Android Question Install apk [solved]

[JDS]

I'm trying to update my app without the playstore. I've downloaded the APK of the server and set it to a folder.
I'm using the code below but I can't figure out why I don't get a popup which asks to install. Any thoughts?

out = File.OpenOutput(File.dirinternal,APK_Filename,False)
    File.Copy2(In,out)
    out.Close
    If File.Exists(File.dirinternal,APK_Filename) = True Then
        File.Copy(File.dirinternal, APK_Filename, Com.Provider.SharedFolder, APK_Filename)
      
        Dim iIntent As Intent
        iIntent.Initialize(iIntent.ACTION_VIEW,"" )
        Com.Provider.SetFileUriAsIntentData(iIntent, APK_Filename)
        'Type must be set after calling SetFileUriAsIntentData
        iIntent.SetType("application/vnd.android.package-archive")
        StartActivity(iIntent)
    End If

Unfiltered logs (see "Spoiler") mention something about "whitelist"?

Did you enable the "Install unknown apps" setting? Also, another clue in your logs:

Requesting uid 10096 needs to declare permission android.permission.REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES

Check this thread. Everything you need is in the Example

Version safe APK installation

As explained in this tutorial all store apps will soon be forced to target the latest SDK. This means that we can no longer rely on the OS backwards compatibility features and need to handle the behavior changes ourselves. Starting from Android 8 (API 26) each app needs to explicitly request a...
