Issue in LeadSquared Mobile App: Parse Error
Error Message Reads: “There was a problem parsing the package”.
Issue and Context:
Hi Team,
Oftentimes, you might encounter a customer issue where a mobile user is trying to run the LeadSquared Application, but is facing the following error:
This issue will occur mostly in Android devices.
As you can see, the message says “Parse Error: There was a problem parsing the package.”
Reason / Resolution:
The LeadSquared Mobile Application will not run on rooted devices – the error for ‘parsing package’ that we saw in the screenshot often occurs when this is the case.
Rooting is the process of unlocking or jailbreaking a device, such as a smartphone or tablet. It most commonly refers to android devices. A rooted device gives the user much more freedom to customize the device and achieve more administrative control.
Rooting an Android device leaves it much more exposed to malware attacks, hacking, and other security threats. Not only can tampering with Android’s sub-systems disable security features, but rooted phones stop receiving official security updates, meaning newly discovered bugs and weaknesses remain unpatched.
