    Hello
    I recently uninstalled an android app on my bb passport thinking I'd just reinstall it if it comes to that.
    Now the problem is the phone won't let me install the app again.

    It always shows "unable to install this app"
    I've tried reinstalling countless times.
    Even tried to downgrade the same but still no luck.

    Can anyone help me out?

    Are you trying to install a newer version that is incompatible? Do you have another patched version already installed?

    Any chance you are using OS 10.3.2.2876?

    If so, update your Android Runtime using BlackBerry World, reboot. Then install Ghost Commander and properly delete the offending app.

    I'm trying to install the same version.

    I got lucky when I managed to install the same but it was force closing after waiting at "initializing. Please wait"

    I think it has something to do with updating android apps.
    Recently updated shareit from cobalt's store and the same stuff happened again.
    Now I can't even install the app

    The app was likely built for a newer version of Android. BB10 Android runtime is stuck at 4.3.

    Just to check: have you rebooted your phone and tried after that?

    Works fine for me.

    Maybe there is something left over from the previous install. Look around with Ghost Commander.

    Tried it
    It doesn't show the applications that are giving me trouble either.

    It should. Hmm. My only other thought is a device wipe. Then install the app that is giving you a hard time. I wonder if the ART is messed up, or some other conflict with another app.

    It is happening with every single app that I'm trying to update

    Reboot your phone by holding down the power button until it restarts. Then don't touch it for at least 10 minutes. If it's still doing this, then you will have to do a clean install of the OS or a security wipe.

    Hmm but don't you think that's unusual?
    Like I can perfectly install fresh apps.

    There may be something corrupted in your Android runtime.

    I did install the blackberry android runtime.
    Nevertheless, I'll have to reset the phone if I don't find a solution (which I'm not sure I will)

    If you're saying you applied the patch for the Android runtime from BlackBerry World that was intended for 10.3.2.2876, then that might be your problem.
