[Q] help... - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

guys am z1 user.aftr my first update (android 4.2.2),im unable to instal external apk files,i even checked the external sources but when during installation when we open an apk file,the install button is not working only the back button is working,any help plzzzzz:angel:

are you sure you have checked unknown sources?
Also, where did thes apk's come from?

Ya frnd I checked it.. But no use... Just the install button in not working..
Sent from my C6902 using xda app-developers app

can you send a screen shot and attach one of the apks so we can try it. Only free apk's of course...

Maybe you're using wrong Apk installer, Download ES File Explorer for free from Play Store, go to the folder where is the Apk, install and try.

I guess this is the problem. I hope that you have installed screen filter apps like screen filter, filter your screen etc (yellow tint reducing apps). If you have, either disable them or uninstall them and the install button would work. Or if you don't have any apps of that sort, try a factory reset.

I will ask again, can you send a screen shot of it not working and attach an APK of one of the ones which don't work for you so we can replicate the problem and find a fix....
EDIT
That screen shot does not seem to have the install button greyed out

I think you will find they are paid for apps that you have got illegally. (Please correct me if I am wrong)
As such I will not help you (Unless you convince me you have paid for them, but I strongly suspect not)
Also, you need to remove those links, I did explicity say for you to share free apps only
And
REPORTED

so theres no solution for this? plzhelp if u can

There is no solution on this forum to use PIRATED apps, its theft.
This forum is for developers and by developers. By condoning STEALING apps you are STEALING from xda members.
You will find no help here

Discussing warez is against the forum rules as stated in rule#6:
6. Do not post warez.
If a piece of software requires you to pay to use it, then pay for it. We do not accept warez and nor do we permit any member to request, promote or describe ways in which warez, cracks, serial codes or other means of avoiding payment, can be obtained.

Number Selector (My First App) and a flashlite app and a couple others too now lol

Ok I changed this to have a few of my first apps in it including some I thought was not worth putting in at first like a flashlight app makes you screen bright white so that you can use your phone as a mini flash lite in dark rooms, and you double click teh screen to exit right the app cause it runs in fullscreen, right now now it doesn't change your backlight level, but it still helps. also there is a number selector, you can decide a minamum number and a max number and it will pick a random number in beetweens thse when you click the button on the window, and also a test to see how fast you can tap the screen lol
Even though I had absolutely no problems and dont think it is even possible for something like this to do any damage to a phone I am not responsible for anything I just made this app because I like xda and want to help as much as I can.
btw I really would appreciate feedback
I will try to post more pics later for the new programs I forgot to take them
OH and almost forgot they will all be in program files not the start menu

The easiest way I find is to uninstall then reinstall Market Enabler, remember to save ur settings next time so that u can always go back to them.
Photoshop apk file
Currently Photoshop is only available for the US market. However you could download the apk file fo here;

[REF] Motorola ATRIX System APPS & LIB Folders

All links pulled due to XDA Request after an XDA member complained I was only out for profits to a moderator on a few products I have. Due to the fact I link to a product or two and a few other things in many videos, I was asked to pull any content relating to this.
I will still be offering all this great material at my website. Just go to google and search for MobileTechVideos.

I dumped all the system apps into a package using ADB with the ATRIX I picked up today. I'm not sure what/if any apps are usable but I figured I'd offer them up to any developers or modders such as myself.

You're not going to be able to just install them, because they're system apps. Gotta use a file explorer like Root Explorer and move it to /system/apps, then do a reboot.

LOL. Not everyone here is a developer. You're posting here and you clearly aren't.
As for respecting others, perhaps you should follow your own advice, rather than stating that people here should feel some sort of embarrassment because they haven't provided you with the level of support that you clearly think you're entitled to.

It is Xperia XAlert. If you have already granted it device admin rights, there is nothing you can do. Try to uninstall it and see. Or Open it and see if you remember the password so that you can disable it.

i force restarted the ph. then downloaded a task manager and force closed x alert then i was able to access my settings from which i followed these steps
App is good for security but once you activate it and enable password for applications it gives you really bad annoying experience. To fix the issue, please do following:
If you have Screen lock = Pattern then you need to change it to PIN
Go to Settings => Security => Device Administrator and untick X - Alert for XPERIA
Now go to Settings => Apps => All = Select X - Alert for XPERIA
Click on Force Stop and do Clear Cache
