When I try to download an .apk file from the browser, it tells me "no application can be found to open this file". This happened after I installed the new marketplace. did i do something wrong??

oh. ha, sorry. Im running CM 6.1. I use clockworkmod recovery. it was doing fine until i installed the new marketplace.
If you're downloading from a site, like getjar.com or something, make sure you have "Install from Unknown Sources" allowed. I use Astro file manager to install them afterwards. You might want to try that one.
I've tried a bunch, and found the one I chose seems to do so much
But no matter, if you haven't already go through your command prompt and type su to gibe super user access to do its thong

Quick question, did you install the .apk after you downloaded it?
No, it didn't let me. But I can still see and use the new marketplace. It's just when I try to install an .apk from the browser. It says the whole "no application can be found to open this file." But when i go through Astro, it lets me install the apps there. It's like the package installer isn't being recognized or something in the browser...
And now it tries to open the apk with Gameboid. :/

Turn "allow installation of non-market applications" on, then try it again. It's in your settings menu under application settings. Let me know how it goes
I tried it, still nothing. :/

Don't install things from the browser then. Its not the new market that's causing the problem. What browser are you using?
Dolphin HD. I've tried that one, opera, and some the stock one and still nothing. But ya, it'll still let me get them from Astro. Thanx though. =]]

Just download ES File explorer and install from there. Browser is definitely not the best route for installing .apk's.
Anyone else getting this? Tried to update several apps but got this error.
How about the problem parsing package error?
What causes these?
Thanks.
Sent from my LogicPD Zoom2 using Tapatalk
What apps were you trying to update? Parsing error means the apk isnt packaged correctly or signed I believe.
GMail update 2.3.2
is a perfect example. I tried copy/paste with Root Expl. I got the "application not installed." Any ideas?
You cant install system apps normally, you just have to move it over, set permissions, reboot and hope its installed.
Clairification please?

What's a system app vs. a 'regular' app? Does it make no difference that its a Froyo version of the app? Per Google website, GMail version 2.3.2 is designated as Froyo. With Root Explore I set permission; I just don't know if I'm doing it correctly. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks!
Ran into above problem while updating an app on market. I clearly have more than enough space with 126mb free in internal storage and 4.18gb free on sd card. App is 16mb. Googled several solutions but nothing works.
clearing cache/dalvik cache
dismounting sd card before applying update
in adb:
chown system.system /data/app
chmod 0771 /data/app
I'm running cm6.1.2 port for milestone by nadlabak, with memhack installed. Trying not to do an uninstall/install cause there's some data I want to keep. Please help!
Maybe you try to download an apk too big? Try with another app smaller..
If this is from the true market, I believe you can update the app using market.android.com and trying to see if their servers will have an easier time then what you have tried
Good Luck
PM me & let me know how it goes

Google maps is bigger and has updated fine. I doubt a lack of storage is the real issue here...

I tried the methods listed because android market failed to update the app. No problems downloading the app, but installation fails. It's not a corrupted apk either because I've tried downloading over wifi several times.
So I think I may have found the problem memhack looks like it is screwing everything up because you have 2.2 take a look here

Can you say what is the app? For any app I've the same problem (like quickpic)..
I picked up two HTC One devices today as soon as the Sprint Store opened. I have as of yet not be able to download any previously purchased paid applications.
This includes several rather expensive EA games, that just say "Not Compatible with your Device" which doesn't even allow me to download to my device. (Mass Effect Infiltrator and Need for Speed shift come to mind first)
All other paid apps seem to download, but fail to install. (such as Weatherbug Elite and Minecraft Pocket Edition) I've tried from phone, as well as the Google Play website on my PC.
I'm in the US, on Sprint. Tried both WIFI and 3g.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? If so, did you find a solution?
Thank you in advance.
For the ones that say not compatible: wait until compatibility is added. I've come across the same multiple times and some never gained compatibility with my device. That is on the app developer, not the app store
For the other issues, go to settings>apps>all
Delete cache and data for both Google play store and Google framework services and force stop both. That should fix

Thanks for the quick reply. I did both things you suggested. Once I cleared and force stopped, I had to restart the phone, as I kept getting the "No Connection" error on the Play Store, on both WiFi and Sprint.
Once I rebooted, I attempted to install another paid app, and it again failed. The error is "Couldn't Install on USB storage or SD card." (again I can install any other app that I didn't pay for)
If its important I did root, I'm running TWRP recovery and ViperRom 1.0.
Same problem on stock root Rom. My friend is unrooted and the same apps install fine

You could try installing esfile manager on your old phone that the apps work on and backing up the apps to the sd card then copy the backed up apk to the HTC one to install it might not work but I have done this many of times with my EVO 3d ans my touch pad

That's on deodexed roms only. It may be a permissions issue. The apks themselves install fine from your sdcard if you have them.

The current idea is this:
Downloading paid apps requires writing a temp file to mnt/.asec/
But the issue is, mnt is read only.
It should be fixed in no time. Vipers the man.

It's not always a temp file. In the case of Swiftkey the actual apk is in mnt/. Asec. I was able to pull it from my dna and install from my card.

try redownload the ROM, maybe the ROM package itself is corrupted from a bad download.
