Installing Air 2.6 on HTC Legend - Froyo 2.2

This is a duplicate post but I think this is a better place to post this.
I have downloaded Air 2.6 SDK and copied runtimes\air\android\device\Runtime.apk to my HTC Legend and used Astro to install it but it displays an error message "Application not installed"
Any ideas on what I am doing wrong ?

The minimum requirements for AIR Android are mentioned below
Android devices
VGA: Dedicated Cortex A8 (ARMv7) 550MHz App Processor with Neon for A8 only; Hardware Vector FPU
WVGA: Dedicated Cortex A8 (ARMv7) 800MHz App Processor; Hardware Vector FPU
Google Android™ 2.2 or later
256MB of RAM
You can also find the system requirements for various platforms at http://www.adobe.com/products/air/systemreqs/
AIR 2.7 doesnot support ARM v6.

Cant install AIR for Android on HTC Legend

Is Air for android compatible with the HTC Legend?
I have a legend running Android 2.2, but the market will not allow me to install the app. I thought it might be a temporary error so I downloaded an APK from the web, it fails and says cannot install.
The legend plays flash content in 2.2, so i cant see why AIR wouldnt be supported?
Chris

Hi Chris,
I also have an HTC Legend, and I'm trying to make some tutorials about publishing from Flash Builder to Android.
I've notice this also, and I must say, it's a complete deception that AIR cannot support this phone, and certainly it seems that upgrading to the Android 2.2 was a bad option, since I defenitly was able to make a simple flash game, and some other exeperiments, and got them to work with AIR when this phone had Android 2.1
If it runs on Android 2.1, maybe it was a an upgrade that make AIR incompatible with this device on Android 2.2. Is there any way of running it, maybe forcing to install a AIR version that works.
I was starting to program on Flash Builder, and experimenting on my Legend, but now I stumbled on this.
Thanks,
Leonel

I cannot install Firefox for Android on HTC Desire (Froyo) via Android Market, as the download keeps restarting after reaching 60-75 % (around 7-8 MB out of 13.84 MB). Any help?

The download in Market restarts after some time. The notification bar displays download % as if the previous download is still in progress. That is, first time the download started, notification bar shows correct %. At around 70%, the download inside Market app starts again from 0 KB, and the notification bar shows avergae of the two downloads(35% when download in Market is 0%, 40% when download in Market is 10%).
This second download again disappears from Market, and a third begins, no error message nor any other warning is displayed. This time the notification bar shows average of 3 downloads!
No idea what is happening, this is my first time downloading firefox for mobile.

Sorry, I don't know why the Market app is failing to complete the download.
If it is still not working, you could try the FTP server link on this page, and see if it works any better:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android
You could also try downloading Firefox to your computer using that FTP link, and then search for instructions on how to "sideload" the app onto your phone over USB.

Cannot install AIr on HTC Desire with Froyo OS 2.2

I have an HTC Desire running Froyo 2.2 OS (OS supplied by O2 mobile company i.e. O2 branded phone)
Each time I try to install Air 2.5.1.1774 it downloads then tries to install; I get the message:-
Installation of Adobe Air unsuccessful.
Any advice please?

You need to choose "Charge Only"
Make sure you have Device Debugging enabled on your phone by going to Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging and ticking the checkbox.
Once your phone is properly connected and Android SDK is installed, then goto the folder where SDK is installed. You will find a folder named "tools" :
Launch cmd.exe
cd to the folder containing "adb" binary
Type "adb devices" ( This should list the device ID of your phone )
Type "adb logcat -c"
Try to download and install "Adobe AIR" from Marketplace on your phone (with USB cable connected)
On command prompt, type "adb logcat" and mail us back the output.
I found a page with detailed instruction for setting up Android SDK for HTC Desire : http://myhtcdesire.com/tutorials/how-to-install-the-adb-driver-on-windows

Is Firefox out for HTC Legend with Froyo?

I use a HTC Legend running on Android v2.2 (Froyo). I do find the application in Android market yet the app cant be installed on my device due to Compatible issues. Will there be a Firefox version sooner that supports HTC Legend?
Please update me !

Firefox does not support the processor that runs your phone. It does not have the necessary functionality to run Firefox well. Firefox requires devices with ARM CPUs that support the ARMv7 instruction set.

Fennec not opening at all in my HTC Legend (Android 2.1)

Installation of Fennec Alpha was smooth; after downloading the apk file from this [http://firefox.com/m/alpha site]. My HTC Legend has 2.1 version of Android which reported the installation to be successful. I could see an icon also in the program list. However, on click of the icon, a blank black screen opens with a title bar named Fennec, but closes just after two seconds. No error is being reported by the application or by the OS. I even uninstalled and re-installed the browser to check again, but am seeing the same result.
Has this browser been tested on a Legend smartphone by anyone?
How to make it run on my phone?

Sorry, Fennec Alpha does not run on phones with ARMv6 processors, like the HTC Legend.
We have experimental nightly builds that you can try on the Legend, but please note they are not yet optimized for the Legend's processor or screen size:

How do I install Air 3.1 to a drive other than C?

Installing Air 3.1.0 on a Win XP sp3 computer with a partitioned hard drive. How I specify the location for program install so I can put it on D drive?

Hi,
Unfortunately this is not an option for the stand alone version of the runtime. An application would need to utilitze the captive runtime to allow for the AIR runtime to be installed in another location.

Installing .air file on Windows 7 64-bit

This batch command works in XP and in Windows 7 32-bit, but not in Windows 7 64-bit:
@echo off
REM
REM Set location to install to. (This dir must exist or install wont work!)
REM
set INSTLOC="c:\producthelp"
REM
REM Install help.
REM
AdobeAIRInstaller.exe -silent -eulaAccepted -location %INSTLOC% "Product Help.air"
(product name replaced with Product.) We are using the latest (today's) AdobeAIRInstaller.exe. We have tried using identical syntax to install other .air files from the Adobe site; they did not install either. Is there something simple we're missing here? Is there a known issue with installing .air files on 64-bit Windows 7? I couldn't find one at this site.

I think the reason you have had no reply is that no one has an answer. The only thing I can think of is to ask if the AIR file installs if you run it normally rather than from a batch file. If it does, then you know where the problem is but I cannot help you with that.

Chris,
I've been looking at some of the scripts you posted in other threads. I'm trying to install AIR 2.7 so as to run You Need A Budget. I am having the same issue (Mac OS 10.6.8) and the sample commands that were on the help page don't seem to have worked.
When I tried this command: "sudo chmod -R ug=rwx,o=rx /Applications/Adobe" it said no folder found, though I think that is my fault for having deleted the adobe folder. Will that require additional troubleshooting?
The other commands from the help page didn't produce much of an effect. I have accessed the install log and I can share that with you as needed.
Please let me know what else is required and if you would like me to open a new thread.
Thanks,
Nate

Well, I run the script but the error still remain.
So I read the topic suggested by Xenus989898 (this one http://forums.adobe.com/thread/782927?tstart=0) where you told to check the /Library/Frameworks/Adobe AIR.framework folder
I just deleted it and then everything work ! AIR installed succesfully.
Thanks a lot

Can`t install air on Red Hat v.5.3

I have the following error while install air:"An error
occurred while installing Adobe Air. Installation may not be
allowed by your administrator. Please contact your administrator"
I log in like root, so I have all permission. I cant see any
error or any log, so I don´t have any clue what to search for.
Any ideas.
Thanks in advance.

I've always had to actually *be* root to install. But then
again my machines are pretty locked down.
For what it's worth, did you try sudo ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
? (I understand that you're already an admin, really just curious
here)
This technote (
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb403123)
specifies how to create the installer log (just create an empty
file ".airinstall.log" in the same directory as your runtime
installer).
I'll try to get confirmation that this is still the proper
method for creating that log (it applies to AIR 1.0)

Hello Chris,
thanks for getting back to me. I managed to install the AIR using command line
and -silent -EULAaccepted options. Still having issues with installing Picaboo X
software, but i suppose it's a problem on their side as other apps are installing
without issues
thnx

Hi,
I'm sorry you're running into problems with the installer. Was there any additional log information provided? It appears that it's been truncated. When the installer runs, do you see any dialogs, progress bars, or errors? Finally, did you get any errors when you ran the AppleScript?
Thanks,

Please please help me install Air on my Mac

I am using a Mac os x 10.6.6. Have installed flash 10.2 and trying to install Air 2.5. Each time I try to install this it just opens and sits in my dock. Nothing else happens. I have tried the sudo commands (which I do not understand by the way). Have tried everything that I have found in other posts including running the Air Install Repair. I need this for the tracker on Elance. I contacted them and was told to come here. So I'll include all the images I was able to get and the log file.
This is all that happens when I tell Air to install:
Here is the image from my terminal when entering the psudo:
Here is the system log (could only send it in images, not able to past it):
Wish I could copy/paste so the writing would be bigger. Please any help would be appreciated. I am missing out on work because of this problem.

Hi,
Thanks for the detailed information. I've seen this occur a few times now and it's definitely frustrating. I've been trying to recreate this but I just can't seem to find the right environment. Would you be willing to do a save of your System Profile and email me ([email protected]) that file? It might help me determine what files you have installed that differ from mine or find a common denominator with other affected customers.
To work around this problem, try the following:
Download and mount the latest AIR runtime installer from http://get.adobe.com/air
Open the "Terminal" application found in your Application/Utilities folder
Copy and past the following command:
sudo /Volumes/Adobe\ AIR/Adobe\ AIR\ Installer.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe\ AIR\ Installer -silent -eulaAccepted
After hitting enter, you will be prompted for your login password.
Installation takes a few minutes. Look for output similar to the following:Adobe AIR is currently not installed
Installing version 2.5.1.17750
done
Once complete, close Terminal and install your Adobe AIR-based application.
Thanks,
Chris

Windows XP SP3. Unable to install AIR, any help?

Hello,
I'm trying to install AIR on my Windows XP SP3 workstation. I had 1.5.0.7220 installed, but the application wanted to update it so I downloaded the newest runtime. Tried to upgrade it but it wouldn't upgrade, kept saying Error 0. So I tried using this note: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/403/kb403150.html to remove it, but it wasn't in my Add/Remove programs, so I found this command you can run to uninstall it:
E:\Apps\Adobe Air>AdobeAIRInstaller.exe -uninstall
but it fails
E:\Apps\Adobe Air>Uninstalling Adobe AIR (all versions)
failed (consult log)
so I checked the log in %temp% and this is all it says
Error 1714. The older version of Adobe AIR cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group. System Error 1612.
=== Logging stopped: 9/16/2009 14:04:24 ===
Then I found a note saying to create the file .airinstall.log in your User dir and try reinstalling. This is what is in that log:
UI SWF load is complete
starting uninstall
Beginning install
Uninstalling product w/ GUID {00203668-8170-44A0-BE44-B632FA4D780F}
Error occurred; beginning rollback: [ErrorEvent type="error" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="1612" errorID=0]
Rollback due to error complete

runtime install entering error state: [ErrorEvent type="error" bubbles=false cancelable=false eventPhase=2 text="1612" errorID=0]
begin quitting
So in a last (probably stupid..) ditch effort, I deleted everything in my registry that I thought had to do with AIR and all the adobe air directores in my users folder and program files and ran CCleaner.
It didn't help, in fact it's exactly the same errors..
Any help?

On Windows, it is best to use the Add or Remove Programs control panel to remove AIR.
To install, update, or remove AIR, you need to have administrative privileges.
Here is the documentation on installing and removing AIR:

How do i update Installed AIR Applications? // General Questions

Hi,
first of all, i'm completly new to AIR. However, i made my way through your product documentation and i'm now able to deploy AIR and a AIR Application (SFDC Chatter) and register it.
Works fine so far, but some questions:
- How can i update installed AIR applications? If i just try to re-install it, the installer will fail with exit code "9"
-> How can i update them directly? If this is not possible
-> How can i uninstall AIR applications in a large enterprise environment?
- Where is the ARH Tool that is described in your product documentation?
- When installing AIR as SYSTEM User (I'm using SCCM) where is the logfile?
- Do you recommend updating AIR on a regular base? Are "older" applications compatible with newer AIR Versions?
Thanks for your replies!
Ben

Hi Ben,
I'd recommend taking a good look at our captive runtime option that is available in AIR 3.0 and higher. While you have to roll your own installer (and updater) this could be as simple as a zip/batch file combination. It also allows you to use the runtime that you prefer and not be dependent on what the user installs or uninstalls. You do have to be mindful of security implications, but it's definitely the way I'd go.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/air3-install-and-deployment-options.html
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/build/WSfffb011ac560372f709e16db131e43659b9-8000.html
As for updating, it should be as simple as increasing your app descriptors version number and installing again. This article explains how you can also use our update framework: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/air_update_framework.html
The ARH tool can be found here:
