No. You can detect the first run of your application and treat it as part of the "install", though. > I would have thought by now all OSs/frameworks would provide this sort > of process. Back when Windows spyware would actually deign to register in Add/Remove Programs, such apps would take advantage of the "code executed during uninstall" process to try their level best to prevent the uninstall from happening. This ranged from suggesting major system problems if the app were to be uninstalled to forking processes that would reinstall it after the uninstall completed. Based on past comments, I am under the impression that the core Android team specifically does not allow apps to run code on install/uninstall to avoid these sorts of situations. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _The Busy Coder's Guide to *Advanced* Android Development_ Version 1.3 Available!
