Android Question update problem ...

[Tomas Petrus]

I am trying to update to new version of my App:

I am pretty sure I didnt messed up the signing keys.. (how can I check ?)
Package name is OK.

But when I try to update it in the phone in release it said that appplication cannot be installed.
Uninstall and install work normally.

When I upload it to google play it said:

Error
You can't rollout this release because it doesn't allow any existing users to upgrade to the newly added APKs.

Dunno whot to check or how to proceed, some aps that have few users I can make new package name... (I dont want to...)
but some have 1000+ users... so I cant do that.

And I dont have a glue what could be the problem.

Thanks for any lead.

using 8.30 still since last update of the aps I didnt upgrade B4A yet.

crap .....
found it .....
its the version numbers....

I used 3.21, 3.22 etc then there were some minor changes so I did 3.221, 3.222 etc.
And now when I try to go back to the old way 3.23 I am busted...

So I have to keep the 3 number after the dot. otherwise it doesnt work...

Found one app I cant update and it seeems its not about versioncode...
so question remains what to check ?

Is this the only information you see?

Check your manifest.xml - it sounds like something in there is now excluding it from being installed to a lot of devices. Don't check the Manifest Editor - check the actual manifest file for something which is either excluded or maybe a new permission required or SDK version.

Watch out for version codes - they need to increase...

Maybe post your manifest.xml file but with any identifying info. or codes removed or overwritten

Erel: yes the phone just cant update with no other info.
the error from google you commented was in case where I messed up versions and google thought I am uploading older version. but should at least tell me in some other way...

.. found it the app was done in release with debug key...by mistake... and it got uploaded to google play signed with the debug key....
I thought that this is not even possible...

At least this was just app in testing mode ... 4 downloads..
So I unpublished it and publish with the right signing key under diferent package name.
