How to solve Facebook tools:replace="android:theme"?

I have

compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.16.0'

My manifest:

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
...
    <application
            android:name=".MyApplication"
            android:allowBackup="true"
            android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
            android:label="@string/app_name"
            android:theme="@style/AutoTheme"
            tools:replace="android:theme">

How to solve compile error:

Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugManifest'.
> Manifest merger failed : Attribute activity#com.facebook.FacebookActivity@theme value=(@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar) from AndroidManifest.xml:69:13-72
	is also present at [com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:4.16.0] AndroidManifest.xml:32:13-63 value=(@style/com_facebook_activity_theme).
	Suggestion: add 'tools:replace="android:theme"' to <activity> element at AndroidManifest.xml:66:9-70:47 to override.

1. Add xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools" to <manifest> element at AndroidManifest

2. Add tools:replace="android:theme" to (facebook activity) <activity>

Here is my manifest file

<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.company.product" xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools">

    ...
    
    <application
      android:allowBackup="true"
      android:label="@string/app_name"
      android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
      android:theme="@style/AppTheme"
      android:name="MyApplication">
      <activity
        android:name=".MainActivity"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:screenOrientation="portrait"
        android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenSize">
        <intent-filter>
            ...
        </intent-filter>
      </activity>

      <!--FacebookActivity-->
      <activity
        tools:replace="android:theme"
        android:name="com.facebook.FacebookActivity"
        android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize|orientation"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar"/>

        ...
        
      </application>

</manifest>

Try this.

 <activity
                android:name="com.facebook.FacebookActivity"
                android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize|orientation"
                android:label="@string/app_name"
                android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar" />

Replace to

  <activity
            android:name="com.facebook.FacebookActivity"
            android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize|orientation"
            android:label="@string/app_name"
            android:theme="@style/com_facebook_activity_theme" />

In your manifest, remove

android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar"
       

in the FacebookActivity

Edit: Do you use firebase as well? If so, have a look here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38101517/android-manifest-merger-with-facebook-and-firebase-libraries

You Just have to use the this in your Manifest for the FacebookActivity

  <activity android:name="com.facebook.FacebookActivity"
            android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize|orientation"
            tools:replace="android:theme"
            android:theme="@android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar"
            android:label="@string/app_name" />

Remove this line @android:style/Theme.Translucent.NoTitleBar

This will solve your problem

(This way you will avoid manifest propery conflict)
