Can You Install SVE 1.15.11 on Android? Current Compatibility Check

SVE 1.15.11 on Android: current status

Verdict as of July 17, 2026: Android 1.6 mod loading is active again, but the available official project records do not provide an end-to-end guarantee that SVE 1.15.11, Content Patcher and Farm Type Manager work together on every Android device. Treat it as a device-specific test, not a universally supported installation.

The desktop game reviewed for this site is Stardew Valley 1.6.15.24356. That number is not interchangeable with the Android build 1.6.15.3 named by the current Android launcher release.

SMAPI LauncherVersion 1.1.7, published June 28, 2026; release note says it fixes a crash on game version 1.6.15.3.
Launcher limitsThe project README says 64-bit devices only and a Play Store copy of the game; modified or pirated APKs are unsupported.
SMAPI AndroidThe newest GitHub tag is 4.3.2.1 Beta, published January 5, 2026. Its release note moves downloads/support to the project Discord and says GitHub issues are no longer supported.
Last GitHub stable SMAPI Android4.1.10.3, published January 2, 2025; its notes mention a Content Patcher conversion fix and a Farm Type Manager QuickSave safeguard.
SVE 1.15.11Requires its three folders, SMAPI 4.1.7+, Content Patcher and Farm Type Manager 1.19+. Its manifests contain no Android-specific support declaration.

Those version numbers clear SVE’s declared minimums on paper. They do not prove the SVE code component and both frameworks complete a real Android launch without skipped mods or runtime errors.

Use the launcher’s actual Android paths

The current SMAPI Launcher wiki gives these paths for its package:

  • Mods: Android/data/abc.smapi.gameloader/files/Mods
  • Log: Android/data/abc.smapi.gameloader/files/ErrorLogs/SMAPI-latest.txt
  • Saves: Android/data/abc.smapi.gameloader/files/Saves

Do not reuse paths from the retired ZaneYork installer, older com.zane packages or pre-1.6 guides. Android scoped storage may require the system document picker, USB access or a file manager with explicit access to Android/data.

Device-specific SVE log gate

This checker never converts missing evidence into a compatibility promise.

No device-specific decision yet.

Installation and test sequence

  1. Back up the complete Android save folder.
  2. Install SMAPI Launcher 1.1.7 from its GitHub release on a supported 64-bit device with the Play Store game.
  3. Install the chosen SMAPI Android ZIP through the launcher, following the project wiki for that exact release.
  4. Download SVE 1.15.11, Content Patcher and a Farm Type Manager release meeting the 1.19 minimum from their official pages.
  5. Place [CP] Stardew Valley Expanded, [FTM] Stardew Valley Expanded and StardewValleyExpanded in the launcher’s Mods path. Do not merge them over old versions.
  6. Launch to the title screen and inspect SMAPI-latest.txt. Stop if any SVE component or dependency is skipped.
  7. Open only a copied save first. Check maps, NPCs, events and an overnight save before deciding whether the setup is usable.

Do not bypass these failures

  • Do not set SVE or a framework to AssumeCompatible to hide a real Android error.
  • Do not install the retired 2023 ZaneYork package as though it were the current Android 1.6 launcher.
  • Do not mix desktop build numbers, Android build numbers and SMAPI versions in one unlabeled “latest” claim.
  • When asking for help, include the device architecture and the versions of the game, launcher, SMAPI Android, SVE, Content Patcher and Farm Type Manager.

Version scope: SVE 1.15.11. Android compatibility depends on the Stardew Valley, SMAPI Android, Content Patcher, and SVE versions used together; check each project's current compatibility notes before installing.
