Without downloading one from the market
Thanks
really don't remember, but i don't think so...
That's very unusual! I just want to browse the contents of the SD card (or the phone memory if there is any) in order to install an apk file!
No file manager is included in stock roms, there are plenty free ones on the market though.

I'm having a braincramp. Using my EVO, (not my pc) how can I browse my SD Card on my EVO? I transferred some apk files from my pc to my EVO via bluetooth and would now like to install them. Any suggestions?
Download a file manager from there market.
From Team HTC Evo.
Worked perfect using Astro File Manager. Thank you!
i accidentally erased HTC Facebook and Friend Stream, dowloaded Astro, placed apk files on SD card. It has the files and file size for each one. I try installing them, but after the instalation it tells me the installation wasn't done. Any idea what I'm doing wrong and how to correct. Thanks
I'm not sure if Astro supports root read write,try using Android Mate(free) or Root Explorer(paid).

I have an htc desire rooted and have a 4gb sd card.
i put the .apk file in the sd card and access it with file explorer in the mobile.
how can i install the .apk file directly to sd card instead of installing it in the mobile storage?
thanks
I don't think it's possible, but what you can do is install it normally and and then use Application Manager to move it to SD. (Apps to SD or a2sd)
Perhaps you already know this so sorry if i'm preaching to the quior!
Of course the ROM has to support this as well as the App. If i remember correctly i think this was supported officially from 2.2 onward. (Froyo). Custom ROMs, especially Cyanogenmods, usually have this feature working out of the box.
so is there anyway of doing it up to today?
Of course. It's called a2sd.

You should install a rom with app2sd or data2sd
I found a solution. Connect your phone to computer and use adb
Code:
adb install -s /patch/to/file

Hi here an odd way by the way:
as far as I know in the mixui10ml (as a custom rom 4 xperia ray search 4 it)there is such ability but u should unzip it and find and test apk files and install them to find out which one do such thing
I personally do other work ... copy all apk file in to my new downloaded custom rom and replace them and it works great!
and i should that point this apk isnt like apk2sd & other silly apk... it added in to system as a property and automatically run whenever an apk install.
its the only *(hard but real) way* that i find by searching in 2 years!!! sorry 4 my poor EN just want to help!
at last I find the name of that apk!!: "package installer.apk"!

Astro is the best ever ever ever ever ever 100% made
I transferred some game setups in my memory card through USB from my PC. I want to install them but couldnt find file manager or access to memory card.
I just bought my phone yesterday so please explain me in detail if possible.
I apologize if my post is silly or if already you have discussed on this issue.
Thanks in advance
There is no default file manager. Download ES file explorer from play store or any other file manager.
Use HTC Sync's Application Installer.

Can anyone confirm if APP2SD works on this phone, chances are slim, but we never know until we try.
Why shouldn't it???

APP2SD ran fine on my Note1 but not on the Note2 - it is an excellent app. ES file explorer, while also a very good app, has no move to SD card function that I have ever found. What are you talking about??

you can move it by open the file on you phone from pc and go to backup and move to the sd card np at all or from your phone same by going to backup open file and press and hold the file and choose move to Sd Card thats all but i would not put anything else before ES file explorer,most APP2SD apps even pay ones dont move files from you phone to sd thats why ES file explorer is rated highly and is free,but anyway everyone got different ideas wich apps they like and works better on you phone
