Hi, I've installed the android SDK and the USB drivers however when I try and install a .apk using the command: "adb install <name>.apk" it states the phone model no. and "offline" next to it. I searched this issue but had difficulty finding any results. Does anyone know how I can solve this?

Download and use this so much easier!

ADB= Pain in the neck for most, I reckon

just learned to use adb myself and i'm sure the command to install a apk is "adb push <name of apk> /system/app

that the command i use with windows xp.

"push" just copies if I'm not mistaken.

Is USB debugging enabled?

your mistaken "push" pushes it to to phone.

"pull" copies it from the phone

thats the commands i use and thats how they work for me :lol:

P.S yes you have to have usb bebugging enabled

That's what I meant. It copies it to the phone. That's not the same as installing it on the phone, is it?

it's because by defaut apk in /system/app are view by the system as installed :lol: you can view them in the drawer

but you can make a real install :

type adb install application.apk
