How to check if install is from Samsung app store

Question

I know how to check:

 packageManager.getInstallerPackageName(pContext.getPackageName())

I know from other StackOverflow answers and my apps in the wild that:

Google Play returns: com.android.vending

Amazon returns: com.amazon.venezia

If I install with adb I get null value returned from getInstallerPackageName(). Anyone know how to test if install is from Samsung App store?

Answer 1

According to the Samsung forum thread getInstallerPackageName will return null:

Actually, the value is not being set (the method returns null) when you download an application from SamsungApps. This method is an unreliable source of information in this case.

This is also what I get using a small test application.
