Installing Applications Through the Android Market

The Android Market is essentially Android’s answer to Apple’s iPhone App Store. As of September 2009, the Android Market already offered well over 10,000 applications, and this number has only continued to grow. In addition to the applications the Android Market offers, you can also use it to install other downloaded third party applications.

  1. Copy the APK file to your Android’s memory card and insert the card into your phone.
  2. Download and install the Apps Installer application from the Android Market
  3. Once installed, the Apps Installer will display the APK files on the memory card.
  4. Click and install your APK files.

Installing Applications With Android SDK

It is possible to install APK files without utilizing the Android Market, although the process is more difficult and complex. To avoid the Android Market, you need to use Android SDK.

  1. Download and install the Google Android SDK program and the Android USB drivers. The download links are as follows: http://code.google.com/android/intro/installing.html
  2. http://dl.google.com/android/android_usb_windows.zip
  3. You need to modify your Android’s settings to allow the installation of applications from other sources. Under “Settings,” select “Application Settings” and then enable “Unknown Sources.” Also under “Settings,” select “SD Card” and “Phone Storage,” and finally enable “Disable Use for USB Storage”
  4. This last step is easy. Open Command Prompt and type the following: adb install <1>/<2>.apk
  5. However, when you type the command, replace <1> with the path to your APK file and replace <2> with the name of the APK file.
  6. You’re done! Your application is now ready for your use and enjoyment.

***PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW THE DESCRIPTION***

Welcome to my Carbon Glass Theme. It is a mix of Carbon Fiber, my Glass Rings and Glass Squares themes and icons. The goal is to be a very unique, clean styled theme with a perfect mixture of the Glass Squares and Glass Rings to keep you intrigued.


The theme was originally built for ICS but I have been adding more and more of the JB objects as the theme goes. I currently am still running ICS so testing changes is slightly difficult.


What’s Themed:


Framework and the associated icons

System UI

Settings

LatinIME (keyboard)

System Apps

Market Apps – GMail,(G+ in coming update), Plume, YouTube


More apps will continue to be added, as well as adding more into the currently themed apps.


INSTRUCTIONS

THIS IS FOR ROOTED PHONES ONLY…..xHDPI & HDPI ONLY

Do not ask me how to root your phone, I will not tell you.


Install, Apply in Themes Setting, Reboot. If you get an error message saying the theme was not compiled correctly perform the following:


Apply System Theme

Reboot

Apply Carbon Glass

Reboot (to complete Theme instantiation)


If the wallpaper does not change (very common), just reapply the theme and it will. No reboot is required after that step.


*REBOOT AFTER APPLYING TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING GETS APPLIED…even after updates*


*DO NOT MOVE TO SDCARD….WILL CAUSE ERRORS*


If you have no idea what that means then PLEASE DON’T DOWNLOAD!

Feel free to email questions.


Thank You’s:

T-Mobile for the Theme Engine

CM/AOKP/BAMF teams for adding it to their ROMs

Scar45 for the Nav Bar and JB help, and his PCB theme for providing some ideas

NMiltner for the JB help

DJDarkKnight96 for helping me with the Theme Engine



What’s in CarbonGlass ICS JB Theme version 1.2:



  • This updates the Power/Reboot menu popup icons that were accidentally unthemed. Next update will be adding a lot of internal app themeing.
