Android Question Problem when B4A is "installing application to device"

[jcredk]

Hi all,

Since my application has grown, I start to have this issue when working with my attached device (WIKO CINQ FIVE).

Parsing code.                           0.17
[...]
Installing file to device.              Error
    pkg: /data/local/tmp/HRSMain.apk
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE]

Restarting ADB Server may solve this problem.
Tools - Restart ADB Server.    Device serial: 0123456789ABCDEF

If I manually uninstall previous test then it deploys correctly.
When I look I telephone caracteristics it seems that telephone has 1GB free and SDCard has 29GB free !?

Does someone have an idea ?
Is this path "/data/local/tmp/HRSMain.apk" on the dev PC or on the device that is supposed to be developed ?

Thanks a lot
Jo

How big is the Apk / App?

You may well need to attach expansion files to it.

The issue here is that the apk itself is a zip version of the App, so when it gets installed it gets unpacked and presumably in expanding the file it blows the limit.

There is some more info. here : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...oid-install-failed-insufficient-storage-error

On the device.

Thanks for the answers and the link provided ==> at least I believe I am not the only one with this issue

Do you know a nice free application to browse this folder on my phone that is not rooted ?
I tried with the 3 I have but none of them find (or accept to browse it) ...!
"adb shell l" on the folder says access denied ...!

You cannot browse this folder as it is a restricted folder. How large is the APK file?

Hi all,
The APK is 4MB mainly due to the fact that it contains one big access DB of 7MB ???

Make sure that the module attribute #CanInstallToExternalStorage is set to True.

Make sure that the module attribute #CanInstallToExternalStorage is set to True.

Yes of course it is wet as True.
At the end, when I desinstall before debug, it correctly installs with most of it on SD card ...!
