I have the exact same error, but running on Windows 8 with the latest Android NDK and SDK. I am using Qt 5.1 RC1 and Qt Creator 2.7.2.

Compile Output:

I have tried looking for an answer to this, but nothing seems to work. Did not see any Qt Bugs either.

Ok, somehow I fixed it, don't actually know how but I think restarting the computer a few times as well as the Qt Creator helped.

I noticed that I did not have any choice of which SDK to use in the drop down in the Projects->Run->Package configurations->Manifest dialog:

http://doc-snapshot.qt-project.org/qtcreator-2.8/creator-deploying-android.html#specifying-package-data

After a few restarts I noticed that Qt Creator had discovered the SDK's I had installed (the selected item was blank, so I had to press it and select a SDK from the drop down list, something I could not do earlier).

When I did that I got a step further, but still had a problem. The ant tool would not allow me to build an android application with a Package name that was ".Test". My project was called Test, so the Package Name was automatically called ".Test".

I tried to change that also in the Manifest Dialog: http://doc-snapshot.qt-project.org/qtcreator-2.8/creator-deploying-android.html#specifying-package-data

But I could not change that value in Qt Creator in that dialog. This has to be a bug!!

Anyway, I just opened the AndroidManifest.xml file in Qt Creator (it is in the Other files -> android folder) and changed the package name to "com.mycompany.test" and it worked!!

I got it deployed to my device (Galaxy S3).

I hope that anyone else having this problem might get some help from my frustration. Enjoy!

just delete Android SDK Build-tools revision 19 and install prev version 18.1.1. Now it's working!

I can believe that to fix this issue, I just need to re-name my package as "com.whatnever.myAPP", thanks Genonn
