Android :: Programmatically Install Files On Device
Jul 22, 2010
Let's say I have 2 files on Desktop: (Note that I have another file than .apk application.)
.apk file
.zip file (wich contains a large of data that .apk must unizp and do some work with it).
I want to plug an Android device and programmatically copy these both files to Android.
The application must be visible to user and the .zip file must be "visible" to the application, wich will unzip it and do some work with it.
With PalmOS, I use HotSync API. With WinMobile I use ActiveSync (rapi) API. How to do it on Android?

I was hoping to write a service on Android that would list all applications installed as per previous post.Then, It would decide to update automatically some apps and install others. Is there any class on the SDK that has this kind of functionality? That is, can I call some API or code to install an application on the phone? Can I force some updates as well?

How can I programmatically install an apk file ?
I've foud that the PackageManager.installPackage(...) method was used to do that, but is no longer supported (http://developer.android.com/ sdk/api_diff/4/changes/android.content.pm.PackageManager.html)

How do you determine (programatically) if an Android device is: rooted Running a cracked copy of your software or rom. I have some sensitive information in my database, and I would like to encrypt it when the phone is rooted aka the user has access to the database. How do I detect that?

My app seldom needs to put the device (or screen) to sleep. That is - programmatically imitate user pressing on red stop-call button. According to docs PowerManager.goToSleep() does just that, but requires android.permission.DEVICE_POWER, which is never granted to apps!
(A) What on earth should I do to get this working?
(B) How can I programmatically wake up the device.
just to clarify - I'm not interested in a wake lock solution.

Is there any way to determine programmatically the time at which an Android application was installed? I don't see anything in PackageInfo, etc.
--EDIT--
To clarify, App A is installed at Time X. At some later time, Time Y, App B is installed. Is there any way App B can know when App A was installed? The link http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2831333/how-to-get-app-install-time-from-android/2920310#2920310 indicates that reading the modify time on the source dir of the App is sufficient. Is this really correct? Why?

Is it possible to programmatically disable and enable the led indicator light on an Android device? I am not referring to just turning it on and off as in a notification. I did not see anything in the api that would do so. I am guessing this is hardware specific if it is possible at all.

Understanding how incredibly dangerous this question is, I'd like to know if it is possible to programmatically issue a factory reset, as available in Droid and G1. Does anyone know how this is implemented? Is this implemented using the standard Android SDK, a Motorola-specific function, or something else?

In terms of efficiency, is it better to use arrays programmatically or through calls to xml files.
I'd prefer to use xmls for organisational reasons, but is there much of a performance hit.

I have made a little application pushed in /system/app with adb qui connect to a server and sometime download apk for updating/installing apk on the device.
My application is a kind of "updater". I alreay can : install new apk
But I can't update an apk which is already installed in /system/app/
I don't know why, but the update is in /data/app/my-update-1.apk
The application use the new version but, if i reboot the device (a Tao3530 tsunami board), the apk in /data/app/ is deleted and the old /system/app/original.apk version used.
How could i update an /system/app apk ? (without using ADb of course). If i need to use SU command (to push from download folder to /system/app, how could i root the board ?*

I've published an app today mainly for my forum users to use, just a very simple app that displays wallpapers derived from the forum.
Problem I'm having is one guy says it doesn't appear in the market, and I've even sent him the APK to install manually but it fails.
My minimum SDK version is 4, I created it with the 1.6 SDK specified so not sure why he can't see it or install it. He has a 1.6 Magic handset.
So just wondering if anyone has any ideas, the app is called bocn wallpaper, it uses internet and set-wallpaper permissions.. but I wouldn't have thought the permissions were the problem...

I am developing application using Eclipse. My friend has HTC Hero and I am trying to run my application on it, but it says that the application could not be installed. I did the steps which are described in Android DevGuide. I.e. exported my app with the generated key. Am i right assuming that this is enough? As i understand eclipse signs and aligns application automatically when selecting Export.

As long as I have the requisite SDK files and a terminal on an Android device, or if I'm doing this programmatically in an app I'd develop, can I use adb to push a file from one device to another that's connected via USB? The devices will be a Nexus 4 and probably a Nexus 7. The N7 would be the sender, fwiw. I'm hoping that it's not required that the device executing the adb push commands be a computer as opposed to a mobile device.
I'm assuming that I can find a cable that's micro USB (if that's what it's called) at both ends to connect the two devices.
Is it possible to do the same thing via a Bluetooth connection? Or can adb only recognize a device connected via USB?

I have an issue with installing an apk of size 72 MB onto devices like Samsung Galaxy i7500 and Nexus One. The entire size of the application is 256 MB. The devices have enough memory say 600MB on samsung galaxy. But still it does not install saying there is insufficient storage. Do the apk file gets uncompressed to the size of application after installing. I mean if I am installing this 72 MB apk does it take 256 MB space of application. Does it work somewhat like a .zip file? Please give me a solution as to why even after having enough memory I cant install the apk?

I"m running Win XP 32 bit, SP3. I have Nexus one device. and I develop on Eclipse. I'm trying to install my app to test it on a real device - my own Nexus one. after downloading and installing the USB driver - the devices charges just fine. after I mount the USB storage (from the device) I can even see the phone's file system from the computer (thus able to move files in and out of the SD card). however - "adb devices" command returns an empty list. also, Eclipse "Device Chooser" doesn't show the device (it shows emulators I previously configured).
