So I'm still on stock HD and I've already rooted and installed gaps etc. But there are a couple of apks I would like to install that can't be obtained by the play store. I can download them but everytime I try to install them I am told the install is blocked because the apk wasn't obtained from the nook store. Anybody get around this yet?

You are trying to install with the Nook apps, like the browser and my files. Those are still blocked. You must install using a third party file manager like the one I put on the Universal Root. Or download one from Play Store.

I tried using the file manager included in your extras zip as well as astro but everytime I select an apk file it pops up saying it's blocked.

You may need to flash my unknown sources zip. That was in the gapps zip, but maybe you flashed it too early in the process. You need to have registered for that mod to work. Anyway do it again.

are you trying to get it from Play Store or installing APK from adobe?
i think he tried the .exe from flashplayer site
don't know which way you are trying to get it but on adobe you can go to the archives and scroll down to "Flash Player for Android 4.0 archives"
then just side-load the apk works on all my JB 4.1 devices
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html
Tried loading from play as have it installed on other devices....
Will give this a try.....thank you.

I've been trying to install Zynga poker from the playstore..
I'm unable to find it.
If i try opening it from google play link it says device is incompatible..if i use xposed hacks to override device check,it gives me an error "942"
However i can use it on my old lg P500 device,galaxy tab 3 ,micromax canvas 2 plus .
I dont seem to find a reason.
Apk's from elsewhere work,but i'm a bit reluctant since i have over 1 billion chips and dont wanna get ripped
Can someone check if they can install it ?
Here is the play link https://play.google.com/store/apps/...oogle&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=zynga+poker
Thanks in advance

Share the apk from any of the mentioned phones using es file explorer. Send it via Bluetooth and install it. Check if it works. Although it will not get updates but you will have the play store version.
use titanium backup to backup the game in one of your phones where the game is working and restore the game on your phone via titanium backup again

There are a lot of apps not compatible and unavailable through the playstore app.
If you mode the build.prop for n7100 it will allow you to download the app from the play store change ro.product.model=GT-N7000 to GT-N7100 and the same for ro.product.device after that save and exit then reboot the you will be able to download. I have tried and confirmed

Lol.
Its a kernel issue..infact it isnt an issue..its something that is stated by philz as a known matter and that is how stock kernel also behaves.
Only speedmod kernel doesnt have a similar problem.

these could be device as well as regional restrictions.. I cant find Google keyboard if I search directly on the PlayStore.

I just tried that, got the .apk from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2690997 it installs fine, but the app FC's all over the place and uninstalls itself after reboot. The thread says to move it to system/app or priv-app, but we can't do that because there is no root yet for NC2

I tried the same thing. I was quite disappointed when I got all the FCs.

I was thinking, its definitely going to be tough to get it into /system/app without mounting it RW (root necessary). This is just a thought, would an update.zip containing the apk be able to be flashed in the stock recovery?

Can you do that without being rooted??
*(And more importantly), what happens if that goes wrong?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app
I think stock recovery has an option to flash an "update.zip". What happens if it goes wrong? I have no idea. I've never had to install a system app without root, I'm just trying to think of something that might work. I mean root browsers and adb are ruled out. Other than flashing, I don't know of many other ways to get an app in there. >.<

Hello all. I am unlocked, rooted, and unencrypted. I updated to SuperSU 2.35 earlier this week, and all of my apps were able to download and install as usual except for Amazon. It says it isn't compatible with my device when I try to download it from the Play Store. Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this? I was able to install it prior to upgrading to SuperSU 2.35, and that is the only thing that has changed on my device so I think the problem was when I upgraded. Any help is greatly appreciated.
EDIT: Forgot to add, I have already tried wiping/resetting the device.
Try sideloading the app (look for the apk somewhere other than the play store).

It downloads fine on my phone. Is there anything that you changed such as in the build prop?
