Thanks for the help. However that option is checked.

This reminds me of trying to download pdf files before I installed a pdf reader. Same download unsuccessful message. It's like the phone does not know how to handle the file.

Ah, you may also have to indicate on your phone that you allow installation from "unknown sources". Try Menu->Settings->Applications and make sure the "Unknown sources" box is checked…."Allow installation from non-Market applications".

Thanks, I have 1.6

I did as you suggested and it did try to download. The notification, however, stated that the downloaded had been unsuccessful.

Guess the phone does not know how to handle .apk files - other than in the Market app.

Suggestions?

Probably easiest to just use your phone's browser: browse to the link provided, and click on it. The apk should download, after which (on my phone at least) you will get a notification in the menu bar saying "Download complete". Click on that notification, and it should then ask if you want to install the app.

What version of Android do you have?

I tried selecting the link and it initiated a download which was unsuccessful. How does one install this apk?

Thanks, Steve

Can it not run on earlier versions of Android?

Hi Steve,

No particular reason it shouldn't run on earlier versions…I had a device running 2.2 for which I developed, and don't have easy access to other devices for testing.

I just created a version that may work ok for Android 1.6+. The only source change was in an XML file for layout. A download link can be found here:

Any feedback you have would be most welcome.
