RE: Building Android Apps
Peter, This is because the Version Code(standalone setting==>Android) is numerically lower than the currently installed version. Either up the Version Code or uninstall/reinstall the app. Other issue you can run into: (Inconsistent Signing error) 1) When doing "test" installs if you move to another PC/Mac/VM the "Test Signing"(standalone setting==>Android) key pair is specific to the box. To solve this you need to either go back to the original OS or uninstall/reinstall the app. 2) If you install a Signed version over a Test Signed version or vice versa you will get the same error. The solution is the same. Either use the same signing or uninstall/reinstall the app. Ralph DiMola IT Director Evergreen Information Services rdim...@evergreeninfo.net -Original Message- From: use-livecode [mailto:use-livecode-boun...@lists.runrev.com] On Behalf Of Peter Reid via use-livecode Sent: Wednesday, October 09, 2019 7:26 AM To: use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Cc: Peter Reid Subject: Building Android Apps I've been building Android apps using my iMac for some time.

Re: Building Android Apps
It means you are trying to install or push a build with lower version or version code than the one already on it. If it still not works after changing your app version, then remove it from the device and then push it to it again.

Peter - This is intended as the definitive and up to date guide to getting set up for Android app building with LiveCode: http://lessons.livecode.com/m/2571/l/625198-livecode-and-android-studio <http://lessons.livecode.com/m/2571/l/625198-livecode-and-android-studio> If it is not up to date, if you try it and fail, if you get some mysterious error etc please leave a comment on the lesson. We will investigate and update the lesson if needed.

Building Android Apps
I've been building Android apps using my iMac for some time.
