Error parsing the package

This error keeps comes on my phone but it did not come before,I saw all the stack overflow methods but non of them could help me.
I get this error when I test the app from android studio to my phone.I tried on other phones too but still the problem exist.
This is my manifest:

Main tag of manifest file must be manifest. Instead of xml tag, write something like:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="org.dummy"
android:versionCode="100"
android:versionName="1.0.0" >
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SEND_SMS" />

<application
android:allowBackup="true"

android:label="#string/app_name"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">
...
</application>
</manifest>

As you are using Android Studio, I believe that you are likely have the problem mentioned in this question, and as mentioned here in the answer this error happens when you change the build version for your project (like downgrading or upgrading):
I've been working on this same exact problem for the last 8
hours...you've had no issues after rolling back from 2.0 to 1.5.1?
I've noticed that, even with the error, running the app works fine
sometimes.
so you have to make sure that there is no problem with the new release you are using, then you have to clean and rebuild your project again like mentioned here.
Or you can use the following hint from this answer:
Remove the .idea folder and gradle folder, then click button sync
project with gradle gradle files, after this process finished, you are
able to run your app as normal.

Android app running when deployed via Android Studio but not installed on phone

When running my app on my device straight from android studio, its running fine when deployed but its not actually installing - as in no icon in the menu etc (but it is in the settings under apps). Any help to solve would be great.
manifest is below.

thanks in advance

Contrary to popular belief the action of this intent filter is not supposed to contain the activity's class name. This should fix it:
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>

It is definitely installed on the phone, if it was run on the phone.
You could try compiling the apk and manually installing with adb:
I assume you are using gradle to build:
From project directory root:
View build tasks:
./gradlew tasks
./gradlew assembleDebug
The apk would be created in app/build/outputs/apk/
Now cd to that directory and run:
adb install my-app.apk
Make sure your device or emulator is connected

Apportable conversion VerdeActivity error

Hi all and thanks in advance,
i'm new with apportable and i'm trying to port my iOS app. I can build the app with no error but when i try to "load"(apportable load) or "debug" (apportable debug) on device or emulatior i recieve this message ".VerdeActivity class does not exists".
i have read this question too but i'm having the same problem also after the modifications.
Can anyone help me?

Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK]
Starting: Intent { cmp=Lallo/com.apportable.activity.VerdeActivity (has extras) }
Error type 3
Error: Activity class {Lallo/com.apportable.activity.VerdeActivity} does not exist.

your package name is just "Lallo". You need a package name with dots in there. Usually a fully qualified reverse DNS name of your company with the package name.
For example:
com.apportable.Spin
You can change this in your .approj/configuration.json file.
Hope that helps.

An alterative reason for this error:
When running apportable for the first time, it asks which version of OpenGS ES (ES1 or ES2).
If you answer this wrong then you will get this error.
In my case I didn't realise the game I was working on still had the old version of cocos2d in it - uses ES1.
Hope this helps somebody else. I spent most of a day on this issue thinking there was an issue with my phone...

app appears in Manage Applications, but not on the main menu

I'm using Eclipse to make an Android app. I've used it before and not had this problem. The console says everything installed ok, so I'm a little confused. I'm not sure what is relevant from logcat, but I can post it if you think that would help.
I've restarted Eclipse, ADB, the emulator, and the Mac several times in various orders and nothing has helped. I know it must be something simple but I haven't played around with this in a few months.

</activity>

Your Activity needs to be inside of your application tag in your manifest
<application
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name" >
<activity android:name=".pinpoint" android:label="pinpoint">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
It's a similar issue to this:
Unable to start Service Intent

Your <activity> tag needs to be in the <application> block.

Is it possible your manifest does not refer to any activities? If you install an app with no activities in the manifest you will get this behavior.
