V Viktor_Eltour95 New Member May 6, 2026 #1 I have made an Android application with b4a version 2.00, which is starting to give problems when installing on the new devices with latest versions of Android (14+). The application uses an additional library "table". It also uses socked to connect with external Windows server app and need some permissions to write and read temporary data files on Android device . Everything else in the code uses the standard ones in the B4A core. Please give me a recommendation on how I can solve the problem. Did I need to update my B4A version and add someting to old code?

aeric Expert Licensed User Longtime User May 7, 2026 #4 [SOLVED] App not installed as app isn't compatible with your phone. User phone auto updated to Android 14 and cannot install the app. Current targetSDK = 18. If I change the targetSDK, I afraid some features will no longer working.
