Only way to get this to work is to use FroYo API AVD

For anyone with this issue, this is how I set up old Froyo AVD to test this scenario:

My Manifest min version is already 8, which is Froyo

< uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" android:targetSdkVersion="21" />

You can see SDK_API_VERSION information here. http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html

In the SDK manager Installed the needed version:

Created a new AVD for the new version.
