Android :: Which Android Sdk Version To Release To Market?
Jan 12, 2010
I want to release an app on the market. It uses nothing new from the 2.0 release like bluetooth for instance and it works well in every emulator using version 1.6 to 2.1.My question is upon version of the sdk should I distribute my application to make it compatible with all devices running 1.6, 2.0 or 2.1?I only have a physical device running 1.6 to test it, but as I say, it uses nothing fancy and works well on emulators using API levels 4, 5, 6 or 7.

I want to release a demo version of my app. I added a restriction that the app could only be used 5 times by storing a counter in the db. However a user can easily uninstall and install the demo again! What the best way to manage this?

I was wondering what people do to limit the phones that can purchase my app on Android Market. I image I can limit this to some extent by using the API levels in the manifest but can I limit my app to just Droid/Milestone? I have only tested the app on these phones so I can't be sure that it will work on others. There are known issues with the Milestone and choosing an OpenGL config, among other issues, that I had to work around so it's not unreasonable that other phones can have similar issues. Also how do you do dynamic licenses via http post?

I've been using Take5 for quite awhile now; however, recently, I decided to flash to the official 1.6 OTA release just out of curiosity. After playing around with it for a little while, I decided to flash back to Take5 (because I missed having root and I really don't like TouchWiz). After flashing back to Take5, I noticed that my baseband was still the new one (T939UVJE2) and I thought to myself, alright I got the new baseband out of this. Anyways, on to Swype... The official 1.6 OTA release includes a newer version of Swype than Take5. Upon testing it, I found it to work a little better than the one in Take5 (slightly more accurate and a little faster). Could someone please send me the new version of the swype apk that's included in 1.6 OTA release?

I have recently updated about 10 apps manually that I already had on my G1, since I saw them relisted in the market (again) but higher up on the "by date" tab.This system is horrid.If a user has an app and a new release comes online it should not only notify the user it should offer to auto update and the first screen that pops up should be a release notes screen so we know why it was updated and what to look for.Another more minor annoyance is that devs seems to lose track of download counts and comments in new vers. This is much more minor, but useful to both the community and the device.If anyone from Android peeks in here, hopefully this makes a list of suggested improvements.

I am developping (for my company) an app included on a project that will have 2 versions:
- 1st simple version to download using a OTA server, clients accesss to an URL to download.
- 2nd version more complex to be published on the Market.
The question here is that the process to publish on the Android Market is under bureaucratic internal process and it takes a long time, so the idea do reduce the time to market is to provide an OTA version.
There is any possibility for users that download application via OTA to upgrade the application for version published later on the Market? (Both Application will be signed with the same key).

Been using SwiftKey beta since Swype stopped working consistently and I got a notice this to upgrade to a final version (directly in advance of the Market release next week. It's definitely worth and it's learned my input habits so I hit just one button for most words. Just thought I'd let other users know.

I uploaded a new release of my app.
I downloaded the new version from the Market to try it out and I got the new binary, it also state V1.3.0, which is the new version. The description is from the release before that.
Very strange. When looking at http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.newsrob I see the old version V1.2.1 and the old description.
When looking at a G1 where the old version is installed it doesn't provide me with the option to upgrade it.
I followed the same steps as the weeks before. The Market has changed and I could use new options (DRM, not paid as I am not from the US/UK), but I kept the old options.
Meanwhile the old description is also in the developer's console (which I will change again right away), but it says 1.3.0 and when re-uploading the apk it says "The new apk's versionCode (130) in AndroidManifest.xml must be higher than the old apk's versionCode (130).", which is fine, well kind of.

The strange thing is, the only way for me to get this update is to re-flash the phone with the RUU WWE 2.10.405.2 file, but as soon as i do a factory reset the market will no longer update to the new version, strange to say the least.Could everyone please list the country, firmware and market version, this may help to find a reason for this strangeness.

following on a recent topic posted here is my question- how can I find out which version of Android Market am I running? If I go to Market and press "menu" button on the phone none of the options answers to my question.
My second question is- where is the "Update all" button in the Market. I can not see it anywhere.I am running Froyo 2.2, Orange branded Desire, stock ROM.

I want to implement the versioning feature for my application manually. For that I intend to compare the application version currently installed on the device and the application version present on android market. I can get the installed application's version using PackageManager , but how to find out the version of the application on the android market programatically ?

Two days ago, we uploaded a new version of the full version of our app (SpecTrek) to the market. Improvements include support for QVGA and WVGA screens.
We changed nothing in the "Developer Console" (Language: en_US, "All locations" selected).
Now we have received the first complaint of a Droid user who cannot find the full version on the market. The light version (that has not been upgraded yet) can be found ok. The good news is that the light version seems to work on the Droid, something we couldn't really test (except for some simulator runs on 2.0).
So presumably we did something stupid in the upgraded version. I can only assume it must be something in the manifest, as it seems unreasonably to assume the market software looks at anything else in the apk.
The only change in the manifest (besides versionCode/versionName) is the following:
CODE:.....................
There is also a "uses-sdk" entry, but that didn't change: <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="3" />
Is there anyone with a Droid that can verify the full version is not available to them (searching for 'SpecTrek' should find both the light and full versions)?

I just installed the new version of AdFree from the market and they finally got rid of the annoying bug that made it a pain to update (for those that don't know it blocks most ads in rooted android phones). Just a heads up to my fellow adventurers in Rootland...

As we know, the apps in the apple app store has a unique itunes link, and we can fetch app data about the app from app store through the link.I am wondering how can i achieve this in the android market, just like the website http://www.androlib.com/ did?As long as I know, each app in the android market has a ID, which just like "com.gabrouze.magic", and the QR Code can be viewed in "http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=qr&chs=135x135&chl=market://search?q=pname:com.gabrouze.magic".

I was wondering if the market checks if the application can be installed on the device. For example, if I have an Android 1.6 and if I try to install an application with :"<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="7" />" on its manifest. What will happend ?

My set CPU won't update to the new version on market I had a different app do this and I had to uninstall it and reinstall it to fix it. I'm hesitant to do that for this app cause its a paid app and I don't want to pay twice to reinstall it. Any ideas to fix this would be great.

I used to be a C/C++ programmer before getting in to android. I am not sure how people maintain 2 versions of a program without using #ifdef preprocessor macros. Right now I am changing the package name in eclipse and changing the code manually, but this seems really inefficient. Can anybody suggest a good way of having 2 or more projects that share most of the code?

I'm planning on getting LockBot when I get my EVO and I was wondering, what's the difference between the free version and paid version. I basically want the Moto Droid lock screen on my EVO for the slide to toggle sound on/off feature due to the lack of an external switch on the EVO. Would I be best to get the paid version or will the free version do that?

I have a problem with firing an activity that extends MapActivity. When it gets called, it throws a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError... not sure what this is supposed to mean. I think something goes wrong with the external implementation of the maps API (maps.jar). Has anyone come across that problem? Here's the srack trace:
