No permission for installation #43

Closed Valdnet closed 2 years ago

Valdnet commented 3 years ago

Steps:

  1. Disable "Allow Application Installation" permissions.
  2. Select the installation file to be installed.
  3. Skip granting permissions to install from unknown sources.

If the application is not authorized to install from unknown sources, an information message about granting these permissions appears during installation. If you skip this step and do not grant permissions, the application does not terminate the installation with an error, there is only a continuous and never-ending progress of the application installation.

In general, in the absence of authorization for installation from unknown sources, you should receive a message that the application cannot be installed.

Apps: Android 10 Package Manager v5.1

@Valdnet I am already in a brainstorming thinking process to make that part more clearer. What do you think about show "Allow from unknown sources" screen, if the permission is already granted, before initiating the installation screen? Any other idea? Please let me know. Thanks a lot :)

What do you think about show "Allow from unknown sources" screen, if the permission is already granted, before initiating the installation screen?

Rather: "if the not permission is still granted, before initiating the installation screen"

I think it's a good idea 😉.

Btw, you're spending a lot of time to review each and every bit of my app. Really appreciable job. Thanks a lot

I test a lot of applications manually that I like and I know that they can be even better after fixing the bugs and improving the appearance. This is the case with your application. However, sometimes I am demanding 😉.

@Valdnet I did some work in v5.2 to address this issue. App will now allow closing if the user refused to grant permission, though the progress bar still runs like before. Definitely, more work is needed. So, I'll leave this issue open.

I will gladly test the new version, but I have to wait for the new version of the application in F-Droid to be released, because you do not include the finished installation file in the releases, unless you can do it. If not, then you can send me a ready APK by email, it will speed up testing 😉. Thank you for your great contribution and quick fixes to the application 👍.

In fact, I stopped building APKs a long ago (after FDroid release). However, you can try the xapk file liked, which directly exported from my app (play store version). https://www.dropbox.com/s/nve51vqlga14xma/com.smartpack.packagemanager.apkm?dl=0

And what will I install it now :flushed:?

Through your application I can't, because there is a conflict, but XAPK Installer does not support APKM :grin:.

Through your application I can't, because there is a conflict, but XAPK Installer does not support APKM 😁.

In that case, I'll built an APK for you later today.

This APK is for you.
