I just 'unpublished' my app

You do not have to unpublished app. Just go to your application and click "apk" from left menu. Upload new apk file there, and move it to production.

But it is giving me error. package name already exist.

If you will follow above steps, you will not encounter this message.

Note: your new apk's package name must match previous apk's package name. And also you have to sign apk before publishing. I am assume you know all necessary steps.

See this video for help

  • yes, Name is same and i have used the the same signature and have updated the version and code manifest.xml as android:versionCode="2" android:versionName="2.1">, but same problem – Amul Bhatia Mar 11 '16 at 00:53
  • you don't have to unpublished app. If you ave done that, republish your app and then just go to apk screen and upload new file –  Mar 11 '16 at 00:56
