I'm having the following error:

Version 102001019 is not served to any device configuration: all devices all devices that might receive version 102001019 would receive version 103001019.

The problem appeared after I decided to separate APKs for devices with different screen sizes. I have also already multiple APK configuration, with 4 APKs regarding to the texture compression.

So I've set important setting to those APKs in the following way and it doesn't work: - versionCode:103001019 screenSize: xlarge,large,normal - versionCode:102001019 screenSize: large,normal

The numbers 2 and 3 should be the differentiating increasing part of the version code to let Google choose the right version for me.

The docs say:

If you have one APK that's for API level 4 (and above) and small - large screens, and another APK for API level 8 (and above) and large - xlarge screens, then the version codes must increase in correlation with the API levels. In this case, the API level filter is used to distinguish each APK, but so is the screen size. Because the screen sizes overlap (both APKs support large screens), the version codes must still be in order. This ensures that a large screen device that receives a system update to API level 8 will receive an update for the second APK.

But as far as I don't need to filter on the API version, and I have overlapping in screen sizes, my variant should be Ok. Right?

Any advice would be very much appreciated!

P.S. I have very slow internet connection and 300+MB single APK+OBB size, so it is a pain to check all possible combinations manually.

I also received that problem when I uploaded the APK at the first time but I noticed that API level 18-17 when viewing APK details. Therefore, I added this code to AndroidManifest.xml to specify the maximum API level 

 <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="18"
        android:targetSdkVersion="23"
        android:maxSdkVersion="23" />

After doing this, the problem is solved :)

What the Play Store does is always pick the highest version number for each device. So given different screen sizes:

  • xlarge 103001019 is only available, so pick 103001019
  • large 103001019 > 102001029 so pick 103001019
  • normal 103001019 > 102001029 so pick 103001019

As you can see, your 102001019 is not selected for any devices as it only supports a strict subset of devices compared 103001019.

Make sure your multiple APKs are designed to support a unique portion of the devices you wish to support.

  • Thanks for your answer! Unfortunately when I set the screen sizes without overlapping on different version, I receive an error message saying: version **102001019** can not be served to some devices that a **103001017** (previous version) was fine. And then a list of features of the APK without any specific direction on the matter of the problem. I checked all the other filters and can't find any problems. Is there any way to diagnose the matter of a problem (some utility)? – Alex Dovgodko Oct 21 '15 at 14:09
  • Like it says, users already have `103001019` on their xlarge, large, and normal devices. If you're replacing any one of those densities, then your new version number needs to be larger than the old one. – ianhanniballake Oct 21 '15 at 20:29
  • Thanks for your reply. The docs are appeared to be a bit unclear for me, as I thought I've already increased the version number, by changing from 017 to 019. – Alex Dovgodko Oct 23 '15 at 08:47
  • Thank you. I've finally figured that out. The version codes that worked for me are: xlarge 103101019 (this 31 appeared to be very important) normal, large 103001019 – Alex Dovgodko Oct 23 '15 at 09:01
