I know this question has beed asked a few times, but it seems like any other solution does not work for me.

I'm supposed to update an app we have on the Google Play Store. The version name and code are maintained in the gradle.build with this piece of code:

def versionMajor = 1
def versionMinor = 1
def versionPatch = 0
def versionBuild = 1

android {
    defaultConfig {
        versionCode versionMajor * 10000 + versionMinor * 1000 + versionPatch * 100 + versionBuild
        versionName "${versionMajor}.${versionMinor}.${versionPatch}"
    }
}

The current version from the store is 1.0.7(.5) which translates to 10705. I'm supposed to update to 1.1.0(.1), which translates to 11001.

But the Google Play keeps telling me that I already have an APK with this version number. I checked every version of the app, back to 1.0.0 and I don't have any version with that number (obviously), since it is automatically calculated.

Am I doing something wrong?

I have another app, with a different package name, made for another client, that have this version code. But version codes are independant, right?

EDIT: Couldn't find a solution. I negociated with my boss to update the version code to 1.1.0(.2) instead. And it worked. Still don't know why the GPlay thought the 1.1.0(.1) already exist, since it doesn't.

Did an app with that version get published to your alpha or beta channels? – Bill Mote Aug 09 '17 at 12:48
No. The alpha was never used. And Beta channels used 0.0.x version, so between 1 and 100. – Okaa-Pi Aug 09 '17 at 12:52
Have you uploaded any version at PlayStore ? – ViramP Aug 09 '17 at 13:02
Check if there are any apk in your library that has not yet been publicated – GuilhermeFGL Aug 09 '17 at 13:02

Even if you have submitted your app with the version code and got rejected for some reasons, you have to increase the version code the next time. – Bob Aug 09 '17 at 13:32
@ViramP I already have a 10705 version code uploaded, but no trace of a 11001. – Okaa-Pi Aug 10 '17 at 12:36
@GuilhermeFGL Already did. There isn't. – Okaa-Pi Aug 10 '17 at 12:38
@RahulGupta Doesn't help, at all. – Okaa-Pi Aug 10 '17 at 12:38
@Bob Nothing got rejected. – Okaa-Pi Aug 10 '17 at 12:38
