Signing an app, but not publishing on Android market -


the android system has flag called "unknown sources" allows install applications non-market sources.

if sign application described on android developer website (i.e. certificate created using private keys got google), , decide not publish application on android market, host on own site.

will application considered non-market android system ? still install "unknown sources" option turned off ?

"unknown sources" allows installation of applications via download links (.apk files browser) , has nothing code signing. applications need signed , should zipalign'd before posting them.

unlike other platforms (like blackberry), requirement application signed using private key control or own. recommend against using keys not own. if use private key other people can obtain, other people can post updates application system trust.

the short answer no, not install via own web site "unknown sources" disabled on device.
