When I open my file there is an error. I already clean, rebuild and invalidate caches It is possible to upgrade or downgrade my android studio? thanks in advance
With Android Studio 3.2 and higher, you can quickly migrate an existing project to use AndroidX by selecting Refactor > Migrate to AndroidX from the menu bar.
If you have any Maven dependencies that have not been migrated to the AndroidX namespace, the Android Studio build system also migrates those dependencies for you when you set the following two flags to true in your gradle.properties file:
android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true
To migrate an existing project that does not use any third-party libraries with dependencies that need converting, you can set the android.useAndroidX flag to true and the android.enableJetifier flag to false.
Just open your internet connection and it will automatically update your resources in android studio and it works.

Am starting out my first Android project. I have encountered so many errors but i have been able to fix some but this one has become pain in the head. How can I go about it
enter image description here
You can enable Jetifier on your project, which will basically exchange the Android Support Library dependencies in your project dependencies with AndroidX-ones. (e.g. Your Lottie dependencies will be changed from Support to AnroidX)
Android Studio Documentation (https://developer.android.com/studio/preview/features/)
Precondition for Jetifier:
you have to use at least Android Studio 3.2
To enable jetifier, add those two lines to your gradle.properties file:
android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true
Finally, please check the release notes of AndroidX, because jetifier has still some problems with some libraries (e.g. Dagger Android): https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/support-library/androidx-rn
I'm trying to migrate to AndroidX and we use this library in our project. However, this is currently causing an issue in our project:
Unable to resolve dependency for ':module#buildType/compileClasspath':
Failed to transform file 'localytics-1.3.0.aar' to match attributes
{artifactType=processed-aar} using transform JetifyTransform
Removing the library makes this issue disappear.
Is there any workaround that would allow me to migrate to AndroidX til this library is migrated?
Per the documentation: https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/migrate
I have updated my gradle.properties. The issue is not with setup, the issue is that localytics does not seem to support androidX. I want to confirm this if anyone knows since contacting them results in no answer (they have poor costumer service).
Someone posted a patch on Github:
Clone the repository.
Update the analytics-android-integration-localytics project to the latest
Android updates, including AndroidX. Generate a jar file instead of
an aar file. (This is the winning item here. It must be a jar file
for it to work. An aar file isn't needed anyway since there aren't
any resources in this project's aar file.)
Remove the existing maven dependencies in the consuming project.
Import the jar file as new module in the consuming project.
Rebuild the consuming project.
First of all please add following line in gradle.properties
android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true
Can you please share your build.gradle ? May be there can have another issue. Please update the following localytics library like this.
classpath 'io.fabric.tools:gradle:1.25.1' to
classpath 'io.fabric.tools:gradle:1.27.0'
If jetfier is not working on that library, I think you can try some workarounds such as:
Update the library (is v1.3.0 the latest version of that AAR?)
Disable jetfier as a whole (setting android.enableJetifier=false on gradle.properties)
Disable jetfier on that library only via:
on gradle.properties
android.enableJetifier=true
android.jetifier.blacklist = .*localytics.*
android.useAndroidX=true
This last option requires Android Gradle Plugin version
i have cloned a gitlab repository to a laptop. the import statements are gray in color(like unused imports). so the classes are full of errors. initially i was using this same project in another laptop. there everything was fine. should i download something or should i change some settings. the previous laptop had android studio version 3.4. this laptop is having studio version 3.3.1. does this version make any difference.
also in settings page, project-level settings is collapsed. it is not expanded. i dont know if there is any path set or default gradle wrapper is used. is this the reason for the problem?
You can set up your project with androidX by following below procedure
With Android Studio 3.2 and higher, you can quickly migrate an existing project to use AndroidX by selecting Refactor > Migrate to AndroidX from the menu bar.
If you have any Maven dependencies that have not been migrated to the AndroidX namespace, the Android Studio build system also migrates those dependencies for you when you set the following two flags to true in your gradle.properties file

android.enableJetifier=true
To migrate an existing project that does not use any third-party libraries with dependencies that need converting, you can set the android.useAndroidX flag to true and the android.enableJetifier flag to false.
also add missing dependency in your build.gradle file

How to migrate existing flutter project to Android X ? Are there any pro and cons?
You would require to migrate to Android X if you intend to use features that have breaking changes for the latest library. I personally faced this problem cloud_firestore 0.9.0 as the change log says, it required a migration to Android X.
Your Android app is in the android directory of the project. First open the android directory with Android Studio 3.2+. Then Refactor > Migrate to AndroidX. After that also add these to the gradle.properties file in the android directory
android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true
In your IDE menu, go to Refactor and use Migrate to AndroidX...
I did the same mentioned what has been mentioned by the last two answers. (Refactor -> Migrate to AndroidX ...) but it didn't help really. I still got the error by flutter that it's not a AndroidX project.
I fixed it by adding;
android.enableJetifier=true
android.useAndroidX=true
to
android/gradle.properties
Note, there are one in root and the other in android-directory.
I've refactored my Android Studio codebase to AndroidX successfully. But it is causing a few problems with some of my libraries.
I need to revert it since the app is going into production soon. How can I do it?
I had gone through the same, Follow the steps to undo the AndroidX Migration:
Remove following lines in gradle.properties:
android.enableJetifier=true
android.useAndroidX=true
Remove AndroidX dependencies in build.gradle of your app and replace them with their equivalent Non AndroidX dependencies:
e.g.
implementation 'androidx.core:core:1.0.0-beta01'
implementation 'androidx.appcompat:appcompat:1.0.0-beta01'
Sync Project with Gradle Files
After syncing you may have import errors in java files, you can remove the androidx imports and re add the equivalent non androidx imports
I hope it will help everyone facing migration rollback problem. If you get any conflict issues while performing above steps in Android Studio, try to clean and rebuild the project.
You can simply choose Migrate App to appCompat from Refactor menu in Android Studio.
Also, don't forget to delete these lines from gradle.properties:
android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true
I couldn't simply roll back in version control, because the app I wanted to roll back was androidx from its initial commit, but I was tasked with integrating the app module into a larger project without androidx.
Here's what I did:
Try syncing gradle and inevitably you'll get some kind of error. Here is the first error I saw:
Error: Attribute application#appComponentFactory
value=(androidx.core.app.CoreComponentFactory) from
[androidx.core:core:1.1.0] AndroidManifest.xml:24:18-86 is also
present at [com.android.support:support-compat:28.0.0]
AndroidManifest.xml:22:18-91
value=(android.support.v4.app.CoreComponentFactory)
Take note of the androidx package in the above error.
Run gradlew dependencies inside the module you're trying to migrate back.
Search the output for the androidx package mentioned in the above error. Figure out which of your dependencies from your build.gradle file is bringing in that package, then revert that package to its equivalent support library mapping.
Repeat steps 1-4 until Gradle sync finishes successfully.
Now you need to search all your .java files for androidx and replace each import statement with its support library package name. Tip for this step: turn on "Add unambiguous imports on the fly" in Android Studio preferences and just delete all the androidx imports. Most of them will auto-repopulate with the correct support packages.
Now your project should build successfully, but you'll likely run into runtime crashes due to androidx view components used in layout files.
Search all xml files for androidx and com.google.android.material, and replace each view with its support equivalent name.
Don't forget to fix any compilation issues in your tests, and re-run them to make sure they still all pass.
Do a hard reset on repository which was working before migration to android x.
Delete the node_modules folder, and type npm install.
