I keep on getting the same error messages in both android studio and eclipse when I try to run my app on my phone(Samsung Galaxy S7 edge). Instead of posing a long question I will just post the pictures here. Hopefully someone has an answer for me. I asked a couple of friends of mine and one tells me it has to do with the sdk version I have installed on my computer but I have the latest android sdk installed on android studio and the other tells me that I have to change the parent value in my gradle file (see image 1 and 2) to the one I mentioned in the xml file. However I don't see any parent value in the gradle file(image 1) to change to the parent value mentioned in image 2.

Thanks a lot in advance.

  • Update your build.gradle file dependencies to the latest version along. Note that you will need to have an internet connection for the dependencies to be downloaded by Android Studio. Commented Oct 3, 2017 at 23:48

    play-services:+, besides being a horrible choice due to including all 15+ Play services dependencies and providing unpredictable builds given to it automatically updating your dependencies (always use a fixed number), currently pulls in a a version of the Support Library starting with 26, meaning you need a compileSdkVersion of 26 as well.
