问题
I am working on a device based on AOSP Android 6.0 (Marshmallow).
I wanted to update standard Android webview to the latest version for using the latest JavaScript.
For this I replaced external/chromium-webview/prebuilt/arm64/webview.apk with the latest version.
Also in the frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/config.xml I changed the value of config_webViewPackageName from com.android.webview to com.google.android.webview.
But when I tried to launch some application that using webview (for example standard android browser) I got such error:

Did somebody faced such issue?
回答1:
Finally we have found that the problem was because webmusic.apk was not signed with the system signature. That's why it was not properly installed.
Steps from the question How to sign Android app with system signature? solved the issue.
