I want to install the Chrome for Android on the Android emulator (running Windows 7 64bits). I tried accessing the google play market from the emulator, but it won't let me install.
I tried installing the chrome for android APK from here, but when I launch chrome it says the minimum supported OS is ice cream sanwdich 4.0
With FireFox it was very easy, I just grabbed the APK from their FTP server & run the adb install
command, one would think it should be even easier with chrome, but it's really not!
Any advice please?
You can install Chromium using the instructions on this blog post
It even provides a script for automating installing the latest apk
#! /bin/sh
LATEST=`curl -s http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-continuous/Android/LAST_CHANGE`
echo Latest Chromium Android at $LATEST
TMP_DL=`mktemp -t chrome-android.XXXX`
TMP_APK=`mktemp -t chrome-android.XXXX`
REMOTE_APK=http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chromium-browser-continuous/Android/$LATEST/chrome-android.zip
echo Downlaoding $REMOTE_APK to $TMP_DL
curl $REMOTE_APK -o $TMP_DL
echo Extracting ChromiumTestShell.apk to $TMP_APK
unzip -p $TMP_DL chrome-android/apks/ChromiumTestShell.apk >> $TMP_APK
adb install $TMP_APK
