How to install APK to motorola milestone XT720

You should be able to use Astro to done them on your SD card, and install them. I use a different file manager, so I'm a little fuzzy on the specifics, but I'd wager that you would long press on the apk in question and it should prompt you to install

 

Um, can't you download it from the market, so it loads itself?

 

If you have adb installed on your comp you can install apps to your android device.

Code (Text):

1. adb install [I]filename.apk[/I]

...should do it for you.

 

That's another option, though I have to wonder given that factory resets don't wipe out the Market. And with Astro being freeware (last I checked), it should be accessible anywhere in the world. I'm starting to think this is root and ROM related...

 

Adb should do that for you. You put the file on your comp (in the ADB folder) and use the command above... (and here)

Code (Text):

1. adb install astro.apk

If you have adb installed, that'll work. The directory should be something like this... C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools with adb and the astro.apk in that folder. Just CD to that folder and use that code.
