Before attempting a manual installation of apps using the .

Method 1 to install the apk file in android mobile phone:
Step 1: Install File Manager
Android does not
natively come with any method of browsing the data on your SD card, so
you will need to install a file manager from a market. There are a large
variety of file managers available on Android, but my personal
favourite is ASTRO File Manager.
Step 2: Connect the android mobile phone and CPU using USB cable.
Step 3: Copy .apk file to SD card
Once you
have ASTRO File Manager installed, connect your Android device to your
PC using your USB cable. Mount the SD card and copy over the .apk file
you would like to install.
Step4: Install .apk
On your Android device, navigate to the .apk file using ASTRO File Manager and select it.
This will open a dialog box allowing you to install the app. Select “
Open App Manager“.
On the next two pages, select “
Install” and “
Install” again to install the .apk.
