TL:DR; version ;)

  • my app should run without user interaction (autostart etc works)

  • it should update itself (via apk) without any user interaction

  • rooted devices are possible

.

problem:

  • querying a newer apk from a server works
  • when starting the apk with a (view?) intent, the "install app" prompt pops and needs a user confirmation

How do I solve this without any user interaction?

http://code.google.com/p/auto-update-apk-client/ This seems to be a solution, but there must be better approach.

I already found this: Install Application programmatically on Android

but that doesn't solve my problem.
