@tyczj but in developer forum it says that "Note: This attribute currently does not accept xxhdpi as a valid value, but you can instead specify 480 as the value, which is the approximate threshold for xhdpi screens." — android, Sep 25 '15 at 06:48
because the app only want to support in mobile phone devices — android, Sep 25 '15 at 07:21

android:xlargeScreens doesn't mean that it supports xhpdi. It means it supports extra large screen form-factors, as per API docs:

Indicates whether the application supports extra large screen form-factors. An xlarge screen is defined as a screen that is significantly larger than a "large" screen, such as a tablet (or something larger) and may require special care on the application's part to make good use of it, though it may rely on resizing by the system to fill the screen

See: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/supports-screens-element.html#xlarge

Specific configurations for xxxhdpi has to be done via /res sub directories, e.g. res/drawable-xxxhdpi/some_drawable.png. Not via Manifest.

See: http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/screens_support.html

thank you for yor answer. But actually i asked about how to show my app in xxxhdpi resolution in google paly. — android, Sep 29 '15 at 06:28

This is what worked for us in the manifest for all new devices:

<compatible-screens>
<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="ldpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="mdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="hdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="xhdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="420" />
<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="480" />
<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="560" />
<screen android:screenSize="small" android:screenDensity="640" />
<screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="ldpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="mdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="hdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="xhdpi" />
<screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="420" />
<screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="480" />
<screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="560" />
<screen android:screenSize="normal" android:screenDensity="640" />
