在Android模拟器中安装.apk时出错

Question

I'm new to android development. I've installed eclipse and updated all the android packages. Now i'm trying to run the .apk file that was provided by my app developer to test it in the emulator.

I'm installing it via a download from the web. Once the package is downloaded, when I click on it, it says "installing". Then it says Not Installed. The app runs fine on my phone. But I want to test it with different screen resolutions and sizes, screen captures etc.

I've tried it with several different emulators from 2.3 to 4.0, and I get the same error.
I'm running eclipse on a mac.

Answer 1

If you are downloading the apk inside the emulator and then attempting to directly install it inside the emulator, that may be the problem as the emulator does not include the Android Market (now Google Play).

Download the apk on your Mac first, and then install using adb as follows:

adb install <apk_file>

Answer 2

After uninstalling the app from the emulator, Open a terminal and to the directory where you installed android-sdk, then go to platform-tools. Give command adb install yourAppName.apk Post the error log if this fails. (To view the error log, open another terminal and go to android-sdk-installation directory > platform-tools, give command adb logcat . Keep the log running while the apk is installing.)
