Android Studio remove appcompact-v7 library - android-studio

Hi in my project Iam using
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:22.2.0'
for support library I don't want to use appcompat-v7 and mediarouter but they are getting generated under /exploded-aar/com.android.support.
My project was originally made for Ant build system and after I imported it in Android Studio it's been built for Gradle and it was working till I updated SDK (by mistake) and now I can't build project because of conflicts.
I tried to remove it from app.iml
<orderEntry type="library" exported="" name="appcompat-v7-22.2.0" level="project" />
But after I clean and rebuild project it's back again

How do I build an old android studio project

I'm trying to to build this project which uses gradle version 2.3.3. What changes do I need to make in order to get it running

Build Android support library v4 from source in Android Studio

All the source code is included when downloading the support libraries via SDK manager in Android Studio. Now I need to fix a bug in the support v4 code and add it as a *.jar in my application. But I don't understand how I open and build the source code in Android Studio. Do I import it as a new project? Do I open it as an existing project? What directory is the directory to be imported/opened? Can I just rebuild support-v4 code into a jar?
Thanks!

Missing generated folders in Android Studio

I'm using Android Annotations in my project and I followed the instructions in this blog post http://www.jayway.com/2014/02/21/androidannotations-setup-in-android-studio/
Everything worked fine.
Today I updated Android Studio to latest version (build of 5th june). This requires an update of gradle build tools from 19.0.3 to 19.1.0. And i configured this in my build.gradle.
Annotaion processing still works. The generated files are located in build/source/apt. But this folder isn't visible any more in project explorer. And starting the build complains about the configuration.
But the project seems to run correctly.
This behavior is very annoying. Do I have to change anything in Android Studio? Has anyone a solution or is this just a bug in Android Studio?
The author of android-apt has already updated his plugin to support Gradle's new version, just change this line in your build.gradle
classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.2+'
To
classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.3'
The Android Studio Team changed the behavior of the IDE "for better IDE integration". Therefore the output directory of the apt-plugin v 1.2 will not be recognized as generated sources folder any more.
the plugin author knows about it and will provide a fix

How to import a android project into android studio?

I want to study the source code of android-smspopup .But when I download the source code and import this into android studio, the android studio pop up a dialog with a title"Import Gradle Project" and a blank to fill named Gradle home. Does any one know why this happens? And what to fill in Gradle home?
The source code doesn't include the Gradle wrapper files, which it should; the Gradle wrapper is responsible for automatically downloading the correct version of Gradle so you don't have to go through this trouble. I would recommend that you copy the Gradle wrapper over from another project into this source tree and use it. In another project that you've created with the New Project wizard, copy these files to the root directory of the project:
gradlew
gradlew.bat
gradle (directory)
When you open up the project in Android Studio it's likely to complain about the version of the Android Gradle plugin and offer to fix it for you; let it do that. If you're running the latest version of Android Studio (0.4.6 as of this writing), it's fairly smart about getting the versions of Gradle and the plug-in right, but in older versions it could get a little confused and have to ask you multiple times.
NOTE: instead of copying the wrapper files over, you can instead install a compatible version of Gradle and put the installation directory in when it asks for Gradle home. That will work, but be aware that Android Studio is very finicky about what version of Gradle it's compatible with; usually it requires a specific version that isn't forward-compatible, so for example, if it wants 1.10, 1.11 won't work. As you upgrade Android Studio you'll have to upgrade Gradle as well and it will be a bit of a drag; if you use the wrapper it's easier to make that change.
By the time Android Studio hits 1.0, it will sort out the version issues with Gradle, and it won't be so picky about version numbers, but in the short term, it's a limitation.

Migrate project to Gradle

I've got a project that used to be in Eclipse. I've since moved it from there into Android Studio, though it's not using the Gradle build system yet.
I've setup my gradle files so that I can do gradlew build from the command-line and it will generate an APK for me.
My question now is how do I get Android studio to build using the gradle files that I've got setup instead of the using the "old" way?
For what it's worth, I'm on Windows 7.
Not sure how you are compiling the project with Android Studio without actually using Gradle because AFAIK Android Studio always uses Gradle under the hoods to build sources.
Anyway, if you have your Gradle config file ready you only have to import it to a new project in Android Studio (File > Import Project... and then select the build.gradle or settings.gradle)
