How to solve “Your APK's version code needs to be higher than 2.” in Google Play's Developer Console?

Question

I\'m getting this error when uploading my Phonegap app to the Google Play Developer Console:

Your APK\'s version code needs to be higher than 2.

Answer 1

Had the same problem and solved it by changing the following values in the build.gradle file in the Module: app

defaultConfig {
        applicationId //app package goes here
        minSdkVersion 10
        targetSdkVersion 21
        **versionCode 2
        versionName "1.1"**
        signingConfig //name of keystore goes here
    }

This is the way Android Studio keeps track of the versioning for each app.

Alternatively, for the noobs, you can access these settings by clicking on the settings of the app, and navigating to the Flavors tab. There you can amend certain settings such as the versionCode and the versionName.

Hope this helps :)
