Description

Buildozer builds apk successfully, but now cannot install it. Even past working apps. I have installed even the simplest label display app, and it stops during installation. Back then such apps are working for android and now it doesn't. Any person able to install their apps on Android 11 recently?

#    List as sections
#
#    You can define all the "list" as [section:key].
#    Each line will be considered as a option to the list.
#    Let's take [app] / source.exclude_patterns.
#    Instead of doing:
#
#[app]
#source.exclude_patterns = license,data/audio/*.wav,data/images/original/*
#
#    This can be translated into:
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns]
#license
#data/audio/*.wav
#data/images/original/*
#

#    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
#    Profiles
#
#    You can extend section / key with a profile
#    For example, you want to deploy a demo version of your application without
#    HD content. You could first change the title to add "(demo)" in the name
#    and extend the excluded directories to remove the HD content.
#
#[app@demo]
#title = My Application (demo)
#
#[app:source.exclude_patterns@demo]
#images/hd/*
#
#    Then, invoke the command line with the "demo" profile:
#
#buildozer --profile demo android debug

Even with 2 archs it works.

Ok now I think the issue is probably my phone since I can install things in Android Studio but not on the phone. Maybe my phone is blocking the app? I have Android 11, had set the minapi to 28 and max to 30 in my phone and Android 9 in Android Studio where it worked. If only I can downgrade the phone so that it installs. Or the package installer is broken or something. I am not sure. I might test on other phones anyways

Note: The app was literally was just showing a box saying "Hello World!"

Run the install over ADB and you should at least get a reason why it failed, my presumption is there's a package already installed with same id that's signed differently.

👋 @sprites20, Sorry to hear you are having difficulties with Kivy's Buildozer; Kivy unites a number of different technologies, so building apps can be temperamental. We try to use GitHub issues only to track work for developers to do to fix bugs and add new features to Buildozer. This issue has been closed, because it doesn't describe a bug or new feature request for Buildozer. There is a mailing list and a Discord channel to support Kivy users debugging their own systems, which should be able to help. They are linked in the ReadMe. Of course, if it turns out you have stumbled over a bug in Buildozer, we do want to hear about it here. The support channels should be able to help you craft an appropriate bug report.

Yeah this works thanks!
