Guess
This is the most stable installer i've found thanks

sometimes it does stall when installing too many at once but still the best so far
 
hi, is this tool still being maintained? if so, i have android-sdk_r08-mac_86. sdk/Tools was moved to sdk/platform-tools. Correction is appreciated :)

Btw, the tools still works. but adb still need to be in the tools folder, which is no longer recommended by Google.

It is... the adb binaries should be bundled with this tool.. It will not use your adb files...
I just never added mac support..
I will do so very soon.. i have the code for it, because i use it for the fastboot commander tool (check my signature)...
So it's just a matter of copy and paste...
Stay tuned for an updated :0)

When i install apk's with your tool, will they be shown at the market ?! Don't want to update all the apps by hand :p , really like the Automtaic Update feature from the Market App ;)

Hi, Thanks for the great tool, I'm using linux (opensuse), I had to run (LinuxRun.sh through terminal) using root account otherwise it gives a permission denied, Is this normal? Thanks.

It should not be necessary. But it also depends on who is the owner of the file and what permissions it has.
Make sure your are the owner and it has execute permissions:
Code:
chown yourUserName:yourUserName ./LinuxRun.sh
chmod 775 ./LinuxRun.sh

Thank you for your work again, I will try that.

    Now with Mac support :0)


    The idea is basic... start the application and drag & drop all your .apk files and they will get installed on your device.
    It will accept multiple files, multiple folders or a combination... the app. will automatically pick up any file with the extension .apk or .APK... so just simply drag&drop.

    Or you can just double click on any .apk file and the app. will install it for you without the graphical part starting up.
    You can follow the progress on the app. and/or find a log.txt inside the folder "Logs". Just make sure to extract the application to a folder where you have write permission or there will be no log files!!!!
    A log will be made regardless of the graphical part starting up or not.
    Do not forget to give it time to install or the log will be incomplete.

    If you want the "-r" flag set then check the comboBox named doReInstall.
    The flag "-r" will basically install the app even if it is already installed, but will not disturb the app's settings.
    See the adb doc for more info.


    DO NOT TOUCH THE "Tools" AND "Logs" FOLDERS....
    NOR SHOULD YOU MOVE/TOUCH THE ".bat" OR ".sh" FILES (unless you KNOW what you are doing).


    Windows:
    Double click on the "AppInstaller.jar" file or on the "WindowsRunMe.bat" to start the graphical app.

    If you want the .apk double-click feature do the following:
    1)Right-click on any .apk file and choose "properties".
    2)Under "Opens with" row choose "change".
    3)Navigate to where the "WindowsRunMe.bat" is located and select it.
    4)Choose "ok" then "Apply".
    5)Enjoy :0)
    Remember that the log files will still be under the "Logs" folder.

    You want the reInstall-feature when you use the double clicks? Then right-click on the .bat file and choose "edit".
    Change "DOREINSTALL=false" to "DOREINSTALL=true". Save!
    That's it :0)



    Linux(Ubuntu running gnome desktop/nautilus) :
    DO NOT START THE APP WITH DOUBLE CLICK...IT WILL NOT LOAD CORRECTLY.
    ALWAYS USE "LinuxRunMe.sh" SCRIPT.
    REMEMBER TO GIVE THE SCRIPT EXECUTE PERMISSION :0)

    If you want the .apk double-click feature do the following:
    1)Right-click on any .apk file and choose "properties".
    2)Under the "Open with" tab choose "add".
    3)Choose "use custom command" and navigate to where the "LinuxRunMe.sh" file is located and select it.
    4)Make sure that the .sh file is highlighted under the "Open with" tab.
    5)Enjoy :0)
    Remember that the log files will still be under the "Logs" folder.

    You want the reInstall-feature when you use the double clicks? Then double-click on the .sh file and choose "Display".
    Change "DOREINSTALL=false" to "DOREINSTALL=true". Save!
    That's it :0)


    MAC:
    I have no idea, but i bet that the linux way should work :0)
    Can somebody confirm?


    Hope that you will like the work.

    Don't forget to say thanks :0)
