Common Problems and their Fixes 

“App not installed” error

If you get this error while trying to install the app, it may be for several reasons. First, check that this is the only version of the app on your phone. You may have already installed an older version of the app back then so uninstall it first.

Then, if the problem is still there, you may need to turn on the Play Protect feature. Lastly, if the problem is still there, it maybe that your phone doesn’t support this APK file. If all else fails, try to restart your device.

“Download failed because you may not have purchased this app” error

If you get this problem, it means you were downloading an app with an OBB but you forgot the OBB. Then, you just need to download the OBB from ModCombo.io.

But if you’ve copied the OBB correctly but the problem is still there, you may need to download the original version from Google Play Store first then uninstall it. After that, install the APK/OBB again.
