APIs not available after adding AppProvider JAR dependencies in android studio - android

After integrating the API lib into my project using the menu item "Add AppProvider SDK Jar dependency" I cannot use any of the classes in my app.
I want to register an IVehicleClientCallback but the IDE cannot import the class.
The lib is contained in the libs folder and should be available for development.
I'm using android studio 2.2.3 in combination with the SDK version 1.0.

The problem is that the gradle script has been updated by the plugin but the IDE did not recognize that and didn't sync the gradle file.
To solve the issue, open the gradle file, make any change (and revert it again) and perform ther gradle sync. Afterwards you should be able to use the library.

Facebook SDK v.4 for Android: errors on Eclipse

I am trying to import the latest version (4.0.1) of the Facebook Android SDK into eclipse but I am facing issues in having the project being properly built and imported as a Library.
I followed the steps (for android studio, ported to Eclipse) provided in the official guide and looked through Google for other developers having the same problems as I am having but I am still not able to have it properly working.
Here are the steps I do:
Download the Facebook SDK for android from here: https://developers.facebook.com/resources/facebook-android-sdk-current.zip
Extract the projects
In Eclipse, import existing Android code into workspace
Select the folder "facebook" and choose the only project that is shown (the project is properly imported)
Right click on "facebook" project, properties, android and check "isLibrary"
clean project
At this point I still have issues for annotations and classes not found from "android.support" package.
Project's setting for Java compiler is "1.6", minSDK is 9 and target is 17.
I tried also to add the facebook library to my main project but it is still not working.
I tried to put java 1.7 in the compiler but it is not resolving the missing classes plus it is saying that to compile with java 1.7 I need to have min API set to kitkat (which I don't want because I will not be able to compile for 4.2 and 4.3).
I added manually the androd support jar from the SDK Manager folder of android and this resolved partially the missing classes but some did remain.
I am using Eclipse Version: Luna Service Release 1 (4.4.1) with JDK 1.7.0_51 and the latest ADT Plugin (all android components updated with SDK Manager).
Any help is appreciated.
I did some more tests and find out that by downloading the two libraries:
android-support-v4.jar
bolts-android-1.1.2.jar
from the github project (https://github.com/facebook/facebook-android-sdk) did the trick.
So the steps are the following:
Download, unpack and import as android existing code into workspace the latest v.4 version of the Facebook SDK for Android.
Download the two jars from GitHub
Set the Facebook Project as "isLibrary"
Add the two jars as "external jars" in the classpath
Set the java compiler to 1.7
clean and rebuild the project
Now errors are gone.
Download the facebook sdk from here.
Extract the zip file.
Import only facebook sdk project into eclipse as "Existing Android code into
workspace".
Now, this project will show many errors, do not open any java file or
resource file and do not try to do any imports or clean project until I
mention it to do so.
First add the v7 library to this project by doing right click on facebook
sdk project >> properties>>android>>Add Library.(If you don't have latest
v7 support library download it from sdk manager), also set the project build
target to the maximum android version available and select "is library".
Now, right click on facebook project and select >Build path>Configure build
path>Libraries tab>Add external jars> browse to place where you extracted
facebook sdk in step 2 and find two jar files in libs folder(android-
support-v4.jar and bolts-android-1.1.2.jar) and add both files. Switch to
"order and export" tab and select both the jar files and click on ok.
Now right click on facebook sdk >>properties>>Java Complier>>set the
"compiler compliance level to 1.7 or more and use default compliance settings.
Now select the project and click on Project > Clean.
This should remove all errors now. This is how it worked for me.

Cant use the Android SDK Classes after Exporting Generated Gradle to Android Studio

I had generated gradle files for a project created using Eclipse ADT. After Importing into Android Studio using the Import Gradle option, I am not able to use any of the classes present in the Android SDK for example the Button Manager.
The icon for my java files changed
Secondly, how can I merge two projects inside a single app ?
Please suggest me any link from where I can begin using Gradle?

How to update a legacy Android project using Android Studio without using Gradle

I've an old project developed using Eclipse. Now, I want to use Android Studio to continue to development (for the sake of better IDE), but I don't want to use Gradle.
I was able to build/debug the project when I open the legacy project using Android Studio, but I find no way to update an existing jar in the libs folder.
What I found on the interweb is that I need to use Gradle, but I don't even have a Gradle file right now, so, it is possible to replace a newer version of jar in libs folder without using Gradle?

Migrating from eclipse ADT to Android Studio

I have Updated my sdk and all things gone wrong
my Appcompat v7 and play services libraries are giving errors without any reason.
I cannot build my project to gradle
is there any easiest way to move my project to android studio without gradle project?
I dont think you need to worry about gradle.
Install any extra libs, sdks that you want.
Download/install AS 1.0.1 to somewhere in fileSys where you have RW privledges, and then get used to AS by just clone a git project like this
go to AS and follow "import non AS project" giving the folder of where you cloned the git proj.
Gradle builds on this cloned and imported project should just work ..... no gradle knowledge reqd.
then go back to your Appcompat V7 guy with the issues and try to import it as non AS .. the IDE will make a copy of the orig proj. and it should sync and build OK. Gradle wrapper stuff will be handled as part of the import process so you dont have to immediately know all kinds of gradle build trivia.
In long run , if u do android , you're going to need to pick up gradle. this

Exporting an eclipse project as gradle

I have been trying to export my eclipse project as a gradle build file to use it with Android Studio but I can't seem to make it work correctly.
When I click "Finish" nothing happens. If I repeatedly click it, I can see a progress bar that shows for a millisecond and then vanishes.
My ADT is version 22.3 (which is the latest) and I have tried all of the solutions I found on google as well.
Similar questions can be found here:
Eclipse Gradle export of Android project does nothing
Cannot generate gradle.build files from Eclipse
As you can see, there is not really a solid solution for this problem, but people wrote they created it manually. I don't know how to do so though.
Is there any solution for this problem that I haven't heard of? If not, how can I create the file manually?
Apparently, the current edition of the export-to-Gradle support in Eclipse cannot handle a project that is attached to an Android library project. In that case, you would need to (temporarily) detach the Android library project, export the main project, then modify build.gradle to use the library project (manually or via Android Studio).
Generating build.gradle files FIRST FOR ALL of the projects in my dependencies ONE AFTER ANOTHER worked for me.
I generated build.gradle (with export wizrd for facebook, play and whatever other projects I imported and used in my project).
For not trivial Android project you should do it manually.
For the latest build.gradle template for classic Android project check gh.c/N/n-1/b/m/o.n.e.e.g/docs/android/build.gradle.
You can continue to develop in Eclipse with ADT and run Gradle build using Nodeclipse/Enide Gradle for Eclipse
