Hey everyone.
Sorry if this is not the right place for the topic, but a few days I am the owner of HTC Wildfire and do not know how to install applications on my SD card not in phone memory.
I would be very grateful if someone help me.
Thank you.
I am not sure if this is even possible.... (sorry if I am wrong...)
rootkit
I think it would be possible if rootkit was made for wildfire. We have to wait a bit for that.
ok
but how you deal when you want to install more applications ?
Hi there!
You can install apps from:
1.Market! Mother-source of android apps Just get an internet connection (Wi-Fi or 3G/Edge) and search an app and download from market
2.HTC Sync! If your apps on your PC you can use Sync to install apps Just connect your device to PC in HTC Sync mode then click to 'Application installer in HTC Sync. You can get Sync here.
3.If you don't want to use Sync you can download a file manager then (Astro FM and Estrong FM are good) put the apps from PC to phone's sD card by Storage Mode then open the apps by your file manager
zeph.
I think hes talking about installing on SD.
It is not possible until HTC updates the wildfire to 2.2(Froyo)

For now you can't. You can only install them on main memory..
You have to w8 for Paul from modaco to root the device first or else wait for the froyo update (if it comes out)...
Sorry I get your question as 'How can I install apps that on my sD card'

The first problem is that I have no wireless internet at my home so I cant download from the market ...well thats not an issue I can look from this forum and others for applications ..
The problem is that I need the "Apps Installer application"

cos without it I cant get any application or theme or game or anything installed ......and without those ..the G1 sucks ...
HELPPP
PLEASe
HELPP

you will not find application outside Market. You should buy a wifi router and stop spamming.
Thats not entirely true... They have a backup of several APKs at android-dls. You need to enable Non-Market installation though (Settings -> Applications-> First Checkbox). Hope this helps!
P.S. They're only free apps obviously

I already did enable the non-market..
I will try to go to that forum now to download this app installer to be able to install files with .apk ..
Right ?
I cant find the app. installer anywhere on the internet ..
Anyone knows where it may be located ?
You can just use Astro or Linda File Manager to browse your SD card for the .apk file.
Or, you can always just browse the website and download the .apk files from your phone and open them in the download manager.
Hi,
How can I download apps from Android Market to my PC (Windows)?
10x
If you want to download android apps you have to be running Android on your windows phone. - You should actually read before asking questions like this. I see per your post you are already running a custom rom on your phone so as you have already hspl, all you have to do is download a build of android from this forum to you desktop, plug in your phone and hit storage not sync and extract the build to the root of your storage card -
you also need to have a google email account to use the market.

Or, you can google "android. apk download" and some will come up, but you wont be able to do anything with them, keep them updated, and some might not even work.

10x for all replies, but I see that I made some confusion.
I have couple of Apps from Market that fail to install on my "mattc Leo + Froyo w/Sense RC1.4" build. I found in the thread that if I download them on PC and transfer to HD2 they may successfully be installed.
I did not find the APK on the net (google...and more), the only place is on the Market.
So here again I the QUESTION : How can I download application from the Market to my home desktop PC. Is there any Windows XP/7 clients available to do so?
You will have search google because there is no way to downlaod apps to the pc from the market.

how can i install apss or games in (htc HD2 -FROYO -ANDROID)??????????????
Just like WinMo
Marketplace or any file explorer (Astro).
I'm not sure exactly what you meant, but I'll address a common problem. If you are downloading from Android market and it keeps failing to install, try going into settings - SD card - mount / unmount. Unmount your SD card, wait, and then mount it. This has solved the problem for me before.
If I'm reading too much into this, then use what was posted above me: market or file manager (astro).

i have already try the astro file manager but i have a problem all the time when i try to install one application f.e (talking tom). Is trying to install (barcode scanner) if i choose another application again the same (barcode scanner) all the time..................
I have been using windows mobile for the past 20 years I just got a new HTC Desire Z with OS Android my question is once I have installed Micro SD card for the life of me I can't find away to access it any help would be appreciated.
I'm not sure that I understand what you want. If you want to directly access files on the card, you need a file manager app. Astro is one that I don't believe requires root. Otherwise, apps and your camera automatically save data to your sdcard by default.
Another option is to plug it into your computer and turn on USB client mode when prompted.

Go to Settings>Storage, does your SD card space show up there?
Another option: Plug in your phone on the usb cable to your computer and try to acces storage mode.
Where do I find file manager Astro

Download it from the Market.
Oh, and this page might be helpful: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=801206
Well that was easy thanks guys for you help.
Once connected, on your device, open the Notifications screen and touch on “Select to change USB connection type”. Select Disk Drive Mode and touch Done.
Next, on your PC, go to My Computer and you will see a listing for your device which is actually the SD Card. Open that drive and make the desired changes.
No problem, and ofcourse: Welcome to Android!
Ok I down loaded Astro is says it is installed but I can't find it.

If it's downloaded and installed from the market, it should just appear on top of your app list in the app drawer.
Hi,
First post so please be gentle. I've got a Lg GT540 running 1.6 and wanted to install a couple of apps onto the phone internal memory, so I got the apk files onto my desktop and connected the phone up via usb and could not and have not been able to copy these files onto the internal memory. In fact the phone does not come up as a drive or anything and copying the files onto the sd card leaves them stuck there and not being installed.( Mainly the astro file manger app.)
I then considered upgrading the phone to 2.1 via the LG site and downloaded LG suite etc and all was going well until the process stopped at 4% upgrade and requested I disconnect from pc, remove battery etc etc. I tried to follow that procedure 3 times and it still failed.
Not beaten I then found some stuff online to enable me to reflash to 2.2 (Modaco) and started that process. One of the first things it required me to do was start the phone in Fastboot mode by holding the camera button down whilst powering up. THe phone stubbornly refused to go into Fast boot.
Sooo, How do I get to copy Astro onto the internal memory so I can do what I want to and/or how can I upgrade to 2.2/
Firstly when you try to get into fastboot it wont work until you install a fastboot kdz.
This will allow you to flash roms onto ur phone.
I've made a video on a "how to" its in the general, look trought the pages or visit www.YouTube/user/tech2tuts
There's also a video on how to install android 2.3 swiftdroid. Its on the same channel in the favorites.
But beware u will lose all you apps unfortunately. Unless you get astro file manager or titanium back up which requires your phone to be rooted.

Unable to install apps
Hi Chris, Thank you for the link to the demo and I will need to look at that with a view to implementing. No doubt I'll be asking for some assistance during the process.
However I'm still at a loss with not being able to install apps directly onto the phone memory and would appreciate some pointers on that. I have acess to a desktop running XP and a laptop running Windows 7.
Thanks in advance.
You probly cant install apps due to lack of internal memory. Bye install the Kdz it will enable over 230mb of internal , along with apps to sd, so no need for use of internal.
unable to install apps
Thanks again, but phone showing 3.6 gb avaiable on sd card and 120mb available on internal memory?
I really want to know why my pc connection only reads my sd card and not the internal memory. Is there an approved way of connection ie whether I need to use any LG software etc.
Hmm that's odd. When you connect to comp it should only show SD card, have u tried a factory reset?

unable to install apps
Hi again,
have made some progress and managed to update the os to 2.1 off the LG site.
When usb plugged into pc it does read the sd card and I am able to copy files inc apps to it but do not know how to run them!!! My belief is that I need to install apps to the phone memory???
Ohhh i think i see your problem now.
So uve downloaded apps from this website or other?
And you want to know how to install them?
Get astro file manager or any other ones the same,connect your phone, put the Downloaded file into a folder , like downloads in your SD card then disconnect your phone , open astro the go into SD card and downloads folder and press on the app, it will ask you to install and Bam your done.
Or if its saying that ur not able to install it, go settings>applications>development>usb debugging tick it and also allow installation or 3rd party apps tick that to.
I think that what you mean?
Hi Chris, I think you are close to understanding my problem, I have a apk file of astro pro on my pc but am not sure where to copy it to. I have tried copying it onto my sd card but am then not able to run it?
Do I need to have the phone rooted etc?

The first thing to do would be to downlaod Astro Free from the market and then navigate to the sd (home on astro) and select the apk, open app manager and install, install. Now it will be installed.
Tap here and then tap download directly from market to download from market.

Yeah i understand. Follow these instructions. Astro is free on the market anyway. The pro version is no different.
A very big thank you to Chris and Quinney I actually had the Astro apk on my laptop and sent it across via Bluetooth and I'm now up and running, Only had bluetooth working since the update to 2.1
Wouldn't mind getting it to run a little faster though, I see people reporting 800mhz being smooth.
unable to install apps
Hi, thanks Chris and Quinney, Finally managed to send the Astro apk from my laptop via bluetooth and all my problems are behind me.
Thanks once again.
No problem.
