Gradle DSL method not found: 'compile()'
As the note of your project's build.gradle file suggests: // NOTE: Do not place your application dependencies here; they belong // in the individual module build.gradle files Remove the 2 compile statements in that gradle file: compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:20.+' compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:6.5.+' And then make your other (module's) build.gradle dependencies look like this: dependencies { compile fileTree ( dir : 'libs' , include : [ '*.jar' ]) compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.3' compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:6.5.+' }
