Cheers

Have you modified your AndroidManifest.xml file at all? Can you post it here? Mark

Cheers Fred, i will try that in a bit. Where do i paste the line <supports-screens android:smallScreens=true/> in the manifest? Does it matter?

I think as long as it goes in between <application> and </application>, it doesn't matter where it goes. Mark

Yep! Not seeing anything unusual there. I'd go with Fred's suggestion on the smallScreens line.

Just a note for anyone reading this in the future. The line of code should read <supports-screens android:smallScreens=true/> Had to add quotation marks around 'true'. Was not compiling without it. The site Fred linked to had missed them out.

Yes, unfortunately this site will delete quotes. Did it work? Fred

Not done yet. Had this error when trying to upload new apk >> The new apk's versionCode (1) already exists. Went back to the manifest and changed the version to (2). Then got another error >> The apk must be signed with the same certificates as the previous version. After editing the manifest, i went through the export process in eclipse. Is that where i messed up?

Are you using the same keystore? Why didn't you test prior to uploading?
