Unable to configure Android device in Creator
-
Hi all -
Just got a new laptop, and am getting Qt set up on it. I've gotten my Android settings to where I can build an Android APK, but my Android device (a real one, not a simulator) isn't property configured:
Specifically, the CPU architecture is missing. Since this is generated automatically, I figure that I probably made a mistake somewhere in the Android settings:
Does anyone have an idea what I might have done wrong here? Thanks... -

Maybe try it again(7 times press: so weird). I do not have a tablet nearby and can not see my settings.Enable USB debugging on your Android phone
Open the Settings app.
Select System.
Scroll to the bottom and select About phone.
Scroll to the bottom and tap Build number 7 times.
Return to the previous screen to find Developer options near the bottom.
Scroll down and enable USB debugging.@JoeCFD I didn't find the build number section - these various Android devices are dissimilar to the point of seeming unique - but I did find the fix:
- In the Android SDK Manager, I selected "ARM 64 v8a System Image."
- I deleted my existing entry for the tablet in the "Devices" tab of Preferences
- exited and restarted Creator
- returned to Preferences and my device was entered with the correct information.
Thanks for looking...I'll keep trying to do that 7 tap thing.

@JoeCFD I'm not sure what that means, but this is the same Android unit that I was using with my old system.
