Degrading android version to build the APK

To build an apk for android device, you need to first degrade your android version to 6.2.3.

Here is the command to remove the existing Android version.

Steps: You have to go to your Hybrid folder in your root directory.

command: cordova platform remove android

Example: D:\SVN Repo\07-06-2018\MOBILEAPP\hybrid>cordova platform remove android

Here is the command to add the Android version.

command: cordova platform add android@6.2.3

Example: D:\SVN Repo\07-06-2018\MOBILEAPP\hybrid>cordova platform add android@6.2.3

Once you have added the Android version then build your apk file to run on the mobile device.

Grunt command: 

Build project: build --platform=android
Run project: serve --platform=android --device=Nexus_6P_API_27

Ojet command to generate the debug- apk file

ojet build android

Note : Use ojet command to build the apk. This is more stable.

Your apk path:

 D:/SVN Repo/07-06-2018/MOBILEAPP/hybrid/platforms/android/build/outputs/apk/android-debug.apk
