Installing the Samples on the Target Device

You are here:

Installing the Samples on the Target Device

To install the samples, please make sure adb is in your path and then:

Windows: Double-click the install_samples.bat file in the tools subfolder.
Linux/MacOS/Cygwin: Run the install_samples.sh script in the tools subfolder.

This will execute the appropriate ADB commands to install all the sample applications and required data. After running the script the applications can now be found in the application list on the device.

If the applications do not appear, please look at the console output of the script as a pointer to what went wrong.

Note: If you have previously installed an earlier version of this SDK to your devkit hardware, you may receive errors such as:
[INSTALL_PARSE_FAILED_INCONSISTENT_CERTIFICATES]
If you see this error, uninstall the samples on the Tegra device by going to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications, then select the application you want to uninstall and press the Uninstall button. Try installing the samples again.

Note: This same error may result when installing modified, locally-built versions of the applications. Once you have used the prebuilt versions of the applications for initial familiarization, we recommend that you delete them from your device before building them locally.
