Recently I downloaded Android Studio 3.0.1 and I want to build an app with minimum SDK 10
The wizard did not allowed me to change the minimum SDK below 14 so I continued building the app then I changed gradle settings from file=>project Structure=>app => properties (tab) I change Build tools version to 25.0.3 because it is the latest version I have supports old api 10:
Starting with Support Library release 26.0.0, the minimum supported API level across most support libraries has increased to Android 4.0 (API level 14)
and from flavours (tab) I changed:
Min SDK Version to API 10.
Target SDK Version to API 25.
from build.gradle I removed:
androidTestImplementation 'com.android.support.test.espresso:espresso-core:3.0.1'
then sync to build the project, the build was successful but when trying to run it on real mobile I got the following error:
Unable to locate adb
