Hi Peter,
I guess I should have included a few more words :)
Yes, I have allow apps from unknown sources set
I am using the 64 bit package
I did try clearing data and cache ( no difference )
This is on a shield.
I never got this working with the
20180915-arm64-v30-Pre-775-gf30e50bfd0a, but
20180814-arm64-v30-Pre-714-gc2621a984b7 can still be installed via FX
file explorer.
I installed adb and figured out how to use it and I was able to load the
package that way after I removed the previous package. All of my
frontend settings were lost though which was strange since I am NOT
using a custom frontend identifier. In my testing yesterday, I
reinstalled the August version many time and never lost my settings.
Anyway, I am on the new package.
I am having an audio issue that appeared recently. But I will start a
separate thread for that.
Michael
