My Debug apk's install fine, but my signed release (or distribution) config apk's start to install and then give me the 'App not installed' message on my device. I would guess its not signing it properly? but it appears to. Any tips appreciated.

  • Thanks! I had uninstalled it but once I uninstalled it for all users then I was good (is that new for lollipop?) – rethenhouser2 Apr 25 '15 at 18:03

you are welcome,

PS: sorry! I can't comment (not enough reputation!) but it took, somehow, my previous answer as a comment, :)) So I put it here again: The answer:

If the two .apks have different signatures (Eclipse uses a debug certificate), you will not be able to install/update with the new .apk without removing the previous one.

You can find more information about this here.

Found here.
