I know that I am supposed to add application/vnd.android.package- archive mime type in it. However I have to access to this. I have emailed godaddy asking them to add it but I just wanted to see if anyone knows of an alternate method that I could use to allow my users to download this from my site.

I'm currently hosting an app on my own server so my beta testers can test it. I've set up the apk MIME type to be application/ vnd.android.package-archive, and when I try to download the app from the emulator, it downloads the 53KB apk file and installs it. When I try to do the same thing from a real ADP1 device, it only loads 43KB. When I try to install it, the system says that I'm trying to install an app that already exists (called "Android System") and that doesn't require any permissions, but nothing happens when I proceed. logcat tells me
"D/asset (16379): failed to open Zip archive '/ sdcard/download/[name of the app].apk'
Bonus points! When I try to download the app from the emulator, I can see that in the accesslog of my server. Not so when I download it from the device, even after deleting /sdcard/download/* and clearing the cache through the settings. Almost as if the device was loading an old copy from a proxy server. I'm not sure which APN I'm using, but none of the T-Mobile APNs have a proxy AFAICS. Is there a way to circumvent the proxy, assuming that this is the case? And/or tell the proxy not to cache this apk file?
I have a problem with downloading files from hosting sites such as rapidgator, hellshare etc. On default browser and on Google Chrome files aren't downloading at all or there is downloaded a file which has for example 26kb or so, while I am trying to download files about 400-700mb. On Opera Mobile the files are downloading, but if I will minimize the browser and start any other app, the downloading process is stopped. I am really surprised with that because a few months ago I also had HTC Desire Z and I could've download any file with the stock browser and. while downloading, check any app I wanted.
I have Asus Transformer Pad 300 with Android ICS (newest update). When I download files about 10mb everything is ok, so I assume it's the size problem or maybe file extension, but I tried the app called All files download (or something like that) which has been recommended in a similar post (but that user had SGS3) and it didn't worked either.
I've been searching for an app or a way to be able to access the shared folders of my desktop PC in my android mobile (Huawei U8650 not rooted) and my tablet (Acer A100 also not rooted).
I want to be able to watch my movies in the shared folders or read my ebooks like I do from my laptop.The PC is connected with a wifi rooter as all the rest devices. Since the laptops can access the shared files, I guess my android devices should also be able to do it... but how...?
I need to carry over the "lib/armeabi" part as well. First off, is this the correct approach for add a 3rd party .so file, and if so, can I force it to preserve the dir structure? If I'm barking up the wrong tree, what is a better way to handle this?

I'm looking for a method or an application for android tablet, which allows me to quickly reset the device deleting any data (from the Internet cache, and the cache to the photos of the various programs such as facebook, twitter etc ...) and that does not allow any modification of the operating system. I need this solution because I have a restaurant and I want to put a tablet on each table for guests to make him see the menu (full of photos and videos), surf the internet and play with the kids.
is there an app that allows this? or is there a quick way to do this, such as a multiaccount management ? I remember, for example, that for windows there are applications that completely erase any unauthorized modification, files and cache, at the time you restart the operating system.
My searches all bring back ways to transfer files using my Windows Explorer on my PC Interface via USB and on Android "Es file explorer" using wifi.
I use ES file Explorer to view shared folders on my PC via wifi. I want to do the same thing only faster through USB. Similar to how you connect the android to your pc and it shows the internal sd and external sd in windows explorer.
For example... I want to browse my vast collection of "Justin Bieber's Monkey confiscated by German customs for excessive spanking" pics on my pc to find one that looks good as my android wallpaper. I dont want to use wifi and cant load the 74GB of pics from my pc on my 8 GB SD card on my Android to go through them.
Is there an app that I can use to browse files and folders from a windows PC and copy them over to the phone?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to run .exe files for Windows (Desktop) PC on android.
I know most of you would say it's not possible, but I don't care if you say that. Everything is possible in this world. You just have to want it.
Most important reasons why it shouldn't work:
- EXEs are compiled for Windows
- CPU commands are different to the x86 processors
- WinAPI isn't available on Android
The application I want to run, will run on a couple of houndred of (Tablet) devices, a remote connection is not the way to go. The application is private, and not available on the market. There is no other application that could replace it.
Any VM for Android, or an other solution -> Performance doesn't matter!
For the beginning I want to try to run a small windows application, like notepad.exe on android devices. Besides of that there is also a way to run Win98 on Android. I havent tested it yet tho.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have done several Nandroid backups during Installation of Froyo Nightly build. complete clean phone, phone with main settings adjusted, phone with applications, etc.
All well and fine, but, unorganized as I am, I don't know anymore which is which. I believe that, If I can see a lsit of the files in each .img file, I could figure it out. How do I look into those files?
The answer to that question, at least for the data.img and system.img files, is a small tool called unyaffs. A compiled binary for windows of this file is available at http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XMGZSYOM
Put the unyaffs.exe and the file.img files in a new folder, open up a terminal window (windows-run-cmd), navigate to the folder where the files are and type: unyaffs file.img.
All the files of the image are than extracted to the folder you are in.
I just finished decompiling an apk file and fro this issue I googled it and no luck? I want to extract the assets fro this app but the .png and .jpg files are coming up as an "Invalid image" The same applies for the sound ".mp3" files that cannot be read by VLC or windows media player!

Now a strange thing is occurring. I installed an off market app, but I can only see its folder in Android's File Manager, not in Windows XP.
This is going to cause me serious problems because I need to transfer some files into that folder from my PC.
How can I access this App's folder in Win XP?
I've tried "File Manager" that comes with PC companion but whenever I click "Start" it just opens an explorer windows with the following path "C:Program FilesSony EricssonSony Ericsson PC Companion" and I never see my phone mapped as drive in windows?So how do I transfer a file to the phone (without having to to take out the SD card and place that into a USB slot via the converter (to much hassle))I'm not interested in syncing playlists or music via Media Go, I want to use the phone as a USB stick!

I am writing an app that will require a centralized database, along with a small app to digest incoming file data and populate this database.
android phone -> file -> some app somewhere -> some database somewhere
I know this is probably a fairly common situation. Is there a particular hosting service/solution for this? Many apps must do something like this (with high score tables and the like). The trick is, I can't use one of the high-score-specific hosting sites, because I need the app in front of the database to interpret the incoming files.
I've been working on my project for a while and have decided to share it's source so that I can get help from people and finish it and post it to the market (it's a highly addictive and fun card game). However, I have published it on google code at:

And when I tried to download it with a friend that can help I kept getting messages saying that it is not an android project from eclipse I'd appreciate it if somebody could tell me exactly what needs to be uploaded and what doesn't need and how can I make it work - if you have done it before - you probably can easily help Thanks! also, if you can and want to generally join the project as a developer graphics person or web designer.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am new to Android and so I may be missing some very basic things here. I am trying to host custom KML files on a server behind my firewall and display those KML files on the Android emulator. I started by writing a simple app that uses an Intent to display the overlay and pointing the app at geo:0,0?q=
http://code.google.com/apis/kml/documentation/KML_Samples.kml. This works in the emulator.
Next I downloaded that KML file and posted it on my web server (Apache 2.2 on Fedora). I added an AddType directive for the .kml extension and restarted HTTPD. When I point my simple app's Intent to my internally hosted KML file I get the error "The community map could not be displayed because it contains errors." I added some code to try and download the KML file independently of the KML so I could check the status line and the like:
final HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();
final HttpGet get = new HttpGet("http://mycompany.com/data/KML_Samples.kml");
try { final HttpResponse resp = client.execute(get);
android.util.Log.e("MapOverlays", resp.toString());
} catch (Throwable t) {
android.util.Log.e("MapOverlays", "Exception", t);
}
With a breakpoint on the first Log message line I can inspect the results:
statusline = "HTTP/1.1 200 OK"
Content-Type: application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml
Here's the Intent I'm using:
final Intent intent = new Intent(
android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("geo:0,0?q=http://mycompany.com/data/KML_Samples.kml"));
startActivity(intent);
So the two main questions are
What do I need to do to get KML loaded from a private server?
What tools are available (if any) to determine what is wrong with what I've done (something more informative than "The community map...")?
I am trying to set up a private repository of Android source code while hosting the git trees on github as private repos. I have no problem changing the manifest.xml file to point to public git trees hosted on github in the same way that CynagonMod does, but when trying to point to private repos I get the following error when trying "repo sync":
Initializing project username/android_external_webkit ...
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
error: Cannot fetch username/android_external_webkit
Where username/android_external_webkit is of course a private github repo of the same name. I understand the error occurs since I did not specify my user name and credentials to github, but I fail to see how to do it in the manifest.xml with repo.
Have anybody tried this on Dinc? Android-wired-tether - Project Hosting on Google Code
