Android Studio: moving project from windows to Debian 10

Backup:

  1. all files in
    [Workspace] -> [app_name]
    backup jks and iml file
  2. Folder
    [Workspace] -> [app_name] -> [app]
    Exclude folder release and build

DO NOT BACKUP: Hiden folder (.gradle, .idea), gradle

Restore all folder structure into your new Workspace folder in new OS

Before you open your project in new OS, adjust your files depend on your your SDK, SDK version and Buildtool version, edit file

[workspace] -> [app_name]
local.properties
    sdk.dir=/home/[username]/Android/Sdk

[workspace] -> [app_name] -> [app]
build.gradle
    compileSdkVersion 31
    buildToolsVersion "31.0.0"
    ...
        targetSdkVersion 31

You can safely open your project, Android Studio will make same adjustment, download some necessary library and reconfigure your project.

Tested on

  • Debian Buster
  • Android Studio 4.2.x
  • moving project from windows to Debian
