Key problem with the Android SDK

#1 Post by asatiir » Mon Sep 05, 2016 2:53 pm

Hi,

I'm trying to build an android version of my game and the google play store isn't allowing me to upload because it's a different key. Is there any way to manually change the key?

Code: Select all

You uploaded an APK that is signed with a different certificate to your previous APKs. You must use the same certificate. Your existing APKs are signed with the certificate(s) with fingerprint(s):

No, you'd have to restore the backup you made of the keystore and use that.

You just copy the android.keystore file you backed up into the rapt directory.
