It means that there is a content provider specified in the apps AndroidManifest.xml file that has not been given an "android:name" attribute. As described in the docs (http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/provider-element.html) the android:name attribute is mandatory. My guess is that the apk is built from broken code, and the developer has not noticed yet.
I suggest you contact the developer about your problem, and in the meantime try the previous release: http://www.tomgibara.com/android/moseycode/releases/0.2.0/installation On Tue, Sep 29, 2009 at 6:25 PM, wahib haq <wahib.t...@gmail.com> wrote: > > yes exactly i see this error message. what does it mean ??? > > On 9/29/09, Jack Ha <jack...@t-mobile.com> wrote: >> >> Run "adb logcat" and you should see the error message: >> >> W/PackageParser( 582): /data/app/vmdl43410.tmp (at Binary XML file >> line #10): <provider> does not specify android:name >> >> -- >> Jack Ha >> Open Source Development Center >> ・T・ ・ ・Mobile・ stick together >> The coverage you need at the price you want >> >> The views, opinions and statements in this email are those of >> the author solely in their individual capacity, and do not >> necessarily represent those of T-Mobile USA, Inc. >> >> >> >> On Sep 28, 2:26 pm, wahib <wahib.t...@gmail.com> wrote: >>> hi !
