I had this same problem for three days   It is like android wants us to either use Kotlin Or AndroidX  they are doing away with Android   But this is how I solved it    I migrated my project to AndroidX  This does not bring in any errors related to this issue in question  It updates files respectively  No method  class or variable name needs to be changed in your application    NB  You must be using the latest Libraries  build grudle file  in the latest stable version of android studio 3 4 1

Reason of Fail You are using material library which is part of AndroidX  If you are not aware of AndroidX  please go through this answer   One app should use either AndroidX or old Android Support libraries  That s why you faced this issue   For example - In your gradle  you are using  com android support appcompat-v7  Part of old --Android Support Library--  com google android material material  Part of AndroidX   AndroidX build artifact of com android support design   Solution So the solution is to use either AndroidX or old Support Library  I recommend to use AndroidX  because Android will not update support libraries after version 28 0 0  See release notes of Support Library  Just migrate to AndroidX Here is my detailed answer to migrate to AndroidX  I am putting here the needful steps from that answer  Before you migrate  it is strongly recommended to backup your project   Existing project   Android Studio  gt  Refactor Menu  gt  Migrate to AndroidX    It will analysis and will open Refractor window in bottom  Accept changes to be done     New project  Put these flags in your gradle properties android enableJetifier true android useAndroidX true  Check  Library mappings for equal AndroidX package  Check  Official page of Migrate to AndroidX What is Jetifier

Simple Solutions - migrate into AndroidX  in the gradle properties  just add below two scripts  android useAndroidX true android enableJetifier true   What was the reason       All packages in AndroidX live in a consistent namespace starting with the string androidx  The Support Library packages have been mapped into the corresponding androidx   packages  For a full mapping of all the old classes and build artifacts to the new ones  see the Package Refactoring page    Please see the Package Refactoring page

User · Answer

If you do not intend to migrate to AndroidX follow the below steps   In terminal type gradlew app dependencies After dependencies are shown in the window press Ctrl f and type androidX You will find all the dependencies which are using androidx lib internally you may have to downgrade that or use alternative for that to ensure it is no longer using androidX libs internally
