    Hi there,

    I couldn't find any info on the issue, so I'm starting a new thread.

    I'm trying to run a simple application (basically a rotating cube) on an AVD using Android KitKat (4.4) coming from the 10.30.2013 Android SDK. I tried it on a Windows and Mac machines running Unity 4.3/4.2 respectively and I always get this error:

    Code (csharp):

    So my question is, does Unity support the Android Simulators using API 19? Does it even support Android 4.4 (I have not tested it with a device since I don't have one yet), or am I missing something here?

    In my case, it is similar. On Android 3.x - 4.3. my application seems to work fine, but on Android 4.4 it crashes. I just wanted to confirm that probably Unity 4.2.x doesnt work on Android 4.4.
