If you have got root, then search on internet for remountrebootfix, download it, connect z to the pc, run the exploit and complete all steps. Whne it will be done, download from google play Foldermount, i recommend to donate to get full version, the go to Analyzer aplications, choose a game and click on add pair. After reboot, your obb files will be on sdcard. Please google this apk, Foldermount, because in this moment i havent got too many time and you should check another guide how to use foldermount.
Hit Thanx if i helped.

hi again
that FOLDERMOUNT app is really bad after i rebooted them my device turned on its restart again and again i tried to uninstall that app fast like thunder and now my phone work fine but still low memory is there any idea? im rooted running lastest 4.3

that's why i provided to use remount reboot fix firts. This is tool which can make your phone prepared for this apk.
I am using this apk on Existenz V6.6.0, just connect your phone to pc with adb drivers installed and usb debugging enabled, run the script, choose your root method and let it do its job. After this you can install Foldermount and it will really work. I promise
PS: you need to extract this tool to :C//

Need help on .apk

hello, im really new on this thingy.
I have downloaded some free apps and its file extension is .apk
how will i install that in my G1 Android?
i downloaded the files using PC not my mobile.
You need to go "Settings>Applications>" and check the "Unknown Sources" box.
There are a few ways of getting them to install.
Most people will copy them to the SDcard by USB cable. (I have a /APKs folder). Then you need to use a file manager to select them (search ASTRO or Linda in market).
The other method I use is putting them in my "/htdocs/G1" folder on my local server, so I have a bookmark pointing to "192.168.0.2/G1" on my G1 and just visit that in the browser, you can then launch the installer from the downloads screen.
Edit: Oh and the other main way if you cannot do either of those, would involve downloading the SDK, setting up your path and drivers and issuing the install command from your PC.
What i do and i got this from youtube so i dont know if there are easier way
make sure phone is setup to install Unknown sourses you can do this in settings,Applications and have a tick next to unkown sourses
mount sd card...
copy .apk file to sd card
unmount card
goto market placed and install linda file manager..(i think astro file manager is as good but ive never used it)
Open Linda File Manager and press SD Card ...it should show a screen that should say complete action using google mail + Linda File Manger press linda File manager option
click on the apk you want to install.
it should show a screen with a option saying package installer click it
you should get a screen with a install button
press install
and that it..
AndExplorer v1.0BETA3 <-- can i use this? coz for now i dont have wifi in my place.
i got that from here http://slideme.org/application/andexplorer
but my problem is how will i install this?
get appsinstaller from the market.
It will search your sdcard and give you a list of .apk files just tap one to install it
so when i will install the installer the sd card must be unmount for it to be placed on phone.. tnx btw to those replies
is there any good apps that i can download? i want the nice ones but for free xD

Just put the .apks on your sd card either in a folder or on the root (it don't matter). Then download either appinstaller or linda. Check install from unkown sources like they said in previous post. Open up app installer or linda, find the apk then install. Its pretty cut and dry.
ok tnx, uhmm any good apps / games u can refer to me? xD
have you checked to see if the app that you downloaded is available on the market. AndExplorer, for instance is available in the market for free. This can be installed without any extra files or help. Perhaps you can check the market for other files to install on your thingy.

[Q] How to install apks?

Hi,
I'm unable to install sideloaded APKs. This is what I did:
1. Ran the 'NookColor Tools'; checked 'Allow Non-Market Apps'; and rebooted.
2. Copied the apk to SD card (in a new folder My Files > 'Apps').
3. Installed Astro File Manager from the Market.
4. Navigated to the location of the APK; clicked on it; selected 'Open App Manager'.
5. Clicked 'Install'.
Says 'Install Blocked - Installation of downloaded apks is not supported'
I must be doing something wrong, any help would be great!
Thanks
Try unchecking the box for Allow Non-Market Install, reboot, check box, reboot, should work now. I had to do that after autonootering.
Good luck!
Sent from my rooted NOOKcolor using the XDA app

I'm unable to uncheck that either. After unchecking, if I re-open NookColor tools either instantly or after rebooting, it remains checked! But still, apps won't install.
I'm in the same boat .. no matter what i can't get that box to stay unchecked
I had the same problem, try unchecking, rebooting, I think it will be checked again then when it reboots just uncheck and recheck it (no reboot). That worked for me. I'm glad too cuz I though I was going to have to go through all that adb bs lol.

I don't know why this worked but i successfully installed the latest market app from my sd card using the above mentioned process. Firmware is 1.0.1 autonootered. Thanks for the help!

or us a file manager astro or file manager of your choice i believe
I had similar issues after using autonooter from 12/25. After playing with nook tools I gave up unsuccessfully. After a reboot I noticed it was working. For the life of me I can not figure out if the reboot did it or something else but it is working now. I was ready to go back to the old method of manually editing the database using adb.

You shouldn't, I've rebooted a few times and have had no problems.
Here's what i've done to get around this.
Appmonster on my phone. Download and backup the app on my phone.
copy the app onto nook somehow, i use dropbox.
then i use rootexplorer to copy, change from r/o to r/w, paste the apk, and then install it.
So far working well, trillian, amazon, and google reader. Not sure about the potential of installing versions of apps that could brick or screw up the nook.
Laptop not Recognizing Nook after installing ADB
I tried the boot over and over, but it did not work. So I followed the instructions on installing SDK and ADB and was able to install applications. This meant replacing the Nook Driver. I was not able to install the files via the USB cable, but used ADB wireless instead.
Now I can no longer see the Nook when I connect it by USB to my laptop, running Windows 7. I used to see the Nook as my J drive and the SD Card as the K.
I plugged it into my Desktop and and able to see both.
I am guessing this has something to do with the Driver on the Laptop (which I replaced following the instructions in the video). Is there a way that I can get my laptop to see the Nook and the SD card again without losing the ability to install files?
Thanks

[Q] Tried to flash my first rom..

Well I got a stock 1009 built captivate that's running the official froyo. I decided to attempt to flash my first rom.
I used superoneclick to root and installed titanium backup and backed up my apps and data. That worked fine.
Then I used odin3 one click and restored to jh6? I think. And that worked fine.
Then when I went to use the One Click root. Where you have to copy the root file onto your internal sd and rename it update.zip then run the .exe file. I got some error in the green cmb prompt that I couldn't read quick enough and the phone rebooted into recovery and when I went to reinstall packages it told me that update.zip didn't exist? Rebooted normally and it was still there in the internal sd.
Is there something that im doing wrong or another way past this? For the hell of it i left the update.zip, rooted using superoneclick and installed rom manger and all of that worked fine in till it rebooted to recovery again.
basically I cant root with one click, but superoneclick works fine..
Edit: Noticed I put this in the wrong forum. Can a mod please move to q&a?
using regular one click is easy enable debugging and dont mount the sdcard clcik root and cmd window pops up starts daemon copies file and reboots phone select reinstall packages and should be good. If not delete the update.zip and start over remember dont mount the sdcard so it is accessible from the computer.

place in /mnt/sdcard/
this location is the root location of "my files" known as root of SD card
not to be confused with the phone's root directory that you need root explorer for.
It's placed in the right area. When I move the file, rename it, then ummount the phone and run one-click. It reboots into recovery fine and when I reinstall packages it gives me error about a signature?

when you run the app, you will notice 2 radio buttons on the right hand side.
click on RAGE
make sure your phone is in USB Debugging mode and that you have all your drivers installed.
Alright thanks alot. Im still doing a little research on the rage method. Basically I just root and have that option ticked? Then I should be good to go?

Issue with app's ?

Hi.
I have issues here.
I would install market and Astro filemanager.
But I got info that they already was installed.
I cannot see them in the Application->Manage applications
It tells me, that " you don't have any third party apps installed".
I had the idea, that the GT540 is rooted, but obvciously not, as I cannot install apk's using the adb command.
Beside this, I also have this:
process com.android.vending issue.
What can I do?

You've missed the forum, this should be in General or Themes and Apps forum.
You haven't stated what ROM are you using.
Are you trying to install Astro via Play Store or from apk on sd card?
com.android.vending is a Google Play Store app, has it updated itself or is still Market?

Sorry for posting a wrong place :-(
I'm not sure what ROM I'm using. It's the dafault one, as it has not been modified, but Don't know. How to see it?.
It's an LG GT540 I use.
Iwould install it from apk on SD card, but due to a reason I don't know, I cannot get adb to work.
It tells me, that device not found.
I have formatted the SD card with FAT32, and now I cannot see the system path.
Bot worth to mention, I'm a newcomer here on Android :crying:

For recovery and fastboot look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1224747
I'm not sure what puzzled me, but now all is working.
I did an factory reset -one of an enormeus lot-, and after all worked again.
Now I can go to Market and do all what I want.
Thanks for the link to recovery and fastboot.
Will save the link for future use.
So for now, thanks for all your comments and great infos.
They are much appreciated

Use APK Installer For PC. Install files through it. Before installing apps, check "install to sd". Your apps will be in your sd card.
Hit THANKS if it worked.

If anyone can make it work please let us know
Try it on a Windows 7 machine.

Post a pic of your X2 kernel... version... baseband etc. For better understanding
