I'm trying to build a python app for Android that uses grpc. I'm using Buildozer 0.32 with the new toolchain on Ubuntu 16.04.2. The build succeeds and it produces an APK but when I try to launch it on an Android tablet I'm getting the following output from logcat. My requirements statement includes kivy, grpcio, hostpython2, enum

I/python  (29857): Traceback (most recent call last):
I/python  (29857):   File "/media/newDrive/gaitan/PythonProjects/hwclient/.buildozer/android/app/main.py", line 34, in <module>

Hi, this is not related to buildozer itself, but python-for-android at least. I'm moving the issue.

@inclement why was this issue closed? I am currently facing a very similar issue when using Firestore.

@NeonSky Because it was old and had no followup.

The issue is that grpc needs a python-for-android recipe to build correctly. Right now it's been built for your desktop, not your phone, that's why the architecture is wrong.

We should be able to log a better message when this happens, feel free to open an issue about this if there isn't one already.

@NeonSky can u solve the problem? because i got this error too

[callumpurcell1]

Also had the same problem, any solution?

[kulothunganug]

I am also facing this error when using google-cloud-firestore module

Is making a recipe for this would fix this issue?
P.S. I tried but its a bit confusing

[ALooRD8]

I have the same issue any solution
