Gradle build fail with Twitter Fabric

Unity Engine
1

I am running into CommandInvokationFailure: Gradle build failed.

stderr[ C:\Users\User\Documents\Unity Games\BoilerplateServices\Temp\gradleOut\src\main\AndroidManifest.xml:9:

Error: Avoid hardcoding the debug mode; leaving it out allows debug and release builds to automatically assign one [HardcodedDebugMode]

android:name=“io.fabric.unity.android.FabricApplication” android:icon=“@drawable/app_icon” android:label=" @anon_76954444 /app_name" android:theme=" @ /UnityThemeSelector" android:debuggable=“false” android:isGame=“true” android:banner=“@drawable/app_banner”>

I went into the file and removed this line of code, built again and the line auto repopulates. How can I fix this?
I can provide any additional information

SOLVED
SOLUTION AS OF JULY 14TH 2017

Remove ALL of the fabric plugin. Replace with twitterKit : Home · twitter-archive/twitter-kit-unity Wiki · GitHub

Follow the instructions and you are good to go. I was able to gradle build without error.

are you building a development build ? also, this may not be the real cause of failure. please attach the full error message you’re getting from gradle.

The same happens to me.

CommandInvokationFailure: Gradle build failed. /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_131.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -classpath “/Applications/Unity/PlaybackEngines/AndroidPlayer/Tools/gradle/lib/gradle-launcher-2.14.jar” org.gradle.launcher.GradleMain “assembleRelease”

stderr[ …/Temp/gradleOut/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml:6: Error: Avoid hardcoding the debug mode; leaving it out allows debug and release builds to automatically assign one [HardcodedDebugMode]

Explanation for issues of type “HardcodedDebugMode”: It’s best to leave out the android:debuggable attribute from the manifest. If you do, then the tools will automatically insert android:debuggable=true when building an APK to debug on an emulator or device. And when you perform a release build, such as Exporting APK, it will automatically set it to false.

If on the other hand you specify a specific value in the manifest file, then the tools will always use it. This can lead to accidentally publishing your app with debug information.

This is indeed the rest of the error. I’ve been ale to gradle build more than a few times, when I add in Fabric(twitter) I receive this error. Any idea on how to correct?

No I am not exporting to a development build.

Yea, there are known bugs within Fabrics SDK for Unity. It and Twitterkit are now separate. Stay away from Fabric.
