My phone had issue with laz4android. But because laz4android 1.7 just
came out, so I want to give it a try. I use LazToApk. It succeed to
download SDK and NDK but failed to download laz4android. Any
suggestion what should I do?


OS: WinXP 32-bit
LazToApk version: 0.9.0.36 (downloaded from SourceForge)

I tried laztoapk yesterday and found the same problem.

The program should indicate what it is trying to do, and perhaps
implement a "manual" mode.

I used tcpdump to spy the program, and discovered that lastoapk was
trying to download

http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/laz4android/laz4android1.6.0-
FPC3.0.0.7z

Download the link above and extract it in
laztoapk_root\downloads\laz4android

Then restart laztoapk and tell it to NOT download laz4android. The
program will let you specify paths to the various programs it needs.

Hope this helps, regards.

Thank you linuxfan for the solution for this issue. I manually
installed laz4android 1.7 to combine it with laztoapk, it works after
fixed some minor issues.

Unfortunately, the old problem still persists. The result app will
show error and quit if it runs on Android 5 devices. This problem
already reported a year ago, but still no fix now.

Have you tried the generated app on Android 5 devices? Is it work?

Hi,

I have uploaded a new version of laztoapk. 
https://sourceforge.net/projects/laztoapk/files/

And all is open-source: here is the innosetup install script  https://
sourceforge.net/p/laztoapk/svn/HEAD/tree/trunk/install/laztoapk.iss

Regards,
