Need help with app publishing! - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I've recently just made myself a little ebook app for the android and it is ready to be published to Google Play. However, I have a problem with the formatting. I only have a folder with all the contents of the app in it, some of the files in it include app.xml, pictures (jpg files), html files for different pages, and icons (png). Look at the screenshot below:
How do I upload these contents as an app to Google Play? Or do I have to convert all of them to a specific file? If so which application should I use? I tried Android SDK already, didn't work. Thanks all!

how to make an ebook app for android

You can upload only *.apk files at Google Play.
I mean compiled-ready apps.
That's the way you publish them...

Meh, that's the old test .apk, it is full screen but it overshoots the screen by 20px - still sucks.
Search for "iGo.8.4.2.139242.DT_240x400.b6" and grab the first file that pops up in the search. - this is the PRIMO version (same as the one above, but final).
You can get AMIGO version from:
http://samsung-i5800.org.ua/applications/336-igo-my-way-gps-navigator-dlya-nashego-lyubimca.html
Has better menu and takes less space in internal mem, still uses the same maps and is basically the same code (8.4.2...)

The second one did the job.

You need to put the iGo folder on the root of the sd card and then install the app, first the larger and then the smaller one. when you download maps, put them in the iGo/content/map folder, and thats it.

You can not download apk directly from market to a PC.
You can find sites like getjar.com or many other that post free apk files.
Another thing you can do is download to your Android phone, extract it or
I use Astros file manager and backup the apk.
I do this to get apps for my tablet that's not avaiable from market.
Something your brother can do is use Market enabler, it trick the system into thinking
he has a US carrier and most apps will show up
hello.
he is in a country that he can not connect to the market at all. So market enabler will not be any help.
if i download them to my phone, in what directory can i find the apk ???
and is there a way to download them to me phone but not install them on my phone ??? (just to pick the apk ?)
thank you for your help.
Get it from appbrain.

If you want to get the apk files of you installed apps, you'll have you back them up (there are many apps which do this). You can place the apk files anywhere on your sd card (or internal storage depending on device) where you can find them.
hello
i have tested with appmonster but it seem that it stores all the versions of the apps (even last versions before updates).
what app is best for thet and that stores only the latest version of each app ?
thank you

You could try this: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.agilesoftresource&feature=search_result.
Try Astro. It's simple, backs up only what you want, and seems to be a good option for what you need. I personally use Titanium Backup, but that's more advanced and has more features than you need. Astro would be the simplest way of doing what you need.

Depending on the app, look in System/app or also Data/app to find the apk's after being installed.
Use something like Astro to backup your Applications and then send the apks.

Samsung app store

I Googled this and failed. I found some download sources but they were for other phones and did not work. I tried following some links to the samsung store and while I can find the apps, I can't find the freaking app store app download anywhere. I want the Polaris app for work. I'm sure this post qualifies as dumbest post of the day...sorry.
Edit: Never mind I downloaded a stock rom and extracted the Polaris apk.

I did. You will have to rip apart every apk in the os to find it. It is not just one apk. It's built into the whole OS

Youtube Vanced-Virusless?

Hey There!
I just have downloaded "Youtube Vanced" via an apk file (my device is not rooted) from this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71133073&postcount=3
And I was wandering if this apk file or this app has a virus due to all of the articles about loapi and other viruses that "hide" in apk files.
Does this app has a virus or not? And can I download apps (apk files) which are published in XDA without with no fear?
Thank you all!

It does not have a virus. You can download the original APK and the mod APK. Then decompile both and do a comparison to see what has changed.

Well, no matter where the APK is, it could have some malware in it. Even in google play store you might have downloaded an application that you have been using for years and then suddenly in some update the developer adds a malware into it. You would think people would complain if some app has a malware in it though, so let others test them first
Anyways, all I can say is that there is no virus. I've figured out the mods myself so you can hit me up with a PM if you have any questions about them
Sorry for the necro of this post but Vanceapp has a trojan in their manager apk.
I got infected and then scanned...
