Can't build valid apk with new Intel XDK 3088

[Olga_V_]

I've upgraded the Intel XDK to the new version 3088 and I can't get valid apk. When I build  signed project and I try to install the apk I get "App not installed" error, when I build not-signed project I get "Parse error There was a problem parsing the package" instead of istall. (I've tried to build new projects and old projects converted to CLI 5.4.1)

What can be the problem?

Olga -- only signed APKs can be installed on a device, even if you are only side-loading for testing.

What version of Android are you attempting to install onto? There is a signing issue in the build system that prevents good builds from installing on devices. See this post for details > https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/intel-xdk/topic/622990

I'm not positive that the above is the problem, but I have a suspicion that is the problem.

So what about all the builds that I did with previous version of the Intel XDK? I didn't use signed builds and I had no problems with the installations

Nexsus 5 with Android 6.0.1 and Samsung Galaxy 3 with Android 4.4.2

You may need to uninstall the old app on your device to install the new one. There is also a change in the way version codes are calculated for Crosswalk and Android builds when you go from CLI 4.1.2 to CLI 5.x.
