I know this has been asked around the place quite a bit, but I haven't read an answer on xda and this place seems to be the best place to get answers, so I'm going to ask it...
Is it possible to run up Android 2.1 or 2.2 on the emulator with the market? I've got 1.5 and 1.6 running fine but haven't worked out how to get 2.x working. It's really bugging me that I can't find a good answer as to whether or not it is possible.
And if not, can someone tell me why?
Thanks in advance!
BTW: my first post!

It seems that this is the first time I start a new thread.
Hi, all. I want to know how to install two versions of one same application at the same time.
As a matter of fact, I want to install Opera Mini 4.2 China Version and Opera Mini 4.2 Internaional Version at the time. But...Since Opera Mini 5 makes it difficult to describe the question, here takes HelloWorld.apk as an example.
Well, there are two versions of the application "HelloWorld": 1.0 and 1.1. (This is just an example)
I have installed HelloWorld 1.0 on my phone, and when I try to install HelloWorld 1.1, the 1.0 version will be replaced. But...I want to have both of them installed on my phone. That is to say, there will be two "HelloWorld" icons in the app drawer.
I use APKTool to extract the com.hello.world.apk into some "text" files, including an AndroidManifest.xml and a lot of *.smali files. In the AndroidManifest.xml, I saw this:
<manifest package="com.hello.world" versionCode="100" versionName="1.0">
I chaged the value "com.hello.world" to "com.goodbye.world". Then I re-build the apk file and transferred it to my phone.
I installed the modified package, it was successfully installed and I see two "HelloWorld" icons in my app drawer!
I try to launch the HelloWorld 1.0, it succeeds.
I try to launch the HelloWorld 1.1, it FCs immediately.
Well, this is my situation. How can I make both of them launch-able in my phone? Is it possible? What should I modify apart from "package" filed in AndroidManifest.xml?
Thanks a lot.

Well I'm not an android programmer but if I'm understanding you correctly you did the following (in the order I'm listing them):
1) Installed helloworld 1.1 (which over-wrote v1.0)
2) Opened the APK for helloworld 1.0 and made the manifest change
3) Installed the modded helloworld 1.0 on your phone
From a programmer point of view (just not with Android), if you followed the above scenario what is happening is HW1.1 installs it's files which are updated versions of the previous one (why else install an update). When you modded the HW1.0 you only changed the name and nothing else.
What is happening is when you go to install the modded version it's overwriting the newer files with the older ones since the phone is assuming the modded app is an entirely new program and allows the process to occur. This is why the modded one works and the 1.1 won't since the files it needs are the wrong version.
The only option of really have is to mod the actual program to look for different filenames, but without the source code to that app, that isn't going to happen.
Basically you need to have version 1.1 use the default files, and with the modded 1.0 you need to tell the software to "look" for the updated filenames (just don't forget to rename the actual files too).
Short of all that, as far as I know your SOL.

Great thanks to your reply. But...
Android uses .apk files to install and run the application. When installing an apk file, the package installer just copys the apk file to /data/app directory and "register" the program in the system. The apk itself will not be "extracted" or anything else. That is to say, an apk file can be installed, and also can be run.
On the other hand, the apk will generate some files in /data/data directory when running. I am considering that it was these file that made the modded version FCs. I will try to look into these files to see will this works...
English is my second language, hoping that I did not made many grammar misktaks...
+1 on this topic. It's been a year and a half since the last reply and I've done a bit of searching online to find no answers. I anyone have some feedback on this? I'd ultimately like to use this to install two Google voice applications. I actually have an app from a blacked out version with a different icon. But if I install it it will overwrite the original Google voice app

I'd also like to know if that's possible. Even if it were possible, and an updated version of helloworld is relaeased (Say, HelloWorld v1.2), which version would it replace? Would it replace the (original) HelloWorld 1.1 or the (modded)HelloWorld 1.0?
Yes. Titanium backup. Profiles. These are the keywords.

It would replace the only legitimate version found, the unmodded one. The point of modding the APK is to make Android see it as a completely different app, and not think of one as an update to the other.

Hi
I would also like to do this for Google earth app I want to have both version 7.1.3 and 8.0.1 because the earlier version has more features but the latest looks more beautiful so I read the instructions from that link but it is way too complicated for a noob user like me plus judging from the last message it seems it hasn't been resolved so isn't there an app or xposed mod that does this automatically ?

You haven't actually... you know... told anybody what the problem was yet.
I'm running apps just fine on ICS.
You just have to make sure that you output the app FOR ics.
Download the latest version of the Dev kit and download the latest ICS sdk. (you should completely erase all of your old tools and any old version of Eclipse you may be running and just install everything new... that way you eliminate the possibility of some old plugin you have causing you problems.)

i need help in my ics tablet.i really want to play those beautiful java .jar games. I had tried JBED and J2ME but it always ask for force close !
As I've said to several people who have posted here rather than the correct forum for their device over the past few days, that's nice. However...
Post in the correct forum for your device.
Try phoneME emulator. But some apps msy not work.
I am Korean.
Can not speak English, the syntax may be wrong.
So I change the Korean to English using Google translate, the translation was strange.
Is Application of a "OpQuMizer" called.
"OpQuMizer" is Optimization Application only for korea's Qwerty Smart Phone "LG Optimus Q"
I Used LG Opitmus Q. But it's screen is dead.
So I chaged my cell phone to "LG Optimus Q2"
But, I want using "OpQuMizer" Application
So I download the source code
The source code by developers has been released.
I Opened source code by Eclipse
But It don't work.
Because Optimus Q was created in the Eclair.
And After Updating Froyo. So I open with Eclair SDK
But I don't have Android 2.1 Eclair's SDK.
Eclair SDK was not in SDK Manager.
So how can I get the Android 2.1 SDK?
- 한국인 분들은 이거 보고좀 대답해 주시면 감사하겠습니다.
옵티머스Q용으로 만들어진 옵큐마이저를 옵큐투에서 사용할려고, 이클립스로 열었습니다.
(옵큐투용 옵큐마이저가 있긴 한데, 제 마음대로 바꾸고 싶어서...ㅠ 차피 옵큐투마이저도 옵큐마이저를 기반으로 만들어졌습니다)
그런데 이클레어 SDK가 없으니 오류를 뿜내요;;
SDK 매니저엔 이클레어는 더이상 다운로드를 못하게 없애놧던데
어떻게 얻을수 있을까요...ㅠㅠ
I dont know much about the sdk but i found a link wich may help u its dealing with the sdk for eclaire so you might get finished with this stuff

hello guys,
i wanted to install Splashtop 2 on my galaxy 3...but that app is not compatible with i5800
basically splashtop connects to your pc having win 8 os and let you use the metro ui on your touchscreen like its a win 8 mobile! Its like team viewer but with windows 8 friendly touch!so we can use win 8 gesture directly
So i did following things to install the app!
1.search it on the market directly.But i was unable to find the app
2.Edited BUILD.prop and change ro.product.model to Nexus S. Then i searched the app on market and i found it but it showed that this version is not compatible with your device!
3.Then i download the apk to and transferred it to sdcard and installed it.But when i run the application it give this error:Unfortunately the application has stopped working(crash)
So can we install incompatibe apps on our i5800?
if yes then how?
Thank you
Um. Could be because our phones to low-a-hardware to support it?
no i dont think so...i tried running team viewer and it ran flawlessly!! and splashtop is same as team viewer with win 8 gestures!!!
hey
if it is not compatibe
use third part sites
google is our friend
