Android Question Since update problem parsing the package every app

[Nimbus4]

Apps that worked before, now get "There was a problem parsing the package." when installing the release apk that was compiled with B4A V8. I've been reading through the forums and online to the point my eyes hurt. They run in debug mode just fine. Tried on a S8 Android Version 8.0.0, S8 Android Version 7, Motorola Driod Android Version 6.0.1. Any help would be appreciated.
PS: I'm probably looking right at the answer somewhere, bit I'm not seeing it.

It is not related to the notification changes.

Are you using B4A-Bridge to install? Try to use USB debug mode and monitor the unfiltered logs.

You can also upload a small APK that fails to install and we can test it as well.

Thank you Erel. This simple example fails to install on the 3 devices I've tried.

I could install the app without problem in my device.

Try to change the packagename from b4a.example to another one...

That did not work.

Correction: That did not work on my S8 that has Android 8, but did work on a device with Android 7

Your project installs fine here on an Android 8 device.

Switch to USB debug mode and monitor the unfiltered logs.

Problem solved. A fresh install on B4A V8 fixed the problem. Thanks everyone for your help.

NOTE: if you put your app on Google drive, you must go into Install Unknown Apps in Android 8 settings and allow it.
