I am facing this problem so many times,
I used to send the apk files through mail to my clients for reviewing.
Sometimes , they are telling that the new attached one has not get any updates , it remains same.
Even i did updates in that and, i have chacked it by uninstalling the older application and downloaded the attachment , So it was working fine with updates in myside.
I asked them to do same. But for them it wasn't.
So please give some idea,
Is there any better way to share the apk files?
Are they need to clean some other folders in their mobile, like "temp and cache" in PC?.
Or I missed somewhere in the Updated builds?
Please it is very difficult one for me to face always.
Thanks in advance.
hmm.. instead of sending the .apk file to them through email, why not upload your .apk file to a server or website folder and let them install from there using their phone / device.
in android, you can install apk files from the internet right :)
that way, you can just send them the link of the updated version of your app.
Maybe the problem there is your apk sent to their computers, is either not really saved / not overwritten. in case the .apk file has same filename.
you can try to change file name also

i need to format and reinstall my macbook air.
my android keystore is located on my hardrive.
what is the best way to preserve it?
last time i tried putting it on a portable hard drive made it corrupted.
is it even possible?
You can store the *.keystore file wherever you want. I have both stored this in dropbox, and also mailed the file to myself (using GMail). There is nothing OS specific about this file, and it can be saved anywhere without issue.
To be clear, you can store it on a portable hard-drive, so something else must have caused your previous issue.
Mine has been on my Dropbox for years, and never had any issues. I switch between Mac OS X and Windows all the time.
In my app I download some files in /data/data/com.myapp.myappandroid/files. The problem is that when I debug with Genymotion and restart the app, /data/data/com.myapp.myappandroid/files is cleaned and I have to download the files again. Is there a way to set Genymotion to not delete the files in /data/data/com.myapp.myappandroid/files?
Thank you
This should not happen.
When you creates a private file it should not be deleted until you delete it yourself or you uninstall the app explicitly.
So I advise you to verify that the deletion is not done by mistake. And if you don't solve your problem, please give a precise list of manipulation to reproduce the problem.
I submited an .apk file to the Android app store yesterday, and now submitted another one.
It created a second apk file which I activated and then I de-activated the previous one.
Is that the right procedure? Now I have 2 apk files showing up. Is that what is supposed to happen? Or is one supposed to delete the previous file?
Thanks!
Well it seems to be the right and only way to do it, because google dont seem to allow deleting files only to unpublish them. Perhaps to guarantee that free apps can not be sold..
See this from 2010, probably stil valid because I can't find any delete button either.
how to Delete published application from my android market account?
Ok so I want to learn android push notifications. I found at android to use the C2DM service.

My problem is I don't know what to do with the file after I download it. :P
It is an .apk file. So how do I open it in eclipse to learn from it?
An apk is an android install app thingy you run it on your phone. To edit search android code examples and select the first one select what you want to edit dowbload the manifest and the other files and edit them in eclipse. Have you ever tried opening a .exe in notepad it does not work so well because it is already compiled same (i think) with the. Apk also make sure you have the android plugib for exlipse. Sorry for the strange language I am a delvoper who forgets the name of everything. And the grammer i am only 13.
Rename it to .zip and you can open it with your favorite zip unarchiving program.
I'm trying to download an apk file that I've signed and exported using the Android wizard in Eclipse in the release mode. I've hosted it on IIS with and set the MIME types as .apk and application/vnd.android.package-archive. I try to open this file on a test Android tablet that I have with me and the download is stuck on 0.00B / 0.00B with filename as <Unknown> and options to pause or cancel downloads.
It's not giving me any errors, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Has anyone encountered a similar situation before?
Thanks,
Teja.
Turns out having a self signed (untrusted) certificate for the server you've hosted your app at can cause the problem. Changing servers to one that has the right certificate let me download the app fine.
I'm sure there's a browser setting somewhere that lets you download files from untrusted servers, if anyone can point that out, I'd gladly mark that as the answer.
