Before installing it says "Allow this application to:"
- Network communciatoin
full network access
Now thats fine, I click install. It quickly says "Application not installed" with just the done button at the bottom, no details or anything. I also tried to sideload the apks downloaded from several of the many free app sites, and none of them work. The Weather Channel app I downloaded didn't work either and gave the same error. I was however, able to get the Skype and Kindle APKs to work from the 3rd party app sites so some are successful and some are not. Is there a trick to getting this stuff to work?? It sure would be helpful if there was some kind of error log or error details to give the slightest clue as to why it wouldn't work.
Edit: I should also add that I've downloaded these multiple times

Many users on this forum, myself included, have not been able to run Angry Birds. Because Ermine is a beta release there is no guarantee that all Apps will work with it. Some Apps require full flash support which the PE does not have as of now. Basically, if an App says Application not installed it is a safe bet to say it won't work with the PE. I wish I could give you a better answer but for me it has been trial and error. This is not to say there aren't some terrific Apps out there. First, start with the Entourage Store. They have many hand picked Apps for both the EE and PE. Also, check out my post for new PE owners. I detail several excellent Apps that will work on the PE.
