Android app, tablet only on google play. How?

I have just made an android application using PhoneGap which was designed for use with only tablets. However, after uploading the app to google play, it says it is only available for phones and cannot be installed on tablets :/

How can I make it so that the application is only available for tablets?

This is my AndroidManifest file:

Change in manifest like this :

<supports-screens
        android:largeScreens="true"
        android:normalScreens="false"
        android:requiresSmallestWidthDp="600"
        android:smallScreens="false"
        android:xlargeScreens="true" />

<uses-sdk
    android:minSdkVersion="11"
    android:targetSdkVersion="14" />

This will prevent any small/mobile device to install your application. Only device with large screen will have the privilege to install your application. Play store will automatically select the devices cording to these settings.
