Fighting with Unresolved class in AndroidManifest.xml - android

When I load up Android Studio and build my project I get a unresolved class in my manifest file.
<activity
android:name="com.google.zxing.client.android.CaptureActivity" //THIS IS WHERE THE ERROR POINTS TO
android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden"
android:screenOrientation="landscape"
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="google.zxing.client.android.SCAN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
I also added its reference to my build.gradle
dependencies {
implementation fileTree(include: ['*.jar'], dir: 'libs')
implementation 'com.android.support:support-v4:28.0.0-rc01'
implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:28.0.0-rc01'
implementation 'com.journeyapps:zxing-android-embedded:3.0.2#aar'
implementation 'com.google.zxing:core:3.3.2'
//...More dependencies below
}
I have tried cleaning and rebuilding, running my gradle file, restarting Android Studio but I am still getting that unresolved class issue. I believe it might be that CaptureActivity is no longer being used. This is just speculation. I have gone through the android developer site to see if I can find it but no such luck.
EDIT
Iforgot to mention that I first saw this when I ran the code analyze. Analyze->Inspect Code. Its under Android Resource Validation.
UPDATE! Please read
After making this change I seem to have an issue when I clean/rebuild my project
D:\Foo_Workspace\Library Build\Foo\mobile\src\main\AndroidManifest.xml:151:13-50 Error:

Class in manifest is wrong, change it to
<activity
android:name="com.journeyapps.barcodescanner.CaptureActivity"
android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden"
android:screenOrientation="landscape"
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateAlwaysHidden"
tools:replace="screenOrientation,android:theme" />
Also Better update gradle dependencies
implementation ('com.journeyapps:zxing-android-embedded:3.6.0') { transitive = false }
implementation 'com.google.zxing:core:3.3.0'

Problem with flutter plugin (Image Cropper)

I'm creating a app which will work with images, some of them will need to be cropped and some not. I have added the library:
image_cropper: ^1.3.1
I have installed the dependencies in android manifest:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<!-- Don't delete the meta-data below.
This is used by the Flutter tool to generate GeneratedPluginRegistrant.java -->
<meta-data
android:name="flutterEmbedding"
android:value="2" />
// This is wat I had to add as said in the pub.dev from icon cropper
<activity
android:name="com.yalantis.ucrop.UCropActivity"
android:screenOrientation="portrait"
android:theme="#style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar"/>
</application>
</manifest>
But when I run my application I receive the following error:

React-native error: Manifest merger failed

Running my app got this error:
Manifest merger failed : Attribute application#appComponentFactory value=(androidx.core.app.CoreComponentFactory) from [androidx.core:core:1.0.0] AndroidManifest.xml:22:18-86

I've tried to add to gradle.properties

and also (to AndroidManifest)
tools:replace="android:appComponentFactory"
android:appComponentFactory="whateverString"
and also (to build.gradle)

but not working for me.

It means that one of your libraries is using AndroidX. So, you have to convert your app to AndroidX.
android.useAndroidX=true android.enableJetifier=true Put these lines in your gradle.properties.
npm install --save-dev jetifier
npx jetify
npx react-native run-android (your app should correctly compile and work)
Call npx jetify run in the postinstall target of your package.json (Any time your dependencies update you have to jetify again)

Unresolved package "generated" in AndroidManifest.xml

In my Android Studio androidManifest.xml file, I found an unresolved package generated. How can I fix it?
The issued code is : android:name=".provider.generated.SquawkProvider
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

</application>
</manifest>

This issue stems from annotation processing now being included in Gradle from version 2.2. You can fix project and get it running with the following changes.
Project level "build.gradle" remove this line:
classpath 'com.neenbedankt.gradle.plugins:android-apt:1.2'
App level "build.gradle" remove this line:
apply plugin: 'android-apt'
and change this line replacing apt with annotationProcessor:
apt 'net.simonvt.schematic:schematic-compiler:0.6.3'

In build.gradle(Module:app)
remove this two line
1) Top on the file
apply plugin: 'android-apt'
2) in dependencies
apt 'net.simonvt.schematic:schematic-compiler:0.6.3'
add this
annotationProcessor 'net.simonvt.schematic:schematic-compiler:0.6.3'

If the above responses don't work for you, make sure you are using the latest version of Android Studio and gradle plugin (4.4 as of this post) and have changed all the 'compile' lines with 'implementation'.
After that try Build -> Clean Project then Build -> Rebuild Project. (All of this after following #drspaceboo's answer of deleting classpath and plugin lines, then changing apt to annotationProcessor.)

Try this:-
Go to File -> Invalidate Caches / Restart and then Invalidate and Restart.

VideoCastControllerActivity: ActivityNotFoundException

android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {com.newco.cooltv.qa/com.google.android.libraries.cast.companionlibrary.cast.player.VideoCastControllerActivity}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml?
i am using cast companion library and tried both way
(1) Add this library from jCenter repo by adding the following line to your project's dependencies:
(2) Use the GitHub source and include that as a module dependency by following these steps:
Both are failing with above exception after call to
loadRemoteMedia(mediaInfo, 0, true);
in build.gradle i have specified below dependencies
// lib for chromecast
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.4.0'
compile 'com.android.support:mediarouter-v7:23.3.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-cast:9.0.2'
compile project(':CastCompanionLibrary')
I am using Andorid Studio 2.1.2 and updated build.gradle of CCL with
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.1.2'
}

Make sure you declare that in your Manifest file, something like:
<activity
android:name="com.google.android.libraries.cast.companionlibrary.cast.player.VideoCastControllerActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:launchMode="singleTask"
android:theme="#style/Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar"

Found the solution to this problem:
gradle assemble -info gave me the hint that the Manifests have different SDK Versions and cannot be merged.
I needed to edit my Manifests and build.gradle file and everything worked again.
To be clear you need to edit the uses-sdk in the AndroidManifest.xml
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="14" android:targetSdkVersion="16" />
and the android section, particularly minSdkVersion and targetSdkVersion in the build.gradle file
android {
compileSdkVersion 17
buildToolsVersion "17.0.0"
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 14
targetSdkVersion 16
}
}

In a general way, to see what is the error, you can see the merged Manifest File in Android studio
Go on your manifest file
Click on the bottom tab "Merged Manifest"
On the right screen, in "Other Manifest Files", check for any error due to graddle :

I wish the Lukas Olsen solution works for other scenarios, But in my case is quite different.
I faced the same while add ActionBarShelock to project, by comparing to the older library I found that application tag is missing in manifest. By adding one line I fixed my issue.
</application>

i solved by putting this one line in application tag...
tools:node="replace"

This appears to occur because Google Play Services require Android 2.2, which is SDK version 8.
In build.gradle, make sure your minSdkVersion is at least 8. The default appears to be 7. So you have something like this:
android {
compileSdkVersion 17
buildToolsVersion "17.0.0"
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 8
targetSdkVersion 16
}
}
dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:13.0.+'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:3.1.36'
}

I also faced this error when I was adding firebase push notifications in my app. but in my case I was doing a very silly mistake which i noticed after some time.
I declared below code in manifest two times. After removing duplicate declaration. my issue solved.
<service android:name="com.evampsaanga.mytelenor.firebase.MyFirebaseInstanceIDService">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.google.firebase.INSTANCE_ID_EVENT" />
</intent-filter>
</service>`
so you also check if there is anything duplicate in your app manifest file.

Maybe it's because of duplicate Activity declaration in your manifest.

If you add dependencies such as ActionBarSherlock by Gradle,
carefully set your targetSdkVersion 17 or above.
Below quote is --info logs when ActionBarSherlock mismatch with private project.
[C:\Me\Documents\GitHub\project\AndroidManifest.xml:3, C:\Me\Documents\GitHub\project\build\exploded-bundles\ComActionbarsherlockActionbarsherlock440.aar\AndroidManifest.xml:2] Main manifest has but library uses targetSdkVersion='17'
:testApp:processDebugManifest FAILED
It would be better that maintains own project targetSdkVersion as newest as possible.

I came across the same problem and what I did to fix it was to add
tools:replace="android:icon"
to element at AndroidManifest to override

It could be a duplicate permission added in the manifest file. In my case
"uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" was repeated.

Just add these two lines at "gradle.properties":
android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true

For what I can see, if you have a multi-module project with Android Studio and gradle, the IDE try to merge manifest files from every module into a Main manifest.
If you have a module A and a module B, and in the A manifest you declare some activity from B module, gradle will enconter a issue when merging.
Try removing cross-module reference in manifest files.

2 things you need to add to AndroidManifest.xml:
1st: add xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" to manifest tag
<manifest xmlns:android=".........
package="...........
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
2nd: Add tools:replace="icon" to application tag
<application
android:icon=.........
android:label=.......
tools:replace="icon">

In my case,
I define the activity twice in manifest file
<application
android:allowBackup="false"
android:label="#string/app_name"
>
<activity
android:name="com.xxx.ActivityOne"
android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustResize" />
//Problem here.. same activity twice define
<activity
android:name="com.xxx.ActivityOne"
android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustResize" />
</application>
After remove the duplicate error solved.

In the manifest, add property android:exported="true" to the launcher activity tag
Edit (14th April 2022)
If you have multiple manifest files (eg.debug and release) make sure the android.name property is mentioned in both

I had the same problem and none of the other answers helped.
In my case, a comment in the manifest file was the culprit:
<manifest [...]
android:installLocation="auto">
<!-- change installLocation back to external after test -->
<uses-sdk [...]
(This might be a bug, seeing how comments in other areas of the manifest dont cause any problems.)

Found another possible solution for this when trying to update my Urban Airship to the latest version.
In my top-level build.gradle file the code looked like:
// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.12.2'
// NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
// in the individual module build.gradle files
}
}
allprojects {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
}
by default as generated by Android Studio. I changed this to a later gradle version by replacing this with:
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.13.+'
}
}
And after that the project would build.

I came across similar problem ,when I run
cordova build android
which report errors:
/home/app/phonegap/helloworld/platforms/android/AndroidManifest.xml:15:5 Error:
uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 7 cannot be smaller than version 10 declared in library /home/app/phonegap/helloworld/platforms/android/build/intermediates/exploded-aar/android/CordovaLib/unspecified/debug/AndroidManifest.xml
Suggestion: use tools:overrideLibrary="org.apache.cordova" to force usage
:processDebugManifest FAILED
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':processDebugManifest'.
Manifest merger failed : uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 7 cannot be smaller than version 10 declared in library /home/app/phonegap/helloworld/platforms/android/build/intermediates/exploded-aar/android/CordovaLib/unspecified/debug/AndroidManifest.xml
Suggestion: use tools:overrideLibrary="org.apache.cordova" to force usage
In my case,
uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 7 cannot be smaller than version 10 declared
,above solution do not work! but I solve them by replace
<preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="7" />
as
<preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="10" />
in this two file /home/app/phonegap/helloworld/config.xml , /home/app/phonegap/helloworld/platforms/android/res/xml/config.xml

This error might be because of an attribute left empty in the manifest file (AndroidManifest.xml).
An example:
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:logo="#drawable/ic_actionbar"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:fullBackupContent=""> <!--THIS Line-->
...
</application>
The fullBackupContent is empty in the above example.
When it's changed to android:fullBackupContent="true" it will be fixed.

For Manifest merger failed: Apps targeting Android 12
add android:exported="true"
<activity android:name=".MainActivity"
android:exported="true"
>

In my case...I was targetting API 31. In the newer API you have to explicitly declare exported=true or exported=false on activities and receivers so that other apps can launch them i.e if you have any intent-filters you should declare "exported=true".
exported info

Try changing:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
...
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="14" android:targetSdkVersion="16" />
To:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
...
<uses-sdk xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:minSdkVersion="14" android:targetSdkVersion="16" />

if you are using android studio you should run the android studio through the command prompt(in windows) or terminal(in UNIX base OS) so you can see more detail about this error in command prompt window.

I had these error since I didnt have the required SDK version installed. After downloading and installing the SDK version present in build.gradle/Android Manifest file, it got resolved.

In my case, it was because of duplicate permission in my Manifest file and minSDKVersion of library was greater than minSDKVersion of my project. I just made that minSDKVersion equal and compiled with success.

This Issue is raise because of
compileSdkVersion 26
buildToolsVersion "26.0.0"
or
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.+'
instead of this use
compileSdkVersion 25
buildToolsVersion "25.0.3"
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.+'

In my case I had written the tag twice. That was my only mistake It was before code`
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO"/>
<application tools:targetApi="28" tools:ignore="GoogleAppIndexingWarning" android:networkSecurityConfig="#xml/react_native_config" />
<application application tools:targetApi="28" tools:ignore="GoogleAppIndexingWarning" android:networkSecurityConfig="#xml/react_native_config" >
</application>
`
Just removing the application tag solved my problem.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW"/>
<application tools:targetApi="28" tools:ignore="GoogleAppIndexingWarning" android:networkSecurityConfig="#xml/react_native_config" />
</manifest>
The points you should have only one tag; can have more than one and , but one tag. That's what I know at this moment :)

Maybe you have some duplicated Activities
Like this:
<activity android:name=".register.RegisterStepsActivity" />
....
<activity android:name=".register.RegisterStepsActivity" />
just comment one of them

This is an answer for those who are experiencing a similar error while trying to run their Flutter app. To their credit, I discovered this by following Kevin ABRIOUX's answer.
My original error was:
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
* What went wrong:
Could not determine the dependencies of task ':app:processDebugManifest'.
> Failed to query the value of task ':app:processDebugManifest' property 'mainMergedManifest'.
> Could not create task ':app:processDebugMainManifest'.
> java.lang.NullPointerException (no error message)
* Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.
* Get more help at https://help.gradle.org
BUILD FAILED in 6s
Exception: Gradle task assembleDebug failed with exit code 1

Open the android directory in Android Studio.
Once the studio fully loads and the "Project" pane has content, you should be able to run your VSC debugger.
In my particular case I have a secret that gets referenced by android/app/build.gradle. If you are missing such a secret from android/local.properties then step 2. is going to fail. Thankfully, it will give you an error that will point to the missing variable. Save any such variable to the file, close the studio, and repeat step 2. again.
Good luck and happy coding!

I met the problem in another reason.
I was building app in Android Studio, and I had a app module and another module. App module depended on the other module.
But part of build.gradle of app module is :
<application
android:allowBackup="false"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:supportsRtl="true">
...
</application>
while the other module's build.gradle part is:
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:label="Android Lua"
android:supportsRtl="true">
</application>
So, I change the module's build.gradle part to:
<application
android:allowBackup="false"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:supportsRtl="true">
</application>
Problem solved.
