I have a Android apps in google play store. I want to update this apps. I have changed my versioncode and version name. When I upload my apps in google play store it shows a message.

You need to use a different package name because "com.pavelstudio.todolistplus" is already used by one of your other applications.

So what I do now?

You uploaded an APK that is signed with a different certificate to your previous APKs. You must use the same certificate. How i can solve it now. — Md.Masud Parvez, Oct 14 '14 at 11:56

You need to select the app in play store developer portal and select the option submit new apk. I think you are trying to create a new app instead of updating the current application.
