Lot of people searching on Google for �How To Fix xapk Validation Failed Error�. That�s why I created this post. xapk error is same as download failed you may have not purchased this app ERROR in android games. Most of guys face this error when installing the game along with data files. Probably you downloaded a paid android application or games for free from a pirated website . I recommend you to purchase android games from Google play Store. Because if you download the game from anywhere else there is a chance to infect your android device with Malware!  This Error occurred because you did not place data folder properly in the desired place. There are two types of data files placements for the Android games,
  • Android/obb : If Particular game�s data to be placed in obb folder then you can not download data files directly from game because this method need to check license verification from Google play.
  • Android/data/: if there is a game and the downloaded website to place data in Android/data/ then it means you can download data files directly from game.

  • Use ES File Explorer File Manager to backup your android game. To do this open ES File Explorer and go to  Tools- App Manager- Long tap on the game- backup. You can find backed  up apk game file in SD card/ Backups/Apps.
  • Copy your android game data file into your computer or different folder in your SD card. You can fin the game data file in android/data pr android/obb folder. For example if you are getting xapk file validation error while installing GTA Auto 3 android game, the data folder name is �com.rockstar.gta3� . To find other games data folder name have a look at the Google play URL of the desired android game. For Grand Theft Auto: Vice City the Google play URL is https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rockstargames.gtavc. So the data folder name is com.rockstargames.gtavc.
  • After backup game apk and data files uninstall the game and delete SD data folder.
  • After completely uninstalling the game apk and data files install apk and do not open the game.
  • Now place the data folder in SD card (External)/Android/Obb/ (here). If you don�t have external SD card place it in Internal SD card/android/obb.
