View 6 RepliesI got a few apps on my sd card that may or may not be newer than the ones I already have installed. Actually there are quite a few so I don't feel like going through and checking all the version numbers of whats installed. Is there an easier way to tell if the version on my sd card is newer than what's already installed, or do I need to go through and check all my version numbers?

I wasn't able to figure out how to extract their correspondent version information.

I can't seem to find any reference to it anywhere on the phone. Whenever I try to play a Flash movie, it tells me it isn't installed and go to the Adobe site. On the Adobe site, I can't seem to work out how to download and install Flash 10.1 on my phone!

Last week I got and update alert for Google Maps. I tried to install it and got a "Install error" "Package file not signed correctly".
What's strange about it is, I already had the version it wanted me to install. Version 3.1.2. It also doesn't show up in aTrackdog but does show in apps drawer and works fine. The market shows that I don't have it installed. All other Google apps are working and show where they should. This started before the C&D order.
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 4 Replies View RelatedI just rebuilt an application to use some new assets, and now I get this message on my phone when I try to install it: "Application not installed" "UnitTests could not be installed on this phone" Anyone know what's going on? I've checked and I've definitely got "Unknown sources" ticked on the application settings. This is just a self signed application to run my unit tests on an actual phone (the emulator doesn't cut it for real testing). I tried creating a new keystore, and they didn't help. What on earth? The only thing I can think of that I've done recently is accept a google security update.If they've silently done some other updates that prevent self signed applications running, I'm severely upset.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI was getting the error "Application not installed", when I tried to download a simple application(developed by me).
Here is the process I followed:
1. I created a simple application 2. Using eclipse, I exported it as an unsigned application package. (Android Tools/Export as an unsigned application package). This resulted in a .apk file. 3. Using keytool, I generated a keystore, with which I signed the application using jarsigner. 4. Using zipalign tool, I aligned the package. 5. I linked the apk file to my website, where I can download the app.
I verified all the above processes.
When I download the app, and tried to install, it says "Application not installed".
I am not knowing what resulted in this error.
How many activities do you have? Do more than one of them declare themselves as launchable like you can see below?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have big files to integrate into my application (videos), and thus for not not that my application occupies all the internal memory of the telephones, I saw that it was possible with Froyo to install the applications on the SD card.
I thus have to test this solution and my application settles down well on the SD card, the only problem it is that the system installs all the same my files videos (which are placed in the file /raw) on the internal memory of the telephone. Thus my question it is where to place my videos or where to make so that these also settle down on the SD carde ?

I have an interesting problem I just can't seem to get through. I hung out yesterday in the IRC during office hours in hopes to find someone, but I guess the Google guys are swamped and couldn't make it.
We have an app that we have tested successfully across 10 different devices on 4 different networks without a problem. However, our app will not work on ANY Nexus One devices, tested across 4 different carriers. The work flow is like this:
1. Via the browser, visit a URL to download the apk file OTA.
2. Install app. App shows up on the device.
3. Click the icon to run the app. An error occurs saying "Application is not installed on your phone"
At this point, we can see the app is trying to run. LogCat shows the following interesting bit:

The funny thing is, I have android.permission.INTERNET use-permission in the manifest, and no other devices seem to have a problem with the permissions set there.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a way to calculate the size of an installed Android application/package. I can't find this information in neither ApplicationInfo nor PackageInfo objects. From the ApplicationInfo I can get the path for the data and the app itself. Data is a directory structure, but when attempting to read it recursivly I get a nullpointer. Is there any better way of doing it? Any sample code?
