I need to use a native Android library that uses SDK 19, so I need to create a new Flutter project that supports SDK 19 and Android KitKat. But I don't know which Flutter version I should change to for best support for SDK 19 and Android KitKat. I have checked the Flutter release documentation but I can't for the life of me find the appropriate Flutter version to use.
In case you wonder why I have to use such an old SDK version, is that I am using a Zebra SDK for one of their scanner devices and that's the version they currently have available and they recommend creating a project specifically for SDK 19 and KitKat.
Thanks!
Hello I made a game i unity 2017.4.20
so if I have sdk completely ( all api ), unity 2017.4.20 support all android versions for example: android 9 or 8.1 ?
and can I build My game for android 9 with unity 2017.4.20?
Checkout AndroidSdkVersions there you can see which Android SDK versions are supported by the according Unity version.
For Unity 2017.4 the maximum level is
AndroidApiLevel27 Android 8.1, "Oreo", API level 27.
AndroidApiLevel28 Android 9.0, "Pie", API level 28.
was added in Unity 2018.3
Some general stuff like 64 bit and App bundle support was backported into Unity 2017.4 LTS but I guess that didn't change the maximum supported API level.
Which minimum android version is supported by flutter?
Do some plugins have any effect on which version is not supported?
I tried to run my flutter app on an android emulator, but with the version android 16 it doesn't work and the app crashes. Do I have to change the compile version in some config files or why doesn't it work?
Flutter support 16. But to run app on Android emulator, use over 19.

Mobile operating systems: Android Jelly Bean, v16, 4.1.x or newer, and
iOS 8 or newer.
Mobile hardware: iOS devices (iPhone 4S or newer) and ARM Android
devices.
Note Flutter currently does not support building for x86 Android
(issue #9253) directly, however apps built for ARMv7 or ARM64 run fine
(via ARM emulation) on many x86 Android devices.
We support developing Flutter apps with Android and iOS devices, as
well as with Android emulators and the iOS simulator.
We test on a variety of low-end to high-end phones but we don’t yet
have an official device compatibility guarantee.
We believe Flutter works well on tablets. We do not currently
implement all of the tablet-specific adaptations recommended by
Material Design, though we are planning further investment in this
area
The answer to this question also, partly, needs to take into consideration what parts of Android you want to take advantage of in your application. The question of what min version Flutter supports has been answered here a couple of times so I won't answer that, but the Android support libraries will also need specific min versions.
If you plan to use plugins of any kind then you will probably hit multiple issues if your min version is too low. Do you need Firebase? Do you need specific camera functions?
Google also just announced required bumps for min versions with regards to Google Play that you should review.
My advice is to follow documentation, analytics and best practices to determine what you "true" min version should be.
The Flutter documentation has this answer to Android and iOS. Now it says that support: Android Jelly Bean, v16, 4.1.x or newer, and iOS 8 or newer. However, this information can change according to the new Flutter version. By this reason, it is better that you review the next link:
https://flutter.dev/docs/resources/faq#what-devices-and-os-versions-does-flutter-run-on
Furthermore, it would be best if you analyzed the plugins because they could need higher versions of Android and iOS.
This answer can be useful :
Devices and OS versions on which Flutter runs
Mobile operating systems: Android Jelly Bean, v16, 4.1.x or newer, and iOS 8 or newer.
Mobile hardware: iOS devices (iPhone 4S or newer) and ARM Android devices.

Does Ionic dashboard generates Windows 10 Package ? There is only option to iOS and Android at dashboard.ionicjs.com.
At dashboard i can build IOS and Android Debug and Release version, but there is no option to build a Windows Mobile package.
I need to emulate Android device (Samsung Tab 2) with version 4.0.3, but after choosing it in Android Virtual Device Manager and running it I get info in settings that it is a 4.0.4 version.
I need to run my web app written in html5 to reproduce some bugs.
Any idea about it?
The problem is that the emulator Android versions only correspond with specific versions from each API level. 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 are both in API level 15, so the emulator is only made available for Android 4.0.4. There is no Android 4.0.3 emulator; you'd have to find the system image for that or build it yourself.
