Where did you install Termux from?
F droid
Do you have any other Termux apps on your device? If so, which ones and where did you get them from?
No
I assume this is the first time you tried to launch Termux?
No also I installed the one from play store first and then uninstalled it because I wanted a full version
Ah... did you uninstall all the other Termux Add-on apps from Google Play first (if you had any installed)?
Yes
Uninstall the one from the Play Store and then install the one from F-Droid.
Termux (
com.termux) is the base app.
One of the Addons is Termux:API (com.termux.api)
Just to make sure we are on the same page (figuratively speaking).And in all of them that are different from the play store I get the same error github f droid
- The ones on Google Play Store are unsupported (might still be quite outdated) and use a signing key that is inaccessible to most of the devs here.
- The ones on F-Droid are code-verified by the F-Droid team, who also compiles the APKs with their own signing key.
- The pre-built ones on GitHub are using a signing key that is owned by the team itself.
Android does not allow installing apps with conflicting signing keys (if it did, one could easily overwrite the system apps with malware).
^ Now, I'll assume you have nothing important to save in this current install...
1. Go into your Android's own Settings.
2. Go into Apps (name may be different).
3. Find Termux and tap it.
4. You want to Force Stop it and then Clear Data
ok ok
i go
After this, open Termux, let it unpack, and make sure to not switch apps / answer texts / etc. until it is successful.
Once it is finished, send the
exit command, and reopen the app. (I'll grab the next steps)
After installing Termux and opening it, you should do the following: 1.This first update will be installing a lot of updates that will require Termux to be fully closed and reopened so they can work properly. Some updates will need you to do the same (this includes disabling the "Wake lock" if you have it enabled)termux-change-repo(to select a nearby mirror to get updates from): -SPACEtoggles highlighted options; -ENTERmoves to the next screen; Choose the first/topmost option on each screen. (If that one fails, try another.) 2.pkg update && pkg upgrade(to update your package database, then upgrade all packages) On each prompt, pressyandEnterto install newest versions available 3.exit(to exit Termux, so you can restart it yourself, all updated!)
I still have it with the permissions and delete data
What is in the triple-dot menu at the top right?
If there is a way to save or export the error, that is what will be helpful. @♱Skullcandy!♱
By the way, for that first block it shown in the image you provided, are you able to scroll it sideways? If so, what is the path it is referring to?
Only part of it is visible:

(Oh, and please @ ping me for every message, just in case I'm not looking at this channel)
Here is
Okay, thank you very much.
First, Copy and then switch back to here and paste the message.
Okay, change of tactics.
Do you have a text editor app?
Even a simple one will work.
You should be able to use Share and select that app.
Afterwards, save the file from that app.
hmm... okay, good to know that the sharing is really busted.
Try to just paste what you copied into the editor or whatever it is.
Once you got it there, you can save it.
That spot will not work (that is within Termux)
okay we got into a shell, so that's good.
Try running:
(I don't know if that is the path your device uses, but doesn't hurt to try if it is not)
Are you using the Enter key on the touch thing above the keyboard?
Yes
nvm ... just swipe the extra keys thing to the left
@CtrlAltCuteness.py
Should see something like that above your keyboard
type it into there and then try pressing your enter key again
If you still are at the
> prompt after pressing your enter / send key a few more times without any proper output, let me know
Probably something wrong with the typing. Do you know how to copy messages on Discord?
/system/bin/ls
^ try copying that message and pasting it in to send it.
okay that is just weird.
Can you use the "BACK" key (press it with a delay so you don't zoom past it) to get your way back to the error screen?
Now run the command again and I'm there.
This screen you were at before https://discord.com/channels/641256914684084234/1361613108363399379/1362175392789827764
The one in red & white
I'm already there
What file editor app do you have?
Currently, I want you to copy from the error again and then paste it into a normal file editor so you can save it on your device.
Ah... is that a Google product? I forgot.
Oh yes it is.... derp
hmm unusual error
i tested both v0.119.0-beta.2 and v0.118.2 clean installed on android 15 just now and they aren't showing that
@♱Skullcandy!♱
if you try one of the older releases like for example termux v0.118.1, does the same error happen?
