Android app shows as not compatible with any device

Question

I am going out of my mind... I tried changing the uses-feature camera to false, remove it, remove all permissions... It keeps saying that is compatible with 0 devices... Sdks are min 16 target 21.... What am I missing?

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

<uses-feature

    android:required="true" />

<application

It always did or is it since a recent update? If so, what changed in the AndroidManifest? — shkschneider, Apr 24 '15 at 16:16
It always did... I published the app yesterday and when I could not find it in the play store I checked and it said Devices Supported 0... I tried following a bunch of solutions changing stuff around, I even created a whole new project and moved all the code, rebuilt dependencies and repackaged the apk just in case there was any conflict... Nothing every time I upload a new version to see if anything changes it keeps saying 0 in the preview... — Tony Morello, Apr 24 '15 at 16:20
Oh btw... I am using apache.commons.io and it shows commons-io-2.4.jar as Native platform in the developer console... — Tony Morello, Apr 24 '15 at 16:22
I don't see the uses-sdk tag in your manifest. Are you using android studio? Post your build.gradle — greywolf82, Apr 24 '15 at 16:23
Run 'aapt dump badging' from a command line... what does it show? — Sofi Software LLC, Apr 24 '15 at 17:43
The problems seems to be in the dependency org.apache.commons.io:2.4... When I remove the dependency the app is available to 6000+ devices.... Except that without that it doesn't work. Am I importing it wrong? I did it from Project Structure > Dependencies... And the app works on my devices.. — Tony Morello, Apr 24 '15 at 18:36

OK... So I finally found the solution... Thanks to this question Google Play "Native platforms" showing commons-io-2.4.jar

When I realized that it was dependent on apache.commons.io I looked for a solution... and I actually fixed it following the instructions of @Pang replacing 'org.apache.directory.studio:org.apache.commons.io:2.4' with 'commons-io:commons-io:2.4' compiled... and boom! compatible with 6000 devices and change...

Thanks to everyone!
