Hi Deepesh,

I'm not sure what's the issue, but could you check the following

• What is the Android version installed on the device?
• did you make sure the initial app version has testOnly="true" attribute in AndroidManifest? You can check the apk after build at the following urls www.sisik.eu/apk-tool
• is the app enabled as device owner? (there should be no errors when executing adb shell dpm set-device-owner xxxxx/.xxx)
• is the update apk file build with testOnly="false" or without this element completely? Again, please also check www.sisik.eu/apk-tool first

Regards, Roman

Hi Roman! Thank you very much for your response. I think the bug lies with the location. If I just push the updated application via adb at the path /data/local/tmp then the thing works. However, in my case I am downloading an application and saving it in external storage Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() and the code is unable to install the application from this location. After session.commit nothing happens and my app is already a device owner and also i have given external storage permissions. Let me know if you are aware of this bug. Thank you very much.

Hi Roman! I found the bug in my code. It was something to do with the inconsistent package names. Thanks for your response on this whole issue. I am closing this issue.
