Hi. Sometimes(most of the time) whenever we wish to switch to try another custom ROM, we have to wipe all data and hence all the downloaded app will gone. As a result of that, before we even flash new ROMs, we have to do a back-up of all the downloaded app, turning them into apk file into our SD card so that its easier to again reinstall those app.
My question is, is there any app that we can use to install ALL the apk files in our SD Card all at once in just a click of one or two taps? Because its tedious for us to actually install those apps one by one. Especially for me that have installed many apps in my Desire HD.
Thank you. =)
Well, your google backup restores all the market apps automatically, so you do not need to worry about those.
You can copy your apk files into /data/app/ in the rom zip file. Then you do not even have to install them, they will be ready to use immediately.
Oh yea.. I did not even thought of that. Lol. Thank you so much.

Hi,
I have some applications I want to save, I mean the APK file.
But I find them only on the android market, and doesn't see how to save the .apk file on my disk (for future use for example).
Do you know if the apk file is stored somewhere in the phone ?
Thanks
Is your phone rooted? It makes a difference. If not rooted you can use mybackup from the market to backup the apps. Never tried it and I am guessing it won't backup paid apps and only free versions. But it might.
If your phone is rooted you can find your apps in the data/app/ folder.
Once you have installed the App, look in /cache/download. Most apks will be in there.
You don't need rooted phone to save (backup) apk's. Just use MyPhoneExplorer which has the function to backup all installed programs (apk's) to computer (also backups SMSes, contacts, etc)

yes, the phone is rooted.
I checked with Estrong explorer in the folders data and cache and there's nothing ...
The idea is to keep the apk files somewhere when they are not directly available on the net, only using the android market.
Back them up on titanium backup then when you want them again just restore them using titanium again, you can restore them fresh or with your old settings, hasn't failed me yet

Look in data/app as I said. This is the location of all user installed apks. Unless you are using a ROM that uses a different location. Only familiar with sense builds myself. Or use a program that can backup apps. There were 3 mentioned in this thread.
apk with a manager go to system / app. they should be, and extract and save hello
Data/app or system/app?

Either or, depending on what you're after. Apps you've installed (e.g. from the market) will be in /data/app, system apps (e.g Sense and the apps bundled with it) will be in /system/app.

If the directories/files are not there then check that ES file explorer is configured to show hidden files.

For unrooted devices, using ES File Explorer:
1. Open ES File Explorer
2. Press Menu >> Manager >> App Manager
3. Long press the application and then press Backup
4. .apk file will be saved to /sdcard/backups/app/

If the the apps are on ur sdcard, plug in ur phone to computer and mount as disk drive and get it that way.
Or download "MyBackUp" or "Titanium Backup" from the market, backup ur apps and then plug in ur phone to computer, mount as disk drive and copy the backup file to ur computer. I think the MyBackUp file is called "reware" on ur sdcard.

Well my English is not so advanced so if i misunderstood the question, Sorry..
But i think u are asking that when i installed an app how can i extract it from my phone, in which directory the apks are?
So my answer is if you are rooted then use titanium backup app to send any email your apk files;
and if you are on a unrooted device then you should check this out..

You can use 'AndroZip' app from the Play Store (free).
Once you open the app, on the top toolbar you have option called 'Apps'
Clicking on it opens an AppManager. Now you can select to Backup multiple or all apps.
Once you are done go back to the main interface.
You can find the .apk files for selected apps in folder /mnt/sdcard/app_backup
Edit: You don't need to be rooted to do this.
You can also use Astro File Manager. Available for free from. The Google Play.
From the main screen go to Applications and backup.
Then select backup. Now you have apks of your applications on the SD card in the backup folder

The easiest way:
Android assistant app from Play store, in tools section there's tool for backing up. The .apk files are stored on sd card in Androidassistant_backup folder.

(Preface for noobs : /system and /data are two different partitions. Freeying up /system won't get you more intrenal memory, but /data does. Old apks rest in /system and updated versions placed in /data. You can replace the old apks using newer versions)
I heared Titanium Backup PRO does something like, but you can do this with any File Explorer with ROOT access. Its works 100% for Android Gingerbread 2.3.x , try on other versions.
### Do it on your own risk, I am not responsible for anything ###
1. Update the desired app to the latest version from Google Play Store
2. Open File Manager, Enable ROOT_ACCESS, remount /System as writable
3. Goto /system/app and backup the desired apk to sdcard
4. Goto /data/app and copy updated apk
5. Paste into /System/app
6. Note down the filename of old apk and delete the old apk
7. Rename the new apk into the old filename
8. You may encounter a FORCE CLOSE if the app was running in background
9. The updated apk in /data/app will be removed automatically
10.Restart your device, Done!
I replaced Playstore, Maps, Google Search ect..
Example: For PlayStore, updated apk will be com.android.vending-1.apk, and old apk is vending.apk
Hit thanks it it works, Thanks
Update title with "not noobproof", this is complicated and dangerous for people who don't know what they're doing.

you can also move apps to system partition to save space on data partition
just select 'convert into system app' in link2sd and then reboot
I feel dumb, it doesn't know what to use to install an apk... I've never had this issue before.
Try settings - storage - explore - downloads
And select your downloaded apk. If that doesn't work, download file explorer and select it from inside there. Idk why it sees it as an apk this way and not when you select open or from the notification.
I've never had to do that before... Maybe this is the first phone I've had longer than a day without flashing...
I downloaded a ton of APKs last night. When i found the apks in the file folder and ready to install. O was prompted to choose package installer or a different program

You should be able to just install the APK directly from your phone as long as you have unknown sources enabled. You can also install it using adb by using the following command: adb install filename.apk
Wasn't that easy. It doesn't know how to install it if you open the file from notifications or the downloads app.

I had the same problem at first, but I downloaded androzip and installed my .apks just fine. I only have two apps I side load old beta of fb and the chat enabler antaresone wrote to keep messenger in the native app.
Yeah to get it to install XDA labs I had to delete data for Package Installer under apps.
