Answer 1

You can do something like this.

Intent promptInstall = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW)
    .setDataAndType(Uri.parse("file:///path/to/your.apk"), 
                    "application/vnd.android.package-archive");
startActivity(promptInstall); 

Answer 2

this is an old post but for others i want to share my experience with the same issue. The error "There was problem parsing the package" came because you have modify the apk name. you must let its original name. hope this help.
