title: React-native to support Android 4.0.3 - API 15
body: <p>Is there a way to let react-native supports android API level 15, Ice Cream Sandwich?</p>
  
  <p>I've tried changing the <code>minSdkVersion</code> and <code>targetSdkVersion</code> to <code>15</code> as follows from <code>AndroidManifest.xml</code> file but that didn't work.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;uses-sdk
      android:minSdkVersion="15"
      android:targetSdkVersion="15" /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The app will be installed on old devices running 4.0.3 Currently I am getting this error when running it on linux:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_OLDER_SDK]
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Note that I am using Android sdk 6 to compile the app which is required by React-native (RN). RN does say that the minimum support version for Android is API 16+ because of the Choreography API but I wonder if somebody have any workaround for this!</p>
  
  <pre><code>&gt; react-native --version
  react-native-cli: 2.0.1
  react-native: 0.38.1
  </code></pre>
