HELP PLEASE "there is a problem parsing the package"

[iamloco724]

i just got my replacment droid in the mail and im trying to install droidmod to easily root and when i download the apk for any version i get this error "there is a problem parsing the package"

what do i do..i already set the setting to accept from unknown sources

 

[iamloco724]

and i installed astro to try to install from there and when i go into package details it said could not open /sdcard/download/dmupdater1-11.apk as APK file

 

[iamloco724]

does it matter that im on 2.0 and not 2.0.1

I would be fairly willing to bet that if you just got a replacement Droid today it is on Android 2.1, not 2.0 which would likely be the cause of your problems.

My advice would be to go into the Root section, and go to the Now you can live without fear of bricking. There are step by step instructions there.

no its 2.0 not 2.1 clearly says 2.0 not 2.1 not 2.0.1

Find a new copy of dmupdater or root the manual way.
