Hi @francislagares

The mentioned issue could be connected with the targetSdkVersion You can try placing the target SDK version to 31.

In your Cordova project, you can change this by going to the config.xml file. After the line <platform name="android">, you can add: <preference name="android-targetSdkVersion" value="31" />

Let me know if this helped.

Hi @mparadina

Well I just did what you suggested, now I get another one:

Task :app:mergeDebugResources FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong: Execution failed for task ':app:mergeDebugResources'.

Could not resolve all files for configuration ':app:debugRuntimeClasspath'. Could not resolve androidx.core:core:1.6.+. Required by: project :app > Failed to list versions for androidx.core:core. > Unable to load Maven meta-data from https://jcenter.bintray.com/androidx/core/core/maven-metadata.xml. > Could not get resource 'https://jcenter.bintray.com/androidx/core/core/maven-metadata.xml'. > Could not GET 'https://jcenter.bintray.com/androidx/core/core/maven-metadata.xml'. > Read timed out

I've even tried to remove android platform and re-added again with :

cordova platform rm android
cordova platform add android

This is my config.xml:

@francislagares install android with the following command:

cordova platform add android@10
