I have downloaded the facebook sdk version 3.21.1 and I have android studio version 1.0.2.
Whenever I try to import the 'facebook' folder in the sdk folder(through the import module method), it dosent show up in the project tree on the left hand pane. Also I am getting this error : Error:(1, 0) Gradle DSL method not found: 'pply()'
Possible causes:The project 'The Social App' may be using a version of Gradle that does not contain the method.
Gradle settingsThe build file may be missing a Gradle plugin.
Apply Gradle plugin
Please help.
For me I was having similar problems.
I am using Android Studio 1.1 and Facebook SDK 4.0.0
First, be sure to follow that steps 3 to 6 in the facebook developers page in your existing project.
Click here for the getting started instructions.
Be very sure you follow it all.
After importing it I didn't see it in my project structure be sure to click down on the left corner and make sure it is on Project, if not use the drop down and select Project.
Also do ctrl+alt+shiftt+s to bring up the project structure wizard. Then go to app dependencies and click plus in the right corner to add the :facebook module dependency.
Then make sure that in your root project build.gradle that it's using gradle 1.1.1 since some problems with importing has been fixed here.
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.1.1'
// NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
// in the individual module build.gradle files
}
Then referencing this answer was the finishing touch:
Can not import facebook-sdk 4.0.1
Then a pop should appear to upgrade buildToolsVersions to 21.1.1.
This is what it took for me to get this all working. Hope it works for you too!

I have a simple multi-module Gradle project with Java code. When I import it in IntelliJ Community, it asks me to select the build tool from among Maven and Gradle, and will properly recognize the Gradle modules and show me a Gradle tool window.
When I do the same in Android Studio, I don't get the build tool question, and it won't recognize the projects or show me the Gradle tool window.
How do I get this to work in Android Studio?
Simply Try This,
Go to File -> Project Structure -> Sdk Location
This You will get a option menu like this (the given image)
there you can update your gradle settings.
The answer, as far as I've been able to find out, is: Don't even try. Use IntelliJ instead. Installing it is most certainly quicker than trying to get Android Studio to do this.
How do you open the project in Intellij? Do you open the folder? Or do you open the build.gradle?
Just like a maven project (where you should open the pom.xml, not the folder) you should open the project using the build.gradle, not the folder.
Intellij will then do what you expect and import your gradle project
The least required to make it recognize the project is to add AGP, the Android Gradle Plugin:
buildscript {
repositories {
google()
}
dependencies {
classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.0.2"
}
}
Then one can define Android modules with:
apply plugin: "com.android.application"
apply plugin: "com.android.library"
apply plugin: "com.android.dynamic-feature"
Then it will recognize the android {} configuration block (without this Gradle DSL configuration block it would not know what or how to build for Android - as it isn't a sane Android project). Just see the documentation linked, this has little to do with the default Java tooling.
Gradle 7.2 is currently required to build. Even if one cannot mix the plugins per module, one can have different plugins per module - or use different IDE, depending on the tooling of the module. How compatible this really is, is being determined by the dependencies used in the Java module. The fact that one can only use either tooling per single module dictates the layout to be applied.
I suspect that you will have to manually move some code from the successful build files in intellij to the android build files.
I'm using Android Studio, and I'm trying to add the slf4j library using
Build/Edit Libraries and Dependencies.
I clicked on the +, selected Library Dependency, and picked slf4j from the list. Studio added the library to my build.gradle file like this:
dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:24.1.1'
compile 'org.slf4j:slf4j-android:1.7.7'
...
But when I try to run sync, I get this error:
Error:(75, 10) Failed to resolve: org.slf4j:slf4j-android:1.7.7
Is there something else I need to do to my project to be able to use this library??
Turns out what was causing this issue for me (and likely for you, given the build file above) was the Scala plugin. There was a bug with the Scala plugin preventing Android Studio from importing Gradle projects. The fix for this has already been pushed live, so to get Android Studio working again you can either disable the Scala plugin or update it.
Open Settings/Preferences
Open the Plugins section on the left
Find the Scala plugin
Right click on the plugin and click Reload List of Plugins
Right click on the plugin again and click Update Plugin
This allowed me to do a Gradle sync and build from Android Studio again, I hope it helps for you!
It looks like this is a bug with Android Studio. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon.
In the meantime, you can debug your application without launching it from Android Studio by attaching the debugger to a running process of the application. You can do this two ways.
Via the menus: Run -> Attach Debugger to Android Process
Pressing the button that is two to the right of the play/build button. It looks like a grey phone/rectangle with a little green bug in the bottom right
After you do this, a dialog will show up listing available applications to debug. Select your application and press OK. Your breakpoints should now work.
If you need to debug something that happens on app startup, you can tell Android to wait for a debugger when launching certain applications with the following steps:
On the phone open the Android Settings
Open the Developer Options
Make sure Wait for debugger is checked
Press Select debug app and choose your application
Then when you start your application, it'll wait for you to attach a debugger via one of the two methods mentioned above.
Hope this helps!
In order to get the maven repository working with my Android Studio project (which I didn't know is what I was trying to do), I needed to add the following to build.gradle:
allprojects {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
}
Apparently, that allows the software to work out the compile commands.
I have tried to clone the following repository on GitHub using Android Studio, https://github.com/AlexKang/favr.git, but I have the error:
Before this I selected build project using Gradle and then accepted anything it wanted to install. I am having similar problems with, https://github.com/mb16/RemindEm.git, where I get that
Each time I selected "create project from existing sources" and then accepted everything it suggested.
What am I doing wrong?
The projects have eclipse .classpath files in the folder. I'm guessing you should be able to import the project into eclipse.
As an alternative to using Eclipse you might want to try using a feature of IntelliJ IDEA (Android Studio's parent project). File > New > Project from Existing Sources... Then select the .project file for the import
I'd like to use a module imported into Android studio in my Android project. My development is taking place in the app module and I have imported sliding-menu as a module and set the dependency in the IDE but gradle cannot find out the dependency and builds fail because of this. How can I tell gradle that I have imported the module?
If you add your dependency as a module, it doesn't mean it is included in your project. You should add it as a library next. Please read "approach 2" part of this link https://stackoverflow.com/a/35369267/5475941. It is exactly what you are doing. In this post I explained how to import your JAR files in Android studio and I explained all possible ways step by step with screenshots. I hope it helps.
I am teaching android app programming at a highschool. I found Eclipse to fragile so we are now trying out Android Studio. But a couple of students get that Android Studio with R. in red font, showing that it is not recognized.
This happened for example when the student copied the contents of my files.
It sometimes happens when you open a proyect from other sources. Just Synchronize it or press Ctrl-Alt-Y.
R.java file issues : 1) check the naming convention of images in drawable folder with size.
2) check the style of your application
In your case it may be missing style .. So upadate the style in value folder as per application .
The most common reason for this error is bad XML coding. For example using android:src="#drawable#drawable/picture" in ImageView will give you R error as it will not let R.Java file to build. Its hard to trace such errors as XML file will not show any error.
Also take a look if your resources are of good quality!
Hope it helps! Cheers
Build -> Clean Project
Tools -> Android -> Sync Project with Gradle Files
and all OK!
Try adding the following:
android.enableAapt2=false
to gradle.properties and Refresh:
You can also do the following: Clean Project and Sync Project with Gradle Files.
try importing your project :
To migrate existing Android projects, simply import them using Android Studio:
In Android Studio, close any projects currently open. You should see the Welcome to Android Studio window.
Click Import Non-Android Studio project.
Locate the project you exported from Eclipse, expand it, select the build.gradle file and click OK.
In the following dialog, leave Use gradle wrapper selected and click OK. (You do not need to specify the Gradle home.)
Android Studio properly updates the project structure and creates the appropriate Gradle build file.
First if the existing project was developed in eclipse you need to import the project and then check what are the error. If your students are coping codes from your project then after coping the codes they need to clean and sync the project. If still your problem not solved try this in android studio :-
File/invalidate caches/restart.
Hope it helps you :)
Especially, for regeneration of R.Java file.
If you have tried all these options:
Clean Project
Rebuild Project
Invalidate Caches / Restart
deleted .gradle folder
deleted .idea folder
deleted app/build/generated folder
checked your xml files
checked your drawables and strings
and still face problem then check your classpath dependency in your Project Gradle Scripts and if it's, this:
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.3.2'
then downgrade it to, this:
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.1'
clean and rebuild it will sync your project.
I had the same issue, and the lint gave me a hand...
If you're using lint, it can help too.
In gradle.build(Module:app) add the lintOptions sub-element in android element as shown below, then lint will fix it for you!!.
android {
lintOptions {
abortOnError false
}
}
I hope it helps!!
