hi

i want to install the file demo.apk to the emulator from cmd

after starting the emulator from the tools directory i get the following message

Code: Select all

C:\android-sdk_m5-rc14_windows\tools>emulator.exe
Audio out device: Microsoft Sound Mapper
Audio in device: Microsoft Sound Mapper


after this the emulator starts and according to the documentation of google i have to write the following to install the apk file

adb install <path_to_apk> so in my case its adb install C:\workspace\Sample\bin\demo.apk

but as soon as the emulator starts the cmd window becomes inactive and i cannot type anything (the install command) in it.......and if i close the emulator then i can type in cmd window. but now it says tht device not found.

so am i doing something wrong or how do i install this apk file.

1) i initially ran the activitycreator command
2) ran the ant command

this gave me the demo.apk file in the bin directory.

sorry for the lengthty message guys

HI,


First copy ur Demo.apk file in androidSDK/tools folder

Now u can easily run 'adb -d 1 install Demo.apk' command
Then it will succeed.

Hi vamsi

i copied the demo.apk in the tools directory and ran the command tht u said but it gives me "error: no device"

First run emulator


open new cmd line and install apk,,,.

But i don't see the application on screen .How to show it on Android screen

Hello intet,

did you push the "All"-Button in the lower right corner of the emulator-screen

The same thing happens when I try to install using adb - The apk file is copied correctly to the data/app/ but does not get displayed even when I press the All button in the simulator.

Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Neha.
