Android :: Android 1.5 Installing Older Version
Dec 1, 2009
we have discovered something very strange that we're seeing with android 1.5 phones (hero and eris in particular). it seems like if you install an older version of an app over a newer version of the same app, after you reboot your phone, if you launch the app, you will get the newer version of the app!
once you are in this state, uninstalling and rebooting, and reinstalling different versions of the app will be fine until you reboot your phone. once you reboot your phone, launching the app will revert to the newer version of the app........

I'm trying to prevent the situation where an updated version of my app restores using a bundle written from a previous version of my app. In other words:
1) app v1 stops and calls onSaveInstanceState
2) app v1 saves the bundle
3) user goes to marketplace and updates the app to v2
4) user starts the v2 version of the app
5) v2 version calls onCreate passing the bundle with v1 data
Is that even possible? Do I need to worry about it?

My application is built on 2.2, but it is backwards compatible down to 1.6. I've used reflection for the newer methods. When I try to run it on an emulator in Eclipse, it only lists my 2.2 AVDs. I need to test on 1.6 to ensure compatibility. I've tried building with Android 2.2 and with Google APIs 2.2 with no luck. (what's the difference, anyway?) I have set <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="4" targetSDK="8"/> in my manifest. I also tried targetSDK="4".

So I am running an older version IC3ROM (4+ months old). When I left, Froyo was a buzz word, and leak rooting was a dream rumored to never happen. Is it time to upgrade to something new? I can't really complain about IC3ROM, as with Launcher Pro, it has been great. I don't particularly like the idea of starting over, but if there's something out there worth it, I'd give it a go. Opinions? I don't really care about Verizon's interface as I always replace it with launcher pro, but performance and stability is #1 concern.

Does anybody have a link to get an older version of Dialer One? Is there a way that I can revert back to my previous version? I updated it to Version 1.2.6, and I must say the new changes are terrible. Facebook pictures no longer sync. 2.) Calling a number after dialing is more difficult as instead of having a fairly large area to click to call, you have to exactly touch the tiny phone logo, 3.) Before I could click the bar to change from contacts, recent calls, and favorites. Now I have to swipe to go between the three. The one positive with the new upgrade is the developer fixed a bug where the dialer would always crash if you attempted to add a missed call number to your contacts. Not that works fine. But losing the other three things are enough for me to want to go back.

It is pretty easy to install. If you've installed HTC Sync it may cause an Android Debug Bridge error. If thats the case then just open task manager and close the process that starts with FCY or something like that. Once you get past that it will ask you to plug in your phone and install the software.

I've been doing a bit of research, and it seems that Samsung Kies is not meant for (or supported) for North America. Apparently, the older versions of Kies could work on our Captivates and was available to download through Samsung's Europe site. However, the newer versions of Samsung Kies can apparently detect that we've got North American Captivates and will not connect. Anybody have links to the older versions? Doesn't proprietary-ness totally defeat the reason we bought androids in the first place?

Think Google Voice was updated a few days ago. Version 0.3.0 on device. Every time on power-off/on it force closes. Uninstalled and reinstalled it, did not help. Reviewed the log file and there are some unhandled exceptions in Google Voice code. Any one else with this problem? Is there a way to reinstall an older version of Google Voice app?

I just worked my Android application with device (HTC Magic) version 1.5 and it loads properly and when i try to load the same application with the other phone by installing the .apk file of version1.5 with android version 2.1 and kernel version 2.6.29 omap1 but now i couldnt find my application getting installed on my device...
I have sent a link to view the screenshot for error http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/6411/img0981jw.jpg.
In the screenshot you can see Quadmon icon on top and it says it can not install app in Korean.
I have just followed the instructions given in this link (http://www.waxworlds.org/edam/software/android/how-to-install-an-apk-on-your-android-device) to install .apk file into my htc magic phone.
Is there any other way to get distributed my apk file into the device?

I have a rooted Droid Incredible currently running froyo (2.2) with a sky raider 2.0 ROM. I have attempted to install the PB31IMG.zip then the update.zip onto a rooted incredible then installed the sky raider ROM. I did not realize that the PB31IMG.zip did not successfully install. From what I could tell it unzips it then says that it cannot find the images. After downloading it to my PC before putting on the root of the SD card it wont let me open it and says that it is corrupt and could not create the file. However I am able to unzip it from my PC running XP. Basically My issue is that the sky raider 2.0 ROM only works with the version2 baseband and I have baseband 1.x version and cannot seem to get it updated. It is causing the wireless tether to not work and the camcorder. Sorry If i have provided too much detail or confusing. I have also tried to unroot but since it wont open the PB31IMG.zip i am unable to downgrade.

Anyone ever had this happen? Downloaded an update after the 2.1 upgrade and I sync'd my contacts with FB. It then deleted all of my contacts.So I deleted Facebook, re-stored all my contacts and reloaded Facebook. However, now it gets as far as installing and it never stops. It just stays on Installing.However, the FB app works fine on the phone itself.Is this a Market glitch? Is there anyway I can purge it from out of my downloads section?

With the SDK 1.5 it is possible to instantiate two emulators with two different devices. Could I assign a phone number to each device, such, that I could send SMS messages forth and back?

I have been building all my apps against the 1.6 version of the SDK until just recently when I switched to 2.2. I use ant to handle my builds and a normal build time for one of my apps was about 30 seconds. Now that I am building with 2.2 (that is the only change) it is taking over a minute to do the exact same thing... I was just wondering if anyone else was seeing a significant increase in the time it takes to build with 2.2.
When I make incremental changes to code in eclipse I am now noticing a "Building workspace: (xx%)" which takes a VERY long time in 2.2 compared to 1.6. I hardly every used to notice this because it was so fast. Now I notice it all the time.
I really hope that as we see additional sdk version come out that things just get slower and slower... also, I had read that with 2.2 we would see "significant" increases in performance on our existing hardware (devices). I'm definitely not.

I just sold my GW620 (LG Intouchmax) and have a little bit extra money to spare, and I was wondering, what's the best Android phone you can get for around 80 - 110 pounds?
I'm looking at the Galaxy Portal, I've already had the Dream G1 and HTC Hero G2.
I've also looked at the T-Mobile pulse.

I'm using the level 5 sdk to compile my app, but set my target to sdk level 3 in my manifest. All is fine.
I may need to use some level 5 classes (ExifInterface) though. What's the right way to go about using them while not fouling things up for devices running older sdk versions? Do we simply restrict use of the newer API methods to completely separate class files? Something like this:
CODE:.................
so as long as the api methods are completely separated into files that the older devices won't invoke, we should be ok?

I have recently updated my app to a build target of SDK version 8 in order to include the App2SD feature for my users. However I have had reports of devices on SDK 3 (1.5) having problems starting the application, with the following stack trace: If i change the build target back to version 4 as it was previously this issue goes away, also if i remove any graphical resources from my XML files this issue goes away.

Now that Flash Player is no longer being updated for older versions of Android and is completely incompatible with ICS+, couldn't browser makers simply build Flash Player into their browsers, similar to the way it was built into SkyFire for Windows Mobile a few years ago? Couldn't it be made available as an addon for Dolphin HD?

I used to be a C/C++ programmer before getting in to android. I am not sure how people maintain 2 versions of a program without using #ifdef preprocessor macros. Right now I am changing the package name in eclipse and changing the code manually, but this seems really inefficient. Can anybody suggest a good way of having 2 or more projects that share most of the code?

I'm planning on getting LockBot when I get my EVO and I was wondering, what's the difference between the free version and paid version. I basically want the Moto Droid lock screen on my EVO for the slide to toggle sound on/off feature due to the lack of an external switch on the EVO. Would I be best to get the paid version or will the free version do that?

I stupidly installed the Orange ROM update on my Tattoo and am now having the issue with it only ringing once. Is there anyway I can roll back to an older ROM? I've downloaded V 1.65.405.1 but the phone won't let me install it. I remember on an old SPV phone when I was trying to remove the Orange branding I had to unplug it when it was trying to do the ROM update which corrupted the phone and allowed me to install the unbranded ROM. I'm wondering if doing that would work but I don't wanna risk it.
