Question by sasimsimity · Jul 29, 2021 at 12:14 PM · build android build build and run

Android Build only works on 'Build & Run' BUT NOT on normal Build (APK+OBB dragged to phone)

Hi guys,

i created a Android App and everything is working fine so far in the editor.

When i now hit 'Build and run' with my Smartphone wired to the PC, the App gets installed and starts normally.

BUT when i hit 'Build' and drag the created APK + OBB to my phone (folders are correct), the App gets installed but doesn't start. Permissions get asked and then just a black screen....

Shortly: 'Build & run' works, 'Build' doesn't

What i already tried:
- Decrease Minimum API Level
- Delete Android manifest to create new One
- Add Statements to AndroidManifest to not save Data/Cache
- Change 'Write Permission' in Player Settings to 'External (SDCard)'
- Change 'Install Location' in Player Settings to 'Prefer External'

Thanks for your help guys! and let me know if you have further questions.

FIXED / SOLVED: My mistake was the na$$anonymous$$g of the OBB-File and the Folder in which it will be placed. I Checked the usual na$$anonymous$$g of these files and folders, adjusted them and fixed it that way.

Hope this helps anyone someday
