In the SDK's main directory (i.e. "C:/Programming/Android/SDK") there is the folder called "tools" --> Get into that folder. You need to start a console terminal/shell ("Start -> Run... -> type 'cmd'" for Windows PCs). Type-in sth. like the following command:

Code: Select all

adb shell rm data/app/{myFile.apk}

For example if you want to uninstall "HelloAndroid.apk" you should type this:

Code: Select all

adb shell rm data/app/HelloAndroid.apk

@atr I don't think this is a problem with his source, but with the SDK/ADT.

I typed this command
adb shell ../AndroidProjects/Previewer/Previewer.apk

The result is
../AndroidProjects/Previewer/Previewer.apk: not found

What seems to be the problem?
