Error Parsing Package When Installing My App

So I get this weird error when I try to install the signed apk file on my android Xperia z3 device. I have sat with this for 6 hours now and I don't find a solution to all the post

Solution 1:

"There was a problem parsing the package".

This error usually happens when install the unsign apk. I think there are something went wrong when you sign the apk. You could follow this tutorial : Manually Signing the APK to sign it manually. Since you have already run the app in the emulator, you could get the signed apk in ...\projcetfolder\bin\Release and use it install your app.

Solution 2:

If renaming does not work check android manifest file. I had missed

<intent><actionandroid:name="android.intent.action.SEND" /><dataandroid:mimeType="*/*" /></intent>

Missed those *and it resulted in that issue
