install of apk on acer spin 311 problem


wonder if you could help me please



i have a acer spin 311 chrome-book and i have installed the linux option and updated it and upgraded the linux install, and set it for adb and also installed android tools i am trying to put film+ on it ,with the apk file i moved it to linux files

and did as below

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb

and adb is enabled

i downloaded the apk file moved to linux folder
i renamed it film.apk
and put in the terminal as below

adb install app.film.apk

the adb came up to allow and i did

and i get this
adb install app.film.apk
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
* daemon started successfully
Performing Streamed Install
adb: failed to stat app.film.apk: No such file or directory
gingersam78@penguin:~$

the strange thing is i did the same on my asus c424 and it works fine

not sure if it makes a difference but the acer spin 311 is 32 bit and running android 9 but the asus is 64 bit and running android 11

I Wonder if the apk i am trying is 64 b,it as it installed on my asus chromebook c424 but the acer spin is 32 bit as i understand the linux installed on chromebooks is Crostini,any help would be great BTW
I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO FIND OUT IF APK IS 64 BIT OR 32 BIT
Thanks paul

"No such file or directory" means it was not found. Probably it has a different name

well just to let people know , the problem was that the APKs are 64 bit and obviously now know why they will not work or install on my 32 bit Acer chromebook ,but install and work fine on my Asus 64 bit laptop nothing wrong with the path or procedure as in the above video it works like a charm on 64 bit chromebook so the install instruction as above in my post is correct hopes this helps for people who would like to install that kind of Apk on a 64 bit chromebook

The youtube video in link above explains how and it will work on 64 bit chromebook
