[mono-android] Bluebird Pidion BIP-6000

[Steve Sharrock]

Thanks Jon.

I didn't have TargetFrameworkVersion set. So I can now load and debug the
app targeting version 2.1.

The first error I encounter in the failing app is trying to get the
Android.Provider.Settings.Secure.AndroidId (which returns null on this
device). I can fake my way past this error, but then I can't seem to
complete an initial WebService call using a Wi-Fi connection.

Although I said in the original post we are running 2.1, we are actually
running 2.2 (Level 8). I'm not sure if going back to 2.1 is causing our
WebService Connection problems, or if it is more incompatibility with this
device. What I found on the web is pretty sparse regarding changes from 2.1
to 2.2. I'll keep looking.

Where did you lower it? :-)

I realize that this is confusing, and thus we need to improve this, but
there are two (yes, two) places version numbers are listed.

There's the TargetFrameworkVersion, and then there's the Mono for Android
Application / Minimum Android version.

Make sure that you're setting the TargetFrameworkVersion when you build your
package. You may need to clean + rebuild your project.

Thanks,
