Problems with Android and Eclipse when Run on Device

Question

I duplicate my project on eclipse and renamed it but, when I run the new project the first one is replaced by the old one and vice-versa.

The Projects have differents names.

You must have different package name – Trikaldarshiii Sep 12 '13 at 15:38 — Trikaldarshiii, Sep 12 '13 at 15:38

Renamed? You mean you changed the package in the manifest?

Have you changed package names? (package property in your AndroidManifest.xml and package names in source code as well)

That's correct. Just make sure that `package` attribute is different for both copies of the project. As far as I know, changing `package` name will force you to refactor the packages in source code as well. – ssantos Sep 12 '13 at 16:19

For creating a copy of project you must use different PackageName only changing project name is not sufficient

Do the following

you just copy your project into new one (ctrl+c & ctrl+v).
you change package-name in your manifest
After that you must rename your main package with refactor. Don't forget to select.
Just change your application name in manifest
application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="new name"

Hope I didn't forget something and it helps you
