Does Facebook SDK 3.23.1 include the FBNotifications library?

I am following the Push Campaigns Quickstart at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/push-notifications/quickstart. At the beginning of the document, I found this paragraph:
Prior to sending in-app notifications you will also need to integrate
the FBNotifications library.
Based on the documentation at https://github.com/facebook/FBNotifications, I need to add the following to my gradle dependencies:
compile 'com.facebook.android:notifications:1.+'
I already have this in my gradle dependencies:
compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:3.23.1'
Does Facebook SDK 3.23.1 (com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:3.23.1) include the FBNotifications library (com.facebook.android:notifications:1.+)? Thank you.
EDIT: In the question at Android In-App Notifications Integration Popup not showing, the asker is using both 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.+' and 'com.facebook.android:notifications:1.+'. That makes me think that Facebook SDK does not include the FBNotifications library.

I was examining the code at https://github.com/facebook/FBNotifications/blob/master/Android/notifications-example/build.gradle and I found this block of code:
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.1'
compile 'com.android.support:design:23.1.1'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:8.4.0'
compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.+'
compile 'commons-io:commons-io:2.4'
compile project(':notifications')
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'
}
I see how the code includes both 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.+' and project(':notifications'). Conclusion: Facebook SDK does not include FBNotifications.

Android Studio gradle update error

I am working on geofencing app in Android. If I set the
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.4.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:9.0.1'
}
it works fine.If I changed it to
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.4.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:11.0.2'
}
I get following error.
package com.google.android.gms.maps does not exist
package com.google.android.gms.maps.model does not exist
Why? I need to set it to 11.0.2 for integrating it with other app.

Sync Project With Gradle File may help. Just click the button next to AVD Manager or navigate through Tools->Android->Sync Project With Gradle File.

Try to sync your project with gradle file but if gradle sync failed then download the latest version of gradle and specify its path under build.gradle and try to sync again.

you got to install the missing google play services.
Go to settings and update your google play services and google repository to latest version which is 46 means you got to use this version 11.0.46

Android Eclipse : How to resolve third party library dependencies corresponding to gradle build

I am porting an android application project built with non-eclipse tool, with gradle in use, perhaps the tool was Android Studio. I have the .zip file of the project. So, far I have put all layout,values and drawables in place. I am stuck at the last step of dependencies.
The project depends on Github : BlueJamesBond library and many others. This is the build.gradle dependencies
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.2.0'
compile "com.android.support:support-v4:+"
compile 'com.squareup.picasso:picasso:2.3.2'
compile 'com.nineoldandroids:library:2.4.0'
compile 'com.daimajia.slider:library:1.1.5#aar'
compile 'com.github.bluejamesbond:textjustify-android:2.1.6'
}
Now, the BlueJamesBond itself is using gradle and I have no idea how gradle works. I was expecting some jar of the library which I could have added in Build Path. Can anyone please suggest how to resolve the dependency in my project?

Android Firebase Analytics not Working

I followed the instructions at Firebase Analytics quick start, but even after 24 hours, no user session was registered at Firebase Console.
I know that my google-services.json is correct because Firebase Auth is working properly (both Google and Facebook users are visible on the dashboard).
My Gradle dependencies are:
dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:24.0.0'
compile 'com.android.support:design:24.0.0'
compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.14.1'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:9.2.1'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-maps:9.2.1'
compile 'com.google.code.gson:gson:2.1'
compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:9.2.1'
compile 'com.google.firebase:firebase-core:9.2.1'
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
}

At August, 1st 2016, Google Developers upgraded Firebase quickstart examples on GitHub
Firebase version was upgraded from 9.2.1 to 9.4.0, which seems to have fixed my Analytics update issues.

I was facing same problem what i missed in my project gradle file add this dependency
classpath 'com.google.gms:google-services:3.0.0'
and in my android gradle or you can say app gradle i add this
in last line
apply plugin: 'com.google.gms.google-services'

admob to deprecate sdk to replace with Ads SDK 7.0.0 - how to upgrade just admob jar in google play services

Let me show you my current build dependencies so you understand my frustation:
dependencies {
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:8.3.+'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-wearable:8.3.+'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-plus:8.3.+'
compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.7.0'
compile 'com.onesignal:OneSignal:2.+#aar'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-analytics:8.3.+'
compile "com.google.android.gms:play-services-location:8.3.+"
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-gcm:8.3.+'
compile 'com.android.support:design:22.2.+'
//for now disable wearApp dependency for PaidRelease builds
wearApp project(':wearable')
compile 'com.squareup:otto:1.3.5'
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
//compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:22.0.+'
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.+'
}
and here are my wearable dependencies:
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar'])
compile 'com.google.android.support:wearable:1.2.0'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-wearable:7.5.0'
}
Notice in my apps dependencies i am using 8.3.+ for the version meaning only update minor version changes. Admob wrote me the following a few days ago:
In order to ensure that your ads continue to serve after September 15th, 2016, please upgrade to Google Mobile Ads SDK 7.0.0 or higher.
They said one way to do this is to just update the entire google play services to 9.0.2. But I am not using entire Play Service dependencies. As you can see I just get the exact packages I need to save space and method count.
The issue:
If I were to replace the following line:
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:8.3.+'
with
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:9.0.2'
I am not confident it will work with the 8.3.+ jars I depend on. Wont I have to update the entire google play services jars I am using to be 9.0.+ also?

You're already using version 8.3 as denoted by play-services-ads:8.3.+, well above the 7.0.0 cutoff, so there's no action needed on your part.
