[Qgis-user] QGIS on android final report

[Bob Basques]

Rob, 

Yeah, I figured out that Firefox didn't know what to do with the APK file.  The built in Browser understodd that it was a package file for installing.  I'm getting to the QGIS install now, I'm hitting a wall with installing the QT stuff now.  Marco is guiding me as he has time . . .

Bob, 
  
Try opening the link from the standard Android browser. Worked fine on my Desire HD, it asks you to open and install. 
  
Cheers,

Marco, 
  
Ok, excuse my ignorance, but what's the best way to install a APK file.  I have it on the machine via FireFox, but if I open the FireFox download dialog on the Android and click to open the file, I get a "There is a problem parsing the package." error from Firefox. 
  
Should I be looking for a file manager App, still working it . . . .
