With the addition of fragments into JellyBean how do you go about designing for all platforms? Do you make two different versions of the same app? One with fragments one without? I find fragments extremely useful but I know I and a lot of other people still run android 2.3. What is your opinion on this matter?

Fragments were added in android 3.0. There is no need to make two different versions of the same app because google has released a support library that allows you to use fragments on android 1.6+ along with all the following:
• Fragment
• FragmentManager
• FragmentTransaction
• ListFragment
• DialogFragment
• LoaderManager
• Loader
• AsyncTaskLoader
• CursorLoader

Here is a link to it: http://developer.and...rt-library.html

I clearly missed something but I have all the support libraries installed and in my build path but I still cant run my app on my 2.3 device but it works fine on the 4.1 emulator

you must not be using the support libraries in your imports then.You should be using import android.support.v4.app.* for your imports for fragments where * is fragment, fragment manager, etc...
This link will show you how to use the support library: http://mobile.tutspl...with-fragments/

Thanks you just blew my mind with that lol. Worked perfect after a little trial and error. Thanks for all your help.
