Install an unsigned zip file in Android

If you have got hold of a zip file, that is unsigned and you are problems installing it, there is an easy way out.
However,your device should be rooted, to do this.

1) Go to Settings > Developer Options and enable it, if not done earlier.
2) Enable "Allow mock locations".
3) Boot into recovery mode, and try installing the unsigned zip file
4) If the above still does not work, go to recovery mode again and select "toggle signature verification"
5) Select yes to above selection
6) Install the zip without signature verification.

Note: In case you are not able to see "Developer options" on your phone, check here.

Do let me know in case you have any issues.
