Hi, I know the word *"different" *is little bit controversial in the title because I am using same package name in both applications but both applications have different signing certificates. I know that package name has to be different if I want them to be treated different.
What I am not able to figure out is that why android assigns same UID to another application if it has the same package name of prior application but signed from different certificate. Is there any role certificates plays in the assignment of UID to application. If not then this will result in a security flaw because a hacker can see the secret items from keystore of an application if he install his malware application with same package name even if it is signed from different certificate (Installation of malware application requires deletion of actual app).
