Found the solution to this problem:
gradle assemble -info gave me the hint that the Manifests have different SDK Versions and cannot be merged.
I needed to edit my Manifests and build.gradle file and everything worked again.
To be clear you need to edit the uses-sdk
in the AndroidManifest.xml
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="14" android:targetSdkVersion="16" />
and the android
section, particularly minSdkVersion
and targetSdkVersion
in the build.gradle file
android {
compileSdkVersion 17
buildToolsVersion "17.0.0"
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 14
targetSdkVersion 16
}
}
Solution 2 - Android
In a general way, to see what is the error, you can see the merged Manifest File in Android studio
Go on your manifest file
Click on the bottom tab "Merged Manifest"
On the right screen, in "Other Manifest Files", check for any error due to graddle :
Solution 3 - Android
I wish the Lukas Olsen solution works for other scenarios, But in my case is quite different.
I faced the same while add ActionBarShelock to project, by comparing to the older library I found that application tag is missing in manifest. By adding one line I fixed my issue.
</application>
Solution 4 - Android
i solved by putting this one line in application tag...
tools:node="replace"
Solution 5 - Android
This appears to occur because Google Play Services require Android 2.2, which is SDK version 8.
In build.gradle
, make sure your minSdkVersion is at least 8
. The default appears to be 7
. So you have something like this:
android {
compileSdkVersion 17
buildToolsVersion "17.0.0"
defaultConfig {
minSdkVersion 8
targetSdkVersion 16
}
}
dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:13.0.+'
compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:3.1.36'
}
Solution 6 - Android
I also faced this error when I was adding firebase push notifications in my app. but in my case I was doing a very silly mistake which i noticed after some time. I declared below code in manifest two times. After removing duplicate declaration. my issue solved.
<service android:name="com.evampsaanga.mytelenor.firebase.MyFirebaseInstanceIDService">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.google.firebase.INSTANCE_ID_EVENT" />
</intent-filter>
</service>`
so you also check if there is anything duplicate in your app manifest file.
Solution 7 - Android
If you add dependencies such as ActionBarSherlock by Gradle,
carefully set your targetSdkVersion 17 or above.
Below quote is --info
logs when ActionBarSherlock mismatch with private project.
> [C:\Me\Documents\GitHub\project\AndroidManifest.xml:3, C:\Me\Documents\GitHub\project\build\exploded-bundles\ComActionbarsherlockActionbarsherlock440.aar\AndroidManifest.xml:2] Main manifest has
:testApp:processDebugManifest FAILED
It would be better that maintains own project targetSdkVersion
as newest as possible.
Solution 8 - Android
Maybe it's because of duplicate Activity declaration in your manifest.
Solution 9 - Android
I came across the same problem and what I did to fix it was to add
tools:replace="android:icon"
to
Solution 10 - Android
It could be a duplicate permission added in the manifest file. In my case "uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" was repeated.
Solution 11 - Android
Just add these two lines at "gradle.properties":
android.useAndroidX=true
android.enableJetifier=true
Solution 12 - Android
For what I can see, if you have a multi-module project with Android Studio and gradle, the IDE try to merge manifest files from every module into a Main manifest.
If you have a module A and a module B, and in the A manifest you declare some activity from B module, gradle will enconter a issue when merging.
Try removing cross-module reference in manifest files.
Solution 13 - Android
2 things you need to add to AndroidManifest.xml:
1st: add xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" to manifest tag
<manifest xmlns:android=".........
package="...........
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
2nd: Add tools:replace="icon" to application tag
<application
android:icon=.........
android:label=.......
tools:replace="icon">
Solution 14 - Android
In my case,
I define the activity twice in manifest file
<application
android:allowBackup="false"
android:label="@string/app_name"
>
<activity
android:name="com.xxx.ActivityOne"
android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustResize" />
//Problem here.. same activity twice define
<activity
android:name="com.xxx.ActivityOne"
android:configChanges="orientation|screenSize"
android:windowSoftInputMode="stateHidden|adjustResize" />
</application>
After remove the duplicate error solved.
Solution 15 - Android
I had the same problem and none of the other answers helped.
In my case, a comment in the manifest file was the culprit:
<manifest [...]
android:installLocation="auto">
<!-- change installLocation back to external after test -->
<uses-sdk [...]
(This might be a bug, seeing how comments in other areas of the manifest dont cause any problems.)
Solution 16 - Android
Found another possible solution for this when trying to update my Urban Airship to the latest version. In my top-level build.gradle file the code looked like:
// Top-level build file where you can add configuration options common to all sub-projects/modules.
buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.12.2'
// NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong
// in the individual module build.gradle files
}
}
allprojects {
repositories {
jcenter()
}
}
by default as generated by Android Studio. I changed this to a later gradle version by replacing this with:
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.13.+'
}
}
And after that the project would build.

I came across similar problem ,when I run
cordova build android
which report errors:
/home/app/phonegap/helloworld/platforms/android/AndroidManifest.xml:15:5 Error:
uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 7 cannot be smaller than version 10 declared in library /home/app/phonegap/helloworld/platforms/android/build/intermediates/exploded-aar/android/CordovaLib/unspecified/debug/AndroidManifest.xml

In my case,
uses-sdk:minSdkVersion 7 cannot be smaller than version 10 declared
,above solution do not work! but I solve them by replace
<preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="7" />
as
<preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="10" />
in this two file /home/app/phonegap/helloworld/config.xml
, /home/app/phonegap/helloworld/platforms/android/res/xml/config.xml
Solution 18 - Android
Try changing:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
...
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="14" android:targetSdkVersion="16" />
To:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
...
<uses-sdk xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:minSdkVersion="14" android:targetSdkVersion="16" />
Solution 19 - Android
if you are using android studio you should run the android studio through the command prompt(in windows) or terminal(in UNIX base OS) so you can see more detail about this error in command prompt window.
Solution 20 - Android
I had these error since I didnt have the required SDK version installed. After downloading and installing the SDK version present in build.gradle/Android Manifest file, it got resolved.
Solution 21 - Android
In my case, it was because of duplicate permission in my Manifest file and minSDKVersion of library was greater than minSDKVersion of my project. I just made that minSDKVersion equal and compiled with success.
Solution 22 - Android
This Issue is raise because of compileSdkVersion 26 buildToolsVersion "26.0.0" or compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.+'
instead of this use compileSdkVersion 25 buildToolsVersion "25.0.3" compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:25.+'
Solution 23 - Android
In my case I had written the
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO"/>
<application tools:targetApi="28" tools:ignore="GoogleAppIndexingWarning" android:networkSecurityConfig="@xml/react_native_config" />
<application application tools:targetApi="28" tools:ignore="GoogleAppIndexingWarning" android:networkSecurityConfig="@xml/react_native_config" >
</application>
`
Just removing the application tag solved my problem.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW"/>
<application tools:targetApi="28" tools:ignore="GoogleAppIndexingWarning" android:networkSecurityConfig="@xml/react_native_config" />
</manifest>
The points you should have only one
Solution 24 - Android
Maybe you have some duplicated Activities
Like this:
<activity android:name=".register.RegisterStepsActivity" />
....
<activity android:name=".register.RegisterStepsActivity" />
just comment one of them
Solution 25 - Android
This error might be because of an attribute left empty in the manifest file (AndroidManifest.xml
).
An example:
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:logo="@drawable/ic_actionbar"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:fullBackupContent=""> <!--THIS Line-->
...
</application>
The fullBackupContent
is empty in the above example.
When it's changed to android:fullBackupContent="true"
it will be fixed.
Solution 26 - Android
In my case...I was targetting API 31. In the newer API you have to explicitly declare exported=true
or exported=false
on activities and receivers so that other apps can launch them i.e if you have any intent-filters you should declare "exported=true".
Solution 27 - Android
This is an answer for those who are experiencing a similar error while trying to run their Flutter app. To their credit, I discovered this by following Kevin ABRIOUX's answer.
My original error was:

> Failed to query the value of task ':app:processDebugManifest' property 'mainMergedManifest'.
> Could not create task ':app:processDebugMainManifest'.

- Open the
android
directory in Android Studio. - Once the studio fully loads and the "Project" pane has content, you should be able to run your VSC debugger.
In my particular case I have a secret that gets referenced by android/app/build.gradle
. If you are missing such a secret from android/local.properties
then step 2. is going to fail. Thankfully, it will give you an error that will point to the missing variable. Save any such variable to the file, close the studio, and repeat step 2. again.
Good luck and happy coding!
Solution 28 - Android
In the manifest, add property android:exported="true"
to the launcher activity tag
Edit (14th April 2022)
- If you have multiple manifest files (eg.debug and release) make sure the
android.name
property is mentioned in both
Solution 29 - Android
I met the problem in another reason.
I was building app in Android Studio, and I had a app module and another module. App module depended on the other module.
But part of build.gradle
of app module is :
<application
android:allowBackup="false"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:supportsRtl="true">
...
</application>
while the other module's build.gradle
part is:
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:label="Android Lua"
android:supportsRtl="true">
</application>
So, I change the module's build.gradle
part to:
<application
android:allowBackup="false"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:supportsRtl="true">
</application>
Problem solved.

Duplication declaration of same activity in Android Manifest file.
Solution 31 - Android
compile 'com.github.wenchaojiang:AndroidSwipeableCardStack:0.1.1'
If this is the dependency you have added then change it to:
compile 'com.github.wenchaojiang:AndroidSwipeableCardStack:0.1.4'
and make sure that target sdk
should not be less then 15.

In my case I had into the manifest file an invalid tag structure, I had an opened activity closed but inside it where were ore activities (...)
which invalidates file correctness, to find it it took quite two hours, error reported missing/unknown <activity>
.
Solution 33 - Android
I solved this problem in Android Studio 3.5 by cleaning and rebuilding project.
Just click to Build -> Rebuild Project.
Solution 34 - Android
I had
tools:replace="android:allowBackup"
in my AndroidManifest.xml file.
I have got the exact information in merged manifest section.
After removing it the error got resolved.
Solution 35 - Android
In my case I took the code from React Native Android Docs I added the
+ <uses-permission tools:node="remove" android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />
+ <uses-permission tools:node="remove" android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
+ <uses-permission tools:node="remove" android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
but forgot the part I should add to manifest
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
After I add problem solved. Think that there is someone miss the same line like me.
Have a nice day!

The error happened to me while installing the "React-Native-Image-Picker" library. I was able to solve it like this:
Error:
> Task :app:processDebugManifest FAILED
I accessed this path which appeared to me in the complete error:
..\node_modules\react-native-image-picker\android\build\intermediates\library_manifest\debug\AndroidManifest.xml
When reviewing the file I identified the versions requested by the library:
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="21" android:targetSdkVersion="29" />
I modified in /android/app/build.gradle the following lines of code:
android {

defaultConfig {

I was getting the same error while running my script in Android Studio. I had a mismatch of Java versions.
What I did, and it perfectly worked for me, is entering the command below in my terminal:
export JAVA_HOME="/Applications/AndroidStudio.app/Contents/jre/jdk/Contents/Home"
echo $JAVA_HOME
After running the command above, now run your script, you will not get any error.
PS - to find Android Studio's JAVA_HOME
path, go to File -> Project Structure
