Hi,
Thanx all for sharing the useful information.I hav recently installed an .apk file to the htc mobile. I could see my application installed on the menu of the htc phone. But when I try to execute my application on the android device,nothing gets up(Though I am able to execute in the emulator).. I use Apache tomcat in my local machine and axis engine to fetch data’s required for my application from an remote server and my source code involves specification of my IP address. Can anyone pls help me in this regard.. Thanx for the advance help..

The message is coming because the drivers for the G1 Android device are not properly installed.
If you are running windows, Check so:
Right click on My Computer, and click Manage, then go to the device manager
If you see an “ADB Interface” category at/near the top, with “HTC Dream” under it, then you’re good to go.
Else, you need to install the drivers by pointing to the driver location to the usb_driver folder under the android sdk folder installed by you, while the device is connected, and
the system prompts for it.

Thanks,
Shesh

Hi, when I follow step 6 it says, “Device not found”? any advice? I think it may be cause I havn’t installed the driver for usb yet. I am have previously transfered songs via usb. I am lost.

Erik, Let me answer your last question first: To transfer files to your G1 device from your PC, you should run the command “adb push / /sdcard” from within your /tools directory.
You can traverse the device file structure using “adb shell” command. Take care to see that when you want to push files to the device, your emulator is closed.

If you are using eclipse as your IDE, you can use the DDMS perspective->file explorer to see the file structure on the sdcard, or push and pull the files or folders to and from the device using the two icons at the top right of the file explorer view.

However, for your other questions, the capability to download and install files to where we want (like on a PC), is in the control of the Device and OS vendors. As of now, all applications (packaged as .apk) are installed by default to the data/app folder in the device.

Erik Nielsen:
When downloading the files to your phone you need to use the pc suite software that came with your phone. Using xp or windows drag and drop to your phone will not work. If you do not have the original phone software cd it can usually be downloaded free of charge from the phone manufacturers website, A cable download is more reliable.
When choosing where to download the software to, simply place it in the phones internal memory, do not place it in a subfolder of the internal memory.
Once file transfer is complete the phones display should ask where you want to save the file to, usual options are Games or Applications, select your choice and follow the instructions on screen.
HOW DO I DO THIS….??? PLACE FILES FROM MY PC TO THE G1 PHONE???

Narendra, The article is for install and uninstall, however, if it helps you, I can tell you succinctly.

If your dev IDE is eclipse, you can set the first activity of your app in the Run As->Open Run Dialog->Launch,
Set the Target to your Device in the Target Tab.
Connect the Device through USB (I am hoping the drivers for your device are there on the system and it is already recognized by your computer.)
Run As->Android Application through eclipse, it should come up in the device, without you touching the screen!!!.

It is possible Dennis, I will update the post to include this.
You need to use the “adb shell rm .apk” command for this purpose.

It would be so cool if uninstallation via Terminal was possible – less hassle!
