Hi,

To install an app from an external USB drive, you first need to enable Settings -> Security -> Unknown sources. Then connect your USB-drive and go to Settings -> Device connection -> USB Connectivity -> Detect USB device.

To install the apk, you then need to download a file manager from Google Play like ES File Explorer where you open the USB drive and tap the apk-file. The native file explorer will not let you do this i'm afraid.
