Would like to push this up for more insight as well. After trying many things multiple times, Fix Properties, Cleans, imports, existing projects, nothing seemed to correct this error. Tried just about anything that I could find on the internet relating to this issue with no success. Finally I just tried deleting my android.jar file in the build path and that seemed to do the trick. Not sure why that is the case however. Hopefully this post will help someone else in the future.
