I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 which is updated with Jelly Bean and rooted. I copy and paste my application into the system/app folder and try to install the app by tapping it from this folder, but I get "PACKAGE PARSING ERROR".

Thanks in advance.

    `pest`? you meant `paste` i assume. `Double-click`? Nevertheless, give some details about the `apk`(how and where was it created). – Rahul Mar 18 '13 at 06:29

It means there is some error in the apk created. Is this apk you wrote? If so,

  1. can you check the manifest if it follows the structure defined in guidelines
  2. can you try running it in Emulator or other phone and see if it reproduces just to make sure its not a problem with the current phone. More details on the error can help in identifying the issue.
  3. Did you rename your apk and installed with a previous name? Check this out: "Parse Error : There is a problem parsing the package" while installing Android application
