Is there a way to build an apk using a 1024 certificate?

[Paul Darky]

I have an app that was uploaded to Google Play with a 1024 certificate. Updating it with a 2048 certificate would require a complete new app from scratch and I don´t want to loose all the users, impressions, clicks and income.

In the past I was able to update it with the original 1024 certificate using Animate 2017 but not anymore. I don´t know if it is because of the new AIR SDKs or the new Admob ANE from Distriqt.

In this thread there seems to be a solution but I have not been able to make it work.

Does anyone have a workaround to this issue?

I find the solution :

The problem isn't Animate but Java who force you to compile to 2048

you need to Java 1.6 

and compile in command line :

java -jar "****\SDKAIR\AIR26.0\lib\ADT.jar" -package -target apk-captive-runtime -arch armv7 -storetype PKCS12 -keystore "*****.p12" -storepass "****" "*****.apk" "****.xml" -C "****.swf"

change *** by your stuff ^^

Does anyone have a workaround to this issue?

you have to use an older version of animate (cc 2015.2 is the latest, i believe).

So there´s no way to do it on a mac with Catalina. Right?
