Roku is not Android. No matter what you've read you cannot load an APK file.
i have also tried to install a zip file with the same error.
im using a v30 class micro sd card, and it was formatted in the roku box. ive logged into the correct ip address and uploaded the file, when installing with zip it loads then stops with that error. am i missing something? does the box have to be on, and on the home screen, or connected direct to the pc via usb etc.
Is it a zip of an APK file? It's not going to work. Roku is its own thing not compatible with anything else. You can't take some random zip and try to load it. The fact that you're getting the "no manifest" message tells me you're trying to load something that's not meant for a Roku device. If there's no manifest in that zip it's not for a Roku.
