Step 1: To rename package name in Android studio open your project in Android mode first as shown in the below image. Step 2: Now click on the setting gear icon and deselect Compact Middle Packages. Step 3: Now the packages folder is broken into parts as shown in the below image.
Right-click the package you want to move, and select " Refactor/Rename..." -- NOT " Move "! Modify the name of the package to reflect its desired new position in the package hierarchy, e.g. Prepend any new parent package name(s) if you are moving the package to downwards in the package hierarchy.
This is a bug in the Eclipse Android tools.
To fix: Right click on the project, go to Android tools -> Rename application package.
And also check AndroidManifest.xml
if it updated correctly. In my case it didn't, and that should solve this problem.
As usual, by pressing F2
on the package name, you can rename or change the package name, and also by right-clicking and then select Rename
option, you can change or rename the package name.
When you press F2, it will show you the dialog box as:
In this dialog, don't forget to check the "Update references" checkbox because by making "check" to this check-box, it will make changes to all the references of the package which are referred by other components of project.
None of these worked for me, they all introduced errors.
The following worked for me:
One extremely important notice:
NEVER use a direct package names as in something similar to passing a string value containing the package name. Use the method getPackageName(). This will make the renaming dynamic. Do whatever to reach the method getPackageName().
In Eclipse Juno, the correct way of renaming is:
Right click on your project name and select Android Tools , then click
Rename Application Package, then change your project name click OK and
click Finish.
To change the app name when in Android, go to res/values/strings.xml
and change app_name
to what you want.
Just right click on the project name and select Android tools and click Rename Application Package name and rename it. It's only for Android projects.
