today I've updated my Eclipse (Win7 x86_64) with latest android updates and it caused some errors. First of all, after cleaning project Eclipse didn't generate R files. I've tried to find any possible error in my xml files, although - there was none. I've copied my project and opened it with Eclipse without latest updates on Arch Linux - Eclipse generated R file and everything was OK. I think that's also important to mention, that after updating Eclipse on Windows the new code, that I've written didn't work - worked perfectly on Linux's instance. I've copied all R files and folders to Windows, yet couldn't run app, because my apk was missing and after that I've just gave up.
Anyone had similar problems or is there any possible solution?
i had experienced the same. For the new SDK(ver 22.0.1), we need to install a new tool Android SDK Build Tools.
After that, update the eclipse ADT.
Restart the eclipse.
Then clean and run the project.
I had a similar experience some versions back. The work-around I found was to setup an entirely new and separate IDE instance including a different SDK folder location. Install from scratch! Good luck ...

I am working on someone's else app, which I have cloned from another repository. While running the application, I keep on getting an error message.
The error message which I get is the following:-
Invalid injected android support version '202.7660.26.42.7351085',
expected to be of the form 'w.x.y.z'
The system is running on OpenJDK version "1.8.0_292"
The Android Studio is currently on its version 4.2.1
I tried upgrading the Android Studio, to the Canary Channel, but the problem seems to still exist.
Update
The problem is solved, just upgrade to Arctic Fox(2020.3.1) and it works like a charm. The problem was, the file had dependencies, which were incompatible with my machine. So it didn't work out well initially.
I think maybe that android project is using some feature that is still under development and not released yet
Try to Update Android Studio, this problem appear on older versions. hope this will work

My company gave me a 4 year old Android Project that I have to fix. I've been used to working with IntelliJ and Android Studio for a while now. At first sight I saw this was an eclipse project and I've tried numerous things to get this to work on Android Studio, more specifically like the following.
I'm also trying to integrate Gradle in this project. But even after trial and error I do not get the expected result that I normally get with my own projects, note the arrows I usually get with my other projects. Now it looks totally different.
Any help or tips on how to get this old project back on its feet is highly appreciated.
This could help you a lot:
Migrating from Eclipse ADT
Another critical thing is that if you are a keyboard-oriented programmer, it will take some time to get used to Android Studio's shortcuts. Even though it has some eclipse shortcut support.
Which can be easily found in here:
Eclipse Shortcuts
Good luck.
You can follow the following steps, no need to export the projcet as Gradle, Android Studio (AS) provides this by default,
Go to File menu and select New -> Import Project
next from the File browser select your Eclipse Project folder,
click Next in the subsequent steps and lastly Finish to successfully import the project
There may be some dependncies of your project but you can read the instructions provided by the Android Studio import dialogs and handle them,
ask further if you need help.
In the worst case scenario, you can always make a project by the same name, copy the sources (and resources) into their corresponding package, move the relevant stuff from the old AndroidManifest to the new, and add the external dependencies (such as that Google Play Lib for example) through Gradle itself.
If the project uses NDK, then you're gonna have a bad time though, because that requires setting up the Gradle experimental branch.

What are the main differences between using Eclipse with the Android plugin and the standard Android Studio?
Which one do you recommend? (I guess it varies with how we plan to use it).
Thank you in advance for the help
Please use Android Studio, Eclipse is no longer supported. You can import your Eclipse projects and use them in android studio. Also check the following questions:
Android Studio vs Eclipse with ADT (2015)
Which Android IDE is better - Android Studio or Eclipse?
Finally, I found the following two reasons to be great positives to use Android Studio:
It supports gradle (this allows you to really have control over the build, create different application flavors, different signing configurations and so on).
It feels better. From doing a refactoring (like renaming a method, to extracting a class) to viewing the Logcat. The refactoring seem more solid and the Logcat does not "disappear" as it happens in Eclipse.
Eclipse is basically for Java program development and used for Android with ADT, whereas Android Studio is available specifically for Android development and you will get a lot of help with it.
Studio is definitely better for designing layouts running emulators.
Studio provides better debugging and help popups when you start coding.
I would recommend you go ahead with Android Studio as it will prove to be helpful even if you stuck somewhere with the method names or anything else.
Eclipse sucks. Go for Android Studio which is based on the unbeatable Java IDE - IntelliJ Idea (known as JetBrains Idea these days).
Android Studio uses the dependency and gradle structure whereas eclipse do not use it.
I recommend you to use Android Studio. It is the Best for Android Programming. Some newer updates are not available in Eclipse. Android Studio does has.
These are few positives :
No R file errors, it gets generated at compile time and uses stub for development.
Very good and fast autocomplete feature
Preview of resources (Drawables, styles, etc) along side code
List of layouts used in a class file
Analyse code and fixes it using single click (LINT tool is used for this). This tool is very good, you also learn about your mistakes too
References of methods (shows parts of code from where a method is called)
Builtin support for ANT, Maven, gradle, git, svn, etc, etc
No need for extra plugins for Android
Better visual editor than Eclipse

After I have moved to the Android Studio, Projects which are imported from Eclipse are force stopping when build and running on emulator and on device. When they are build and running from eclipse its working smoothly.
I have tested on emulator all versions above 2.3., All are showing same problem.
And also tested on Samsung galaxy ace, Galaxy Core, Xperia and some Microamx devices.
Is there any options to be set for the android studio?
First Of all Go through this Documentation and check the new build system
and some useful blogs

I would suggest you to go through this link and cross-verify what wrong you may be doing to import your eclipse project to android studio :

I want to be able to run my Application in "Release Mode" in Eclipse so that I can enable ProGuard, but I do not know the steps required in order to do so.
I have tried the information at: http://developer.android.com/tools/publishing/preparing.html, but I find it quite overwhelming.
Can someone outline the required steps, or provide a link to a simple step by step tutorial?
EDIT: please note that I do not actually wish to release this app on the Play Store, it is just to test if I am correctly enabling ProGuard.
Enable Proguard
Uncomment the line in project.properties there's a comment that makes it clear which one.
Building
As you're using eclipse, I recommend using ant as detailed here: http://developer.android.com/tools/building/building-cmdline.html#ReleaseMode
There is a one time step of:
cd projectPath
android update project -p .
That creates the build.xml for ant. You will need to repeat for sub projects.
Open or create ant.properties and put this in:
key.store=path/to/my.keystore
key.alias=mykeystore
To generate this keystore see http://developer.android.com/tools/publishing/app-signing.html
Then at any time to create a build do:
cd projectPath
ant release
This will create a signed, aligned and proguarded apk.
At first,you must know the functionality of proguard and how to export your application in eclipse ide as a .apk file.Note the below link for your reference.Here,the process explained briefly.
