Please post your *<supports-screens>* XML. I'm suspecting you have confused Dp with Px.
I'm looking here, and I'm seeing a lot of potential for confusion in the parameters: * http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/supports-screens-element.html * I'm not sure you can even specify a screen ought to be a minimum of 1280x720 px with those parameters. If it is even possible, I would expect the correct solution to be non-trivial. Thanks. On Monday, April 15, 2013 1:32:46 PM UTC-5, jtoolsdev wrote: > > You think I haven't read all of those?
