Android Question [SOLVED] Trying Out Android SDK platform 35 and opting out of edge-to-edge enforcement

[Ralph Parkhurst]

I would like to try my existing apps using API level 35, as discussed here.

But since I have not used the B4A SDK Manager before, I am struggling with the first step: 1. Download "android sdk platform 35" with B4A Sdk Manager

I have SDK Manager v4.1, but I am cannot see how to download. When I try the "Download SDK" it always points me to the installation page on the website.

What have I missed?

There are items in the list to download them.
You need to scroll far down to come to the not installeed items.

I just tried it a hour ago and it works fine.

Thank you very much for your suggestion, DonManfred. I truly appreciate your help. I carefully looked through the entire list, but unfortunately, I couldn’t find anything resembling the words "Android SDK Platform 35". It seems it might be missing from my installation.

No worries though. I just saw that Erel is planning to release an updated SDK package sometime in July, so I’m happy to wait for that.

I dont know if i should post here. I tried API level 35 with Erel's instrucions https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/targetsdkversion-35-and-opting-out-of-edge-to-edge-enforcement.167109/#content
The edge to edge is not disabled even i set <item name="android:windowOptOutEdgeToEdgeEnforcement">true</item> to false

[SOLVED] DonManfred was actually perfectly correct - The entry I was looking for became visible after I updated my Android SDK Command line tools and the required resources.

So if anyone else experiences the same issue, try updating these two components to see if Android SDK Platform 35 will appear. It worked for me

Required Resources contain \platforms\android-34 directory. Shouldn't that be a -35 directory??

you need to download it first

1. Download "android sdk platform 35" with B4A Sdk Manager.
2. Configure the IDE to use android.jar from platforms\android-35.

Thanks for the reply Don. Using the SDK manager, I downloaded "android sdk platform 35" and tried to compile, with this result:
