If it’s anything about the build being corrupted chances are you’ve used caps when you shouldn’t, eg loading “myImage.png” rather than “myimage.png” or the like.
I seem to be having the same problem as you. All I am using is the demo ‘Hello World’ script and it does build OK for Android on a PC - no errors. Place .apk file on phone etc and install and I recieve the message “This archive is corrupted”.
I have tried it on a HTC Wildfire A A510e and HTC Galaxy II.
I have tried several different build because of the Arm 6/7 problems - the current one I am trying is build 450.
If you managed to solve your problem maybe you could help me. I’m sure that it is a simple problem to solve. Could anyone email me a ‘hello world’ source and .apk file to test how to install.

The HTC Wildfire A A510e is an ARMv6 device, so it will not work the the latest build of Corona SDK.
If I recall correctly the latest build that supports ARMv6 is build 319.
As for the HTC Galaxy II, I have no idea what that is…

I am having trouble when Googling for “HTC Galaxy 2” and “HTC Galaxy II” so am unsure of specs, however after reading ingemar’s post about the HTC Wildfire you’re using I realize you likely need an older build.
The link below will let you build for ARMv6 devices however please be aware that we offer ZERO support on it - if you wish to use it you may but please keep that in mind;
I found my android phone on there (samsung admire) It says under display ‘portrait mode’ does that mean i have to have ‘portrait’ as the default in my build.settings file? [import]uid: 75779 topic_id: 20536 reply_id: 83930[/import]
I’m not really sure what they mean by ‘portrait mode’ other than that the dimensions are given in portrait mode. First I thought that maybe there was no orientation sensor in those devices and thus had a fixed orientation, however I saw some others that specify ‘landscape mode’ and those can display in both portrait and landscape, so again I’m not sure what that means.
A quick note though. As far as I know the Samsung Admire (SCH-R720) is an ARMv6 device. This means that you won’t be able to use the latest Corona builds for it as Peach mentioned above. [import]uid: 70847 topic_id: 20536 reply_id: 83931[/import]

thanks i can stop pulling my hair out. figured since it was relatively new phone it would automatically work. but i was wrong! I will look into build 319 but i honestly have never done anything with the builds. I have used whatever build they have given me.
too bad Ansca upgraded so quickly I was excited to show off my first game ever!
Is their a list of ARMv7 devices?
I take it people will use the the build 319 so they can test their games out on the device before launching on the android market without having to purchase a new phone?
so no corona games will be available on ARMv6 devices from now on?
Every device which is based on Cortex-A8 is ARM v7 which includes Qualcomm Snapdragon, Samsung Hummingbird and Texas OMAP3. And every device based on Cortex-A9 is also ARM v7. These includes nVidia Tegra 2, Texas OMAP4, Samsung Exynos 4210.
So these are the devices we want to get our hands on. [import]uid: 75779 topic_id: 20536 reply_id: 83938[/import]
Hello! -) I have a phone with a processor MTK6516 based on ARM-9 (Model STAR A-5000). Android-2.2 is installed. So, the game builded with CoronaSDK it does not work on this phone. And even the games from the Android Market (builded with a Corona) too, do not work on this pnone.
What is the reason? Can ARM-9 is not supported by reason or another? I ask because I just wanted to buy CoronSDK, but there is a nuisance. I would like to find a solution. Help me, please. [import]uid: 93238 topic_id: 20536 reply_id: 85792[/import]
The ARM9 Family is based on the ARMv4 architecture, which is not compatible with Corona SDK. You’ll need a device that has a processor based on the ARMv7 architecture (For example: ARM Cortex-A, ARM Cortex-M3, ARM Cortex-M4, ARM Cortex-R etc.)

Well, the short answer is that any device with less than ARMv7 doesn’t have the capabilities required and is just too weak. [import]uid: 70847 topic_id: 20536 reply_id: 85822[/import]
