Re: [android-developers] Re: How to upload apk with new version, when previous key store is lost?

I did not ask key restoration.

I can also pay for somebody to fix the situation manually.

I did not say that is fault of google. I say it's absurd to lose customers in this way.

I did not even have a chance to speak with someone in the support.

This is a good thing. If Google allowed such a key recovery system, anybody could get your key easily and then make malicious apps that would over write your on the users system. It is not Google's fault that you were unable to maintain a backup of your key.

Thanks

I am in the same situation.

There seems to be no solution to the problem.

For me, if in the next few days I can not find a solution, I will not use more "Google Play".

It 'simply inconceivable. There should be a procedure for the recovery of the situation.

Hi,

We have been developing Android apps since a while now but unfortunately we lost our key store which was used to sign a previously uploaded apk, now we want to upload a new version of existing live app on Google play to do so we need to sign new apk with different key store but Google Play will not accept apk signed with different key store.

Is there any way that we could upload new version of app with different key store as we do not want to add separate new app asap for those user which have already installed previous version and they deserve to have update existing app rather than purchasing brand new app again?  

Also if not possible for above statement then:

Is there any way to get complete information of key store from previously signed apk so that we could possibly get key store and use it to upload new version of app? 

Android Support: Please answer on this situation as there could be some way to upload apk with new version and signed with new key store.

Thank You
