Question

I have my android app developed, I generate the apk file and it works perfect, the app is installed in my sd, but, when I install it from the market its installed in the phone.

I have this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.mypackage.myapp"
android:versionCode="2"
android:versionName="2.0"
android:installLocation="preferExternal" >

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7" />

Do i need to change minSdkVersion? or add somethhing to my developer Console?

Thank you in advance!

Answer 1

InstallLocation mechanism works with Android ver 2.2(FROYO) and above, So the targeted device must be having at-least 2.2(Froyo) and above to get installed on Sdcard directly.
