I tried to test pre-installed application with robotium on emulator. For this work I need to resign the pre-installed application with the same certificate signing of my testing project. Then I follow some steps below:
1. Log in as root: adb root 2. Remount: adb remount 3. adb pull /system/app/X.apk (Replace X with the name of the application) 4. Resign X.apk <http://code.google.com/p/robotium/wiki/RobotiumForAPKFiles> so that it has the same certificate signing as the test project 5. adb pull /data/system/packages.xml 6. Open packages.xml and remove: <package name="com.X"> ..... </package> 7. Push packages.xml back to device: adb push packages.xml /data/system 8. Restart your device 9. Push the resigned X.apk back to the device: adb push X.apk /system/app I completed 7 steps above and when I was in step 8,I type adb reboot in the command line,but it didn't affect. I skiped step 8 and executed step 9 .It succeeded.However,it pointed out "application of X is not installed on your phone". so where is the problem or I have to use a real pyhone? thanks, qing -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
