Hi, I tried opening a dropbox link of my apk. package (BT ver 2.0) on a different device (other than my own) in order to test it- but it came up with a "parse packaging" error- how do I attempt to solve this? I already went to menu> settings> applications> and ticked "unknown sources" to allow third party downloads. Any other solutions recommended? Thanks, Tish.

Same .apk as used on your device?

Hi Tish, I've had the exact same problem. No solution, but my theory is that is has to do with the version of Android you are running. Try emailing the apk file to yourself, and installing it by clicking on the attachment. That might work better. Mark

Sorry I would have replied sooner but was struck down with illness! =( App development was put on hold! @Fred, yes it was the same .apk used on my device. @GoNorthWest, I tried emailing the actual apk file to another phone but the same parse error appeared.. I'll keep trying for a solution/more devices! Let you know what happens! Thanks, Tish.

If the .apk opened on your device I would think it should work on another device. Have you exported more than one copy of the .apk?

Hey @Fred, I tried exporting the APK on a few other devices, and it worked- I don't think I checked the version on the first device before hand- it was android 2.1!! So thank you!! *stupid error on my part!* Also, every time the apk is opened up, it opens the old version until the device asks to refresh. How do I change this so that the new one, including the new logo is opened instead? Am I right in thinking I have to re-export the apk?

Re-exporting alone won't do it. You must update the Config file first then export.

Hi @yp2201, The problem you're having is that the configuration file for your app is out of sync between the buzztouch server, which has the most recent copy, and your local development environment, which has a copy of the config file that existed when you downloaded your source package. To fix this, need to do this: 1. Go into the control panel for your app, and click on "Show App's Configuration Data" 2. Copy the configuration data 3. On your development environment, find the BT_Config.txt file. For Android, it's in the 'assets' folder of your download package 4. Paste the server configuration data into your BT_Config.txt file and save. You are now in sync! 5. Build a new apk and install. It's probably best to delete the old one before you install the new one. After you do this, run the app, and it should work as designed, without the refresh prompt! Mark

Thanks guys, you have both been so helpful! I'll get on updating the config.txt file and export the apk again! Tish
