Answer 1

Flavor code is only acknowledged when you are using that "Build Variant" from the left menu, otherwise it will be red.

You have 2 options.

1) Use Flavor Check to see which flavor you are in (inside an If Check) to avoid touching bad code that shouldn't run in other flavors.

or

2) Create your respective flavor folders for the files that are only used in that flavor. If any other file references tttt then it also becomes a flavor specific implementation. You will need to make an instance of the MainActivity for all flavors, but only reference tttt in the myFlavor/MainActivity that lives under the correct flavor.

Hope that helps, remember the build variant is in lower left menu, you can switch your flavor variant for testing.
