I downloaded an example of an Android project from this website:
https://draeger-it.blog/android-app-programmierung-bluetooth-low-energy-connection-ble/?cn-reloaded=1
...and adjusted the code as mentioned in the comments. I was very happy to see it working on my Samsung Tab S7.
Afterward, I created my own Android Project and just copied the code from the following three documents:
AndroidManifest.xml
MainActivity.java
activity_main.xml
Unfortunately, it is not working when using a new Project structure. One obvious difference is that every time I open the "original" / working project, the user is asked to grant permission for the device location. Using my own project, it seems like the user is only asked when running the App for the first time.
Any ideas what else needs to be changed in the project, to get that working?
Thank you!
You have one more file that you should check, and that is the build.gradle file. You might not be using the same android API.

I have a simple calculator app. It's a complete application all by itself.
I also have a more advanced calculator app that's based on the first app, but has more features. Its main Activity extends the first app's main Activity. The advanced app references quite a lot of resources and methods from the simpler app.
Getting the advanced app to build under Android Studio has been a nightmare. I've been googling and trying things blindly in the build.gradle files, but not making much progress. At first, the problem was dependent features configured but no package id was set (whatever that means, Google turned up no documentation.)
I got past that by tweaking the build.gradle files, and now I'm getting Manifest merger failed with multiple errors, see logs, but I can't find the relevant logs. It looks like the build failed because Android Studio tried to merge the AndroidManifest.xml files from the simple app and the advanced app, but I just wanted to use the manifest from the advanced app.
This is all very frustrating because I made it all work under Eclipse but now I have to move to Android Studio.
I guess my first question is: How can I tell Android Studio to just use the Android Manifest from the current project and not try to merge from the other project.
In general: can an application project serve as a library for another project, and if so how? Are there any examples?
Third question: where can I find good documentation on build.gradle?
I could attach my current build.gradle files and AndroidManifest.xml files if people need to see them, but I'm really hoping to learn enough that I can help myself.
Confirm the problem first：
Switch the same model in Library / application
Application ID androidmanifest conflict problem
if this is the problem, the official documents can see the channel packaging

And I wrote you a little demo

My problem is, that I can't seem to deploy my app to my phone (galaxy s4) or the emulator anymore, after adding the AndroidManifest.xml to the project.
I have been working on this app for 1 or 2 days, never had a problem testing it on my phone. I wanted to add the App Icon and change the app display name and found out that it had to be done over the AndroidManifest.xml file. So after finally finding where to add it in the QtCreator, I added an Icon and changed the name. When I click deploy, it loads and then the bar turns red, without ANY error messages or nothing. It just goes red full and then goes away. Even the warnings from build are not even showing.
I hope you guys can help me, this is my first question, so if I forgot any information or asked the question wrong, please let me know :)
You need dirqml2sdk debugger libaries (if your OS is windows). You can download it from here.
OK, I have been wanting to try the new ActionBarCompat, however, I am not able to run my programs in the emulator.
I have been trying to implement the following: http://antonioleiva.com/actionbarcompat-how-to-use.
and have been stuck on basically the first part. However, working with the author of that content, I was able to get further as I was not adding the project under sdk\extras\android\support\v7\appcompat folder like stated. However, I still think that might be the reason I cannot do this...
More detail can be found here: http://antonioleiva.com/actionbarcompat-how-to-use/#comment-43
Basically, on my first attempt, I just created an Android project, and changed the source code as indicated. Code would not run on the emulator. So I went back to the original code, and that ran on the emulator.
Checked online, found out I might need to add the \extras\android\support\v7\appcompat folder as a library to the project I am building. So I added that and a new android project was created. There were build errors from the start, but I failed at trying to add it as a library to my project, and deleted it....thinking this was way overboard.
After back and forth chats with author of linked website, I found out I had to do that overboard thing.
So I tried the following link to the T: (I cannot post more than 2 links due to low repuation...I will add this link as a comment below)
However, Eclipse would not allow me to add the appcompat Existing Android Project...but it did allow me to add the appcompat Existing (General) Project. I think this may be some of the problems??
Right now, I cannot run the project at all. Eclipse is showing a red exclamation mark on the project folder, but all the code seems to be fine. So I don't know what to do now...I recreated this project several times over, and this one was the one where I knew what to do...and I am still getting problems
So...
I decided to move to Android Studio...updated the IDE, updated the SDK manager to include the new support library, and other things. Created a new project, added to the build.gradle file as shown in the link provided below in the comment. I ran the ant build, and then built the project...tried to import the right things to allow ActionBarActivity, but I could not get that far.
I can import
"android.support.v7.*"
"android.support.vy.R" // and all folders within
but nothing allows me to add ActionBarActivity, and I don't know why.
FYI, I guess I would prefer a solution to Ecplise, as it seems like I actually got somewhere with it.
The best example to use is from here, and I would follow it closely. I had similiar issues when I first came across this. Problem was I misunderstood what I needed to do

I am trying to run the example application in the networkusage.zip file on the Android Developers website (location: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/network-ops/index.html).
I have not made any changes to the code whatsoever. However, it crashes immediately on startup. I have tried setting a breakpoint in the onCreate method of the main activity, but it never gets there....just crashes right away.
I am just starting with Android, but I been able to complete other training sessions and run other example apps, so I believe my configuration works. I am running Windows 7, with Eclipse Juno and the very latest JDK and Android SDK/ADT (both downloaded about a week ago).
I am using an emulator targeting Android 4.1 (API 16).
The emulator shows a messages that says Unfortunately, NetWork Usage has stopped working.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
In AndroidManifest.xml file, for this project, substitute absolute android:name for NetworkActivity with relative one.
In other words, change this line:
android:name="com.example.networkusage.NetworkActivity"
to look like this:
android:name=".NetworkActivity"
The problem was that NetworkActivity is not in com.example.networkusage (as was in AndroidManifest.xml file), but in com.example.android.networkusage package. Thus, Android couldn't find the class on runtime.
I am trying to implement a custom barcode scanner. If I have Zxing installed the app works fine but If I do not the application will error out and you have to force close. I have added IntentIntegrator.java and IntentResult.java into the SRC folder of my project and changed the package name to point to my package, although Im not sure if that is what I am supposed to do. It still will not work. Am I setting this up correctly? I have found many pages that tell me to use the files but not how to set them up to work.
I would like it to smoothly direct the user to download the zxing app from the market if it is not installed on the client phone.
It's because you are not handling ActivityNotFoundException, or checking first to see if the app is installed. That is up to you. But, if you used the provided integration code, it would do this all for you. See http://code.google.com/p/zxing/wiki/ScanningViaIntent
It's not going to launched your app though, no.
