I have been a Java programmer/instructor since Java was Oak (which is the development name for Java).
Where can one find how to use eclipse to sign an app for release? I have found several how to docs/web sites, but not detailed enough for a newbie to this android world.
I have a screen that comes up that wants the Alias, organizational unit, etc... what are valid values for these entries?

Is there a way to let eclipse compile always a signed app and run it on the mobile/emulator
I nearly never use debug and so always when i switch between my developing app and the app i publish i have to deinstall the app. quit nerving.
Would be way cool if there is an option to automate the signing so i always work with the same packet.
We all talk about the issues with the signed boot loader and not being able to create roms. Is anyone good even working on this? I haven't seem any Dev's even on here discussing plans. Are we all waiting around for nothing or is it being worked on?
View 13 Replies View Related1) I am developing my app in Eclipse 3.4.1 with Android (ver 1.1_r1) plugin. My app compiles and executes without errors when using the Eclipse IDE.
However, when I export my app (unsigned) using Eclipse (via {select project} >right-click>Android tools>export unsigned application package), sign it, and try to run it on the Emulator, it throws a runtime error when I try to update my sqlite database, at which time the specific error created is: SQLite error#14, unable to open database. It is able to read from the database without problems. (I have also verified that the database is: open, is not readonly, is not locked by another thread, is not in the middle of a transaction.)
I have limited experience, but this seems more like a "system" problem given that the app works OK in Eclipse IDE but then fails as an exported/signed apk. Some googling of SQLite resources revealed a similar error on a non-Android platform which was fixed by: "Set your permissions correctly on /var/tmp, or whatever directory you are using to hold temporary files".
Does Android have temporary files, and if so how does it handle permissions on temporary files? Is there a way to check or set these permissions to see if this fixes my problem here?
2) Not sure if it is related, but after I have run the exported/signed app which causes the runtime error, if I reboot the Emulator, and try to run the program using the Eclipse IDE , the program fails with the same exact error. PLUS I also noticed the following error message while the program is installing/running: 03-01 22:22:29.282: ERROR/PackageManager(53): Package com.northwestradiology has mismatched uid: 0 on disk, 10019 in settings; read messages:
I can restore the Eclipse version of my program to be able to execute without runtime errors by utilizing the -wipe-data option for the emulator. But note that if I run my signed APK using an emulator created with the -wipe-data option, it still throws the runtime error listed above...

I'm completely new to Android development (but not to programming as such). I'm following the tutorial at Android Developers and got stumped immediately.
I've installed Eclipse and the Android SDK
adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030
eclipse-standard-kepler-SR1-win32-x86_64
jdk-7u51-windows-x64.exe
I checked out cupcake branch yesterday and made the full build and sdk successfully, and I also built the ADT 0.9 with the command cupcake/development/tools/eclipse/scripts /build_ server.sh on another Linux box. Then I updated the ADT 0.9 and set new SDK on Eclipse. Then I created a simple Android project Test with Android Project Wizard, the Eclipse created project files except the R.java and then reported following errors. Seems the resources are not correctly parsed. Errors: [2009-01-21 15:07:32 - Test] W/ResourceType( 267): Unable to get buffer of resource asset file [2009-01-21 15:07:32 - Test]
View 15 Replies View RelatedFor some unknown reason when I now try to create a new Android project in Eclipse (Ganymede running on Windows) it fails to link to the android.jar in the SDK (1.0_r1). This has never happened before, and all my existing projects continue to resolve Android components just fine.
Error: "Cannot create linked resource '/.org.eclipse.jdt.core.external.folders/.link0'. The parent resource is not accessible."
I installed JavaEE, JDK, Eclipse 3.5.x (Galileo), the Android Starter SDK, and the current ADT all with no problems. However, when I try to walk through the 'Hello Android' tutorial, I bring up the New Android Project wizard, fill it in and hit 'Finish'.
After a moment, it comes back with a message saying there was a problem at path X:so and so (access denied).
Things to note:
-Running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
-Quadcore Pentium with 8GB RAM, 8TB NAS
-I am an Administrator
-I have also tried this by activating the full (hidden) Administrator profile
-I have reinstalled everything 8 or 9 times
-I have changed ownership & permissions all over the place
-I have launched eclipse in 'Run as Administrator' Mode
-I have installed Everything as 32-bit, as others have done this successfully
Eclipse creates the folder it's having a problem with, but then cannot work with the .project file it creates (access denied). It then can't save anything so there is nothing but an empty folder 'Hello_Android' on the left within Eclipse.
Anybody have any clues about what is going on-- I'm frustrated. I want to get into this, and I've looked EVERYWHERE on the net trying to crack this nut....

I followed these tutorials to set up a Hello World Android app. But when I create a new java project I can't select a build target. It just says no targets available in the target selection box. I have confirmed that I am not having the UI issue described here (http://blog.rowancrane.com/2009/12/27/eclipse-new-android-project-cant-select-build-type-target), I actually have a message in the box saying there are no targets instead of an empty box. I also am using 1920x1080 res.
I'm guessing that eclipse is just not aware of my Android Targets? I installed them in the android SDK manager and see them listed under installed packages in the Android SDK manager (1.1, 1.6, ..., 2.2)

If not now, will such a policy be enforced in the future?
View 4 Replies View Relatedwhat's the difference being "Export Signed Application Package" and "Export Unsigned Application Package"? Under 'Signing for Public Release' in the dev guide it says you must:
1. Compile the application in release mode 2. Obtain a suitable private key 3. *Sign* the application with your private key
But then it continues:
"To prepare your application for release...To export an unsigned .apk from Eclipse, right-click the project in the Package Explorer and select Android Tools > Export Unsigned Application Package."
But below this under "Compiling and signing with Eclipse ADT" it says to "To create a signed .apk, right-click the project in the Package Explorer and select Android Tools > Export Signed Application Package...When you complete the Export Wizard, you'll have a signed .apk that's ready for distribution"
Do I need my app signed or unsigned for distribution on market place?
This is not a question about how to sign an .apk file. I want to know what does signing actually means and how it is implemented.
Inside the .apk file there is META-INF folder and inside that there are two files.
First one is CERT.SF contains SHA1 hashes for various components and looks like this:
Name: res/layout/main.xml
SHA1-Digest: Cox/T8fN1X9Hv4VqjH9YKqc/MsM=
Name: AndroidManifest.xml
SHA1-Digest: wZ418H9Aix1LNch3ci7c+cHyuZc=
Name: resources.arsc
SHA1-Digest: P+uoRrpFyVW6P3Wf+4vuR2ZSuXY=
Name: classes.dex
SHA1-Digest: cN3zXtGii9zuTOkBqDTLymeMZQI=
There is also a file called CERT.RSA. I assume it is the public key to verify the signature.
My question is, where is the signature for the whole .apk file is stored? And what is actually signed? It could be either .apk file used as a single binary object and this is signed or CERT.SF is signed which contains individual hashes for different components. It would be also much better if you can point me to the documentation of the detailed signing and verification process.
My app developed on sdk 1.1 was fine to install on g1 1.1 - direct from eclipse run - as exported unsigned - as the .apk from the /bin. now i developing it on sdk 1.5 - works direct from eclipse run - DOES NOT install the exported unsigned - DOES NOT install the exported signed (not prob while signing) - only install the .apk from the /bin. when i try to manual sign the .apk from the /bin i get a zip error from jarsigner.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm using the Email application. I get a "non-trusted certificate" error when setting up mail for IMAP. This is expected because I generally self-sign my certs. Though, what is not expected is that there seems to be no mechanism to accept non-trusted server certificates. No self-sign certs? That's a deal breaker. There has got to be a work-a-round.
