Android Question Options? Android v4.4.2 tablets

I just upgraded to B4A 11.8 and started getting the error (Expected Android API level 21+ but was 19). Searching the forums it appears that this is caused by the okHTTP libraries that now require Android 5+ to run. I have 30 7" Asus Android tablets running my software. The are older, but work fine. They are currently running 4.4.2. Is my only option to stay with the older version of B4A? Or will the older okhttp libraries work with the newer 64bit version of B4A?
Thanks, Jim

I think you can post a wish for reel to keep an older version of okhttp in the next release.

Between you can try this workaround :

Latest OkHttpUtils working with Android 4?

Hi all. I have an old widget of mine running on an Android 4.4 device. I have to update it now, but I recall something changed in the underlying lib which causes current OkHttpUtils working from Android 5 up. So my question is: which is the latest B4A version sporting a copy of OkHttpUtils...

YES!! That's perfect! Thanks bunch. I'll keep a copy of the older okhttp files and replace as required when I upgrade. I was really not looking forward to replacing all those tablets $$$$. Thanks again.
