I don't think there is any way to install an apk through a computer. I am no expert. Is your device rooted?

I have the LG Ultimate 2, the LG Realm made for TracFone and I fixed a issue like yours by doing a reset. Use this movie to boot into stock recovery: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjrGNBgD6xQ
But what you can do is take out the SD and shove it into your PC and put the LG Home Theme in a flashable zip file than you can flash in the stock recovery. If you give me the files I can make the flashable zip file for you. But you would select "Apply update from SD Card" to install it. Tell me if you need any more help

My device is rooted yes and I have the files the problem is I don't know how to flash them when the micro sd card isn't able to be mounted

E:failed to mount /sdcard (invalid argument)

I can give the files 2marrow it will be in a Dropbox link if u could make them a flash able zip I would REALLY appreciate it thanks

Did you try what ryancunningham suggested, resetting the phone?

Re: do yall know of a way to port a apk file to android and install in through a computer

Yes it works but for some reason the keyboard is gone so I can't download anything to it and the home screen is glitchy I have the files for all of them is there a video on how to make a zip file avalible for flashing? is it a regular zip file and all u have to do is make the pathway for the file or is it more complex than that?

Did you try going into settings and taping "Mount SD Card"? It's easy to do. But making flashable zip is harder then it looks. If you could post the link to the .apk files and the .odex files that would be awesome!

I'm not too sure if this is relevant, but if you can get to the settings and enable USB debugging, you could try installing the apk through adb

Re: do yall know of a way to port a apk file to android and install in through a computer

Well I guess I would work towards the 10 postings so ryancunningham can help you with the zip good luck!

Put the file on the internal storage and remove the as card then try it again.

Re: do yall know of a way to port a apk file to android and install in through a computer

how am I supposed to do that? I cant access the file system from my android nor am I able to access it through windows could I enable adb while in factory reset mode if I could then could u possibly give me a video or a tutorial? I don't know much about android but I do know allitle I have issued adb code and push stuff to my phone b4 the restore but once I did the restore it reset my settings and disabled the adb again and since I cant access settings I don't know of a way to enable it ooh and when I plug it into the computer its a charge only connection that's why I cant access it through the computer

Yes. That would work. I am sorry a can't make a movie on how to do that because there is one option in recovery on my phone: Reset. If only TracFone just left the LG L70 the way it was and did not disable stuff, this phone would amazing. I wish I could help more, but I know only how to reboot a phone using adb. Don't forget that you can sell it on eBay and say: "Good condition, turns on, and with charger."

I have a solution! If you want to flash zips, then install flash Gordon! I installed that today and it works. I hope this helps you a bit more!

Bro you should make a flash able zip file of that app and flash through cwm or twrp,it will surely fix your problem
1) Download and extract the
sample.zip by root explorer.

Extracted folder (sample) will be in speedsoftware > extracted

2) Now open folder sample you should see two folders: one called "system" and one called "META-INF".

3) Let's start with the "system"

so open it:

In there, will go all files that what
you want to add or replace to the
system. So let's say for example that you want to replace the bootanimation.

4) Make a "New Floder" in sample> system > newfolder* ,name its as "media" *(make sure its aint in CAPS nor with in quotation marks)

5) now simply move the file in
their respective place:

the bootanimation.zip file should go in '/system/media' folder

**If you have more files to add, just follow the logic above; I'm sure you get the idea by now..


[size=+2]Hints[/size]

Spoiler

6) The other folder included in the folder sample(sample) is named "META-INF". So, You may have to Replace the update-binary (if ur flashable zip is not working) inside the META-INF folder with an update-binary got from a zip that works in your phone.

7) if ur work with that folder complete then zip that folder.

8) now open ZIPsigner

-choose input

-Give address to ur zip u have created

-Give address to output where the flashable zip will be saved!!

9) Choose auto-testkey as key.

10) press Sign
