Hello all. I have never encountered this issue before, despite developing several apps. When I build a signed production APK using Android Studio, I get an app-release.apk file but it is rejected by Google Play, saying it needs to be zipaligned. When I verify the alignment using zipalign tool, I receive output like this:

But when I try to re-align it, I get this: 1881710 res/layout/notification_media_action.xml (OK - compressed) 1882121 res/layout/notification_media_cancel_action.xml (OK - compressed) 1882599 res/layout/notification_template_big_media.xml (OK - compressed) 1883341 res/layout/notification_template_big_media_narrow.xml (OK - compressed) 1884066 res/layout/notification_template_lines.xml (OK - compressed) 1884941 res/layout/notification_template_media.xml (OK - compressed) 1885562 res/layout/notification_template_part_chronometer.xml (OK - compressed) 1885966 res/layout/notification_template_part_time.xml (OK - compressed) 1886366 res/layout/select_dialog_item_material.xml (OK - compressed) 1886793 res/layout/select_dialog_multichoice_material.xml (OK - compressed) 1887294 res/layout/select_dialog_singlechoice_material.xml (OK - compressed) 1887796 res/layout/support_simple_spinner_dropdown_item.xml (OK - compressed) 1888153 res/menu/menu_login.xml (OK - compressed) 1888500 res/mipmap-hdpi-v4/ic_launcher.png (OK) 1891688 res/mipmap-mdpi-v4/ic_launcher.png (OK) 1893712 res/mipmap-xhdpi-v4/ic_launcher.png (OK) 1898144 res/mipmap-xxhdpi-v4/ic_launcher.png (OK) 1905220 res/mipmap-xxxhdpi-v4/ic_launcher.png (OK) 1914757 resources.arsc (BAD - 1) Verification FAILED Ultimately, it appears that my APK cannot be aligned by zipalign? I am using these options: -f -v 4 to align and -c -v 4 to verify. Is this a known issue with zipalign, or have I made some kind of insane error?
