I am using galaxy note II for development & I downloaded android sdk. I tried to do a simple deployment test using jmonkey & I set the sdk path in jmonkey. I’m also able to build & the apk file released successfully but when I try to run it onthe device it fails to install.
It fails with what error?
I don’t know . I click on install on the device then it gives 'failed to install ’ that s it
did you enable installing third party applications on your phone?
Good morning folks,
just registered here.
I got the same problem here. When i try to install the released apk it says it can’t and thats it. even with just the basic game.
devices: galaxy nexus and an odys tablet
@nehon said: did you enable installing third party applications on your phone?Please answer this question, if this option is not enabled, you are only able to install applications from the google play. If you don't know what I'm talking about, google "enabling third party app installation android"
yes, I enabled third party application which are unknown sources, as I know little about Linux. I also enabled the developer mode option which give some cool information. by the way I used the same sdk version with unity3d & it works fine. so I think that it’s just some configuration settings no more & I really don’t know how Jmonkey deal with droid sdk. I attached a screenshot for the result. one more thing I’d like to know is there a dependency app like dependency walker or .net reflector for the apk files?
Ok…
What android version/device do you have?
I am using Galaxy Note II & the android version is 4.1.1 (API level 16). my application is just a red a box in the center which is extended from simpleapplication. regarding the sdk I installed API level 16 but it shows from Android SDK manager 4.1.2. from Jmonkey under Mobile I can only select 4.1.2 or 4.2 target. this could be the problem but using the same sdk version by Unity3d the application works fine. so if the problem is the sdk version how can I target 4.1.1.
[java]public static void main(String[] args) {
//creating new settings for window display
AppSettings settings = new AppSettings(true);
settings.setResolution(1024, 576);
settings.setBitsPerPixel(32);
Main app = new Main();
app.setSettings(settings);
app.setShowSettings(false); // remove jmonkey splash screen
app.start();
}
@Override
public void simpleInitApp() {
viewPort.setBackgroundColor(new ColorRGBA(0f,0f,0.7f,0.5f));
Node CentralPivot = new Node("CentralPivot");
rootNode.attachChild(CentralPivot);
Box box0x0 = new Box( Vector3f.ZERO, 1,1,1);
Geometry red = new Geometry("Box", box0x0);
Material mat2 = new Material(assetManager,
"Common/MatDefs/Misc/Unshaded.j3md");
mat2.setColor("Color", ColorRGBA.Red);
red.setMaterial(mat2);
red.move(0,0,0);
CentralPivot.attachChild(red);
}[/java]oh ok yeah it must be it.
Can’t you target prior versions like 4.0?
Target version is the minimum android version your application supports. I even recommend targeting android 2.3 at least since it’s still 45% of the market.
I downloaded version 4.0 for the sdk & I targeted this version but no luck. here is my output window result:

BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 1 minute 11 seconds)
I build the project for 2.2 target & it still fails
Why don’t you directly run the app on the device from the SDK so you see the actual error output?
The content of this post is meant to be read as a straight information or question without an implicit dismissive stance or interest in having the other party feel offended unless theres emotes that hint otherwise or there’s an increased use of exclamation marks and all-capital words.
yeah, but I really don’t know how to connect my device
If you’re on windows you probably have to install some driver and then go to the devices settings and enable “developer mode”. On OSX I only had to enable “developer mode” on my galaxy tab to make it work.

well, I downloaded Samsung drivers & I am able to install & run the application on the device. that’s really cool thanks for the help. But I still wonder why the apk file doesn’t run. I mean do I have to do an additional step like signing or something like that. also how can I share my test builds among different devices.
I’d like to mention that Jmonkey Demo apk is really impressive.
