I’m currently trying to deploy a packaged game to a tablet. It always fails with this error:
ERROR: Installation of apk 'D:\Projects\Poppy and Buddy 5.1\Binaries/Android\PoppyAndBuddy419-Android-DebugGame-arm64.apk' failed: [INSTALL_FAILED_OLDER_SDK: Failed parse during installPackageLI: /data/app/vmdl1288049398.tmp/base.apk (at Binary XML file line #8): Requires newer sdk version #33 (current version is #29)]
No matter what I do, the text of that error never changes. The 33 and 29 parts are always the same.
This is despite trying every version of the android sdk from 8 to 14.
Changing target or minimum sdk in the project settings also doesn’t affect it, at all. I’ve tried from 23 to 33 with no change in the outcome.
I followed the setup guide exactly, then when nothing helped I deviated and started working through different versions of the SDK, but that error literally never changes.
I also ran updates on the device, which runs android 10.
What now? Switch to unity?
