Android Manifest Question

I’m looking to start creating games with Corona, but needed to know if we have access to modify the Android Manifest.xml file, I am looking to target specific devices and add a widget to the manifest file.

If any knows if this is possible please let me know thx [import]uid: 113248 topic_id: 34273 reply_id: 334273[/import]

Android isn’t my strong suit, but I would believe our official answer is no, Corona doesn’t give you direct access to the mainfest beyond what can be added in the build.settings file (setting permissions and such) See: http://developer.coronalabs.com/content/configuring-projects#Build_Configuration:_build.settings

That said, based on forum posts, the .apk file is just a zip file that can be unzipped and then you can work with the manifest file. The process is fragile and error prone if I understand the previous threads correctly. Just be aware that once you do that you’re kind of on your own support wise.
