    I copied the .apk file onto the file explorer of the tab. On the Tab when I click on the .apk file I always get an expectation saying “Application Not Installed”.

    The other thing I noticed is the wMMD builds the app with android 8. On the device it is using 4.0.4 version.

    Thanks and Regards,
    Sandeep

    Hi Sandeep,

    Android 8 is the SDK level, 4.0.4 is the operating system version (the SDK level of which is SDK 15). This should be fine.

    Yes It is ticked…

    Well I see this option under Security->Device Administration-> ‘Allow
    install of non-Market applications’

    Thanks and Regards,

    Hi Sandeep,

    The other thing I noticed when making android apk builds was that I had
    to export a signed package (rather than unsigned) if you are using
    eclipse and have the android eclipse plugin installed you can do this by
    right clicking on your project and selecting Android Tools, > Export
    Signed Package. This will then start a wizard which will guide you
    through the process of making the apk. If it’s your first time doing
    this you will also need to setup a keystore but the wizard will help you
    with this aswell.

    Once build and loaded onto the device you should be able to install by
    finding it in the file explorer. You may need to remove any previous
    versions installed on the handset as it may report a conflicting
    signature error.

    Regards,

    Kareem.
