## Description
I encountered this bug when compiling the ionic project. I have followed the instructions on the Internet to continuously modify the project.properties under "myproject/platforms/android" and the project.properties under "myproject/platforms/android/Coedovalib".
But this did not take effect. When I cleared android and added android again, the same error still appeared. And, the value I changed was restored.
## Information
Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugManifest'.

I understand that cordova-android 9.0 supports SDK 22 and up, and that the code is not tested against anything lower.
Currently, my issue is with the `android-minSdkVersion` options is that the build results in error
> Manifest merger failed...
Which is thrown by Cordova, not due to any errors from using deprecated Java/Android SDK API
How do we force the build to use a lower minSDK and ignore/bypass the error throw by Cordova?
And I understand that I will need to test and fix issues related to any unsupported SDK APIs.

You can use `android-minSdkVersion` to force a lower minSdk, but the code in cordova-android only supports SDK 22 and up. So if you are trying to target something lower, you'll probably also need to make changes to the Java code.
Namely, the CordovaLib library that powers cordova-android has a minSdk of 22.

This is occurring because you (or a plugin) is setting the project min sdk to something lower than the cordova framework's min sdk, which for 9.x is set to 22.
Do you have the `android-minSdkVersion` preference set in your `config.xml`? If so I'd suggest to increase it to 22 or remove it to allow it to default to 22.
Do note that increasing the min sdk to 22 will limit your app to Android 5.1 or later.

Yeah, Ionic apps used to include `<preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="19" />` in the starters `config.xml`.
It's been removed, but for apps created before that, they should also manually remove that if using cordova-android 9+ as it uses `android-minSdkVersion` 22

@breautek
I understand that cordova-android 9.x min sdk is 22. And the reason is due to effort involved to test vs sdk market share.
But I thought `android-minSdkVersion` is used to override that behaviour.
If I need to force minSdk lower than 22, how would I achieve this?

breautek commented on issue #1070:
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/issues/1070#issuecomment-712128530
The problem is in the android project, we have 2 modules, the `app` module, and the `CordovaLib` module, and it looks like the preferences only changes the min sdk for the `app` module and the `CordovaLib` remains the default min sdk of 22, which is an incompatible app config.
As jcesar pointed out in the dev mailing list, I think this is something that can and should be fixed so I'll reopen this ticket.
To re-iterate from previous comments, this is only to keep the `CordovaLib` and `app` module min sdks in sync so it doesn't cause the gradle error. A PR that patches this is welcome.
This error could still come up via third-party libraries if they define a min sdk value. Lowering the min sdk could also make your app crash during runtime when attempting to use an API that may not exists on older devices.
In the meantime, this untested workaround could suffice:
__config.xml__
```xml
<widget ... xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
<edit-config file="AndroidManifest.xml" target="/manifest" mode="merge">
<manifest xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" />
</edit-config>
<edit-config file="AndroidManifest.xml" target="/manifest/uses-sdk" mode="merge">
<uses-sdk tools:overrideLibrary="<packageThatNeedsToBeOverridden>" />
</edit-config>
</widget>
```
Where `packageThatNeedsToBeOverridden` should be a string of a package name. I don't quite remember exactly that this is for Cordova generally the error output for min sdk mismatches states the library package name. This can be a comma delimited list if there are multiple packages to override.
Lastly, I believe `<edit-config>` targeting `uses-sdk` can fail if your `AndroidManifest.xml` has no `<uses-sdk>` tag to modify. If that's the case of your app, I think you can replace it with `config-file` instead like so:
```xml
<config-file target="AndroidManifest.xml" parent="/manifest">
<uses-sdk tools:overrideLibrary="<packageThatNeedsToBeOverridden>" />
<config-file>
```

For others that with similar needs
I was able to build by adding the following to my project's config.xml
```
<edit-config file="AndroidManifest.xml" mode="merge" target="/manifest">
<manifest xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" />
</edit-config>
<config-file parent="/manifest" target="AndroidManifest.xml">
<uses-sdk tools:overrideLibrary="org.apache.cordova" />
</config-file>
```
As noted by @breautek
```
<edit-config file="AndroidManifest.xml" target="/manifest" mode="merge">
<manifest xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" />
</edit-config>
<edit-config file="AndroidManifest.xml" target="/manifest/uses-sdk" mode="merge">
<uses-sdk tools:overrideLibrary="<packageThatNeedsToBeOverridden>" />
</edit-config>
```
Results in error
> Unable to graft xml at selector "/manifest/uses-sdk" from "[project path]\platforms\android\app\src\main\AndroidManifest.xml" during config install
