J-Mak · 11-29-2010, 01:57 AM

Real quick question: Can anybody tell me how to install apps from the SDK on a Mac?

Thanks.

Hey, thanks for the reply!
I've already rooted mine, however I accidentally deleted the custom menu, is there anyway to get it back?

Thanks.

Yes. Depends on how you deleted the custom menu, 2 of the options are: redo the softroot or install your menu (mynook.ru launcher, or nooklauncher (my fav)) via adb link

Hey, I just redid the softroot.
And nothing changes.

And it failed to install the menu

What do you mean when you say you "deleted" it. How?

Also, are you absolutely sure? Some things have changed since older softroots. Long-click (press and hold) on one of the icons and see if anything happens. If some little icons appear, you're still using the mynook.ru launcher; click on the "+" to add apps to the menu, and click on the "x" when you're done.

If nothing else works, there's always the nuclear option:

If this works and you can get adb going, installing apps is done from the command-line like this:
./adb install packagename.apk

Good luck!
