We are currently overhauling the build process for the APK, which should hopefully resolve these issues.

Thank you, that will be great

Hi @rtibbles, just to know the above errors is it concern kolibri or android python installer ?

Could not find method versionCode() for arguments [2201261156] on DefaultConfig_Decorated{name=main, dimension=null, minSdkVersion=DefaultApiVersion{mApiLevel=21, mCodename='null'}, targetSdkVersion=DefaultApiVersion{mApiLevel=29, mCodename='null'}, renderscriptTargetApi=null, renderscriptSupportModeEnabled=null, renderscriptSupportModeBlasEnabled=null, renderscriptNdkModeEnabled=null, versionCode=null, versionName=null, applicationId=null, testApplicationId=null, testInstrumentationRunner=null, testInstrumentationRunnerArguments={}, testHandleProfiling=null, testFunctionalTest=null, signingConfig=null, resConfig=null, mBuildConfigFields={}, mResValues={}, mProguardFiles=[], mConsumerProguardFiles=[], mManifestPlaceholders={}, mWearAppUnbundled=null} of type com.android.build.gradle.internal.dsl.DefaultConfig.

This is definitely an issue with Android SDK/NDK versioning, unfortunately setting up these things for use with Python for Android is a bit finicky, as this repo gets updated with new build processes, that would probably be the best guide.
