processing 2.0a and Android 2.1 HTC Hero ?

in Android Processing • 1 year ago

I´m trying to run "the basic code" running on the device by processing (v 2.0a5). It works well in the emulator but when I tray to run it on the mobile phone (HTC Hero android 2.1) by the usb i get this error

Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_OLDER_SDK]

Shutting down any existing adb server...

"the basic code"

void setup() {

size(480,800);
smooth();
noStroke();
fill(255);

rectMode(CENTER); //This sets all rectangles to draw from the center point

};

void draw() {

background(#FF9900);
rect(width/2, height/2, 150, 150);
};

I have set the phone to USB debugging on and even allowing app from unknown sources but still getting the error, isn't it possible to use Android 2.1 with processing 2.0 or dose it help if I use and older version of processing ?

Processing 2.0a5 requires Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) or later, so unfortunately it won't run on your device unless you update it to a newer version of Android. This requirement might seem steep (specially since 2.2 is still run by a significant fraction of devices) but OpenGL through the Java SDK was not completely usable until 2.3 (see this and this).
