Removed the min sdk version tag from Manifest file and added <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.telephony" android:required="false"/> to the manifest file . We are getting following error "error: No resource identifier found for attribute 'required' in package 'android'" when trying to build the application. Any idea? When we create new Android project we have to specify the min sdk version. So I don't think if we remove the min sdk tag from manifest file is not going to make any change since the android:required="false" is present from 2.1.
