Question by Htss_samy · Aug 01, 2019 at 09:03 AM · apkkeystoresign

You uploaded a debuggable APK or Android App Bundle. For security reasons you need to disable debugging before it can be published in Google Play.

When i try to upload apk file (the apk file is working fine for all mobile) using previous version sign key or existing key (both are same here) i am getting " You uploaded a debuggable APK or Android App Bundle. For security reasons you need to disable debugging before it can be published in Google Play. " error. previous version has same key. thanks...

i have no idea, but maybe this error might be because you have ticked the Development Build in the build settings? since it enables debugging flags

I'm getting the exact same error and this is the only post about it.

I've checked everything 6 times already, I have no idea how to solve it. You were able to do it?

I just got this error as well. I have used the exact same procedure and key for my previous builds/updates. Debug mode is NOT ticked. Help anyone?

c++ compiler configuration is set to release? and is set the toggle of development build off too?

Yes, I haven't touched those settings either. The one thing new in this build is the inclusion of the Facebook API, so I'm gonna investigate if that is causing issues.

Just Go to "Assets\Plugins\Android\Android$$anonymous$$anifest.xml" this location, Then open the "Android$$anonymous$$anifest.xml" file in your code editor. Then search for "android:debuggable". If this value is "true", then set the value to "false" and build your application and you are good to go.

If this doesn't work for, then you can try this - Go to project settings > Player > Publishing Settings > $$anonymous$$inify > And change the release To Proguard from None.

I found a solution! That works for me at least. I will just tell you exactly what I did:

  1. Go to your project directory and search "AndroidManifest.xml" In each of the files to the following (not sure if you need to do it in all of them, but I did at least):

  2. Remove the comment at the top, that talks about overwriting something, don't remember

  3. Search for: android:debuggable="true"

  4. Set the value to false

  5. Save all changes

  6. Build and upload your game and you should be good :)

Although the solution by @Torkilws will work, it is not necessary to dive into your android code.

Just remove the tick from the option "Development Build" from file -> build settings and you should be fine.

Have tried this, did not work for me. I tried a lot of different settings tweaks, the one I posted was the only thing that worked for me. This is some time ago now though.

$$anonymous$$ay be it is an old bug, the question popped out to the top because a comment was made to your answer, but I thought it is a recent question.

Yes. Ideally this solution should work, but in reality this is not the case. It may work for APKs, but it is not working when you export project. Mine wasn't a "Development Build", but still in Android Studio I can find the "debuggable" attribute set to true. Set to false manually only.

Go to build settings: 1. select IL2CPP 2. See the C++ Compiler Configuration is set to Release 3. In android manifest.xml check that in tag if android:debuggable="true" then make it android:debuggable="false"

Hi my people. I am new to this, I have created an application that uses ARCORE, I have tried all the populous methods to sign and upload the application to the PlayStore, but it has been impossible for me, this error is one of many that I have received. I have used the tool: pepk.jar, I have tried so many things that I am about to go crazy. I appreciate a step-by-step process. Thank you.
