Technically, you only need your private key. But since there is no easy way to extract it from the JKS keystore (you *could* convert it to PKCS#12 and then use OpenSSL to extract it), you'd better backup the whole keystore. That said, it would be nice if there were some way to recover from losing your key. If you can prove you are you to the Android market (Google account authentication, phone call verification, show up in person, etc) you should be able to replace the key/certificate tied to your account. I don't think it's possible with the current security model though. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
