Android App Submission Need Help!

Hi Guys hope all have had a great Christmas and may you all have a prosperous New Year. Anyway, getting back to my problem. I've never really understood the Android submission process, especially now. The problem I have is the whole 'Debuggable' thing. I've just tried to upload my APK file but it failed giving me the following error: You uploaded a debuggable APK. For security reasons you need to disable debugging before it can be published in Google Play. Not sure, what I do here, as not familiar with Android. I have tried setting the Debuggable in the Manifest file to FALSE, but then I get a red error. Completely lost to what I need to do. Does anyone have any advice.

I remove the line completely, never had an issue with it.

Thanks, I was thinking that, but was to scared to take it out incase sh*t happens. Thanks, now have resolved my issue. I have another quick question; do you know if I have to have an Android device with 3G active to test Push Notification or can I use the Wi-Fi setup? Its just I keep get some error/warning when I try to test. Should put this in a new post really.

Ive tested that over both without issue. What message(s) are you getting? Of significance here is the initial setup via Google dev console, changes to core code within eclipse and BT control panel setup too. Doesnt run straight out the gate at the moment

Apparently I need a GCM API Key (whatever that is). Hate Android, everything is so complicated, whatever happen to SIMPLE? Not sure how I obtain the key and whether I can test the Push before publishing. LOST!

Heres link(s) to two docs on my dropbox, one walks through the API key and the other are the changes needed to make it all work! You can test prior to release once its all working - no issues with that at all! https://www.dropbox.com/s/jtb51ndbmibh44i/Push%20Notifications%20-%20Google%20and%20BT%20Panel.docx?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/mrz0vthij3i2ml6/Push%20notification%20error%20resolved.docx?dl=0
