The old version isn't so much as uninstalled as it is updated. All external resources like shared preferences, databases etc (your app's / data/ folder) are not removed. If you have something on the sd card it is not removed.
Everything else gets removed and updated, including all the drawables and layouts in your projects /res/ folder. --------------------------------------- Creator of My College Life http://mycollegelife.org On Apr 17, 1:49 pm, klaus johan <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > Could someone describe to me what happens when an android application > is updated?
