I tried to import the 4.5.0 version of the plugins that you introduced. However, it doesn't work. I imported them all but still happens nothing. How long does it take to be fully imported? Is it correct to import apk plugin files and press 'Sync Packages'?

[@airsofteo9105]

Which version of atak itself do you have? I do know they have released a few new updates for versions of 4.5 so its possible even those plugins won't install. That aside, you can import the plugins thru the import manager, and try the blue arrow buttons on the top. Also could try to not only exit atak but force close it thru your phone settings. Last possible solution off hand i can think of; copy or move the apk files to the atak folder on your internal phone drive. Something like atak/support/apks/bundled. Install them from that folder or try to import them inside of atak. Hopefully one of those suggestions can help

@@airsofteo9105 I'm using 4.5.1 version of CIVTAK. Are 4.5.0 plugins not work on 4.5.1 version of ATAK-CIV?

[@airsofteo9105]

I do not know the answer to that question. Let me try updating one of my devices to 4.5 1 and see if the plugins don't work on mine. It is quite possible that they won't, the developers might need to build the plugins again. (As a small rant, this is one of many reasons I primarily use 4.4) But stand by I'm checking now

So I just installed the geocam, icu, image markup tool and nightvision. They all loaded and work however interestingly enough, the TAK Package Management does not list them. Do this for me, to to settings, then Tool Preferences, scroll down, do you see "Night Vision Preferences" listed? Also try to take a picture with the Picture icon, does Tak GeoCam come up? (Some new phones apparently don't let you use geocam though) Forwarder and Wasp do show up. Seems like they update 4.5 to where actual plugins load up in that management now. While the rest of the ones that do not show up, they are available for atak to use. Interesting. I learned something new today
