Upgrading from QT 5.13.1 to QT 5.15.2

Hi,
I'm having trouble upgrading from QT 5.13.1 to QT 5.15.2. My android app was working fine, but I can't get it to work now. I don't know if my Kit is not configured correctly. I want to build for armeabi-v7a. I can build successfully. But once the app is deployed on my device (running Android 6), it crashes on startup. In the logcat, i can see :

06-30 22:33:47.040 5410 5410 W ResourceType: Invalid package identifier when getting bag for resource number 0x00000000
06-30 22:33:47.042 5410 5410 E Qt : Can't create main activity
06-30 22:33:47.042 5410 5410 E Qt : android.content.res.Resources$NotFoundException: String array resource ID #0x0
06-30 22:33:47.042 5410 5410 E Qt : at android.content.res.Resources.getStringArray(Resources.java:545)
06-30 22:33:47.042 5410 5410 E Qt : at org.qtproject.qt5.android.bindings.QtLoader.startApp(QtLoader.java:423)

So clearly something is wrong. In the .pro file, I tried to use the QMAKE_ANDROID_APP_BINARY = libClariprod_V3.so, but it seems to have no impact on the application-binary tag in the deployment-settings.json. Also, don't mind the '5.12.3' folder name, it's a typo.

Thanks

Android 6? How old is this phone? Better not to upgrade.

Why would it matter ?

@AlGig Newer versions of Qt may not support the old Android versions and hardware. The Android version in my phone is 14. It may not make a lot of sense to work with Android 6.
