returned to Android Studio to finish an app after 2 month of not working on it. upgraded to Android Studio 3.0, and now my Gradle doesn't sync and I have errors I can't seem to fix.

the error is :

> Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugManifest'.
> > Manifest merger failed : Attribute meta-data#android.support.VERSION@value value=(25.4.0) from
> [com.android.support:design:25.4.0] AndroidManifest.xml:28:13-35      is
> also present at [com.android.support:support-v4:26.1.0]
> AndroidManifest.xml:28:13-35 value=(26.1.0).      Suggestion: add
> 'tools:replace="android:value"' to <meta-data> element at
> AndroidManifest.xml:26:9-28:38 to override.

my app Gradle is this:

             The API key for Google Maps-based APIs is defined as a string resource.
             (See the file "res/values/google_maps_api.xml").
             Note that the API key is linked to the encryption key used to sign the APK.
             You need a different API key for each encryption key, including the release key that is used to
             sign the APK for publishing.
             You can define the keys for the debug and release targets in src/debug/ and src/release/.

              //<service android:name=".GPSTracker$GPSTracker" />
        -->
        <meta-data
            android:name="com.google.android.geo.API_KEY"
            android:value="@string/google_maps_key" />

        <activity
            android:name=".MapsActivity"
            android:label="@string/title_activity_maps" />

  • use `tools.build:gradle:2.3.3'` – IntelliJ Amiya Oct 29 '17 at 09:11
  • use `26.+` instead of `25.4.0` – IntelliJ Amiya Oct 29 '17 at 09:13
  • both of them didn't work dear Amiya... anything else I might be missing ? – Gil A Oct 29 '17 at 09:18

  • what does this mean ? - "Error:Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugManifest'. > Manifest merger failed : Attribute meta-data#android.support.VERSION@value value=(25.4.0) from [com.android.support:palette-v7:25.4.0] AndroidManifest.xml:25:13-35 is also present at [com.android.support:customtabs:26.1.0] AndroidManifest.xml:25:13-35 value=(26.1.0). Suggestion: add 'tools:replace="android:value"' to element at AndroidManifest.xml:23:9-25:38 to override. – Gil A Oct 29 '17 at 09:24
  • my problem is here, I need to change the google play service version, but I don't know into what : – Gil A Oct 29 '17 at 10:13
