Did give it a try.
Downloaded with G1 phone but won't install.
- topfs2 - 2009-07-25 16:35
Looks like I _had_ to sign it, I'll try to upload a new one and verify this on my phone first (have found the USB cable now
)I got the INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_NO_CERTIFICATES which I bet you got aswell?
- Waffa - 2009-07-25 16:40
I get no message, looked in file browser and folder is empty. Strange.
- topfs2 - 2009-07-25 16:45
Hmm, yeah indeed. Anyways I have uploaded a new one now which is signed and worked on my HTC Magic.
Btw which android do you have? 1.5?
btw how did you install it ? because you need to use adb install and such?
- Waffa - 2009-07-25 17:30
Tried the signed one and same result.
Have Android 1.5
Didn't use any program. Normally download and installing goes aut.
What is adb install and such ?
Have a .tar.gz ? file in browser and tried to extract it but no result.
- topfs2 - 2009-07-25 17:37
Hmm, I'm kindof new to android so It may be an easier way but here I do
In application settings on the phone I allow installation from unknown sources (as I understand anything which isn't from market).
Enable USB debugging (so I can adb install it).
plug in the phone with USB cable.
From Linux I do
Code:
wget http://android-xbmcremote.googlecode.com/files/XBMC%20Remote%20v0.1-signed.tar.gz
tar -xf XBMC\ Remote\ v0.1-signed.tar.gz
adb install XBMC\ Remote.apkBut if you have been able to install apk's without adb perhaps you should try unpacking on your computer and mail the apk to your phone and try that way
adb is btw AndroidDeBugger. so it's a way to communicate, send files and remove files and such. Much like ssh on linux but with debugging aswell.

OK, have it installed now. Did extract with my windows computer and then my phone could installed it.
there was a forced closed but I can launch the application.
Try to test it but :angry:can't acces my wi-fi network.

Is the wifi access android problem or only in this app? I can't understand how the app could change this as it just use the available one.
It's sad you have troubles and I would love if someone else with G1 could try and hopefully get it working.
The Magic I have it works splendid on..
Cheers,
Tobias.

Tried it on my G1 and well, I can start it... Can't really use it though, as I have to run xbmc on a port other than 8080.
