Is it possible to install an app to an Android phone from an SD card? To install it without a data connection, the marketplace, or using ADB? I've tried searching for this but no luck so far.

So I've downloaded a couple of games from Omni G Soft. I have played them on my Windows Mobile phone and love them. They are sitting on my SD card because I cannot figure out how to open them or run them. How do I run or install apps loaded on my SD card. the program App Installer wont work. I need another way. FYI - I am NO programmer.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have created a rather large game, 18 megs, and am sick of getting 1 star because of the size. Now normally I would just figure out how to do this on my own but since this is something I'm only doing because Google dropped the ball and may soon rectify,I would really appreciate it if some one would provide me with code to do the following.
1. Make an HTTP connection to a server and dowload a .zip file to the SD card. 2. Then unzip the file to a directory on the SD card. 3. Finally delete the .zip file.
Has anyone done this before? What are the gotchas? I'm sure doing this comes at a cost, such as having to insure the graphics have been downloaded, failed downloads, and if you have a future update you have to manage updating the graphics yourself, am I missing anything?
I am using the getExternalFilesDir(null) method to save to the SD card. Saving and reading from the SD card is fine. The problem I am having is that every time I edit anything in Eclipse and rerun the app the data on the SD card is deleted. I know that saving to the directory returned by getExternalFilesDir(null) will allow the files there to be deleted when my app is uninstalled but is there a way to turn it off for just app updating? Is this only cause I am doing it from Eclipse and it won't delete the data when the app is updated from the market?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been hearing that with android you cannot install apps on an SD memory card? Does that mean you have to use the onboard memory of 512mb? That wont hold many apps AT ALL. If so that is a horrible choice by HTC to not incorporate a big storage and forget about the use of an SD card.

I got the tronsmart vega s89 and I can't install purchased apps on it I get error (couldn't install on USB storage or SD card) funny thing is no first time I tried install I didn't have sd card in. I have looked for the temp file smt2 or whatever it is, its not here. This device is on kitkat and I think has a bad path to install location. Can I Change the install location? This error only happens with purchased apps NOT free ones.
View 5 Replies View Relatedmy Desire is rooted with T-Mod, but i'm looking to update from the standard 2GB(i know right?) to the biggest I can possibly find. The only thing is I'm worried about the fact that this card has been partitioned when I rooted it, am I going to have to start from scratch and re-root? Or do I just partition the new one, install the ROM on the partition (? I don't really know what I'm talking about with this), and then transfer everything over once that's done?
I was looking at classes.. I've seen class 10 SD cards but can only seem to find up to class 6 in 16GB microSD and up to class 4 in 32GB microSD... I don't think i'll need 32GB, I was only getting it because I might decide to, I don't know, listen to my entire music collection without coming home in between? I guess I was just getting 32gb because I'm kind of into "Do it once, do it right." But if it's going to slow my phone down I'll just go for a 16gb...

View 8 Replies View RelatedWhat if you need to install an apk from sdcard but you don't have a file manager installed yet.And to make things worse you don't have internet access to download it from the market!Here's what you need to do:
1. Put the apk file in the main directory of your sdcard. Rename it to something very short for easy typing. In this example, I will use "fm.apk".
2. Boot your device. Goto Security Settings and check "Unknown Sources".
3. Open your internet browser. In the address bar type "file:///sdcard/<filename>.apk". (Without the double quotes of course).In our example above it should look like this: file:///sdcard/fm.apk
4. Press "Go". That's it! Installation started!
I am getting a Dell Venue 8 Pro 32 GB and want to install Bluestacks. Given the limited storage of the Venue Pro.
1. Can you install Bluestacks on a micros card?
2. If so, I assume any apps installed in bluestacks will install on the card.
By default, internal memory call is "sdcard" and sdcard will call "ex-sdcard" , so, apps will install on "sdcard". it make internal memory get low when i install some apps with big data.Now, my sdcard is free to 3,5Gb but i can't install any app because "sdcard" is full
