16 KB support

[yashs-devstree]

I've uploaded my VR app to the Play Store, and it is showing 16 KB memory page size warning. Any plans to update the library to support it?

Library that does not support 16 KB:
base/lib/arm64-v8a/libGfxPluginCardboard.so

it's even mandatory later this year

"Starting November 1st, 2025, all new apps and updates to existing apps submitted to Google Play and targeting Android 15+ devices must support 16 KB page sizes."

Thanks for raising this issue @yashs-devstree we will take note of it and add it to our list of task. We will reach out on this same issue as soon as we have an update for this.

Hi @yashs-devstree , I've taken a look at the issue. Could you provide more details regarding the version of cardboard you are using and the tool version which you used to build the application. I was not able to find any issues related to the 16Kb page size from our own developed apps that uses Cardboard.

I followed these steps. Also to try out your own application to check if the apk is compliant I followed these steps

Hope this helps you out!

Hello @Voldivh
I'm using cardboard-xr-plugin v1.29.0 and Unity version 6000.038f1. Since the AAR files in the cardboard XR plugin are pre-built, I can not manually make them compliant.

I understand, those pre-built binaries are definitely not compliant, we will look for a way to fix that in a future release and get back to you.

I have also hit this issue as was going to update ahead of any deadlines (new API minimum about to hit before 16kb page) so would be good to get new binaries

Same issue, please fix asap as deadline is approaching quickly. latest release: Cardboard-xr-plugin v1.30.0

I also would like to see it fixed sooner than later, but you can get a few more months when clicking " I neeed more time" in Google Dev Console just in case
