Как изменить api apk

I want to change the minimum SDK version in Android Studio from API 12 to API 14. I have tried changing it in the manifest file, i.e.,

<uses-sdk
    android:minSdkVersion="14"
    android:targetSdkVersion="18" />

and rebuilding the project, but I still get the Android Studio IDE throwing up some errors. I presume I have to set the min SDK in ‘project properties’ or something similar so the IDE recognizes the change, but I can’t find where this is done in Android Studio.

In android studio you can easily press:

1. Ctrl + Shift + Alt + S.
2. If you have a newer version of android studio, then press on app first.
   Then, continue with step three as follows.
3. A window will open with a bunch of options
4. Go to Flavors and that’s actually all you need

You can also change the versionCode of your app there.

In build.gradle change minSdkVersion 13 to minSdkVersion 8 Thats all you need to do. I solved my problem by only doing this.

defaultConfig {
    applicationId "com.example.sabrim.sbrtest"
    minSdkVersion 8
    targetSdkVersion 20
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"
}

According to this answer, you just don’t include minsdkversion in the manifest.xml, and the build system will use the values from the build.gradle file and put the information into the final apk.

Because the build system needs this information anyway, this makes sense. You should not need to define this values two times.

You just have to sync the project after changing the build.gradle file, but Android Studio 0.5.2 display a yellow status bar on top of the build.gradle editor window to help you

Also note there at least two build.gradle files: one master and one for the app/module. The one to change is in the app/module, it already includes a property minSdkVersion in a newly generated project.

As well as updating the manifest, update the module’s build.gradle file too (it’s listed in the project pane just below the manifest — if there’s no minSdkVersion key in it, you’re looking at the wrong one, as there’s a couple). A rebuild and things should be fine…

In Android studio open build.gradle and edit the following section:

defaultConfig {
    applicationId "com.demo.myanswer"
    minSdkVersion 14
    targetSdkVersion 23
    versionCode 1
    versionName "1.0"
}

here you can change minSdkVersion from 12 to 14

When you want to change minimum SDK you should take care of minSdkVersion^[About] in module build.garadle

android {
  defaultConfig {
    minSdkVersion 21
  }
}

Changing the minSdkVersion in the manifest is not necessary. If you change it in the gradle build file, as seen below, you accomplish what you need to do.

defaultConfig {
   applicationId "com.demo.myanswer"
   minSdkVersion 14
   targetSdkVersion 23
   versionCode 1
   versionName "1.0"
}

To change the minimum SDK version in Android Studio just…

1). Right click on «app» in the «Project» panel

2). Choose the new «Min SDK Version» on the «Default Config» tab

3). Click on «OK» and the project will now resync with the new Gradle settings.

For me what worked was: (right click)project->android tools->clear lint markers. Although for some reason the Manifest reverted to the old (lower) minimum API level, but after I changed it back to the new (higher) API level there was no red error underline and the project now uses the new minimum API level.

Edit: Sorry, I see you were using Android Studio, not Eclipse. But I guess there is a similar ‘clear lint markers’ in Studio somewhere and it might solve the problem.
