Installer problem

Open Rinqer opened this issue 3 years ago • 7 comments

The SMAPI installer app freezes at either 49% or 93% and is incapable of installing. Is it a problem with my hardware or something else. I have a samsung galaxy tab A.

I also have that model, but it seems to work fine for me... 😅 If you have any ~~CHUNKY~~ large apps, it may be good to force stop them so there is for sure enough ram. It also takes a while on these old devices, so it could be good to just let it sit for a while.

I closed all the apps but the installer sill freezes. How much space does smapi need?

To be honest, im not sure... I think you can run "adb top" to see what processes are using resources, to see if anything is getting full or if its a bug in the app.

what is a adb top?

Adb, aka Android Debug Bridge, is a command line tool that is intended for debugging applications and making changes to the system you cant normally. Running "adb top" with the adb installed, your device plugged in, and with usb debugging enabled will show you what apps are using what resources your device has, in quite a similar way to task manager on windows.
