Installation failed due to invalid APK file! - Android

Question

So there were a couple of posts on this topic, but it looks like my log cat is totally different. Not sure what's going on. When I try to run on my device I get console log:

[2012-07-17 14:50:57 - zrox] Launch canceled!

And Logcat:

I just installed a rom on my Nexus S for android 4.1. It worked when I had 4.0.3 yesterday. I do have the 4.1 SDK installed in eclipse, and android:targetSdkVersion is set to 16. I have also run a clean on the project. Nothing. Any ideas?

Solution 1

I believe it is the rom you are running, I'm on a rom ported to the NS4G from Indirect. Here are his posts on XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=51245494

I have the same problem as well. :/

If you are running latest Siyah Kernel with JB, you can install Extweaks-> Go to Misc Set ADB Binary Mode to DEVELOPMENT ADB ..
