[android-developers] Re: Full version invisible in the market on Droid

The problem existed between keyboard and chair.

I didn't realize that you have to press "Publish" again after
uploading an upgrade.
It seems I'm just too stupid to use the "Developer Console" web
interface *blush*.

Justin, Droid uses Android 2.0. The 1.5 phones ignore unknown tags
(like the supports-screens tag) so this usage should be ok.
