Android apk will not run on device message = Error this application has been corrupted

Background: I have successfully built,installed and run Corona apps on my android tablet. On a game that I am working on and added quit a bit of code /assets to etc -

I can build it and install it with no issues. I get a black screen that says ERROR: the application has been corrupted. I never get to the Ansca trial screen.

Any body scene this before ?

I just got that error and found that I had an error in my code (I was referencing an image file that did not exist). I did not see the error in the simulator because this part of the code was only activated when system.getInfo(“platformName”) == “Android” and on the simulator that value is always “Mac OS X” (or something like that).

Android devices are also case sensitive. So if you reference a file like “myImage.png”, make sure the filename is “myImage.png” and not something like “myimage.png”. The simulator doesn’t care but the devices will.
This got me a couple of times.

I was having the same problem,

adding to Jeff’s point, “myimage.PNG” is also different from “myimage.png” [import]uid: 74346 topic_id: 20720 reply_id: 86499[/import]
