Live App testing - versionCode issue in AndrodManifest.xml

Submitted App with android:versionCode 100. Found some issues in Live testing, fixed the issues and now I cannot submit a newer APK with the same android:versionCode 100 in the manifest. It will only accept the new apk if I incremented it to 101. Is there a way to keep the android.versionCode same and update the APK with a newer APK ? This is still in "Testing" phase and I would hate to have to give up the android:versionCode just to iterate through all the bug fixes before a final release (push to production).

Hello Dipendu, Unfortunately, no. In order to submit new builds into the Distribution Portal you will need to increase the Android:versionCode to submit a new binary whether it's a new Live App Test or Production binary.
