I eventually decided to just stick with only using SDK version 4 since so many people don't have devices with newer versions. The preferred install location I might change in the future, but for now since I've got the binary small enough I'm not going to mess with it. I don't want to risk accidentally releasing a build that calls functions that don't exist (which is what I found I was doing during testing.) -Phil Yeah ..

Just be careful not to call functions that didn't exist in older system versions. There's an Android Developer Blog post about this.
