HTC EVO 4G :: How To Install Android SDK
Jun 3, 2010
How to install Android SDK on your Windows 7 Computer.I followed this excellent guide to install Android SDK on my computer, but the guide assumes a lot of things and it didn't go into the detail I needed. After 2 days of struggling I was finally able to get it working. Hopefully you can learn from the pitfalls I went through and it won't be nearly as challenging for you to install.My instructions are going to be basic and over simplified - sort of like SDK for Dummies. The reason I'm saying this is for installing on a Windows 7 computer is because the screen shots and the information that follows will be from Windows 7. The guide that I followed and linked above had instructions based on Windows XP.

Followed the instructions in http://developer.android.com/sdk/adding-components.html for adding 2.0 as components to an existing 1.6 SDK, from within Eclipse.
It didn't work. Not by a long shot. Instead, it got partway through and then said that C:android-sdk-windows-1.6_r1 tempDocPackage.new01 couldn't be copied because of a lock, and similarly for PlatformPackage.new01.
It said to shut down running programs, but the only program running was Eclipse, which was needed to do the upgrade.
The cancel button was disabled, and the close box didn't work. Shutting down Eclipse killed it, but left C:android-sdk-windows-1.6_r1 in a corrupted state. Restarting Eclipse showed the Android projects with errors, no SDK, and a disabled Android SDK and AVD Manager (which means no ability to rerun the install).
Shutting down Eclipse, renaming the corrupted SDK directory, unzipping 1.6 again into C:, and restarting Eclipse made it as if nothing had ever happened, which is good. But it is not possible to complete the install from Eclipse, which is bad.
The dialog says:
CODE:..............

When I run my application on a physical phone from within Eclipse, my Google MapView works perfectly. If export the app to an apk file and install it to the same phone from the command line with adb then the MapView comes up but shows only the Google logo and grid - no map tiles appear. I'm using a debug application key and a GMaps API key generated with that debug key. I've verified that this happens on both the Droid and N1 phones. The logcat looks identical in both the working and non-working cases - no obvious error messages.

Yes we have threads about this already but we still have not gotten an answer AND I think it's about time somebody at least explain what does this number actually MEAN. I'm getting frustrated with the lack of transparency on this.
My apps used to be around 56% active installs
VERY soon after I updated the apps to allow install to SDCARD (preferExternal), then the active install count started dropping like a rock. Now it's around 39% today for my main app.
My opinion is there is a bug in the SDCARD install feature somewhere that is not counting those installs. We know there already is a bug with home screen icons if you install to sdcard you will get a blank icon until the Home app restarts.

So the other day I went to download an app out of the market. The download finished, but it seems my phone decided to auto-reboot itself in the midst of the installation. After the reboot completes, I go back to the market, reselect the app, and it's hung at "Installing..." (And when I say "hung," the market is still fully functional except that one app). I'm given no option to cancel the installation. Killing the market app then trying to go back in has no effect - same deal. Hung on install. Another reboot didn't help.
Is there any way to delete the install package and make the market forget I even tried in the first place?
It's Angry Birds (wanted to see what all the fuss was about), but the install seems to have failed in a way that any app install could have failed.

I tried updating both Fruit Ninja and Angry Birds on Friday. I had all kinds of trouble getting them installed, still haven't been able to get them installed. I had both installed prior to Friday. So in trying to troubleshoot things on friday one of the things I did was uninstall the app to try to reinstall. It did not work. Fast forward to Saturday when the Dolphin browser app update was released. I updated and had the same problem as FN and AB. Trying to think about possible causes, I wondered if using SDMOVE to move the app to the SD card was causing problems. So, I moved Dolphin browser back to my phone and retried the update. What do you know, it worked successfully. Now, I am stuck and don't know what to do with FN and AB though, becasue since I uninstalled them I don't have anythign to move back to the phone and I still can't get them installed. I tried looking at my SD card for any left over files from either game and couldn't find anything.

I've got a Problem. I am working on a Project where I am using a Programm on the PC to handle different data (which another programm = my android app creates), which i found on the plugged in sd-card of the android device.My aim is now to use the programm on the Computer to install the Android App on the Android Device. In other words: My PC-Programm copies the .apk to the sd card of the Android Device via USB. But how can i install it now? I would be awesome if, after the copy-process has finished the app installs automatically.

Some of the apps are not available in market for various reasons (e.g., swype, brut google maps, etc). However, they are widely available on sharing sites (hotfile, rapidshare, etc). The question: How can we ensure safety when installing apk from unofficial sources? What preliminary things can be done to ensure the app has not been tinkered?

Today I tried to install my app with the the apk created with the 1.5 sdk and I keep getting "install unsuccessful."It worked fine under the 1.1 sdk.The only thing I can think would cause a problem is the new "minsdkversion" which I have tried values 1 and 2 (my g1 has US rc33).The 1.5 sdk emulator has no problem installing my app.

I have an Evo 4G and I'm eventually trying to root it (the right way). I'm trying to install the SDK (for Windows XP) and I'm having an issue. I installed the Sun Java JRE, HTC Sync and I downloaded the SDK. I re-booted my PC, then enabled USB debugging on my Evo and plugged it in to a high speed USB port and then let Windows find the drivers. Now I did a test to make sure the SDK was installed correctly. I went to "android-sdk/tools", then opened a command prompt and entered "adb devices" to make sure that I can see the device's serial number...but I keep getting this...'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file".
I keep getting this error message even after I prompt to the tools directory. I tried re-installing drivers, I tried deleting and re-installing all software and nothing seems to do the trick. I still keep getting "...is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file".

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.

I've already tried to get the cert by visiting the url (but apparently my web browser already trusts the cert) so I'm not sure how to get a copy of it to add to my cacert/jssecacert which seems to be the only solution I can find on the internet. I've tried running the android sdk and avd manager from inside eclipse and from the command line no dice same problem both times.

adb install [-l] [-r] [-s]- push this package file to the device and install it ('-l' means forward-lock the app) ('-r' means reinstall the app, keeping its data)('-s' means install on SD card instead of internal storage)
How to use the last option that is install apk on sdcard.

I am trying to install apk's in my new htc magic I had before a G1 and I didn't found any problem, just doing adb install myapp.apk and that's it now, when I do the same with my htc, it says "error: device not found" Also, I noticed that if I type "adb devices", I dont get any device shown...I have also done the following settings in the mobile, with no luck: settings->applications->unknown sources (checked) settings->applications->development->usb debugging (checked) settings->applications->development->allow mock locations (checked) I know that is not a problem with the usb cable, as I have tried a few of them, including the one that was working with the G1... It could be a problem with the usb drivers, but everything seems fine in my device manager.

I want to create an application which will be able to install another one. Actually a server will send me the .apk file. Then I want my application installing this .apk file and running it. This activity will be a kind of 'script' for installing and running a new apk file.

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?

I am wondering where the installer installs apps at? I want to make sure since after reading comments on some apps when you use built in program it doesn't do all of the program - mainly just the update.
