We recently made some changes to how MobileXPRT installs. Previously, when you installed MobileXPRT from Google Play, it downloaded the user experience (UX) tests from the Principled Technologies servers. This required you to have the Unknown sources option set, which allows installation of non-market apps, even if you installed MobileXPRT from Google Play.
We have removed this restriction. MobileXPRT now installs the UX tests from Google play, so installation is cleaner. However, the UX tests are not intended to be installed outside of MobileXPRT.
An unrelated fix now makes sure that MobileXPRT cleans out all of its content when you uninstall it. This fix required the location of the results file to move. See Submit your MobileXPRT 2013 results! for details.
If you prefer, you can still install MobileXPRT from the PT site. However, when installing from the PT site, you will still need the Unknown sources option set.
We continue looking for ways to improve the benchmarks. If you have any things you’d like to see us improve, please post to the forums or send an e-mail to benchmarkxprtsupport@principledtechnologies.com
