So I just downloaded the nightly version of Firefox (ARMv6) apk and when I install, I get the following error message:-

Application not installed

This, isn't a very friendly message.. what could be the cause? How do I find out?

Logcat for this particular problem says:-

W/PackageParser(  137): Exception reading libxul.so in /data/app/vmdl70897.tmp

Have you uninstalled existing Firefox app, in case you had it? – Suraj Bajaj Dec 20 '12 at 12:51
@SurajBajaj I never had firefox app installed. Never tried it.. (because firefox only recently released ARMv6 builds) – Power-Inside Dec 20 '12 at 12:52
I am not sure how much it can help but still have you seen this question? – Suraj Bajaj Dec 20 '12 at 12:57
Do you have enough free space? Did you check logcat? What device do you have? – Lie Ryan Dec 20 '12 at 13:24

@Power-Inside Have you tried re-downloading the APK? May the APK is corrupt. Again a wild guess... – Suraj Bajaj Dec 20 '12 at 17:26
