I used to have B4A version 11.5 with Android SDK 30. My application which I use only for myself worked fine.
But I made a mistake and upgraded B4A and Android SDK to the latest versions.
And now I can't go back to old version because I need old Android SDK that have resources with Android 30.
There are 2 main reasons that I want to go back.
1. Compile time. It takes sometimes 5-6 minutes to re-compile my application. Especially when I want to change between release and debug compilation
2. Size of the application. See the picture below for the same application compiled with both B4A versions.

It used to be 1 file classes.dex now there are 11!
It is ridiculous. I don't blame B4A for size of the app or the time it takes to compile with small changes to the project because it is probably Google with their latest SDK.

So I am looking for the old Android SDK with resources with Android platform 30.
I wish that Erel kept the links to the old SDK's and old B4A versions.

I would appreciate any help.
