Answer 1

you can correct it by adding these to your gradle.properties

   android.useAndroidX=true
   android.enableJetifier=true

but in some cases it wont be correct like libGDX games to work correctly in libGDX games you should change these codes in build.gradle:

configurations.natives.files.each { jar ->
        def outputDir = null
        if(jar.name.endsWith("natives-arm64-v8a.jar")) outputDir = file("libs/arm64-v8a")
        if(jar.name.endsWith("natives-armeabi-v7a.jar")) outputDir = file("libs/armeabi-v7a")
        if(jar.name.endsWith("natives-armeabi.jar")) outputDir = file("libs/armeabi")
        if(jar.name.endsWith("natives-x86_64.jar")) outputDir = file("libs/x86_64")
        if(jar.name.endsWith("natives-x86.jar")) outputDir = file("libs/x86")
        if(outputDir != null) {
            copy {
                from zipTree(jar)
                into outputDir
                include "*.so"
            }
        }
    }

to this:

configurations.getByName("natives").copy().files.each { jar ->
    def outputDir = null
    if (jar.name.endsWith("natives-armeabi-v7a.jar")) outputDir = file("libs/armeabi-v7a")
    if (jar.name.endsWith("natives-armeabi.jar")) outputDir = file("libs/armeabi")
    if (jar.name.endsWith("natives-arm64-v8a.jar")) outputDir = file("libs/arm64-v8a")
    if (jar.name.endsWith("natives-x86.jar")) outputDir = file("libs/x86")
    if (jar.name.endsWith("natives-x86_64.jar")) outputDir = file("libs/x86_64")
    if (outputDir != null) {
        copy {
            from zipTree(jar)
            into outputDir
            include "*.so"
        }
    }
}

it will work correctly.

Answer 2

This happened to me when I tried to migrate to Android X.The reason behind is that not all libraries have been migrated to Android X.

• You may manually remove dependencies. : Try to see all dependencies and find out the conflicting one. You may use Gradle View plugin for Android Studio or use class navigation from menu. (In android Studio: Navigation -> class; Now a search box appears and tick 'include non project items'; paste the whole class name creating error and search now; Find out the class having this dependency and remove manually!). Please check if you have any import statements left in files which uses the non AndoirdX dependencies still. If yes, please remove them too.

or

• In Android studio, Refractor -> Migrate to AndroidX.

or alternatively(manual way)

• add following to gradle.properties .

   android.useAndroidX=true
   android.enableJetifier=true

This makes Android Studio to migrate all dependencies. For more info please check here

Answer 3

in my case just change your firebase version from

implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:19.1.0'

to implementation 'com.google.firebase:firebase-auth:16.1.0'

Answer 4

I have a similar problem. In my case, it was because I am using Glide library and androidx. This solution works for me:

1. Set enableJetifier value to true
2. Update Gradle build tool to 3.3.0-alpha08 with Gradle version 4.9

Answer 5

In Android Studio menu Navigate --> Class --> All (check that "Include in all places" checkbox is on) type your Class (INotificationSideChannel) and you will see more than one package of dependencies - just remove one of it from your gradle.build! It often problem when you use both android and androidx dependencies in one project.
