I have a problem when using RC1 of MAUI that caused me to remove this part from the Android manifest:
<application
...
android:icon="#mipmap/appicon"
android:roundIcon="#mipmap/appicon_round"
...>
</application>
Now that it has GA'd, I'm trying to add it back in because in Android my application icon is not displayed - instead it's just the generic Android icon. When I add this back into my Android manifest like so:
<application android:allowBackup="true"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/appicon"
android:roundIcon="#mipmap/appicon_round">
</application>
I get compile errors that I have no idea how to resolve. NOTE: I DO have a file called "appicon.png", and it DOES work correctly as the application icon on iOS. The errors look like this:
APT2260 resource xml/microsoft_maui_essentials_fileprovider_file_paths (aka com.watchlikes.watchlikesapp:xml/microsoft_maui_essentials_fileprovider_file_paths) not found.
APT2260 resource style/Maui.SplashTheme (aka com.watchlikes.watchlikesapp:style/Maui.SplashTheme) not found.
APT2067 failed processing manifest.
If I take the android:icon and android:roundIcon attributes out of the manifest file it compiles correctly again. Any idea on what this problem is, and/or how to troubleshoot it?
Had the same issue and followed https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/maui/user-interface/images/app-icons?tabs=android under "Platform-specific configuration":
If your icons name is "testicon.svg" just change the manifest file like this:
<application android:allowBackup="true"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/testicon"
android:roundIcon="#mipmap/testicon_round">
</application>
I added PAYTM SDK in my project and now I am facing a problem with merging manifest file since the library has its own manifest file.
So I am getting
> Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugManifest'.
> Manifest merger failed : Attribute application#icon value=(#mipmap/logo) from AndroidManifest.xml:19:9-42
is also present at [com.paytm.pgsdk:pgsdk:1.0.6] AndroidManifest.xml:12:9-45 value=(#drawable/ic_launcher).
Suggestion: add 'tools:replace="android:icon"' to <application> element at AndroidManifest.xml:16:5-178:19 to override.
But after adding tools:replace="android:icon" in my application tag, my app has crashed at runtime by the following exception.
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: You need to use a
Theme.AppCompat theme (or descendant) with this activity.
Here is my manifest file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
package="com.example.demo">
<application
android:name="android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication"
android:allowBackup="true"
tools:replace="android:icon"
android:icon="#mipmap/login_logo"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:largeHeap="true"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme">

</application>
Just remove icon="#mipmap/login_logo" and theme="#style/AppTheme" from your Application Manifest and replace drawable ic_launcher in PayTM SDK with your app logo and that would do it.
Application will merge both manifests and you will get your desired theme and logo will be fetched from PayTM's manifest hence you would have replaced their ic_launcher with yours.
Finally, I have solved that theme issue by removing conflicting AppTheme's style from SDK.
first I'm just a beginner, I'm using android studio and I try to import an Eclipse project, I get this:
"Error:The number of method references in a .dex file cannot exceed
64K"
I try to solve it but I get a duplicate attribute name, is there a way to fix it?
<application
android:name="android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication"
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme"
android:name=".App" android:largeHeap="true"
tools:replace="android:icon,android:label,android:theme">
Error:L'attribut "name" lié à l'espace de noms "http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" a déjà été spécifié pour l'élément "application".
You must have only one android:name entry, which error message clearly tells you about. Not sure what you wanted to achieve by adding this:
android:name="android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication"
but if that's your way of doing inheritance, then it's wrong and must be removed. You need to have one android:name pointing to your application class subclass. If you do not provide custom application class then remove all android:name from your <application>
Try remove this from manifest file:
android:name=".App"
So your code be like this:
<application
android:name="android.support.multidex.MultiDexApplication"
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme"
android:largeHeap="true"
tools:replace="android:icon,android:label,android:theme">
I am using a gradle project with many different library dependencies and using the new manifest merger. In my <application /> tag I have it set up as such:
<application tools:replace="android:icon, android:label, android:theme, android:name"
android:name="com.example.myapp.MyApplcation"
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/application_name"
android:logo="#drawable/logo_ab"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme"
>
....
</application>
Yet I am receiving the error:
/android/MyApp/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:29:9 Error:
Attribute application#icon value=(#drawable/ic_launcher) from AndroidManifest.xml:29:9

Declare your manifest header like this
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.yourpackage"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
Then you can add to your application tag the following attribute:
<application
tools:replace="icon, label" ../>
For example I need to replace icon and label.
I fixed same issue. Solution for me:
add the xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" line in the manifest tag
add tools:replace=.. in the manifest tag
move android:label=... in the manifest tag
Example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
tools:replace="allowBackup, label"
android:allowBackup="false"
android:label="#string/all_app_name"/>
Try reordering your dependencies in your gradle file. I had to move the offending library from the bottom of the list to the top, and then it worked.
I just experienced the same behavior of tools:replace=... as described by the OP.
It turned out that the root cause for tools:replace being ignored by the manifest merger is a bug described here. It basically means that if you have a library in your project that contains a manifest with an <application ...> node containing a tools:ignore=... attribute, it can happen that the tools:replace=... attribute in the manifest of your main module will be ignored.
The tricky point here is that it can happen, but does not have to. In my case I had two libraries, library A with the tools:ignore=... attribute, library B with the attributes to be replaced in the respective manifests and the tools:replace=... attribute in the manifest of the main module. If the manifest of B was merged into the main manifest before the manifest of A everything worked as expected. In opposite merge order the error appeared.
The order in which these merges happen seems to be somewhat random. In my case changing the order in the dependencies section of build.gradle had no effect but changing the name of the flavor did it.
So, the only reliable workaround seems to be to unpack the problem causing library, remove the tools:ignore=... tag (which should be no problem as it is a hint for lint only) and pack the library again.
And vote for the bug to be fixed, of cause.
Final Working Solution for me (Highlighted the tages in the sample code):
add the xmlns:tools line in the manifest tag
add tools:replace in the application tag
Example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="pagination.yoga.com.tamiltv"
**xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"**
>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme"
**tools:replace="android:icon,android:theme"**
>
The missing piece for me was this:
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
for example:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
package="com.your.appid">
You can replace those in your Manifest application tag:
<application
tools:replace="android:icon, android:label, android:theme, android:name,android:allowBackup"
android:allowBackup="false"...>
and will work for you.
The following hack works:
add the xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" line in the
manifest tag
add
tools:replace="android:icon,android:theme,android:allowBackup,label"
in the application tag
tools:replace="android:supportsRtl,android:allowBackup,icon,label">
FIXED IT
HAD THE EXACT ERROR, Just add this tools:replace="android:icon,android:theme"
into your application tag in your manifest,
it works just fine,
You can replace those in your Manifest application tag:
<application
...
tools:replace="android:label, android:icon, android:theme"/>
and will work for you.
Explanation
Using such a dependency/library in your gradle file which has those labels in its Manifest's application tag may produce this problem and replacing them in your Manifest is the solution.
My problem is multi modules project with base module, app module and feature module.
Each module has AndroidManifest of its own, and I implemented build variant for debug and main.
So we must sure that "android:name" just declared in Manifest of debug and main only, and do not set it in any of Manifest in child module.
Ex:
Manifest in main:
<application
android:name=".App"/>
Manifest in debug:
<application
tools:replace="android:name"
android:name=".DebugApp"
/>
Do not set "android:name" in other Manifest files like this:
<application android:name=".App">
Just define in feature module like this and it will merged fine
<application>
I also went through this problem and changed that:
<application android:debuggable="true" android:icon="#drawable/app_icon" android:label="#string/app_name" android:supportsRtl="true" android:allowBackup="false" android:fullBackupOnly="false" android:theme="#style/UnityThemeSelector">
to
<application tools:replace="android:allowBackup" android:debuggable="true" android:icon="#drawable/app_icon" android:label="#string/app_name" android:supportsRtl="true" android:allowBackup="false" android:fullBackupOnly="false" android:theme="#style/UnityThemeSelector">
I was receiving a similar error on a project I was importing:
Multiple entries with same key: android:icon=REPLACE and
tools:icon=REPLACE
Fixed after changing the below line within the application tag:
tools:replace="icon, label, theme"
to
tools:replace="android:icon, android:label, android:theme"
This is new androidManifest.xml for flutter
<application
android:label="Your app Name"
tools:replace="android:label"
android:name="io.flutter.app.FlutterApplication"
android:networkSecurityConfig="#xml/network_security_config"
android:usesCleartextTraffic="true"
android:icon="#mipmap/ic_launcher">
please make to add android:label in the first line in <application, 'cause if you are using this package flutter_app_name will throw an error if the not sorted like example Above
So I have been following a tutorial titled 31 days of Android. I am having an issue with one of the tutorials. It calls for me to modify the androidmanifest.xml file but when I do but it doesn't work. Everytime I run the application it crushes after I press button 2. Here is the code they wanted me to add
<application
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:name="MyApplication">
and here is the code looks after I have added that code to my file.
<application android:icon="#drawable/icon" android:label="#string/app_name" android:name="MyApplication">
I did not add the android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher" because it gave me an error which read "no resoucre found that matches the given name". Any help would be appreciated.
The error is because there is no icon in your project,
Look in Project/res/drawable/ ...
The ic_launcher is the default icon, so just replace
android:icon="#drawable/icon"
By :
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
