title: Use Android Studio With Maven ONLY
body: <p>All I want to do is use Android Studio without converting to Gradle. I <strong>MUST</strong> use maven (Client Requirements). <strong>How can I accomplish this?</strong> </p>
  
  <p>I was able to get this working by opening up the pom.xml file but every time I close the project and reopen it, gradle is forced on me and I can't run anymore. Project layout also changes on me.</p>
  
  <p>When I open up the project the first time using pom.xml, the module looks like this:

  <p>When I close the project and open up a 2nd time, the module looks like this:
  (With the inability to run because Run/Debug says 'No Android facet found in the module')

  <p>I can get back to my original state by doing File->Open and reselecting the pom.xml file. I make sure to hit no on the first pop-up:</p>

  <p>I blanked out my build.gradle file like so:</p>
  
  <pre><code>buildscript {
      repositories {
      }
      dependencies {
      }
  }
  repositories {
  }
  dependencies {
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Extra Notes:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Exported from eclipse ADT for a build.gradle file. Android Studio was missing all External Libraries that were Maven
  Dependencies.</li>
  <li>Started my own build.gradle file to indlude dependencies but I don't want to maintain two separate files (build.gradle &amp; pom.xml).</li>
  <li>Deleted the build.gradle file and anything gradle related in the android project folder before reopening but that did nothing.</li>
  <li>Developing on Linux OS Android Studio version 0.4.2</li>
