Hi all, After a lot of search, I can't find a way to install a privileged application in a device that does not come from the market place.
Is it really impossible? I need to show the application I'm developing running on a device to a client that is on the other side of the world. I can't just tell them to run a script on the device to allow a dummy trust store so that they can install an application from a webserver, as shown in this post. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/mozilla.dev.b2g/packaged/mozilla.dev.b2g/r0LJk2p_vA4/vJC2WCQyxkIJ As the application needs access to device contacts and local storage, the application needs to be privileged, and really has to be packaged. If it was an Android application, I would just send the self signed .apk, they would go to the settings, allow untrusted sources applications and proceed with the installation. To do this on Firefox OS, I would have to send a device with the application via plane to show my progress? Shouldn't user have the last word on this decisions and just allow that a installPackage() for a privileged app can be run from a random webserver? _______________________________________________ dev-b2g mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-b2g
