I have been using Action_View
to install apk
using following code
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSTALL_PACKAGE);
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(new File(location + "myAPK.apk")),
"application/vnd.android.package-archive");
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);
It opens the Install Prompt window in device. Now user can install or cancel the installation process.
I am only interested when user click the install package but installation failed due to some reason may be corrupt apk or mismatched signed apk etc.
How can i capture the event when installation failed.. Can i get the result from ACTION_INSTALL_PACKAGE
I have gone through reading System Broadcast Messages
but all are used for either Pacakge added or replaced.
Any Clue ?
Launch the Intent with startActivityForResult
:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_INSTALL_PACKAGE);
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile(new File(location + "myAPK.apk")),
"application/vnd.android.package-archive");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_RETURN_RESULT, true);
startActivityForResult(intent, MY_CONSTANT);
Then analyse the result
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
switch (requestCode) {
case ...
}
}
