Android studio Gradle icon error, Manifest Merger

It seems to be the fault of the mainfest Merger tool for gradle.

Solved it by adding to my manifest tag xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

Then added tools:replace="android:icon,android:theme" to the application tag

This tells the merger to use my manifest icon and theme and not of other libraries
