Tarmo,
 
I appreciate the info.
 
The Android version for my Proscan is 4.0.3 - so I don't imagine the version is a problem here.

Hi, Art

 

I made some experiments with the Csound-android-6 first time today. One thing I noticed that in the Android manifest file of the CsoundAndroid sources the minimal android version required was set to is API-11 (Android 3.0). I have an old smart phone with android 2.3 and The official Csound6.apk pacakge it did not work for me their either. I changed the required minimum in the project sources to 10 and then it worked.

 

If you have eclipse and android development kit installed, it is easy to fix:

download http://sourceforge.net/projects/csound/files/csound6/Csound6.02/Csound-android-6.02.0.zip/download

 

and change in every project file AndroidManifest.xml

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="11" />

 

to

 

<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="11" />

 

 

(or I can send my apk for you to try)

 

BUT

 

I think the minimum requirement is set for a reason, there might be things that don't work with lower android. Mike, Victor, Steven, can you tell?

 

thanks,

tarmo

Recently, however, I purchased a 4.3" Proscan PT4311 tablet (about the size of a smartphone). Csound5 works fine on it; but no version of Csound6 does. Csound6 installs fine, but when the icon is touched, only the very top panel appears momentarily and the screen immediately reverts to the home screen. (This is true even of the current Csound 6.02 app, which is only 3.3MB.)
