Prerequisites

Describe the bug

To Reproduce

Screenshots and Logs

Please complete the following information:

  • Device: pixel 8
  • OS: GrapheneOS & Stock Android (tested on both)
  • Obtainium Version: all releases

Additional context

The apk cannot be installed since the last update from android, it is an android bug but it probably wont be fixed by them till february. I think it s best if u find a way to work around this bug because android users on latest release cannot install the apk anymore.

Could you provide more details? I'm on the latest Graphene OS release and have had no issues installing Obtainium or apps from Obtainium.

I have reported this to GOS devs also, and they have confirmed the issue , it is also on stock os.QPR1 issue they sayd. I am not sure if only the pixel 8 series are affected. If obtainium is already installed everything works fine, the issue is only if u dont have obtainium and u download the apk and try to install it. It wont install. Are u on the 701 release for GOS?

I got a message from GOS that they are going to fix the issue before google does, so the fix will be added in the next update. If u are on the latest GOS (701) the apk cannot install, i dont think u are on the latest release since it is confirmed that it s not device specific. StockOS will not fix it till february i think.

Yes I'm on the 701 release. I have not tried reinstalling obtainium though, but updating it and installing other apps through it does still work.

Do you have any links/other info on this?

Well that sucks. I have nowhere near the Android knowledge needed to understand where the error comes from.

GOS dev:

it's fixed by the latest release that's coming out soon, please be patient
if you were on stock OS, you'd be waiting for January or February

These devs are incredible.

GOS will fix it probably within a day or 2, but stockOS users will have to wait till january, probably february. Hope someone can help you to find a way to work around this bug.

FYI, I had the same issue on Pixel 7a with GrapheneOS.

I just ran the latest update and the install worked.

@ImranR98 Can you please comment on

  • difference between app-release.apk and the different architecture versions? Am I correct to assume that app-release.apk contains all of the architecture versions and installs the fitting one?
  • I am not quite sure what release GOS release you are referring to with 701?! Please enlighten me.

@mollyuser Can you add the link to the GOS issue?

GOS issue is already solved, the devs of GOS released a quick update solving this issue. When we talk about 701 release thats the lasy 3 numbers of the release, so it would be 2023120701. The quick 800 update solves the apk install issue. GOS devs are amazing fixing this so quick for their users.
