There is also modification to the AndroidManifest.xml required. We had a thread of this on QtMob slack channel, but here is the highlight I did find (copy from slack): This tag have been added to the AndroidManifest.xml for 5.14.0: <meta-data android:value="@string/unsupported_android_version" android:name="android.app.unsupported_android_version"/> I will try to add it on my application too. This seem to be gone: <meta-data android:name="android.app.bundled_in_lib_resource_id" android:resource="@array/bundled_in_lib"/> <meta-data android:name="android.app.bundled_in_assets_resource_id" android:resource="@array/bundled_in_assets"/> <meta-data android:name="android.app.load_local_libs" android:value="-- %%INSERT_LOCAL_LIBS%% --"/> this have been replaced by this: <meta-data android:name="android.app.load_local_libs_resource_id" android:resource="@array/load_local_libs"/> The value is now default (was added, I was using full): <meta-data android:name="android.app.extract_android_style" android:value="default"/> The activity tag configChanges also added: mcc|mnc|density The application tag also have this more: android:extractNativeLibs="true" This is Niels Mayer solution to select a different AndroidManifest for 5.14.0 or above: ## For Android and Qt>=5.14 AndroidManifest.xml is incompatible with old version, thus need ## Separate "android-newqt/AndroidManifest.xml" for Qt>=5.14 ## See https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-80444 for details. equals(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 5):greaterThan(QT_MINOR_VERSION,13) { ##Android with Qt>=5.14 message("Using 'android-newqt/' as ANDROID_PACKAGE_SOURCE_DIR...")
