Question

My project has a problem of Silent Installation. my project need the permission "android.permission.INSTALL_PACKAGES",but the permission is system permission. How to use this permission？

error: java.lang.SecurityException: Neither user 10051 nor current process has android.permission.INSTALL_PACKAGES.

My AndroidManifest.xml has added uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INSTALL_PACKAGES"

Your app requests that permission, but Android does not grant that permission to 3rd party apps. See LogCat for permission related logs [Something related here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5803999/install-apps-silently-with-granted-install-packages-permission) — Skynet, May 04 '14 at 09:50

This permission is only given to system apps. In order to get this permission, your app:

1) must be signed with the system certificates. These certificates are generally available only to the device manufacturers.

2) be installed in /system/app partition.
