I have tried to install these apk files from my sd card and the apkinstaller says there is a parse error. The exact message is There is a problem parsing the package. thanks

Just got the Droid, downloaded a couple themes (as well as the app necessary to run certain themes). Ex: dxtop and dxtop theme. I clicked ‘open’ on the theme, but cannot find it anywhere. It says that installed just fine, but I can’t get it to show up as my ‘theme.’ Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I think there is a step missing. After “3. Take the APK file you downloaded and copy it to anywhere on the SD Card drive.”, you need to unmount the SD card by reversing #2; that is “Swipe down the notification bar at the top screen and unmount the device by using “Turn off USB storage.” APKInstaller will not work on a mounted SD ard.

I think this is it – good luck

Didn’t work for us. Get an error when trying to launch the ApkInstaller app.
