Android :: Android Market / Applications Can Be Downloaded Without Publishing?

Apr 27, 2009

Suppose you upload a paid app and you want to test if it works correctly when downloaded from Android Market - do you pay for it? Are your own apps free to you? And to download it from the market, do you have to make it visible to the whole world? I tried to upload an app, the uploader accepts it, but when I try to download it from the phone it says "package file was not signed correctly".

It's unacceptable that the uploader checks to see if a file is signed, but it somehow performs *Different* tests than what the phone actually does when it downloads apps. I hope I can debug this further without having to publish my app to test it and make my app momentarily visible to everybody.

Android :: Publishing Applications On The Android Market - Tax Implications

Aug 10, 2009

I'm a developer in the UK who wants to publish (and charge for) some applications to the Android Market. I don't have my own company, and don't know anything about tax.

What do I need to do regarding tax?

1. Should I put all (or half or any fraction of) the earnings aside until the taxman asks me for some money?

2. What about sales in the US, does the same apply?

3. Is it considered income tax?

Android :: Downloaded Applications Bigger Than What It Says On Android Market

Aug 5, 2010

Why do android applications double in size once you download them?

For example... in the Android market - Documents to Go says the application is only 3.59mb BUT once I download it and look under Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications to see what real size it is the application jumps to 8.05mb!

It seems like every single application is doing this. Why are these applications bigger than they actually are?

Android :: Publishing Android Updates To Market / How Long Till They Appear?

Nov 4, 2010

On Tuesday, I released my first app to the Android Market. Since then I found a few bugs which I have fixed and uploaded a new version.In the Developer Console, it still shows the version number as the original (v0.8.0) but the last version uploaded is different (v0.9.0).If I check the market on my phone, then the update is not even showing.How long before they show?Can I check if there are any errors with my upload process? Does a different filename for the apk matter?

Android :: Is There Way For App Whether It Has Downloaded From Market?

Apr 6, 2009

Is there a way for an application to know whether it has been downloaded from Market? I'm thinking of distributing an application through Android Market as well as through a private web site, that contains both a free basic version and a paid Pro version. For simplicity of maintenance, I would like to distribute the exactly same apk both through Market and on my web site. After the user has downloaded the free basic application, and they want to upgrade to the Pro version, they should be presented one of the following: A) Present a link to Market to pay for and download a license apk to unlock Pro features. - or - B) Present a link to our homepage to purchase a license key to unlock Pro features. If the free basic application had been downloaded from Market, the user should be presented option A, otherwise they should be presented option B. Does anyone see a way how to achieve this?

Android :: Getting List Of Market-downloaded Apps

Feb 3, 2010

Does anyone know if there's a way to retrieve a list of apps currently installed on the phone?Perhaps through an Android service, or system content provider?And once this list is retrieved, is there a way to filter down the list to only apps that have been downloaded via the market? I suppose another way to phrase that last question is:Can my app access the Downloads list that's in the Android Market app?

Android :: Detect When App Downloaded From Droid Market?

Jun 12, 2009

I have an Android library that uploads data to a test server and production server. I'd like developers using this library to use the test server when developing, and production server when the app is downloaded from Android Market.

Is this possible for an app to tell where it came from (Market or non-Market?) I would imagine one could detect the presence of the signed JAR file.

Sprint HTC Hero :: No Service - Downloaded Applications Failed

Mar 18, 2010

My Hero is going haywire. I was trying to download some apps from the market today and they don't want to start. So I rebooted my phone to see if it made any difference. Now when it starts up I get error messages that the com.android.phone and a few others are not working and have to force a close. I have no service either. All the installed apps and components are working but not phone itself. I am with Cellular South in Mississippi and my wife has a Hero also which is working normally so I know it's not a network issue.

Samsung Galaxy S :: Unable To See Downloaded / Installed Applications

Sep 13, 2010

I'm a newbie on smartfones and had spent a few days adding useful apps to my Galaxy S. File management and, file transfer applications to wireless link to my laptop followed by the transfer of all my work presentations (powerpoint) and lecture notes. All worked fine until today. Now, my device seems to have lost all the downloaded and installed apps (leaving gaps on the desktop). It has also discarded the image I had chosen for my screen background, and I can't see an icon to go to the Android store. Finally: on one of the screens I have the message "Problem loading widget". That might be connected to the problem that Android Market has completely disappeared. How do I get that back!! It's important. My transferred files are still sitting in folders in DCIM so that's good. but none of the special applications are visible. Can someone give an opinion on this. Has something taken place online with Samsung that has put my system back to its out-of-box state.

Android :: Signing And Publishing Application

Aug 26, 2010

I have my application run on development environment (eclipse - testing using device), then i do right click on my project folder - android tools - export signed application package, then i create new key store and add my information there, then it'll produce the .apk then i put it up on my own webserver (I intend to put it on my own web server and android market place as well) but then, once i try to download my .apk from my testing handset - it said:

"cannot download. the content the content is not supported on this phone"

this is weird, since i do my testing on this same handset as well. so my question are:

- what is the proper way to sign my app so it can be downloaded all the way through my own web server?
but I still can put it up on android market as well? - I have my android market account.

-is there any walk-through for it?

Well Hope someone can give me the answer, I really appreciate your help!
