Android :: How Do I Distribute App To Beta Tester Without Using Market?
Apr 14, 2010
I have an early version of my app that I want some testers to take a look at. But I am not ready to put it on Market. How do I distribute it to my testers and how do they install it on their phones. One of the beta testers has a Asus eeePC with Android 2.0 installed and I would like him to try it too.

Does the android market support distribution of content packages? Is there any way a dependency structure can be created so that to obtain a content package for the app depends on the app to be installed as well?

We are planning on this strategy to distribute our application to clients. We would like to get your your thoughts, if you have done something similar, in terms of whether we are missing something. We have tested this approach and it works.We want to distribute our application to our clients without putting it on the market as we do not want every one to download it. We want our clients to be able to easily get future upgrades to the application. Here is how we are planning to do this:
1. export the apk file using the Eclipse wizard.
2. put this apk file on a website. The user will be able to go to this website on the browser on the phone and install the 1st version of the app.
3. next versions of the app will have an incremented android:versionCode, and android:versionName in the manifest. A button in the settings will point to a link which will have the next version of the app. So to upgrade the user will click on this settings button and download the next version and click on the apk file to replace the old version.All subsequent versions of the app will be signed by the same certificate using the export wizard in Eclipse

this question is now obsolete, as Android Market includes much more countries and such services as PayPal Mobile Payments Library are available.I'd like to sell my Android application, but I live in Poland and in my country* Android Market supports only free apps (we cannot sell and we cannot buy too).What is the best way to sell application in such situation? I can accept PayPal money transfers, but I don't know how to distribute APK package without exposing it to getting pirated. Did someone tried it already and succeeded? you may be surprised, paid apps are supported only in 12 countries worldwide.

Was formerly using Swype and loved it, but this new keyboard is legit! It practically reads your mind and predicts the next word for you before you even start typing it. Not sure if I'm going to stick with it yet, but definitely going to give it a dry run for a bit.

I have a $300 iPhone app that I might like to port to Android.It is for a very narrow set of users, so no matter how low I make the price, I will never sell very many.But for those few users, it is definitely worth it, as evidenced by my iPhone sales.So the $300 price point is necessary. However I have heard that the Google Android Market puts a limit of $200 on apps.I have also heard that it is possible to distribute apps independently of the Market, in which case I suppose I could charge as much as I wanted. But then I would have to devise my own licensing scheme.Are these assumptions right?

I am developing an Android application for a customer. I want to be able to provide them (no one else) incremental updates but I am not clear what the procedure should be.I don't want them to have to install development tools or root their phone. These are non technical folks who would have no idea how to accomplish root a phone or use a command line interface.When I develop iPhone applications for them this was easy. They just give me the device UDID and I send them a binary that can be drag and dropped into iTunes.How is this done on Android. I have tried loading the application from a web server but the devices says it is not allowed to be loaded because of security reasons. In setting->Applications there is no menu option to "Allow Unknown sources".

I have developed some reusable android component which is basically a class . This class has some resource dependencies e.g. some png drawables, some xml layouts etc. So this class referenced the auto-generated R file.I would like to distribute this code in a single package like jar file to other developers for use in their applications.I have read that the only possible solution is to distribute code together with all my resources, which others have to copy to their "res" folder (source).So I created a jar file having the class file (say MyClass which is in the package com.xyz.android.app) and resources and tried to use this in my new application.So I added the jar file to my new applications build path using add external jars option in eclipse and copied all the resources to my new application's res folder. (The activity class say MainActivity of my new application is in com.abc.myapplication package, just for the case if it may helpful)
But when I run this new application there is java.lang.ClassCastException in the MyClass class. I tried to debug the application and then I found that in the MyClass class, there is "R cannot be resolved" problem. Then I changed MainActivity's package to com.xyz.android.app (which is not the way, other developers will be happy to do), But again the same problem.But When I just copy the source java file such that both Main Activity.java and MyClass.java are in com.xyz.android.app package then application runs fine.So if I need to distribute such that other users need not to bother these package naming things,how can I accomplish this?

I have a linear layout (oriented horizontally) that contains 3 buttons. I want the 3 buttons to have a fixed width and be evenly distributed across the width of the linear layout.I can manage this by setting the gravity of the linear layout to center and then adjusting the padding of the buttons, but this works for a fixed width and won't work for changing devices or orientations.
<Linear Layout android:id="@+id/LinearLayout01"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:gravity="center">
Button
android:id="@+id/btnOne"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:width="120dip"></Button><Button
android:id="@+id/btnTwo"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:width="120dip"></Button>Button
android:id="@+id/btnThree"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:width="120dip"></Button></Linear Layout>

I am trying to figure out why my app forces close immediately on a nexus one (recurring comment which is dragging my rating down). Ironically, I heard a rumor that if I had just a half star more (up to 3.5 from 3), I would qualify to get a free nexus one from google. If anybody has a nexus one and can connect it up to get the logcat dump of the stack trace of the error. You can find my app by searching for "Compass Ball" on the market.

thinkbroadband.com have made available an android speed tester. I always thought my mobile broadband speeds were bad: now I have confirmation. Both upload and download were 0.02mbps. (My wifi speed was, as I expected, my normal 9mbps.) Mobile broadband is really poor - hardly usable.

I've recently published a new release of my compass "DGT Compass" but unfortunately. I'm receiving some negative feedback from Droid owners. Not very useful those feedbacks just saying "it doesn't work on Droid!". I would appreciate more details from some Droid tester.

I am looking for an app, that makes the touches visible.
I do not mean a Touch-Test App, but one that creates an Overlay and displays the touches, with variable graphics.
Something like that, what can be activated in the developer options but with variable Graphics, not such a simple circle.

Does anyone know of an app that can test what frequencies are being used in the area? I'm trying to figure out if something is interfering with my wireless router, and if so what it is. I've got "WiFi analyzer", but that doesn't show anything other than wireless signals directly from routers, even though a cordless phone runs on the same basic frequency.
In other words, I'd like to find an app that shows what frequencies are present near my phone, including what my phone is putting out. Is that possible?

If you've been waiting for audible to hit android like I have, then I have some good news if you subscribe to the US audible site.Unfortunately, it only supports the american site so far, but apparently the other sites are coming soon. I'm still downloading a book atm, but from what I've seen, the app is pretty sweet.

First of all, I swear I did a search, but I can't come up with an answer. I am using the Vlingo in car beta, and it actually listens to me most of the time. The only thing I can't do is get it to answer a call. I thought you could say "answer" and the call would pick up. Am I wrong? Is it because I'm still running 2.1 (Tmo Vibrant)? Does this work in 2.2? Any tips you have would be appreciated.
