I have an Android 4.4.2 phone and I enabled ART instead of Dalvik.

When I go to the Google Play Store and try to install Facebook, it can't install the app.

I get two errors, sometimes I get

Invalid installation package

and sometimes

Error -24

Is there a way to know what's going on?

    Have you considered the possibility that the facebook app is not compatible with the ART runtime? Some apps may work straight out of Playstore with ART, others don't. ART is not yet ready for prime-time!

  • @t0mm13b Hi! Yes, I considered it. But if you take a look at the ART compatibility list it seems that facebook is fully compatible. Also, every friend of mine that switched to ART can use facebook without issues, even with custom roms. Is there something I can do to try to find what's the problem on my phone? P.s. I also tried installing facebook on dalvik and switching to ART after installation. If I do such thing, the phone goes to reboot loop

  • It's an experimental feature in 4.4. Please direct bug reports to Google.

I've had this same problem. To fix it I did the following:

Uninstall Facebook, Wipe dalvik cache via recovery, Reinstall Facebook, Reboot device, Sign in to Facebook.

  • Read the question: I'm not even able to install facebook. And if I install it on dalvik, then clear cache and switch to ART, i get a boot loop

  • I'm not saying switch to dalvik, I'm saying clear the cache via the clear dalvik cache command in recovery.

Try switching back to Dalvik --> Install Facebook --> switch back to ART. It's working fine for me, i just happened to have installed it before switching to ART
