It's something wrong with my code?

Warning:The project encoding (windows-1252) does not match the encoding specified in the Gradle build files (UTF-8). This can lead to serious bugs. <a href="http://tools.android.com/knownissues/encoding">More Info...</a><br><a href="open.encodings.settings">Open File Encoding Settings</a>

Click File -> Settings (or click Ctrl + Alt + S) and find File Encodings in your Android Studio. Now you have three options to remove this warning.

1) Change project encoding to match UTF-8 since both Gradle and Android Lint use this (recommended),

2) or change IDE encoding to match other encoding,

3) just simply ignore the warning. If it worked out for you so far, it will continue to work anyway.
