Android Question #CanInstallToExternalStorage: true

[derez]

When I install an application to my Samsung s2 using the b4a bridge with the definition "true", it installs ok.
When I pass the same application's apk file to the device and run it there - I get an error saying the package has problem.
looking at the with the application manager, the application cannot be moved to the sdcard because there is no more space there. I can understand this but why doesn't the apk install ?
When installing the apk with the above definition set to "false" it installs.
Can someone explain this ?

Thanks.

Not sure why it works with B4A-Bridge and not with the file manager installer. Both work in the same way (which is the only way to programmatically install an APK file).

See this link: http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/th...google-play-not-compatible.26623/#post-153993
This way you can change the installLocation field from 'preferExternal' to 'auto'.
