• Graphics - General: 'task.rasterData.vertexBuffer == NULL' errors when using a Particle System (1226357)

• OpenGL: Crash on BufferManagerGLES::AcquireBuffer when in Play Mode (1230566)

• Package Manager: Immutable packages altered by the API Updater are reverted to their original state when packages are resolved, which can lead to slower import performance in that context.

These settings have to be changed or a signed Android NDK (r16b) will be needed to build Android. More information here: https://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads/older_releases.
