Android "App Fail to Install"

Helllo everyone!

Recently, I have used Construct 2 to generate a HTML 5 document, and hope to turn it to Android app using Intel XDK. The APK file was successfully built using Intel XDK, but it failed to install on several different mobiles, including Samsung Galaxy Ace, Samsung Galaxy Note 2, Sony Xperia Z5.

The app was able to be previewed using the emulator in Intel XDK, but it comes out not being able to read by the mobile. I have already set the "minimum API" to 14 and "target API" to 14, but still can't solve the problem. The App ID is "mtr.acc.v001", and the version of the XDK is 3088. Anyone knows how to deal with the situation? Thankyou!

No, the mobile just keep on showing the screen "Intel App Peview".

Is the "signed" box checked in the Build settings? Can you run the app with the Debug tab?

The app can be previewed using my mobile phone and the emulator in XDK.

I have unchecked the 'Signed" box, everything goes on smoothly.

But the app just cannot install on those android devices.

You must CHECK the signed box to install it on a device. You should only uncheck that box if you wish to sign it yourself, which is only done in unusual cases.

You must check in Build Settings/Install Location/internalOnly
