Build Failed - AndroidX is not Enabled
See original GitHub issue- I ensured that I have the required setup - Java 10, API 28, NDK 14b, local.properties file well-configured, etc. I have Android Studio 3.6.2 installed on my computer (which runs Ubuntu 18.04).
- When I try to build the project by using Android Studio or by running
./gradlew build, the compilation failed with the following error:
ERROR: This project uses AndroidX dependencies, but the 'android.useAndroidX' property is not enabled. Set this property to true in the gradle.properties file and retry.
The following AndroidX dependencies are detected: androidx.test:monitor:1.2.0, androidx.test:core:1.2.0, androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-common:2.0.0, androidx.annotation:annotation:1.0.0
Affected Modules: app, base-test, dictionaries, fileprovider, ime-addons, ime-base, nextword, overlay, pixel, prefs, remote
ERROR: This project uses AndroidX dependencies, but the 'android.useAndroidX' property is not enabled. Set this property to true in the gradle.properties file and retry.
The following AndroidX dependencies are detected: androidx.test:monitor:1.2.0, androidx.annotation:annotation:1.0.0
Affected Modules: api
I tried to fix that by adding the following lines to gradle.properties file:
android.enableJetifier=true
android.useAndroidX=true
but they lead to other problems, and I’m quite sure that if I had to add those lines by myself then there is something wrong in my process.
I would like to get some help here, Thanks.

oh, yes, you should not use any version other than
3.5.3. That’s the last version that works with the required NDK version we need.We will move forward to a newer NDK once the correct release is out.
BTW, You should be able to use Android Studio 3.6 and even 4.0, but make sure the Android Gradle Plugin is
3.5.3.Seems definitely related to Androis Studio Gradle update.
@or-git , can you check inside you
build.gradlefile.Please check that your gradle dependencie line should look like this
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.5.3'and not like this:
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:3.6.3'That might solve the problem.
@menny, which line do you have ?
