2009-05-17T02:08:00.000-07:00

here are the Steps to install non-market applications on G1 using sdk interface:

1. Download and install the Google Android SDK. The tool you need is adb.exe.

2. Download the USB driver for Windows. You need it for adb to inteface with an actual device using the included USB cable. Install it later after connecting the G1 to your computer using the USB cable.

http://dl.google.com/android/android_usb_windows.zip

3. Go to Settings/Application settings and enable Unknown sources.

4. Connect the G1 to your computer using the USB cable and install the driver you downloaded in step 2. After installing the driver you should see ADB Inteface in Windows Device Manager.

5.now u have to turn on debugging mode from application settings.
here is path.
settings->appplications-> development->usb debugging

6. If you made it this far, download the APK file to a local folder on your computer, something like C:\MyAPKs will work fine and install it using ADB. The command would be adb install c:\myapks\ and that's about it.

Installing APK files through Desktop using Windows Vista

After an intense search on how to install apk files through Vista, I have finally found a way to install APK files through your desktop runnning Vista. I'm not a computer guru and don't know diddly-squat about programming so if there is a better and faster way to install apk files through your desktop, please revise:

1) Disconnect your G1 mobile from your computer
2) Create a folder in your Documents folder for both files you will need to download
3) Download Google Android SDk for Windows http://code.google.com/android/intro/installing.html and save to the folder you created.
4) Download the USB Driver http://dl.google.com/android/android_usb_windows.zip and save to the folder you created.
5) Unzip both files into the folder and install the android program.
6) Open the "Androids-sdk-windows" that was unpacked, open the "tools" folder, and on your windows explorer, first left click on the address then right click and copy the full address.
7) Click on "start" menu, right click on "Computer", click on "Properties". Click on "Advanced system settings"
8) On the "Advanced" tab, click on "Environmental Variables...". Under "user variable..." click "New".
9) For variable name type: sdk_root
10) For variable value: just right click and paste. click ok
11) On your G1, go to "settings", "applications", and check "unknown sources"
11) Connect your G1 mobile and update your usb driver with the file you downloaded in step 4. If your usb driver will not update, use your device manager ("start" menu, right click "computer", click on "properties", "device manager") to update driver.
12) Be sure to mount your phone.
13) Move your .apk files to the "tools" folder you located in step 6
14) On the tools folder, mouse over a blank spot, hit "shift+right click" and click "Open command Windows here".
15) On the command screen, type :adb install filename.apk
Enjoy.

2009-04-18T08:12:00.000-07:00

Doesn't work!!! Followed all directions w/ care. Ran adb as a shortcut and added the integers in to open tcp ports 1080. Once running all exactly as it should, load any page and it tries to do something than the page loads plain white. Doesn't give me an error message or nothing, so I'm guessing u left out some information on the instructions? I know damn well I did everything correctly. Email me: forgottensoul82@gmail.com. thanx, Kev

WTF. It won't let me copy the new Browser.apk over.

failed to copy 'c:/temp/Browser.apk' to '/system/app/Browser.apk': No space left on device

somehow it deleted the Browser.apk and then filled the space or resized the partition in system so that I can't put back the new Browser.apk....

2009-02-27T07:28:00.000-08:00

This does not really switch between apps... it shows the most recent apps used. This may seem like a fine distinction, but often the apps you have recently used have already been closed. By assuming this to be true you may be slowing down your phone if you are constantly using this to reopen apps that are no longer open.
