Android Marketplace Updating
With Build, how can you update the version number of the app so that it can be submitted as a update to the marketplace? I have tried changing the config.xml, but that version number doesn't seem to be reflected anywhere in the app.

You can specify the version (public viewable) as an attribute of the top-level widget element, in your config.xml file.
To manage updates, Android uses a property called versionCode (as distinct from version name, the public-facing one). PhoneGap Build automatically increments the version code of your application on each build. If you need to override this, you can add a "versionCode" attribute to your widget element, like so:
<widget id="com.myapp.xox" version="1.0.0" versionCode="15">
...
</widget>-

Still getting this message when trying to upload the new APK.
The new apk's versionCode(1) already exists.
Here is a copy of my config.xml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<widget xmlns = "http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets"
xmlns:gap = "http://phonegap.com/ns/1.0"
id = "com.appsmade4u.cpsashland"
version = "2.1"
versionCode = "21">

What's the id of your app on PhoneGap Build? I can take a look at the apk and try to figure out what's happening.
-
-
The app id is 18625.
I tried it again last night, and it came up with a different version code of '151' (same as the build number) and worked.
Thanks for your response. Love your guys service.
I will be trying to add the app to the apple store and see how that goes.
Thanks again.

Hello.
Same issue for me : the versionCode field in my config.xml file seems to not be taken in account by the build ( but the 'version' field "0.0.1" is ok) :
I wrote versionCode="1" in the config file, built it on 'phonegap build' and post the apk on the Android Market, and there the versionCode is 4.
I tried it several time, and the versionCode changes randomly.
Could tell me how to manage this pb ?
Regards.

Extract of my config.xml file :
...
id = "com.xxxx.yyyy"
version = "0.0.1"
versionCode = "1"
... -

It looks like there was a bug in the versionCode - the versionCode specified in the config was being trumped by the build count (the default). This meant it was always the build count.
I've fixed that now - if you specify a versionCode in your config.xml, it will be set correctly. -

I’m
thankful
PERFECT !
I tried version="0.0.1" versionCode="1" and a subsequent build with version="0.0.2" versionCode="2", and both versionCode were weel configurated by the build. The second app updated the first one thanks to the versoinCode.
Many thanks for this very quik fix.
Best Regards. -

I keep getting this error when I try to upload an update to my app in the Android market.
new apk's versionCode (1) in AndroidManifest.xml must be higher than the old apk's versionCod
I have tried changing the version in the config file, but it does not seem to change it when you use Build.
Sample config:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
I also tried adding a version number in the Build edit page. No luck

Brief Buddy, I can't see your config.xml contents. Please use the code tag to enter code in Get Satisfaction - hit the "some HTML allowed" link for more details.

Here is the code, I've tried tweaking around with the header numbers...
xmlns:gap = "http://phonegap.com/ns/1.0"
id = "com.craigbarber.briefbuddy"
version = "1.2"
versionCode = "200"> -

What's the id of your application - when you navigate to the app's page, what's the number in the URL bar?

hello I am having the same problem my app code won't update my app id is 47210 -

Hi Zubair,
You have the following tag in your config.xml file:
<feature id="phonegap" required="true" version="1.0.0" />
This feature lacks a name attribute, which is required for a valid W3C config.xml document - see here:
http://www.w3.org/TR/widgets/#the-fea...
Because of this, we could not parse your config.xml file correctly and extract the versionCode. -
-
Ok, I think I solved my problem thanks to the above comment as a pointer.
I added required="false" to my features in the config xml.
Not having this seems to have been tripping it up. -

This is bug that a number of people have brought up - please follow the progress here:
