Thank you. That part is starting to sink in after reading it 10 times :) My next problem/question is this: when I fix some bugs in the app do I need to re-sign it? I just assumed I did, but when I do "Export Signed Application Package", give it the password for the keystore (the keystore location is the path to my .apk), I always run into a wall that says "invalid keystore format". Am I doing something wrong?
Oh, by the way, I work at the FSC :) Ken On Sep 12, 4:53 pm, Jack Ha <[email protected]> wrote: > Your app needs to be digitally signed. > > If you use Eclipse with the ADT plugin, skip to the Compiling and > signing with Eclipse ADT section.
