Localization String Tables will not load on Android 5.1.1 device, but works on a Samsung S20

Unity Engine

Hello everyone,

when deploying my app built with Unity 2021 LTS, Localization 1.3.2, Addressables 1.21.1, my strings table resolving works fine on every iOS and Windows device, even it works fine under WebGL5, and also installing it as a .apk on a Samsung S20. But it fails on another test device running Android 5.1.1. The while app is running fine, but all my strings are empty, because

string rc= LocalizationSettings.StringDatabase.GetLocalizedString(id);

returns null.

LocalizationSettings.InitializeSynchronously = false;
yield return LocalizationSettings.InitializationOperation;

is done in IEnumerator Start().

Because it’s running on all typ of devices, and of course the Editor, I’m not sure what’s going wrong. Is it possible the Localization support is not offered for such an old Android version, even the whole app is running? Or did I miss something?

I can build in Window → Addressables → Groups → Default Build Script, and also did it before building the .apk.

Any help or idea would be highly appreciated.

Thanks and regards

Markus

I’m not aware of any Android limitations but if there are then it will be due to Addressables. Do you get any error messages in the log file? Can you try updating to localization 1.4.2? You may need to manually edit the manifest.json file in the Packages folder if its not visible in the package manager.

Wow, thank you for your prompt reply. That’s more than impressive.

Do you mean Android Logcat for creating a logfile? I didn’t used it so far, but will try if it is what you think about.

I will also try to switch to localization 1.4.2 and will let you know if this changes anything.

Thanks again

Markus

Attached is the complete logcat file, I guess the important lines start here. If the same archive would not work on a more-up-to-date Android device, I would guess I missed something during build.

Thanks for your time!

The error Error Unity RuntimeData is null. Please ensure you have built the correct Player Content. is what you get when it fails to find/load the addressables data.
Could you please file a bug report? The addressables team will need to investigate this.
