Install_failed_older_sdk With Minsdkversion Lower Than Device Api Version

Post a Comment
On a brand new install of the latest AndroidStudio running the New Project template with min SDK selection of 15 (ICS) trying to run on a Nexus 5 running API 19, I get the INSTALL_

Solution 1:

Check the doc at http://developer.android.com/preview/setup-sdk.html.

You have to use 

minSdkVersion 'L'

and you have to run the app in device with Android-L or an emulator with Android-L. The build system when compileSdkVersion is 'android-L' or targetSdkVersion is 'L' forces the minSdk to 'L' to prevent apps published with the API in preview.
