i remember i have seen one app in WinMo section that does the job of installer some times ago, but now i just can't remember the name of that app nor finding it.
The author have claim that it won't encounter situation like not enough privilege during installation of app, which i actually need it now, anyone remember such app?
Did you try installing the cab through file manager i will try to look around for that app
yup, i only install through file manager. But the cab is a chinese language support file, which i don't know what is the reason, can only install properly for the first time. if i have uninstall it and try to install again, i will just end up with message "does not have sufficient system permissions".
Yesterday night accidently uninstalling it when trying out an app...
Thanks for your help, if can't find a way through it i will just spend another 2 hour flash the rom again, which i recall that i have seen some app with description above.
ok, i have just done the v10d update and the video is much better...
Now id like to install an apk from my desktop of minidiary but it doesnt install..
Is that what rooting is for? to accept all apk's?
Sorry for the dumb question, i was a symbian s60v3 and s60v5 user..
Nope. To install apk's you just need to tell the phone to accept non-market items. Go to your phone's settings, then Applications and check the top option (should be called something like Unknown Sources, I have to translate from Dutch).
Then just copy the apk to your phome and use Polaris Office or a separate apk installer from the market to browse to the apk and install it.
Hello
I tried that and it didnt work, was not installed or something like that. I ticked it to accept non android market apps.
Its probably pirated i guess.. found it on the net. Does rooting make it accept all non-signed apps? What is root for?
Thanks
ps: does anyone know where i can download mini-diary. Great little app i saw in the galaxy s2
No, rooting gives you administrative access to some files which you normally don't have so you can customize the phone the way you like it.
The safest way to download applications is via the Market app on your phone (you can also try http://market.android.com). However if you don't want to pay for some apps then you can search google adding the ".apk" and the apk version in the search bar.

You can install any apk from your phone to the bluestack windows client really cool but some can't (I guess for security reasons) anyone has been able to install a terminal successfully ?!
If someone is interested https://www.facebook.com/groups/185729648172160/
Thanks, I was going to post it too.
I am curious to try it and see how it works..
Been workin on this, GingerBreak failed (not surprising), seems to be no way to "reboot" bluestacks (tried QuickBoot, ButtonSavior, etc.). Anyone managed to find out where BS is mounting the android system, and if there's any way to decompile it?
Buttons are pretty easy to skin =)

It likely cant be rooted without rebuilding the image, which might mean a bluestacks specific rooter. The image the fs is stored on is a read only fs type
Market !
Hi, I was able to run market (and other G-apps) on Bluestack.
Root is not necessary.
Extract and install the files in this order (click on .apk file -> "open as" -> choose HD-ApkHandler.exe from bluestack installation dir. to install):
GoogleServicesFramework.apk
OneTimeInitializer.apk
SetupWizard.apk
Talk.apk
Vending.apk
Gmail.apk
Maps.apk
Using an home replacement setup your account and.. you are in!

Gmail will not sync, Market throws network error when clicking on an app... still, good find, we're makin progress on day 1 =)

Old market 1.82 vs 3.2 but nice anyway
Things that needs that emulator are:
1.ROOT!
2.A home button that leads you to your launcher's homescreen
3.Windowed mode
It will be perfect for all netbooks.
Been using ButtonSavior for the home button
I have gotten the market to install and open but when I select an app to install it, an error pops up "A server error has occurred. Retry or Cancel to return to the previous screen" Any Ideas?

I thought ButtonSavior required root? How are you using it?
Location?
I opened the maps app and it lists "my location" as Lewistown, PA
I'd like to know why. It can't go off wifi or GPS. How is it getting this info. It's not exactly correct, but it's an hour away, so maybe there is something to it. It could be hardcoded, is this where the dev is from? Anyone else have lewistown?

Not for the home button, power still not functioning at all
I can't seem to get any apps to install whether it's sync (which doesn't seem to work right) or right clicking on an .apk file.
This has a lot of potential, I just wish I could get it to work right. Maybe I'll reinstall it and try again.

it can, but need to edit regitry, so do at your own risk.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BlueStacks\Guests\Android\FrameBuffer\0
inside change FullScreen to 0 (default is 2)
then change width and height(decimal or hex), then restart computer
Restart is not required, you can do on the fly resizing, just need to close the agent and restart
1. I installed ADW launcher EX
2. Got Market to work, thanks to following post

The apps can be downloaded. It gives error everytime, but press RETRY a couple of times and you will be able to install the app.
I downloaded the Dropbox and installed many apps from there.
The apps which are not supported in the above MARKET (its old version of market), failed to open (like Glow Hockey Pro failed but Air Hockey was
installed successfully).
Apparently this device is HTC MAGIC or HERO. The android vrsion running is 2.3.4 but all the wallpapers are from 1.5. It doesnt support Flash, and doesnt allow
advanced apps to run.
Also I tried to update MARKET but it failed to install.
3. I entered Android Initial Setup mode, finger pressed the Android logo but it didnt go further.
Sent from my Dream/Sapphire using xda premium
I loveeeee it
Halo all,
Please tell me the locate/PATH: LOG installed Applications on ANDROID system.
Assume is already ROOTED.
Other Explanation:
After we install a software (.apk), then the application is on the list of "installed Applications". In windows is "Add-Remove program".
I just want to delete that list (log) BUT NOT to Uninstall the application.
thanks
Hey guy's, I hope somebody can help me out here. I can't find any explanation on internet. I want to install an apk from the local storage on my Rog phone 5 ( android 12,un rooted) .
In the old days it was pretty simple, just a slide to activate the "allow unknown sources", click on the apk file and it would install. Now on the rog phone 5 in the apps¬ifications, special app-acces, install unknown apps it only shows a few apps that I can give permissions to install from unknown sources. Like Chrome, file manager, gmail, brave browser etc. ( see picture). So I give the file manager or brave the permission,restart the phone, go to the apk in the file manager but it won't install.
It will just show the contents of the apk. If I select the apk I can remove it, rename it, compress it, anything but install it.
I can choose open with brave but still nothing happens. I tried downloading an app in the playstore to install apk files but it won't even list the apk file. I have no clue why they made something that used to be so easy so complicated. So I hope somebody can enlighten me how to install an apk on this phone. Thanks in advance!
Have you enabled install unknown apps in developers options ? Special app access allows you to allow/not allow individual apps to install unknown apk files. I think you have to enable it in developer options for the native installer first. I may be wrong but it's worth checking.
I'll go check if the option is there and let you know. Tnx man.
The only thing I found was " force app allowance on external drive" and but it changed nothing.

you could try
Code:
adb shell settings put secure install_non_market_apps 1
adb shell settings put secure unknown_sources_default_reversed 1
that would be from terminal on pc or you could install settings database editor from play store and grant it permissions via adb and you will have gui to change system settings
Could you please walk me through how to do this? Tnx.

Ok, first I guess I need to ask some questions. Have you tried a different file manager, installed thru play store ? How many .apk files have you tried to install ? If it is just the one app that you have in storage it may be corrupt. Have you tried a fresh copy of it ? Is it an old app and is it compatible with your Android version ?
I don't know what I was thinking, that isn't in developer options anyway, it's in security. It would seem odd for them to remove the ability to install personal apk.
