Hey, so I have a bunch of items that won’t install, saying they’re not compatible with my device. Thing is, they were all installed prior to my doing a reset. I just needed to get a fresh clean start after lots of testing stuff cluttered things.
OK so here are things to note: I’m using a Moto g stylus 5g 2023 (XT2315-1) genenv. Android 13. I have TWRP setup as my recovery, and I’m rooted with Magisk which is up to date.
I did not make any upgrades or downgrades of Android, I simple reset. Most things are working fine, but just some APKs won’t install.
It is possible that I had previously had an LSposed (Xposed variant) module installed which dealt with this; all it is, is an arbitrary minAPI designation but in no way actually has a compatibility problem. But try as I might, I don’t remember specifically installing a module to resolve this. Rather, I suspect perhaps it was dealt with inadvertently by something I happened to install. ¿maybe?
If anyone knows the solution to this, I’d be much-preesh.
Sounds like your play integrity is failing, which is, for some reason, checked by many apps who don’t really need it.

Probably not if android is saying the apk is incompatible at install time, which I think is the case here.
Play integrity only takes effect once you actually launch the app (or install it from play I think)
I’m not installing from Play, I’m just using an apk file via package installer.
That doesn’t matter, play API services are built into the APK. That being said, as far as I know, the check actually happens when you launch the app, not when you’re installing it, so I’m probably wrong anyways
