I developed an Android application on Eclipse, and now I am trying to port it to BlackBerry. I have my signing keys and my certificates, the Eclipse BlackBerry plugin, and the BlackBerry Tablet simulator.
When Eclipse uploads my app to the Playbook simulator, it opens the app but an "Initializing, please wait..." message comes up. After a couple minutes of just sitting there, it exits and goes back to the home screen, where the app is CLEARLY installed. Eclipse gets stuck at 70% of uploading the app. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
Have you tried installing using
"c:\Program Files\Research In Motion\blackberry-tablet-sdk-1.1.1\bin\blackberry-deploy.bat"? Maybe you'll see more information there
Have you tried telnet or SSH to the device and looking at the /apps?

I created a simple Xamarin ANDROID App. I set up my phone to development mode and deployed my app to the phone via USB.
The app continues to work on the phone as a regular app.
I then created a Xamarin MOBILE App which was more complex. I deployed it to my android phone via Visual Studio debug mode as with my previous app and it ran perfectly. But when I attempt to run the app directly from my phone, it won’t run. The first screen partially loads without anything on it and then disappears. My phone puts a message up saying that my app keeps stopping and would I like to close the app. I make use of a file placed in Assets. Might this be an issue when not debugging from the computer?
Might there be a difference between deploying a xamarin android app and a xamarin mobile app.
A minor thing is that it has added the name ‘.droid’ to the name of my app which I would like to get rid of.
I am new to deploying apps to a phone
I have solved it thanks to your helpful prompts.
I looked at the error logs and the error was ‘FATAL’ in a mono dll. This was indirectly helpful in that I knew it wasn’t the logic in my code.
I also made the discovery that running my app directly in the emulator also failed in the same manner as on my phone. I also ruled out that it might be an issue with transferring an asset -a file the my app uses- as I bypassed using the asset.
(Running my app via visual studio in both the emulator and my phone worked perfectly.)
I then decided to re-house my forms and classes in a new template as I suspected it was corruption in some xml configuration setting that didn’t bother Visual Studio. This worked great and the app now runs stand alone on the phone (and emulator).
I cannot find PhoneGap Developer App on any virtual device (I checked on standard Android Studio virtual device and Genymotion), its just not listed if I search for it in Google Play, I can only see PhoneGap Demo App. I know I can test from browser on virtual android, but I am finding some plugins not working correctly in browser (like navigator.geolocation.getCurrentPosition works fine in PhoneGap Deveoper App but complains about non secure cinnection when run in browser (http://PhoneGapDesktop:3000)
Thanks
The simplest way is to download PhoneGap Developer App apk to your PC and drag it to emulator.
It will automatically install the desired app to your emulator.
Please note that since this is obviously for educational purpouse, you should first understand and legally evaluate the terms of use of PhoneGap Developer App.
I have spent a lot of time to develop a game for android devices in flash builder.
It works fine on the emulator. But when I connect my Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus, which is on the certified devices list, it shows the error:
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK]
I tried to export my app and filled a valid certificate but then it says:
Application Not Installed
Just to test, then I tried an Eclipse application which worked fine. So how can I fix this?
Also installing games from the market also works fine, so technically should'nt my app work also?
Hi guys, I know most of people faced the problem same like me.
But I still cant solve this problems.
I had build android app and this app is using Google Map API and Google Places API.
I had signed my apk file using Eclipse wizard, but when I transfer it to my tab (taiwan product) using SD Card it said "application not installed". I never installed this app with debug key before. All others Google Map apps I downloaded from Play store can use well in this tab.
I set min android version is 2.2 and highest is 4.0.3. My tab running on 4.0.3.
I also tried to install this app to other brands low end tablet, and it was successful.
But in my tablet, it failed.
Anybody have idea why I can't install this signed apk file? I had tried so much to solve this.
thanks..
There comes a time in every Android user's life where you want to install an app not found in the Android Market. If it's your first time, you're greeted with, "For security, your phone is set to block installation of applications not obtained from the Android Market" message as you try to install. But how do we get there?
To allow app installs from non-Market apps, tap the menu button on your home screen, then choose Settings >> Applications >> Unknown sources.
Who are these "Unknown sources," and what do they want? Simply put, it's anything other than the Android Market. Could be an app sent by e-mail. Or downloaded from a website.
If you're worried about the security implications of allowing unknown sources, there's an easy fix -- install the app from outside the Android Market, and then hit the checkbox again to turn them back off.
source.
I have an HTC buzz, which has a smaller screen (QVGA) than most android phones. Now there is an application (hyves) which is in the market but when I scan their QR code or try it via appbrain it keeps saying Not Found. A frien of mine (who now is in belgium) has a G1 and I've copied the APK when he installed hyves. The app itself works fine just the icons are a little to large, but that is not annoying.
Now the problem, there is an update, and I cannot install it via the normal way. Is there a way to get the download URL of an APK in the market (via cyrket or so)? I can try to sniff my network when the phone trys to get an app but I'm not sure how to do that and if that would work...
It happened to me with Angry Birds.
You can try to:
Install the android simulator
with a modified ROM that has the
market installed (here it is how to
do it).
Install in the simulator the application you can't install in your phone
Update it with market whenever there is an update
Share the APK with Dropbox or mail it, transfer to you PC or whatever is fine for you
Download and install the new version in your physical phone
The thing is that this application probably has some specific market filters enabled, so the market hides it from you. For example this app may decide (and report that to Android Market) that it shouldn't be run on QVGA screens, or that it shouldn't be run on your phone's Android version, etc etc. And for that reason Market won't show it to you.
But at the same time it finds itself suitable for your friend's phone, so it shows there.
So I guess whichever url you use - it won't help, market won't show it to you anyway.
The only option for you to install it is to find apk somewhere and install manually. Just as you did. And you'll have to repeat it for each and every update :)
So, find updated apk file ;)
