How can i obtain appbrain and fast web installer for my apad?
Is there an installer for appbrain market for apad? Where i can download it.
I don't have this application installed on my apad.
Has anyone else tried AppBrains Fast Installer? It allows you to push install to your phone without sync (free apps only)
View 4 Replies View RelatedIf you haven't already, download the "Fast Web Installer" app to enable automatic download and installation of apps to your phone from the AppBrain site while on your PC. So awesome now to just browse the AppBrain site, click install on all the apps you want, and walk out the door with them automatically downloading and installing. Only works for free apps but that's not a huge problem (it beats waiting for Froyo to enable this feature that's for sure). If you don't use AppBrain, now is a good reason to try it out.

Here's a link to what I read:

QUESTION: does the Fast Web Install still work with earlier versions of AppBrain?? I have kept v4.8 installed on my phone but I'm having a problem with the Fast Web Install. I'm not sure if I'm experiencing a temporary issue or if the Market update is affecting ALL versions of the Appbrain fast web push?
I need to make an installer which will ask for T&C and install the App . But i am not able to find any tutorial related to the same .

Because if I would need to install APKs in a situation where I don't have access to the market (No Internet access, etc.) I would need to use Astro File Manager and if I didn't have it installed I would need a way to install it without using the standard way of using the market.it would save me bandwidth to install it from the SD Card each time.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI have some problem installing my apk file in code. Wondering if anyone could find out what I did wrong.
What I was trying to do is put a Check Upgrade function in our program. When user clicks it, it will send request to our web server and find out what is the latest version. I use app versionName to stamp a version, something like 2010.11.23. I don't use the version code in Manifest.xml file. So our program sees the latest VersionName is later than itself, it will download the latest one, and then use the following code to install the new apk file:
CODE:........
Now looks like, everytime when I changed the VersionName, it will fail to install the apk file. It downloads the file fine. I don't know exactly why. Sometimes, in Eclips, when I hit debug, I got error saying "Re-installation failed due to different application signatures". I don't know if this is the same error caused the installation failed.
So, looks like my questions are:
Should that upgrade logic work? I am wondering if it has something to do with the VersoinName.
What could cause the application signature change? (I did sign our program before I put it on our server, but I always use the same key file for different versionName. )
Currently using the above phone. Have activited wireless on my phone and internet is working fine. Tried to install appbrain on my phone - AppBrain - the best Android apps and games on the Android market. everytime I try to install it says "starting download" but nothing further happens.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI believe the 'Package Installer' is the thing that allows me to install apps?
I've only just noticed it in my 'manage applications' - I'm sure it never used to appear at the top of the list - and I'm tight on memory - so when it takes up 13mb as it does now I'm a bit stuck.
Can I click 'clear data' on it - or will that remove apps? There is no option to clear cache - all 13mb is listed in the Data.

Is there any way of installing an app through any other means than clicking on the .apk file in the folder?
Would it be possible to manually extract the apk archive and move the files to appropriate folders somewhere in /root/?
Can you install the appBrain app on the Captivate?
View 4 Replies View RelatedSo I just did a factory reset and made sure I backed everything up, etc. One of the first things I did was install AppBrain so I could reinstall all of my apps.
When I open AppBrain on my phone, none of my apps show up to install. I keep hitting sync and it doesn't bring up anything. I logged into my AppBrain account on their website and all of my apps show up and next to all of them it says "Cancel install".
Is there any way I can install all of the apps from the website? I would hate to have to download and install each app separately.
I am trying to get my apps back after I got a replacement DX. I installed all of my apps with appbrain. I thought I could just re-sign in and hit sync, but it's not working. How do I re install my apps from appbrain?

Anyhow - I need to know if there is some way to push data to the phone from a server. I'd prefer to avoid using SMS to push (user charges), or constantly polling the server (lets see, every 5 seconds = 12 times a minute, 720 times an hour, over 17000 a day)

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen you scan a qr code, the Dx auto downloads the application installer and executes it. Is there a way (possibly on the pc instead) to just download the app installer, and archive it for later use? I'm thinking about things like fancy widgets, that had to be removed, updated apps that are not as attractive as the original release, or applictions that might just vanish over time. They are all small, and I'd prefer to archive them on our PC, just in case. Is there a way to pull the installers off the internal memory of the phone?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI developed an "heavy" application (700 Mb !). With an "apk installer" application, i can install it on the Nexus One SD card (Froyo "installLocation" option). My application is heavy because of the videos it contains (located in /raw directory). The problem I have, is that it crashes when launched, with this error :
CODE:............
I dont't understand the reason of this error, because when i try the same thing with a lighter application (250 Mb) it runs perfectly. Has anyone of you ever had this kind of problem ? Do you know if there is a size limit for applications to work ?
In Windows, we write "installer script", and user an "installer compiler" to generate an installer, let's say .inf for .msi/.cab and .nsi for NSIS.
But when it comes to Android, is there a similar method?
When providing a user on a mobile, a link to an android application via a web page, it is possible for params from the url to be passed to the app being installed.
I'm guessing the answer is no - but it doesn't help to ask.
The reasoning being that it would be handy for some situations to have a generic app that pulls config information from the referrer.
The package installer looks to take up a good amount of space when installing applications. We've published a very large game (ProjectINF - 6mb). And it looks to be taking up a good amount of space during the install process, to the point that we have a lot of users emailing us with complaints/requests to "fix it".
From what we've seen, it looks to take about 22mb of free space to install a 6mb apk. While I can imagine taking double or so for unpacking and temp locations, almost 4x the size seems a bit high. After an install with 22mb free, the device has 16mb free (which makes perfect sense). Users also seem to be getting errors on the market when trying to install with less than that amount of space (with no real clear error message, just "Install Failed".
Couple of really big issues here that SHOULD be no brainers! But, they aren't. Anyone know what the EXACT name of an application installer on the Market that allows me to install appliations from the memory card? I've been looking for a few weeks now. A search for application installers that allow me to install a .apk file from the memory card turn up mentions about "Apps Installer" and "Application Installer", but I can't find anything with that name in the Android Market. Partial name searches like "Installer" turn up NO results. (That's not very "Google Like", now isn't it? The Android Market website, BTW doesn't allow you to search? Is that right? You can only search the Android Market from the phone? I can understand not allowing us to DOWNLOAD from the market to our PC, but not search so I can find the appliation name I want?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am facing problem in making installer in android.
Is there any solution in android.
I plan to make some tasks like DEX file optimization be processed by installd on the background asynchronously, thus installd needs to notify the Installer of the result at some uncertain point when the request has been processed. Currently, a socket connection will be established each time when Installer sends request to installd and the connection will be closed when it returns. Thus I plan to hold another persistent socket connection for the backwards notification. Then whenever a request has been processed, installd can notify Installer through the persist socket.
Is there any other way to implement this?
