View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write a java program that will install an apk file on android. I saw that there is an Intent action: ACTION_PACKAGE _ INSTALL, available and the developer reference says: "Broadcast Action: Trigger the download and eventual installation of a package" So I wrote a program like so:
Intent newintent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PACKAGE_INSTALL); File apkFile = new File("/data/data/HelloAndroid.apk"); newintent.setData(Uri.fromFile(apkFile)); sendBroadcast(newintent);
But this fails to do the intended task (which is download and install the application). I'm not able to figure what is happening to this broadcast intent, no logs get printed in LogCat. Any pointers on where to look or how to proceed?
I am trying to make application run just after installing it.

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?

NOTE: I DIDN'T LOSE ANY DATA AFTER THE UPGRADE, but some people might. I didn't have much installed/setup. My gmail and contacts synced up, my messages were still all there, but my home screens were different.
Okay, this is all coming from 1.5.
As far as I know, Leak Jumpers are out of luck. From what i've heard, V3 leak = Official OTA..(or pretty dang close)
First, download this OTA file:
http://android.clients.google.com/packages/desirec/OTA_Desire_C_Verizon_WWE_2.36.605.1_1.17.605.1_rel ease_0420.79112f65.zip
Rename it to update.zip and put it on the SD card in the TOP LEVEL (root) Directory. So if your SD Card comes up as the F: drive, it will be F:update.zip

View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral question for those in the "know". I'm trying to free up some space on my SD card (before I upgrade to a 32GB) and I was wondering---for apk's downloaded outside of the market..once you install that apk, can u delete the apk package file off your SD? Or will this cause problems to the overall application itself?
View 5 Replies View RelatedAnyone 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?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a small piece of code that just won't write a file to the SD card on Android I made sure I created the folder CACHE_DIR before. It exists on the SD card, but canWrite() always returns false. This is the path: /mnt/sdcard/Android/data/org.my.app/files/thumbnailcache I can browse the directory /mnt/sdcard/Android/ data/org. my.app/files/thumbnailcache. Here comes the interesting part: When I try to write to /mnt/sdcard/Test/, it succeeds.How is that possible?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI want my android application to create a .js file, which can then be read by my web view. I have read that the "assets" file is ready only so I cannot save a file to there during runtime. I am saving it in the default "/files/" directory.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am new to Android and creating my first application.I want to create a file in the current directory. Basically I have a file bundled with aplication package as raw resource. I want to make a copy of this file in the current file. The reason to create copy in current directory is that I want my file reading code in native java, portable code.So my query is how can I create a file on current directory? The location current directory is important here as I do not want to make use of device specific hardcoded path or any Android API while reading the file. This is so I want my file reading code portable.

I do not know what is cause of failing to create a new file on a sdcard of G1, the code is below:
File temp = File.createTempFile("test", ".temp", Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()); and the permission of sdcard is: d--rwxr-x.
Also fail if I try using the code below:
File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory (),"media.temp"); file.createNewFile();
Giving out about Parent directory of file is not writable.
