Hello All, My Android G1 developer phone was able to connect to a website, link and install from an apk I put there to test downloading .apks and Unknown Sources. My Droid X2 wouldn't do that. I had to use an app called AwesomeDrop to download and install it to the Droid X2. Once installed the app ran fine on both Androids
My test url is http://thomasofneedham.com/android/source/ click on vampireofneedhamC.apk to test the download. In order to keep things the same for testing, it's the same app that's on Android Market. I have no idea how the other operating systems treat unknown sources apks Best, Tom B On Aug 3, 4:39 pm, nadam <a...@anyro.se> wrote: > You can easily test this yourself.
