problem on 2.2.2.
But then I bought new and bigger sd card which (i don´t know why) recovery could mount. Then I was able to flash a custom rom and when I rebooted the phone, "not enough space" problem was gone. I was able to install apps from google play again.
Maybe you should buy a new sd card card or at least format current one, that helped me

[Q] Help with root problem (apps that use sd card broken)

I rooted with kingo and installed Urdriod version 2 via safestrap version 3.75. Then installed Titanium backup pro. Problem is Titanium doesn't work anymore. All the options are not there. It is saying current backup location is inaccessible.
I then noticed that many of my applications that work in conjunction with the sd card do not work. Youtube is broken on 4G. Evernote is broken. Many of my games are broke as well.
I then did a clean install of another Rom Dynamic Kat. It didn't fix anything.
Any suggestions?
Install xposed framework and this module.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/kitkat-sd-card-access-t2790992

Could not extract Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip

You shouldn't need the zip did you try installing the apk?
It looks like its installed with the rom but not active. I cannot activate it and i cant seem to get the module to work either. I tried the apk but it just says that i already have it and it wont install.
Phone is alot less useful if it cant interact with the sd card. Is there another way to get this going or to get the phone to read the sd?
Is superuser installed and working?
yes it is. I don't believe it's that.

What error message are you getting when you try to install the framework from the xposed installer app? You might also try uninstalling the xposed installer app then installing the version from the download link
Here is exactly what the message says:
SDcard:/storage/emulated/0/android/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/files
Copying Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip
Could not extract Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip
I know the copy I have isn't working but if I erase it I might never even get a copy on. But the copy I have won't even install or update.

Looks like this came up in the xposed forum here
Sounds like the xposed updater app extracts a backup to the external sd card during installation...which you can't access, hence the error. The consensus seems to be to install this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount&hl=en to fix the folder permissions then xposed should install properly.
Well I think installing FolderMount did the trick. after i put it on the phone it detected a script error and asked if i wanted to fix it.i agreed and it rebooted and that did it! Thanks everyone!!!!!
