Irecently recklessly updated AS from 3.0.1 to 3.1, but project manager says 3.0.1 is the version to be worked with in our project. Is there a way to reset AS to version 3.0.1 without having to uninstall it?

Currently there is no direct way with which a downgrade can be done. I managed to do the downgrade by downloading Android Studio 3.0.1 from here and then running the installer. It will prompt whether to uninstall previous version, and when you allow and proceed, it will remove 3.1 and install 3.0.1.


On Windows 11 I went to Program Files/Android in File Explorer, right clicked on Android-Studio, deleted it, went and downloaded an older version of Android Studio from the archvies then installed it without any issues.


i also updated to Bumblebee .. just go to preferences and write "device manager" in search choose keymap and set a shortcut key for device manger click apply and ok and use the new shortcut to get the Avd menue


I was running Droidio (Android Studio) 0.6.1; from there I was not able to update to the newest version (a quantum leap to 0.8); I had to download it separately and install from Windows Explorer. But now the installation process is looking for old settings:


I got the error, "Failed to refresh Gradle project 'Platypus' Error: Cause: failed to find target android-19: C:\users\clay\AppData\Local\Android\android-studio1\sdk Install missing platform and sync project


...and the Emulator would eventually come up; subsequent runs of the app, the Device would be listed at the top (under "Choose a Running Device") - no more, though - it is only at the bottom as shown in the scream shot above, even on subsequent runs of the app...


The folders labeled .AndroidStudioX.Y only contain preferences and settings for the Android Studio IDE. They can be deleted at any time and Android Studio will still be runnable, but previous settings may be lost. As long as you selected "import previous settings" when updating Android Studio, deleting folders from older versions will do no harm at all.


The AndroidStudioProjects folder is exactly what it describes; by default, projects will be placed here. It can be deleted if there are no projects you care about in it. However, if you have not created a project in the folder, I am curious what is inside it that is taking up so much space.


Hey i have this issue where I first created an app, put it on playstore and then i tried to integrate google adsense into it later. I had to change some code in the build file which has now completely ruined my project and i can't even revert back my changes since i had closed android studio.


I've spent hours trying to fix the code but it just wouldnt work. I need to see what have i done wrong. In the previous version it was working fine. Is there any way to see the code in the previous apk? or reset changes or anything like that in android studio?


I am working on a project in android studio and would like to revert to a previous push. I attempted

VCS => Git => Reset Head (Hard)

but my project in Android Studio is unchanged, likely because I'm doing something wrong. I would like to revert the project in Android Studio to a specific earlier commit that I've pushed and I see on github. I do not care about any changes that I have made since the earlier push.

Additionally, I would like this to be done through the GUI within Android Studio if possible.


Android Studio Instructions: if you want to do this in Android Studio, press alt + 9 (or Command + 9 on Mac) to open the Version Control panel. Switch to the Log tab and right click on a previous commit. Select Checkout Revision.


Command line instructions: Open the command line tool you are using.Go to the Android app's Git directory (using cd).Execute git log and find the previous commit you want to revert to.


Open the Version Control Panel using alt + 9 and click on Log. This should show a list of commits. Right click on the commit you want to revert to and select Reset Current Branch to Here. This should bring up a list of options to keep or discard changes when reverting. Select Hard to discard any current changes and click Reset.


I'm using VS code installed via snap. The latest version has an annoying bug in it and I want to revert to the previous version, but I don't see a way to tell snap to install a specific version. All I see with snap info are the different channels which all yield to the latest version. Also on the Snapcraft website I can't select another version.


By default, snap keeps two previous versions of every package cached on your system. Thanks to that, the answer to your problem of returning the snap code to its previous working version is as simple as this:


That is "snap info" gives you the list of available versions.To install specific version you should use the information from the first column. In this particular example i install "5.14/candidate" version


While the response given by heslant is generally accurate, noting that the snap list command presents only the two latest versions of a package, it's worth highlighting that a considerable number of cached snaps are actually retained (as pointed out in the linked source by him and by Milan Bojovic, although it haven't received adequate emphasis).


P.S. I have searched for this solution to restore a feature that was "fixed" in a recent release, and had a hard time searching for a previous version of snap. Ironically, it was right there, within arm's reach.However, automatic updates for this snap are currently not viable for me (at least for the time being).


I'm new to GitHub. All of the tutorials that I have watched deal with uploading and downloading projects from GitHub. My question is let's say that I commit a project in android studio (Version 1). I then go on and add a number of methods to a class and commit that (Version 2). I then realize that my first version was more efficient. How can I pull and open version 1 from GitHub in android studio and work with that? Any helpful links would be great. Thank you.


Use reset or interactive rebase if you want to completely discard the version 2 commit, but be aware that this will rewrite published history if you did push version 2 already and anyone else that already fetched your change will have to fix their local branches after you messed with already pushed history.


On Android Studio Topbar click on Run/Debug Configurations dropdown menu -> Edit Configurations.. -> General tab. Under Installation Options you will find Always install with package manager (disable deploy optimization on Android 11 and later) option.


The behaviour is erratic. I solved it by reviewing my code.It turned out that there was a resource file that was invalid. Try reverting back to the last working version of your code before the current changes... Probably a known issue that will be/was resolved out of Beta


I've spent way too many hours to keep this to myself. The way I fixed it was that I noticed some hours later that I was using different layout version in res/ .... I have actually two versions of layout (layout-v26) and (layout). All this time I was modifying the other one and uploading different one. Maybe its just a newbie mistake but I hope somebody will find it useful.


I ran into the same problem and I realized, it gives some problem if you have same layout in multiple orientations(portrait and landscape). If one is changed other remains unchanged and then it creates a conflict. So android studio installs the one with the previous layout


I was also facing this issue and get solution by deleting build folder manually because some time ide cannot be able to delete this. So go to the app folder and find build folder delete this and after clean and build project and run again.projectname->app->build


The solution to this issue is actually very simple.Android studio is actually not detecting some small changes that you have made to the application. That is why it is installing the previous builds.The solution is easy -> Remove the previous builds.


The version history of the Android mobile operating system began with the public release of its first beta on November 5, 2007. The first commercial version, Android 1.0, was released on September 23, 2008.

The operating system is developed by Google on a yearly cadence since at least 2011.[1] New major releases are announced at Google I/O in May while still in beta testing with the stable version usually released to the public between August and October.


The development of Android started in 2003 by Android, Inc., which was purchased by Google in 2005.[2] There were at least two internal releases of the software inside Google and the Open Handset Alliance (OHA) before the beta version was released.[3][4] The beta was released on November 5, 2007,[5][6] while the software development kit (SDK) was released on November 12, 2007.[7] Several public beta versions of the SDK were released.[8] These releases were done through software emulation as physical devices did not exist to test the operating system. Both the operating system itself and the SDK were released along with their source code, as free software under the Apache License.[9]


The first public release of Android 1.0 occurred with the release of the T-Mobile G1 (aka HTC Dream) in October 2008.[10] Android 1.0 and 1.1 were not released under specific code names.[11] The code names "Astro Boy" and "Bender" were tagged internally on some of the early pre-1.0 milestone builds and were never used as the actual code names of the 1.0 and 1.1 releases of the OS.[12]


The project manager, Ryan Gibson, conceived using a confectionery-themed naming scheme for public releases, starting with Android 1.5 Cupcake. Google announced in August 2019 they were ending the confectionery theming scheme to use numerical ordering for future versions.[13] The first release under the numerical order format was Android 10, which was released in September 2019.
