APK problem installation for crosswalk builds

[Sebastián_R_]

I have a serious problem with intel XDK croswalk builds, because in android phones the installation fails with no error, only say that the app is not istalled after finalling the process. 

I have to say I sent my eclipse generated key to html5tools@intel.com, but that key works perfectly before when I wasn't using Intel XDK and I was using eclipse for generate and sign my apks

I have the same problem, but only in Samsung S4 (Android 4.4.2). On Samsung Tab 10.1 (Android 4.0.4) there is no problem. 

In this same Samsung S4 I had installed the same APP some days ago (Crosswalk too), but with other version (of APP) to test. The difference between them, as I can remember, is only the plugin about Sqllitedatabase, that I am testing.

I have no clues about the problem.

Sebastian ~
Are you saying that you previously built and were able to install your app and run it? And then you sent us your personal keystore to import to your account and now you can not install a arm build? Can you provide a link to the apk?

Hamilton ~
If you remove the plugin, reupload/build does the apk install as it should? It could be a plugin conflict.

I just built and test a sql using this plugin and it installs/runs fine on an S4, 4.2.2.

I removed the plugin and rebuilded: the same issue. The device shows the screen about permissions and, after tap on INSTALL, it shows the message about not installation without reason (Samsung S4). On Samsung Tab 10.1 it installs normally (now, in this case, with an error  about no database).

I checked again and all stuff of icons and splash is inside the folder. I cant´t see nothing wrong.

Hey John,

Yes, the apk build and signed by Intel XDK eith the key I sent doesn't installs, and the apk only generated but sogned by my with jarsigner works.

Builded and signed by XDK: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B77tD8KyTiVecjc2Y1RYaW5zTTg/view?usp=sharing

Can you post your APK somewhere that I can download it? I have the exact same device/OS so I can see if it is an APK problem or a your device problem. :)

I installed the apk from the XDK on my S4 via ADB tools. It installed, launches and runs just fine. Can you confirm that you do not already have the same app already installed? And that you have increased the version number? You can not install the same version number or a lower version number, it must be greater.

John ~

Sure. Get the APK in this link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/z69ax4mg3yfxvij/AAC1xZCCg2oQnF-qAwN3oX0la?dl=0

[Sebastián_R_]

Yes, I can confirm i'm not had the same app installed. I tried in tio decives, one with Ice Cream and the other with JellyBean, none installs

Are you insuring that you are installing x86 APKs on x86 devices and ARM APKs on ARM devices?

[Sebastián_R_]

Yes, totally sure, because before I tried to install it manually, I distribute it through the play store

I saw your question to Sebastián and checked my Samsung S4. In my case, I realize that I had this APP 2 times installed. I think that one is the official version, installed from Google Play. The other some old test version. I don´t know when I installed this other version.

I removed the 2 versions of the same APP and now the new version is installed OK.

I don´t know how 2 versions were installed at the same time.

Have you ever been able to install an apk from the XDK on this device? Can you build one of the demo apps and try to install it?

If that fails, can you create a new account in the XDK, build a demo app and try to install that? If this works, then it will help narrow down the problem.
