Problem in Parsing the Package while installing Android apps

Parsing Error while installing the Android application in Android phones?


Parsing error comes due to the Android-SDK version given in the Android manifest file.

To overcome this error please follow the steps given below.




Step 1:- Click on the android project in the Package Explorer of the Eclipse.
Step 2:- Now click on the AndroidManifest.xml. After this a project manifest will open.
Step 3:- Now click on the AndroidManifest.xml file at the bottom.
This xml file contains the android-sdk version as shown


  



Step 4:- Change this android-sdk version from 14 to 4 as shown
  <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="4" />

Thats all...the parsing error is removed!!!Check it.

    1. It depends upon the Android OS version you are using in your device. Please check with lower minSdkVersion like 2 instead of 4.
