Android Studio Compiling Issues

[jamessg]

Dear guys/girls,

I am new here. And I am new to android development. I hope I can find some help here as I have exhausted searching for answers on google.

I downloaded the latest Android Studio and imported the DavDroid project, I downloaded the zip files and extracted the dependencies like ical4android, cert4android etc.

I opened the Android Studio and it started running gradle build on its own and I am getting nothing on my emulator. Not sure what I am doing wrong. Any help is appreciated and I will be grateful if you can give elaborated steps for newbies like me please. Thank you.

[rfc2822]

Hello,

If it’s just about compiling, have a look at https://gitlab.com/bitfireAT/davdroid/wikis/how-to-compile

@rfc2822

I am not sure if there is something wrong with compiling or that I missed something compiling.
I followed your wiki under “Compile using Android Studio”.

It just doesn’t work. Funny thing is it says “Gradle build finished in 3s 554ms” but when I click RUN to go emulator, it says “Gradle build finished with 8 error(s) in 6s 381ms”. Where the errors are described in my first post.

Still getting:
