How do you install an .apk file that is an email attachment? - Asus Transformer TF700

Got an .apk file as an email attachement and I can't figure out how to extract it out of the email in order to install it? Anyone have an on-device method of doing this? I know I can forward it to my PC, extract the attachment, and bluetooth it back but how does on do this on-device?

Can you not save the attachment? Which email client are you using?

I use "Download All Files" for all kinds of funky web links that need to be captured -- the Gmail app attachments included.

Hmm...Went back to that email and "saved" the attachment just fine. Then package installer came up after downloading. Exactly what's supposed to happen. Not sure what happened the first time. I think I may have had the "do not download unsafe attachments" setting set, or whatever its called. Working today. Thanks guys. And thanks for the download all link. That works too!

HTC 1x2 digital clock no background

Hi all,
Here's my first mod. I took the mini HTC digital clock that takes 1x2 spaces and removed the black background... I attached the zip and a screenshot. Feel free to use if you want. I'm having problems with it not showing the city name, instead it just says current location. If I find a fix I will update, but I don't usually display the name. I know where I am most of the time.
Oh yeah... just drop the zip on your sd card and reboot to the recovery screen and flash the zip. Enjoy.

Is the attachment not visible for you? It shows in my message under the screenshot... the zip file is attached, not linked.
Also, you will need to clear your cache after doing it so it will download the location. I was having issues with the weather and location not updating, but I just cleared the cache and it seems to have fixed it.
Thanks! Let me know if you still can't see the attachment... if you PM me your email address I can email it to you.
Pm'd u. If u didn't get it my email is [email protected]

Gmail with froyo not the newest version?

Before the froyo update I had the option to "preview" or "download" for media files, but now it only shows "preview". Tried opening and hitting menu to see if its just buried now.
My question is....if I can find the .apk for the newest version of gmail (from before froyo) and install it on froyo, are there any issues that could possibly arise?

Yes you can. Go into a message, hit menu button, select "more" or whatever its called, and there's an option to select text.
I prefer the way dolphin HD browser does it...

Any other ideas? How do I save files (not pictures) that are emailed?

Don't think you can (unfortunately). I tried to download a .txt and .zip file and wasn't able to d/l either. I tried everything I could.
The most I could do was preview the .txt.
Not sure why they wouldn't allow this (perhaps security?), but they should definitely allow the option to d/l stuff.

How to dowload a file

whenever I try to download a file, I get the "download unsuccessful" warning. Is there something I'm not doing right. Im a noobie at posting not flashing. Thanks
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Could you be a little more specific? Download a file from where? What kind of file? How are you doing this? We can't help with so little information.
Maybe no sideloading?

I had this problem at first and then found it it had to do with the file type I was trying to download. Try downloading "Astro File Manager" (AFM) from the market. Open AFM, click the menu button, then "more", and then Preferences. Scroll down to the bottom and mark the check box next to "Enable Browser Downloads". That should allow you to download any file from the browser.
Try that out and let us know.
Download All Files app from market is great, I use it to pull down everything (not youtube rips though) great for roms

S Voice from the SIII working on the Infuse

http://www.mediafire.com/?m7mu6pdt0b63dul
Working great on my AOKP rom.
Pre-reqs: Google Play Store account, Android phone with a mic, apps from unknown sources checked. Also, you will likely need an ICS rom. YMMV if you are on a different Android OS.
1) Download the .rar file from the link.
2) Download ES File Explorer from the Play Store.
3) Open ES File Explorer.
4) Using ES File Explorer, navigate to wherever you downloaded the .rar.
5) Click on the downloaded .rar file.
6) Will open in ES File Explorers in-app ES Zip Explorer.
7) Click on the .apk file.
8) When it asks if you want to install, select install.
9) Voila, there will be the icon in the app drawer, or you can long hold the search button.
Article on the S Voice on the Galaxy Nexus: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/05/20/full-hands-on-with-samsungs-s-voice-for-the-galaxy-s-iii/
For those having trouble with the voiceback, here's something from the article:
Every left-pointing speech bubble you see in the pictures (except for "Say 'Hi Galaxy'" and the initial "What would you like to do") are read aloud with a Text To Speech engine. There's no TTS built in, it uses whatever you have on your phone, which in my case is the dreary default Google TTS. Maybe the GSIII comes with something nicer.

I havent personally looked at it but I'm assuming its an apk in a rar file. Download the rar on computer, open it, plug in your phone, open your system/app folder, put it in there, disconnect your phone, use a root explorer to go to that same app folder, click the apk and install it

Thanks guys for the help still fairly new to all this. got the roms and kernel flashing and all that down pat.
For those having trouble, its in a rar file. Use es file explorer and you can open the rar and install the apk directly from inside the app. You don't need to use the computer to extract it.

That weird for you guys.... i did the one the op provided and i am on nun's aokp and i hear voices fine. If i open certain apps and such it force closes, but for me mostly it runs great.
Works pretty well on my Infuse running CM9. I don't hear it talk as others have reported but it's cool. Not sure how useful it will be but I like the direction we're heading.

Sometimes it'll talk and sometimes it won't. I think it needs more files from the S3. I know it works for sure if you ask for the weather. That's when it'll sound like a depressed Siri. Might be because I live in a rainy city, so the weather is always depressing.
I have only tried using it to open a few apps but it looks like we need the specific S3 app for it to work properly. Taking a picture does not work, opening the camera does not work. But you can get it to check facebook, open facebook, and open the calculator.
Here is a modded version of S Voice.

edit & sign ur apk "application not install problem" (for newbi)

hi,guys.. i know all of you wanna create or mod an android apps and wanna use it or share.
i think newb like me already tried to change the image files from res folder of apk but the problem is edited apk files just dont install,it always say application not installed,the problem is the apk isn't signed,you have to sign it.. most of newb dont know how to sign apk. so here is an android app "ZIP SIGNER" it can sign your apk file. in this app just input your edited apk and chose output location and press Sign,and your apk will be signed. and you will be able to install your edited apk...... so try it.

Yes it is. And I would never recommend anyone to trust somebody who posts a link to download software away from the Play Store unless they are a recognised Dev - it could be anything at all.

You might consider editing your first post and removing the link that does not point to the market. I know you were trying to be helpful, but that doesn't look good.
