Question

I\'ve been having a lot of trouble in Android Studio trying to create an app with GoogleMap.

I have followed the following guide before with (almost) no issues usin

I was following the same instructions except I was creating a new project. Under the project structure I removed the Android-Gradle facet and was able to build successfully. Optionally one can update the gradle build files and add the Android-Gradle facet to the play services library.

NOTE: I changed the name of Google Play Services directory.

build.gradle for Google Play Services library.

apply plugin: 'android-library'

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.4'
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile files('libs/android-support-v4.jar')
    compile files('google-play-services.jar')
}

android {
    compileSdkVersion 17
    buildToolsVersion '17.0.0'

    sourceSets {
        main {
            manifest.srcFile 'AndroidManifest.xml'
            java.srcDirs = ['src']
            resources.srcDirs = ['src']
            aild.srcDirs = ['src']
            renderscript.srcDirs = ['src']
            res.srcDirs = ['res']
            assets.srcDirs = ['assets']
        }
    }
}

build.gradle for test app.

buildscript {
    repositories {
        maven { url 'http://repo1.maven.org/maven2' }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.4'
    }
}
apply plugin: 'android'

dependencies {
    compile files('libs/android-support-v4.jar')
    compile project(':lib-google-play-services')
    compile files('../lib-google-play-services/libs/google-play-services.jar')
}

android {
    compileSdkVersion 17
    buildToolsVersion "17.0.0"

    defaultConfig {
        minSdkVersion 11
        targetSdkVersion 16
    }
}
