I just bumped into the same issue. I was able to fix it by toggling databinding.enabled inside Build.gradle (Module). Below is a little step-by-step guide, that I went through after renaming my company package (com.abc.myapp -> com.xyz.myapp), which got databinding to work as expected:

---

1. Build > Clean Project

2. go to your Build.gradle (Module) and disable databinding:

   android { dataBinding { enabled = false } }

3. File > Sync Project with Gradle Files

4. Build > Rebuild Project (no surprise: you'll get a ton of error messages)

5. Now enable databinding again:

   android { dataBinding { enabled = true } }

6. File > Sync Project with Gradle Files

7. Build > Rebuild Project

Note: Some steps here may be unnecessary, but a little extra sanity checking has never done any harm during project setup, right!?
