this is the logcat, not sure if this will help
Use getSupportActionBar available with support library v7 as described here on the 6. Retrieve the Action Bar section
getSupportActionBar documentation
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.example.secondapp.MainActivity.getActionBar
On your MainActivity class, you call getActionBar() which is not available to your application.
Your android:minSdkVersion is set to 8 (API-8), which does not provide getActionBar() (only since API-11).
You should use ActionBarSherlock for good backward compatibility, or set android:minSdkVersion but then all devices < API-11 won't be targeted.
This is because the getActionBar is a method of api 11, but you can do this:
if (android.os.Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 11)
getActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true); //example
and in the activity class add this suppress Lint:
#SuppressLint("NewApi")
I faced this same issue before. I just replace
getActionBar()
with
getSupportActionBar()
You are probably running on a phone that is lower than API 11, which is when the method getActionBar was introduced. If you need to run on devices lower than API level 11, then you will need to guard against executing those calls that only exist on newer API levels, or else use a compatibility library such as ActionBarSherlock or Action Bar Compatiblity. (See this thread for a discussion of the differences between these two.)
Change the android:minSdkVersion="8" to android:minSdkVersion="11" and all the newer API calls that you are making will light up as errors. This will make it easier to locate those parts of your code that need attention.
For api < 11 you have to use:
getSupportActionBar();
Algo make sure you are using appcompat, add this on build.gradle, the 19.+ should be your project target version.
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:19.+'
Also if you are using invalidateOptionsMenu() for navigation drawer use this instead:
supportInvalidateOptionsMenu();

Please help me to find out where I'm going wrong, I am currently on Android 4.3, API 18,
I've tried Android 4.0.3 API 15, Android 4.4W API 20; I have also tried editing sdk as below, but no luck.
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="15"
android:targetSdkVersion="19" />
4.4W is Android Wear SDK. (dont target to android wear device)
try changing target sdk version to 19
As mentioned in another answer:
Do not use API Level of 20 and Platform 4.4W, as Android Virtual Device. With Level 19 and Platform 4.2.2 set on ADV everything runs as it should.
I had the same issue. But sdk version was not the cause for this exception.
In the AndroidManifest.xml file you have the theme has ActionBar in it.
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
Change the above line to
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault" >
That will fix the exception.
4.4W is Android Wear SDK.
This error is because the device you are targeting is Android Wear which has a different design pattern.
If you are developing a mobile application, change your AVD and target any API below 20 or choose API 20 (L preview).
Or if you are really targeting for Android Wear, change your app design.
Am using Android Studio beta 0.8.6 with java 7.
I had the same issue. And fixed it this way.
In the AndroidManifest.xml file you have the theme has ActionBar in it.
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
Change the above line to
android:theme="#android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault" >
That will fix the exception.
As mentioned by Gangadhar in prev answer ,sdk version was not the cause for this exception.
And tested it with helloWorld app.
I got this error because I tried to run the mobile part of a wear project on the Samsung Gear device. After switching from "mobile" to "wear" in the run configurations, everything worked (API level 20 and platform 4.4W is indeed the right choice in this case).
I got this problem when trying to create the project in Eclipse.
I had to add the following to the manifest file:
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.type.watch" />
go to values/styles.xml and set the styles as follow:
<resources>
<!--
Base application theme, dependent on API level. This theme is replaced
by AppBaseTheme from res/values-vXX/styles.xml on newer devices.
-->
<style name="AppBaseTheme" parent="android:Theme.DeviceDefault">
<!--
Theme customizations available in newer API levels can go in
res/values-vXX/styles.xml, while customizations related to
backward-compatibility can go here.
-->
</style>
<!-- Application theme. -->
<style name="AppTheme" parent="AppBaseTheme">
<!-- All customizations that are NOT specific to a particular API-level can go here. -->
</style>
</resources>
Also, in folders res/values-v11 and res/values-v14, and all folders in values-vxx change the styles.xml file as follows:
<resources>
<!--
Base application theme for API 14+. This theme completely replaces
AppBaseTheme from BOTH res/values/styles.xml and
res/values-v11/styles.xml on API 14+ devices.
-->
<style name="AppBaseTheme" parent="android:Theme.DeviceDefault">
<!-- API 14 theme customizations can go here. -->
</style>
</resources>
You have not to add action bar themes as they are not compatible with wear devices.
Change target sdk version to 19
Install API level 19 and platform 4.4.2
Use API level 19 & platform 4.4.2 while running application in AVD.
I have struggle a lot to fix the issue. Nothing work for me except the changes I made in AndroidManifest.xml.
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="7"
android:targetSdkVersion="21" />
Remove android:targetSdkVersion, it worked for me, you can also try.
I've set my map following the instructions in this link. And set the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission in accordance with the recomended by the Official Android Documentation, that is request this permission only for API level 18 and lower. So, I have this manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.myapp" >
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>

<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES"/>
<uses-feature

android:required="true"/>
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/AppTheme" >
<uses-library android:name="com.google.android.maps"/>
<activity
android:name=".activities.HomeActivity" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<meta-data

android:value="#integer/google_play_services_version" />
<meta-data
android:name="com.google.android.maps.v2.API_KEY"
android:value="#string/map_api_key"/>
</application>
</manifest>
But I am facing this error:
Caused by: java.lang.SecurityException: The Maps API requires the additional following
permissions to be set in the AndroidManifest.xml to ensure a correct behavior:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
But, as it is showed in my manifest, I have this permission. One detail is if I put only the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission, without specifying the maxSdkVersion value, the app works properly.
Is this an Android bug or am I forgetting something in my app configuration?

If you check the link you've provided to the <uses-permission> documentation, you'll see that it states that:
it's no longer necessary for your app to request the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission when your app wants to write to its own application-specific directories on external storage (the directories provided by getExternalFilesDir()).
It would appear that the Maps API needs write access to other directories. And if you check the Specify permissions section of the other link you gave, it still lists the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission as required, with no mention of exception for API Level 19.
After having checked many, many online resources with regard to the Maps API, Android API Level 19, and the restriction of the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission, I found no source or example that listed or referenced a working example using the Maps API with that permission restricted to API Level 18 and below. Again, I quote the link you've provided that says the permission is not needed in API Level 19 "when your app wants to write to its own application-specific directories on external storage". (I would point out that it merely says it is not necessary in that case, and in no way "recommends" that you set this restriction absolutely.) The Maps API needs write-permission to external storage directories that are not owned by your app. The fact that "without specifying the maxSdkVersion value, the app works properly" indicates that even in KitKat, Maps needs that permission. The error is telling you exactly that.
I did some research around the maxSdkVersion. And I found the following
From google
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html
Warning: Declaring this attribute is not recommended. First, there is no need to set the attribute as means of blocking deployment of your application onto new versions of the Android platform as they are released. By design, new versions of the platform are fully backward-compatible. Your application should work properly on new versions, provided it uses only standard APIs and follows development best practices. Second, note that in some cases, declaring the attribute can result in your application being removed from users' devices after a system update to a higher API Level. Most devices on which your application is likely to be installed will receive periodic system updates over the air, so you should consider their effect on your application before setting this attribute.
I have something like this in my current working google app
<uses-sdk
android:minSdkVersion="11"
android:targetSdkVersion="17" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="com.google.android.providers.gsf.permission.READ_GSERVICES" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION" />
<uses-feature
android:glEsVersion="0x00020000"
android:required="true" />
So if you really want, you can try put that maxSdkVersion in the note, unless its what google is documented in the above link.
Hope this help
The XML code provided in the link is for Android API 12 or later.
Since your minSDKVersion is 8. Use this:
<fragment
android:id="#+id/map"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
class="com.google.android.gms.maps.SupportMapFragment" />

I am trying to test the tic-tac-toe in eclipse. It compiles and deploys to emulator device (AVD) but no matter what version of Android I use, the application deployed says: Application Stopped. Close it. Is there any specific setting I should follow?
Note: I already setup the Eclipse environment, add libraries, etc.
Thanks!

Exception states that it didn't find your GameActivity class. Check your Manifest and see if the name given there as the launcher activity (GameActivity) matches with the class that you have in your package, check the package names, etc. The exception has nothing to do (at least the piece that you have shown) with Cast.
Thanks for all the help. I solved by silly configuration. I created a libs folder and copied under GoogleCastSDKAndroid.jar (marked as Private Library). Compiled and it worked perfect!
Now, I just learned the casting function can't work because AVD runs a different IP address (in my case registered a 10.0.2.15) than my wifi segment (192.168.1.x). Therefore, the AVD can't see a chrome device.
I hope this last conclusion helps other people. The first was a mistake of configuration.

order of jar files
You should not only look at errors but also at warnings (orange text color in eclipse logcat view). Dalvik class loading are often preceded by some interesting informations about why a class can't be loaded by the Dalvik, something like a super class not existing.
I get the following error from the emulator in Eclipse when I run an Android application...
"The application has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
There are no error icons appearing in the project folder in Eclipse. I have already tried...
Cleaning the Project
Android Tools > Fix Project Properties
Updating the Build Path
My Error Log is saying...
"java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate activity ComponentInfo..."
The Error Log goes onto say...
"Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException..."
Just to note that I do not have a "Build.xml" file in my project folder but instead a "apktool.yml" if this makes any difference.
Any suggestions??

Here's the manifest file...

Whenever this happens it means your application has encountered a runtime exception, which means no errors will show up at compile time. In this case I'm guessing you have not declared the activity in the AndroidManifest.xml file, but without seeing more code that's only a guess.
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.ir.mtools.MTActivity
Is com.ir.mtools.MTActivity this part of some library? if so have you included it in your build path ?
