Running applications through sdcard

I have put my compiled application in /data/data folder of my android. And I can run it through terminal emulator. How to add that application to "Applica开发者_开发问答tion list". So, that I can see it as an icon.

Thanks

You have to "run" the app to install it. Use a program like Astro to browse to it and click the app to install it. This will place the icon in your application list.

Update

If you want to install via the terminal emulator, you have to do the following (note: you need to be root on your phone to do this).

1. Place the .apk on the root of your SD card (for simplicity)
2. Type "su"
3. cd into the destination of your .apk (in this case it will be cd /sdcard)
4. Use "install "name of .apk" /"destination"/"name of .apk"
