C:\Users\hp\Documents\myTest\res\values-v11\styles.xml:7: error: Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'Theme.AppCompat.Light'.

C:\Users\hp\Documents\myTest\res\values-v14\styles.xml:8: error: Error retrieving parent for item: No resource found that matches the given name 'Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar'.

Theme.AppCompat.** is in android support library. You can easily get rid of this by setting 

<application
     ...
     android:theme="@android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault">

In AndroidManifest.xml
