how to install tpk from within the device?

I have an app compiled in Tizen Sdk and packaged as a .tpk file. I want to install this on a real device. The device I work with does not have USB OTG and I am not able to connect SDB on Ethernet for some reason. However I am able to copy the .tpk file to the Tizen device with a USB pen drive. Now my question is how to I install this .tpk? Please note that the device I run on does not have a file manager app, so I need a shell command to install.

Thanks.

Hi,

I am not sure, but probably, you will be able to do this using File Manager app. You just need to find the .tpk using the FM and tap on it. At least this works for .wgts but I am not sure about the .tpks.

Thanks Alex Ashirov but this device does not have a file manager app.. I need a shell command to install. Somebody suggested I use "pkgcmd"  to install but that command is not found on my device!

Please try /usr/bin/pkgcmd -q -i -t tpk -p <tpk file name>

I have tried this command, but it seems frozen after a very long period.

Even if I install the tpk from Tizen IDE, the same error still exists.

Please help!

Hi,

Did you tried to copy your tpk file to device manually and install it from the File Manager application on the device?
