cant change default signing key (or remove debug from Android)

My new Android key still won't disable debug. It appears it's not using it.

There is a "default" radio button by the iOS key, but the Android one doesn't have a radio button at all.

I added a duplicate key and it still doesn't give me an option. I tried enabling debug again in settings, letting it rebuild, then disabling and rebuilding and still no success.

How can I get PGB to use my signing key? Is there an error with the key?

Thanks

@Caleb,
Click on the lock associate with your Android App. After you click on the lock, it will ask you for a password. You should know the password. Enter the passwords and click [submit key].

After that the lock will look slightly different. The lock will look "opened", (see attached image). Sorry the images on that interface are not good, but it is what it is.

If you have already done this, and it appears you have the read this blog:

Make sure to read the whole thing. Step #3 is not mention anywhere. And I have looked.

Best of Luck.

Oh.. forgot the "default" signing key is only for iOS. It is not needed for Android.

Thanks Jesse. I am blind :(

I didn't see the select box by the Android app build lol. It had "no key selected". I've picked the key and it works now.

Did you read the blog?
The select box in on the same page as your App.
