How to sideload Android apps to your BlackBerry PlayBook (Mac). Jul 22, 2011 - A few hours ago, a link to a beta version of the app appeared on the BlackBerry website. If you're on Windows, an easier way to do that would be to use DDPB installer. Note: Check out our guide on how to install Android apps on BlackBerry.

Before We Begin You’re going to need the following to sideload apps using this tutorial: (requires.NET Framework 2.0 or above and Java Runtime Environment 6)A.BAR file for the app(s) you want to sideload. Android apps start life in.APK format, so if someone hasn’t converted the file to.BAR for you, you’ll have to do it yourself.
There are many methods of doing this, but the easiest of them is uploading the.APK file to. This converter will produce a.BAR file which you can download.
A physical USB connection between your PC and your BlackBerry 10 device. In the Development Mode menu, toggle “Use Development Mode” to On.
If your device has a password, it will prompt you to enter it before enabling Development Mode. If you didn’t have a password set, it will ask you to set a device password. Make sure you remember this password! You’re going to need it later in the sideloading process, but you’ll also need it to remove the password lock afterwards. Once a password has been entered, it will tell you that Development Mode is enabled. Now, you can keep your device in the Development Mode menu, or write down the Development IP Address listed and quit the Settings app altogether – you’ll need this IP in just a moment. With Development Mode enabled, your device is ready for sideloading.
Let’s fire up DDPB – this is where you need that IP address and password I mentioned. On the left side of the window, you’ll see a “PlayBook IP Address” and “Password” field. Enter the device’s Development IP Address in the first field, and (rather obviously) the password in the second field. If, for whatever reason, you don’t have the Development IP Address at this point and can’t be bothered to go back into the menu, pressing “Scan” might find it, but I still recommend entering it manually. With the info entered, press “ Connect ”. If your OS version and PIN show up under the button, you’ve done everything correctly so far. Now we need to specify the.BAR file we want to sideload.
Press the “Add” button under “Apps List on PC”, navigate to the directory containing the app, select the file, and press “Open”. You can also select multiple.BAR files in one go if you’re sideloading more than one app.
For the purposes of this tutorial, I will be sideloading. ( Note: I should mention that it’s technically possible to double-click on a.BAR file and open DDPB like that, with the app already selected, but this has been known to produce some bugs, so I’m avoiding it in the tutorial). At this point, you can shut off DDPB, unplug your device, disable development mode, and remove the device’s password lock if you’d like.
