google place Manifest merger failed with multiple errors

I have read there (Google Places Autocomplete Can't load search results)
how to solve an issue about troubles with Google Place and have decided to use version 2.0.0 because it recommended. Initially, I tried to use version 1.1.0 in my project. But had no success. After you type more than 3 characters an options in the search list have evaporated or works unstable.
So my project can't be built with version 2.0.0. With version 1.1.0 project has build. I'm confused.
It's working:
implementation 'com.google.android.libraries.places:places:1.1.0'
But when I switch to version 2.0.0
implementation 'com.google.android.libraries.places:places:2.0.0'
I see the error:
Manifest merger failed with multiple errors, see logs

How can I update the version to 2.0.0?

You need to migrate your app to AndroidX to use v2.0.0. Google's migration guide states:
Version 2.0.0 of the Places SDK for Android now depends on
AndroidX. Beginning with this version, the old support library will no
longer be supported. In order to retain compatibility, you must
migrate your projects to use AndroidX.
If you're using Android Studio, you can refactor your app to migrate to androidx very easily.
Hope this fixes your issue.

The advice about migration to AndroidX support library was useful. Some preliminary actions were necessary done before. At zero I have updated Android Studio to the newest version. At first, I removed .gradle and gradle directorys. At second I have changed 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.1.4' -> 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.2.0'. After that, I selected from the main menu Migrate to AndroidX. I pressed "Do Refactor" button and have got a message:
Cannot perform refactoring operation.
There were changes in code after usages have been found.
Please perform usage search again.
Would you like to rerun the search now?
I repeated the refactor and it was ended normally. I have change version of Places to 'com.google.android.libraries.places:places:2.0.0' and my project has been built successfully.

Android databinding errors while building

I can't build project because of this error. I removed databinding implementation from one fragment and now project doesn't build. I checked carefully layout if I haven't left anything up there.
It throws error on Run tasks->:app:dataBindingGenBaseClassesMockDebug->Execute writeBaseClasses
I tried so far clean, build project, restart and invalidate caches, reimport project anyway shows same error without any clues whats wrong
Parameter 'directory' is not a directory

Delete the .gradle directory then invalidate and restart Android Studio.

I just ran into this while moving a bunch of stuff around in one of my projects. Nothing worked: invalidate/restart, nuking all gradle caches, clearing AS cache/settings, etc.
Then one of my colleagues suggested: git clean -fdx followed by a restart of Android Studio and it did the trick. It nukes anything in your tree that didn't come directly from your repo originally.

I found a solution but it does not make sense.
When I removed the project from android studio and re-imported it, the problem is fixed. However i deleted build folder or tried restart and invalidate caches it did not fixed. I hope it will help you

On a Unix-like system (Linux or BSD) do the following:
Exit Android Studio (or at least close the project)
Open up a terminal
Enter the following command:
rm -rf .gradle .idea $( find . -name build -type d ) $( find . -name *.iml -type f )
Import the project again from Android Studio

I just delete the .gradle folder and restarted android studio and it works

The error appeared after moving to Android Studio 3.1, Gradle 4.4 and adding apply plugin: 'io.fabric' to the build.gradle file. The Run Configuration worked fine just before update. The project is JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8 compatible. I also removed android.enableAapt2 = false from gradle.properties since it's deprecated. Any ideas what could cause that?
UPDATE:
gradle.properties was cached in C:\Users\MyUser\.gradle\gradle.properties for Windows. Obviously that file was used even when I switched to the wrapper. The changes to the project's gradle.properties didn't took any effect until I removed the cache. When android.enableAapt2 = false was actually removed, the warning was gone and I could enable Instant Run.

It is a bug in gradle plugin code that calls AAPT1. It was fixed but not cherry-picked, it should be available in the next released version (it should be fixed in 3.2 canary 3 and newer).
This only affects AAPT1. Removing the android.enableAapt2=false flag will make the code not hit this codepath (check your gradle.properties file and the extra arguments you pass to gradle from Android Studio).

I did below and it solved this issue:
In gradle.properties file:
android.enableAapt2=false
I disabled the Instant Run.(Important)

In your gradle properties:
remove android.enableAapt2=false, and upgrade the buildToolVersion in your app build.gradle and in all the other modules(if used) too.
Run the command gradlew --info assembleDebug in your terminal and check for other errors and if you find them then manually go and fix them.
In my case there was a 9 patch image which was causing all the trouble.
Try to clean and rebuild your project.
Or
Try to disable instant run feature and see if it works.
Or
Try and enable multiDexEnabled.
defaultConfig {
multiDexEnabled true
}
Or
File -> Invalidate caches and restart

You can follow any of the following ways to fix the issue:
For Android studio 3.1 or <3.2
Update gradle.properties file with android.enableAapt2=false
Disable Instant Run(Ctrl+shift+A(win+Linux) or Command+shift+A(Mac) then search for Instant run).
For Android studio 3.2 or later
Update Android studio to 3.2
Update gradle.properties file with android.enableAapt2=true
You can keep remain enable the Instant run now.

Open the File tab and then click on Invalidate Caches \ Restart.
It worked for me :).

Android: Compilation error with v7 support lib 27.1.0 "Program type already present" android.support.v7.recyclerview.extensions.ListAdapter

I think there must be a bug with the 27.1.0 v7 support lib, just released. After updating my project to use it (from 26.1.0), I keep getting this compilation error:

I have looked at my project's dependencies (with ./gradlew :<module>:dependencies [where <module> is all my modules]) and verified that I have only one dependency that should be pulling in the support ListAdapter class, and it is this one:
implementation "com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:27.1.0"
I also use
configurations.all {
resolutionStrategy {
...
force "com.android.support:recyclerview-v7:27.1.0"
}
}
I have tried cleaning/rebuilding. I have tried invalidating caches and restarting. I have also tried manually deleting all my build folders and .gradle folders. I have also tried disabling D8, but then my build just hangs forever. The problem persists. I'm not even using ListAdapter!

Figured it out! Turns out the android.arch.paging:runtime-1.0.0-alpha4-1 dependency also had ListAdapter declared. After updating the paging lib to alpha6, the problem was resolved.
EDIT For some reason, this question is getting a lot of attention! So, I thought I'd add this comment as a "teach a person to fish" sort of moment. The question: how did I figure out where my ListAdapters were coming from? The answer? If you're using Android Studio / IntelliJ IDEA, hit ctrl+n to begin searching for class names. You'll see this dialog:
Please note the checkbox! If you don't have that checked, you will never find a class included by a library. With it checked, it'll show the provenance of every class in your project.

Simply updating all my dependencies, cleaning and rebuilding the project did the trick for me. I think there's some kind of dependency/library conflict going on. An outdated library may be trying to use an older version of support library while you are trying to use a newer version somewhere else.

AAPT2 error: this error happened as soon as I updated my android studio to the latest version

I tried "multiDexEnabled true" as well as "android.enableAapt2=false", but the error continues to come. There seems to be some build problem. What is it?

Try to change the compileSdkVersion to: compileSdkVersion 28
and targetSdkVersion 26
This works for me.

try to execute :
./gradlew clean
./gradlew assemble
if doesn't work try w Clean and Rebuild the project. Finally, go to
Files > Invalidate caches

The problem is with the PNG files it might be corrupted. Sometimes the images are listed as PNG but are not real PNGs.
You can get the list of such images by typing the following code in android terminal
find . -type f -name "*.png" | xargs -L 1 -I{} file -I {} | grep -v 'image/png; charset=binary$'
After that, you can convert those to PNG and try again.
Don't add this android.enableAapt2=false as it is deprecated and won't be supported.

I just had this problem when trying to use data bind and declaring the layout tag. What I did to resolve the issue after so many attempts was that on your root layout when you are not using data bind say for example this
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".MainActivity"> </android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>
remove the
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
and just put it on your layout tag(that is if you are using data binding)
<layout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
</layout>
and hopefully it will work. the android.enableAapt2=false didn't work for me so I have to remove everything and try to figure out why I get the error when I put layout tag and use data binding thus I came up with the solution. Hope it helps

It happened with me when I updated Android studio to 3.4.0.
I did change in Project level build.gradle file...
dependencies {
//classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.4.0' //Previus default set up
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.3.1' // Now working fine
}
