Android Lint error: Class requires API level 3, current is min is 1

Question

When running my Android app I often get a list of errors, wich says

Class requires API level 3 (current min is 1): android.hardware.SensorEventListener

I've searched for the correct answer to this, like Android tools > Clear Link Markers, but this doesn't solve the problem. Every once in a while the list of errors keeps coming back. Is it something in my project settings or are my methods deprecated? I've installed the latest SDK for Android 4.4.

Answer 1

In your manifest file set the sdk like this based on your requirement..

 <uses-sdk
    android:maxSdkVersion="17"
    android:minSdkVersion="8" />

Answer 2

Restart and invalidate cache if this error just started up for no apparent reason
