I just uploaded my first app to market and it shows a whopping 1198 devices as supported. Devices, such as:

But when I try to install it on my phone, it does not seem to work:

This is of course my developer phone, so it makes no sense. Android 4.2.2, build JDQ39.

Can you please take a look and point out something obvious I missed? Pretty please?

My manifest is:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

android:versionCode="5"
android:versionName="0.2.3" >

    android:targetSdkVersion="17" />

<supports-screens
android:anyDensity="true"

android:normalScreens="true"
android:resizeable="true"
android:smallScreens="true"
android:xlargeScreens="true" />

<compatible-screens>

<!-- small size screens -->
 <screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="ldpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="mdpi" />

  • Strange, it says that its not compatible with my Nexus 7, which is 4.2.2 also. Do you need to have `` and `supports-screens` in your manifest? I published a location based app for an Android course I took and my manifest did not contain those values. – HeatfanJohn May 05 '13 at 00:39

    Check out question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11691775/why-my-app-is-not-showing-up-on-tablets-in-google-play which explains why the app doesn't show up for my Nexus 7. Perhaps this is the same issue with your developer phone, perhaps your phone's DPI isn't any of the ones you have listed. Again, do you really need to specify all this? – HeatfanJohn May 05 '13 at 00:44
  • Strange, your app can be installed on my Galaxy Nexus. Is there any particular reason why you want to specify supported DPI for each screen size? If your app in fact works for all DPI in all screen size, then those specification can be removed. As it stands now, you are specifying that your app does NOT support tvdpi (Nexus 7) and xxhdpi (HTC Butterfly, HTC ONE, Galaxy S4, and practically all future Android flagship phones). – Kai May 05 '13 at 02:40

Alright folks, I found the reason for this.

I uninstalled the developer signed version of my app from my phone, went to bed and woke up to my app being now compatible with my phone. I think the developer signature was the problem.

It works now! Thanks!
