"Package was not signed correctly"

Hello, my name is Chris, this is my first post here and I have admittedly lurking here for a while, but my current issue has prompted me to post.

I have a rooted Moto X2, and I am getting the "package not signed correctly" message when I try to install some apps, specifically when updating google voice and super user.

How do I go about fixing this, if there is a fix.

My X2 is running Eclipse RC2 gb 4.2.2 with Go Launcher EX (not sure if that matters.

Any help?

I had the exact same problem on my D1 last week. I un rooted to get the FRK update and after i did that i got that message trying to update the Google (and only Google) apps. Except for YouTube. I did everything, master reset, format sd card, unistall updates to the market, erase data from market, erased the cache nothing did the trick!

Something bad happened when i installed the OTA FRG83G update to unroot so I rooted the device and un rooted using this method http://www.droidforums.net/forum/re...ck-2-2-without-sbf-rsd-lite-droid-1-only.html and everything worked fine after that.

I know you said you have a Droid X but maybe you need to un root back to stock and root again like i did?
 
Welcome to the forums! :) Hope you get you're prob solved!

Sorry if I am late to the party but the reason your apps will not update does have to do with the fact you are running a custom ROM. To sum it up the apps that come with the ROM, in this case the ones you are trying to update, are most likely signed with a different key then the ones from the market which makes it error out.

For Superuser there is an app on the market to combat this. It is free and it is called "Superuser Update Fixer." Try downloading it then updating. For Google search you will most likely have to uninstall it and then download it from the market.
 
I will try the super user one, but it was google voice, not search. I have cleared data and cache a couple of times and every time, voice wont update. And ut didn't come with eclipse.

Ok I got SU updated, but google voice still wont update. I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling, but that didn't work, now I had to sideload a older version from the interwebs... anyone?

i used to have this problem with youtube not updating, i don't quite remember how it got fixed but it got to do with the rom i'd suggest reinstalling the rom. or wiping data then try
backup your rom with cwr and do a advanced restore and get just the data back then update google.

edit: it had to do with the Su binary

Was it a themed one or did you download it from the market originally? Just trying to figure out why it would't work because that is strange if you downloaded it from the market and it won't update. In that instance it could be a market issue.

Maybe try uninstalling it and then rebooting. Then try installing it again.

Actually, I got the same error when trying to update GV on the stock firmware.

Yeah I actually would have skipped posting that last part had I not thought I read they posted about Google search, voice is rarely a system app. But I am beginning to wonder if there is some sort of issue with GV based on the last few posts.
