sandeep2244 opened a new issue #498: Cordova Build minSdkVersion change to 19
URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/issues/498
 
 
   Hello,
   
   
   I have android version 7.1.1 in my project
   
   after adding  android i build project using "cordova Build" command
   
   > And i got following error
   
   See http://g.co/androidstudio/manifest-merger for more information about the manifest merger.
   
   :app:processDebugManifest FAILED
   
           uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 16 cannot be smaller than version 19 declared in library [:CordovaLib] C:\Users\trikonuser\TestAgain\WebCall_AS_tsim\webCall\platforms\android\CordovaLib\build\ intermediates\manifests\full\debug\AndroidManifest.xml as the library might be using APIs not available in 16
   
           Suggestion: use a compatible library with a minSdk of at most 16,
   
                   or increase this project's minSdk version to at least 19,
   
                   or use tools:overrideLibrary="org.apache.cordova" to force usage (may lead to runtime failures)
   
   Now magic is in my files
   www/config.xml and xml/config.xml
    
   ```
   <preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="19" />
   <preference name="android-targetSdkVersion" value="27"/>
   ```
   and main/AndroidManifest.xml  file I have put
   `
   <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="19" android:targetSdkVersion="27" />`
   
   While My gradle file also contain
   
   > project.ext {
   > 
   >   defaultBuildToolsVersion="27.0.1" //String
   >   defaultMinSdkVersion=19 //Integer - Minimum requirement is Android 4.4
   >   defaultTargetSdkVersion=27 //Integer - We ALWAYS target the latest by default
   >   defaultCompileSdkVersion=27 //Integer - We ALWAYS compile with the latest by default
   > }
   > 
   
   
   **### BUT NOW I RUN COMMAND :- CORDOVA BUILD it changes all config i mad automatically to previous as follows**
   www/config.xml and xml/config.xml
   ```
   <preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="16" />
   <preference name="android-targetSdkVersion" value="27"/>
   ```
   and main/AndroidManifest.xml  file I have put
   `
   <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="16" android:targetSdkVersion="27" />`
   
   How Cordova Build command run rechange agin to 16 if they already want to 19
   
   I used below phonegap version
   `> <preference name="phonegap-version" value="cli-6.3.0" />`
