Development issue/problem:
After renaming the application package, Android Studio displayed the following error: The AppCompatActivity symbol cannot be resolved.
The things I’ve tried:
But nothing helped. The project was created successfully, but I can’t use syntax highlighting.
I used com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.1.1.

How can I solve this problem?
Solution 1:
Okay, for anyone who might be tripping over this issue right now: Android Studio is really, really, really weird.
Solution: Go to your build.gradle file and look for appcompat in the dependencies, for example compiling com.android.support:appcompat-v7:XX.X.
Edit it to compile com.android.support:appcompat-v7:XX.X.+.
Then click Sync Now in the upper right corner of the editor. All red scribbles should disappear if everything else in your code is correct.
Then go back to your build.gradle and change it to what it was and click Sync Now.
Everything should be fine, assuming you have the latest version of everything or almost everything.
Solution 2:
Let’s start step by step:
first clean project with
Build -> Remove
If that doesn’t work, use your other weapon.
File>Checked Caches/Restart…
But the real problem starts when all the above options don’t work
, so use your final project with your arms closed, go to the project directory and delete
Idea
You can reopen your project. It worked for me, and that’s usually a problem when working with VCS. And this problem not only affects the Android component classes, but also the libraries, both of which have the same error.
Solution 3:
I had the same problem, but when I chose the Invalid Cache/Restart option, it worked for me.
Try deleting all assembly files first.
Build -> Remove
If that doesn’t work, try this option.
File -> Invalid Cache/Restart
Solution 4:
If methods such as
Own project
Cleaning Android Studio’s cache
Coverage of the charging station network
Resettlement of FDI
File-> Invalid Cache/Restart
doesn’t work. Use this method to solve your problem.
From the Android studio come
Navigate to the .idea folder of your project.
Delete the .ideemap
Restart Android Studio.
That’s all I’m saying.
Solution no. 5:
The problem could be the import link, try changing it.
By:
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity ;
To:
import androidx.appcompat.appCompatActivity ;
Solution no. 6:
That was good enough for me:
– Tools > ANDROID > SYSTEM PROJECT WITH GREEN SURFACES
Solution no. 7:
I had the exact same problem a few minutes ago, and I solved it by doing Build > Rebuild Project.
I hope this helps.
Solution no. 8:
Only deleting the entire .gradle folder helped me.
Solution no. 9:
Oddly enough, that’s exactly what worked for me:
- Change the com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26+ implementation to com.android.support:appcompat-v7:26.0.1.
- Go to the → folder Invalid Cache/Restart
- Wait until the cradle is synchronized to complete the restart. You will then be prompted to add a Google Maven support repository. Click on the appropriate link and let Gradle resolve the dependencies.
- The bugs should be gone.
FWIW, in my case, the problem occurred after I moved my Android Studio installation to a new machine and upgraded to AS 3.1.
Solution no. 10:
Deleting the .idea file helped me. As Vikas Kumar said.
I then use it to correct the location error of the SDK.
Good luck!
