I’m using the android-maven-plugin 3.2.0 and run the following in order to install and start the apk on my device (Nexus One, Android 2.3.6), which is the only one connected via usb and visible to adb; no emulator running in parallel either.
mvn install android:deploy android:run
Below is the output in my shell, which looks all good, and I even get a message saying
Successfully installed
/Users/myuser/Projects/MyCompany/com.mycompany.abc/target/com.mycompany.abc-1.0-SNAPSHOT.apk
to HT9CPP805008_HTC_NexusOne
but it’s not true, the apk is not installed on my device, can’t be found under applications.
The only way I can currently get the apk really installed is via a workaround, because android:deploy doesn’t seem to work correctly.
(adb itself works fine though, I can run any command (push, install, etc.) manually via adb and it also finds my devices without a problem. I’m on Mac OS X Lion with adb v1.0.29)
Update:
Here’s an interesting finding I just made: android:deploy/run works fine if I have the app already installed on my device before and then run maven, which would then undeploy the old apk firstly and then redeploy the new one. This works! But – if I don’t have the app installed on my device at all before, or delete the app manually before running maven, it won’t work. Changing the value of <undeployBeforeDeploy> from true to false doesn’t make any difference here either.
Has anybody experienced this problem before?
