Since moving to ADK14, I have been unable to build new apks for release on my Windows 7 system.

Building fails with \"conversion to dalvik format failed with error 1

Answer 1

You can easily get around this error with Maven's compiler plugin while having only JDK 1.7 installed. Check out my blog post on how to do it.
