Answer 1

Try importing the library without adding it to the workspace. In my case, that was the solution.

Answer 2

I ran into the same problem for colors.xml because this file does not seem to be present anymore. The colors that it contains earlier are now declared in common_colors.xml. You might want to delete the previous Google Play Services folder from your project to make a new copy.

Answer 3

Try importing the library from the same folder where the project exists, without adding it to the workspace.

Answer 4

This error occurred to me when I tried to update my version of Google Play services. The full process that worked for me was to remove the original project, remove all references to the game services project from my other projects in the workspace (that is, open the project properties and delete the playback services as an Android library project), and then import game services. I can’t remember if I completed Import Existing Projects into Workspace or Import Existing Android Code .

The trick that got rid of the errors "originally defined here" was to first remove the existing old project links.

Answer 5

I had the same problem and it was caused by some conflicting resource values ​​in the extras \ google \ google_play_services \ libproject \ google-play-services_lib folder.

Since admob and analytics are now combined in Google Play Services, I removed these items from the SDK manager, as well as into Google Play Services. Then I just reinstalled Google Play Services. This led to the removal of duplicate resource values, after which my build was successful.

Answer 6

You need to copy the entire $SDK\sdk\extras\google\google_play_services , including source.properties file

Answer 7

Delete the old project and add a new one, otherwise some files will not be deleted, which may cause problems like this
