How to install applications on Android without Market (apk)?

How to install applications on Android without Market (.apk)?

For the classic installation of applications on Android devices, you need, in addition to the Internet connection, a Play Store account (former Android Market).

If you do not have the internet on your phone or Android account, you can download the application to your computer and transfer it to your phone via Bluetooth, USB…

These applications have a .apk extension (it's like .exe in Windows) and are installed with a simple touch.

Now, at the factory, the system (Android) cannot install applications that are not from the Market, so I will show you how to install them.

Android Unknown sources

First, open "Settings" then "Applications" and uncheck the first option "Unknown sources". The full path is Menu -> Settings -> Applications and unchecks "Unknown Sources".

Android Security

On newer versions of Android, or on different devices, this option can also be found in security settings. For example. on Android 6.0 Marshmallow system is under "Personal" and then in "Security". When you log in, you have the "Unknown sources" option.

Android Unknown sources

Now transfer the .apk file to the phone's memory card, via Bluetooth, USB…, or to the phone's internal memory.

Android .apk file

Launch a File Manager (such as the ES File Manager or the one that comes with the phone), find that .apk file and click on it, and finally "Install".

Android install .apk

After a few moments the application will be installed, and now click " Open " and that would be it.

Android open installed apk

Mobile Browsers

By Administrator
The Internet on mobile devices is becoming more popular and has more and more users. As mobile internet expands, so do mobile browsers. Although the devices themselves already have built-in basic internet browsers, new browsers are constantly appearing. The reason is that each of the programs brings something new and useful. For example, Opera Mini is most popular on older phone models that use Java applications, while on Android platforms Chrome , Firefox ,  Dolphin , and xScope are more represented.

Sony Xperia Z5 Dual Sim review [video + images]

By Administrator
The Xperia Z5 is another great flagship model from the Z family of devices that Sony launched in September this year, about a month ago. The case design is great . The side edges are slightly curved to make the phone fit better in the hand, and the back of the device has a fine finish so there are no glare and fingerprints.
