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.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIs 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?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am wondering if I am able to detect if my application was installed with Android Market (it's in the download list of the Market and eligible for update checks) or it's not?It would be a very good point to detect if the app has been installed without, as that can mean it was stolen and installed from SDcard.

View 6 Replies View RelatedDoes 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?

When I upload the theme to the android market and then its downloaded from the market and installed it installs as a .zip file instead of an .apk file. I have several other themes that are working fine. I have tried rebuilding it from scratch and the issue is still there. I have attached the android manifest.xml for reference.

View 13 Replies View RelatedI'm referring to the "Downloads" tab in the Market app.
I've been noticing of late that it isn't listing the apps that I have been downloaded thus far. It displays one/two/three items that 've been downloaded (no specific time line, either). Furthermore, sometimes, it also tends to display an app which has already been removed.
I can purchase music in the new Market tab, but even when it shows up as purchased I can't find it in PowerAMP. I don't want to use Google's music app because it's sorely lacking in comparison, and I'm really hoping it's not downloading to the "cloud" or whatever because I want it on my phone. I also don't want to have to sync my music every single time I buy something, or have music syncing on all the time because that would drain my battery faster.
I would think it would work like an app - you buy, it downloads. That seems logical. But it doesn't seem to be working like that.
I downloaded some apps from Market. They all downloaded successfully but I cannot see them when i go to Menu and then click on the 'App' Icon. When i click on the 'App' Icon it says 'To add widgets open the vodafone shop and download your widgets' I already have the apps installed on the phone for sure, just need the shortcuts to appear under the 'App' button.
View 8 Replies View RelatedMy internal memory is almost full (no surprise) so I was hoping for a way to move my downloaded market apps to the SD card. I was told to try AppMonster, which has an option to Backup to SD. I do this and it says it's successful but my internal memory isn't going down. Does this just copy the files there as opposed to move them there? If so, is the another way/app to move the files?
View 1 Replies View RelatedToday i have been having some fun today downloading and yes buying (!) apps from the mkt. well, i started getting a little instability - i couldn't get an IP from my wireless router --- i had d/l "wifi keep alive" and "wifi reconnect" and "wifi reassociation". so i went to the mkt intending to uninstall one by one until i restored my ability to DHCP to the router. selecting the "downloads" section of the mkt revealed only about two pages worth of apps. believe me - i have a LOT more apps than that! mostly all the apps that appear are purchased apps (one exception - gmail is there too) - but even then, not "all" of my purchased apps are there! in doing my due dilligence checking to see if anyone else had this problem and solved it, i found this thread and this thread - neither of which have anything to say to help me. ANY idea how to get my apps to show up in the mkt? the apps themselves ARE STILL ON MY hero, they just don't appear in the mkt)

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhy 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?
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.
Is there any way I can extract the .apk for an app I downloaded and installed from the market? So I can store the .apk on my PC

View 9 Replies View RelatedRight now all I am trying to do is detect when the screen is pressed and then display a log message to confirm it happened. My code so far is modified off of the CameraPreview sample code (it will eventually take a picture) so the bulk of the code is in a class that extends SurfaceView. API for the example code from the SDK is 7.

Is it possible to detect all touch events in an Activity and capture it and then in return pass that pass event to another View. For example:
Button 1 and Button 2. When Button 1 is pressed I want to capture that touch/click event and automatically pass that touch event to Button 2, basically with one touch/press you get the click generated and that same click is passed on to the second button automatically.
