Unsuccessfully installing an app on a tablet Genesis GT-7240

Navigation
1

I have a Genesis GT-7240 tablet, whose version of Android is 4.1.1, Kernel 3.0.36 +.

My manifest.xml has 

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="11" android:targetSdkVersion="17" />

I'm trying to run a simple application, which uses Google Maps and therefore the compilation has to be via Google API and not Android.

I compiled the application, tapped the tablet to accept untrusted fonts, copied APK to the tablet's download folder, as I've done hundreds of times with other apps.

However, when you install the application, the message

  

X App not installed

and there is no explanation of what error.

Other apps that are based on Google Maps have also seen that they did not work out happily before.

Note: On another tablet, now a Samsung, it works. And the version is 3.2.

The Maps API is not native to the Android OS, meaning it is not part of the Android core and may not be available on this tablet.

This is especially true for models that are not OHA and Google approved, and so for legal reasons they can not put Google Maps on the device, so it is not possible to install as it is an essential library for the application that is not installed on the tablet.

This is even the reason you can install on the Samsung device, which is approved and has Google Maps.

If your AndroidManifest.xml has ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission and your device does not have GPS (which seems to be the case for this tablet), it will not install. The reason is simple: this permission is precisely what makes the GPS feature available to applications and therefore requires a GPS receiver to work.

I also use a Genesis Tablet for development (GT-1230), and I noticed that these devices do not have several sensors, I've had problems trying to download apps on Google Play, due to lack of sensors (hardware) and not per software version, make sure these Google API-based applications do not require a sensor that your Tablet might not have available.

Note: It may be something else, but from my experience it should be somehow connected to hardware, not software.
