[4.26] Cannot package for android

DownToCode · December 4, 2020, 8:23am

Hi everyone,

I am having a hard time packaging for android on UE4.26. I keep getting the same error over and over no matter what I do.
My entire environment is set up to package for android below 4.25 as well as “for and above” 4.25 so I know the problem isn’t some missing environment variable or SDK/NDK installation. I was actually able to package for android up to 4.26 preview 6 but since preview 7 and with the 4.26 official release I cannot package.

This is the error I keep getting:


UATHelper: Packaging (Android (ASTC)): Z:\app\src\main\java\com\epicgames\ue4\GameActivity.java:3217: error: cannot find symbol
UATHelper: Packaging (Android (ASTC)): powerManager.addThermalStatusListener(getMainExecutor(), new PowerManager.OnThermalStatusChangedListener() {

Has anyone seen this?
Many thanks in advance.

I asked on the Unreal Slackers ar-vr channel and got this reply:

newer version of android NDK has that function
4.26 updated the NDK again to higher than 4.25

Try to update android studio

I installed the 4.26 Preview and had this error. Than i made this tutorial UNREAL ENGINE 4.25.1 PACKAGING FOR ANDROID TUTORIAL UPDATED! - YouTube and it works. Than I update to 4.26 Release and had the Error again. Than I switched between my old Codeworks SDK and the SDKs i installed from the tutorial and now it works again. I dont know why… it tooks me a day… maybe it is problem with the “Accept SDK License”

Hi. I have launched on my android device, and I got this error. (When I package, I have this error). I open Android Studio (3.5.3) and install SDK API lvl 29 (it’s Android Q). Next I try again package my project. And it worked! )

Just downloaded android sdk 29 and everything worked fine

Has anybody tried to use GooglePAD (Google Play Asset Delivery) to try and package a game using App Bundles rather then APK’s?

anonymous_user_9fcfb11a1 · February 27, 2021, 10:22am

Is there any solutions to this yet? I’ve reinstalled all my android SDK and NDK but still nothing

Thanks! I’ve been trying to find the solution for so long

Working configuration for Unreal Engine 4.27
Only two checkmarks in “SKD Platforms”

And some checkmarks in “SDK Tools” with latest command-line tools

Not sure that Cmake options make sense

Starkium · August 4, 2022, 8:20pm

what is your set up in ue4 settings with these?
