Answer 1

Since you haven’t stated what the error message is when you try to install the second time, I am assuming there is a package name conflict.

Are you sure you have used your own package name in the code, including the manifest (and parts that may have the package name hardcoded)?

If not, you must make sure your code uses your own package name, and that the manifest file reflects that.

(Note that it’s probably unwise to tamper with the package name in the ZXing code)
