I've added an empty file to the META-INF of my apk, For Android 4.3, it was installed as usual, but when when i installed it on Android 5.0.2, it failed with INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_NO_CERTIFICATES.

  • Ideally you can not edit into apk file directly. – Rushabh Patel Dec 04 '15 at 09:49
  • but it`s the "META-INF" directory, if you add an empty file into it, there is no need to re-signed you apk. – B. Chen Dec 07 '15 at 03:04

Same error in my android project. The difference is that adding empty files naming like channel_ in META-INF folder in my project.

After adding above file, I have to use "zipalign" on apk file.

I have to build more than 100 apks (different in ), some of them can be installed on Android L, some others can't.
