Hi thx a lot for these usefull tips!

But I have one little problem.
I have installed SDK 1.5. And it was no problem to install the four *.apk files. I started the market, registered an account and was able see all applications in the market.
The problem is every time I'm trying to download an application it says something like "Starting download". And after a while it times out.
Can anybody help me?

Thx
Jonas

Edit:
Found this on another board. Works properly!

1. Download the Android SDK (which includes the emulator) from ***URLs are hidden from guests, please register and login to view the hyperlink***.
2. Extract the downloaded zip.
3. Run a command prompt, and change to the 'tools' directory of the SDK (or add the tools directory to your path).
4. Type 'android list target'
5. Note the 'id' number of the '1.5' target (in my case it's '2')
6. Type 'android create avd -n enhanced -t 2' (substitute 2 with the target number determined above if required)
7. You will be prompted to create a hardware profile. This is optional, but I selected 'yes' and accepted the defaults for everything except RAM, where I gave it 256MB.
8. Download and unzip this image file.***URLs are hidden from guests, please register and login to view the hyperlink***
9. Copy the above file to the location of the enhanced.avd directory ('C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\.android\enhanced.avd' on Windows XP, and 'C:\Users\<user>\.android\enhanced.avd' on Windows Vista).
10. You're ready! Type 'emulator -avd enhanced' to run! Note: inital boot may take a few minutes!

If you get Java errors, you need to download the JDK for your system from ***URLs are hidden from guests, please register and login to view the hyperlink***

The same problem. The Market works, lets to choose the application but freezes on "Start downloading...", GTalk does not sign in. Also browser crashes on start with error "The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly".

SDK 1.5r3

Great, I've solved it!
The problem was in some closed ports on our lan firewall. Now everything works fine, except crashing the browser.

I've just connected the PC with the emulator directly to the internet (through the wifi) instead of our local network that has strict security rules. It seems that googletalk service needs some ports to be open for authentification or smth else. I'm going to work with the sniffer these days, I you want I could post here the required ports to be opened for google services.

Great work!!!

Any idea if this would work on an HTC Hero Handset?

I have a Malaysian handset where the Market Icon is not available turning my handset into an expensive brick that only runs the applications provided and the very limited set on SlideMe.

Any other thoughts on how to get hold of APKs from the market?

using the instructions from Jonas for downloading just the system.img file, i am able to get to the market and am also able to download applications. the problem is when i try to launch them they invariably throw an error. Each error is different, but none of the apps actually work for me. anybody else having this problem?

I'm using android 1.5 by the way.

thanks,

Jon
