Hi I see that there have been a few changes with Buzztouch, and apps are now defaulting to a newer version of the Android OS. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get apps created with the updated Buzztouch to work on an older Android OS, like they used to? Thanks Title Comments Hi I see that there have been a few changes with Buzztouch, and apps are now defaulting to a newer version of the Android OS.

But they have added code to accomodate the new Android API we're moving to. You'll have the option to continue to develop for Froyo+, or you can jump into the new Android code. Either way. I suspect however, that some 'new' plugins may not always carry this functionality.

I created a simple app yesterday and it doesn't install on an older version of Android, but a device I have with a newer version of the OS it is fine. I didn't do anything different to what I normally do, not new plugins or anything like that. If I change to an older version of the OS in Eclipse, I just get errors. So I'm not sure what I need to do to fix it. Thanks Comments Hi Thanks for your replies, but I'm still not sure what I need to do to get an app to work on an older Android OS.
