I have an Android APK I made in Unity I am trying to debug in Android Studio. I am not sure what is going wrong but I seem to have hit a wall. I can build the APK from Unity and install it to an Android virtual device or my phone. This works fine.
However, if I try opening the APK in Android Studio through the Profile or Debug APK option, it opens up a new project that looks like this:
https://ibb.co/njhcHR1
To fix the library error, I then select the folder that contains them. Then I go File > Invalidate Caches / Restart.
This takes me to this error if I try to click the green arrow:
https://ibb.co/DC7ppJG
https://ibb.co/1zmGd4z
Which I cannot solve. I have searched online and read people saying it's from not being synced to Gradle, but when I open APKs like this there is no Gradle included. I do have Gradle installed. I have no idea what the problem is. As you can see in Project Settings the SDK is selected.
Any thoughts or ideas?

Hi folks!
I'm very new to android studio and android programming. I'm still mostly setting up the workspace and reading some texts to help me get started.
In the process of upgrading the packages in SDK manager a number of items became flagged as 'corrupt' (or words to that effect).
I figured the best response would be to select them via the check box then 'delete packages' - which I did. I was hoping that the SDK manager would then automatically recognize that they were missing and reload new, clean versions... But I was wrong!
They are missing completely and I'm not even sure what they were nor how many. I'm sure one was "ARM EABI..." but I don't know much else...
How do I get back the complete original listing from which I can install afresh what was missing?
Thanks for looking and any help you can give! :good:
Google "android sdk manager adding sdk packages" and the first link should help you out. Apparently, you are missing 3rd party packages and the links you provided before are no longer valid.
Upon trying to install the new Android Studio, I got this error. I can not find anything related to Android on my control panel. I have previously installed the apks, but I believe I have completely removed them. Anyone know how to fix this?
Picture of error is in the attachments.
Howdy folks,
Usually fairly computer-literate. Thought I'd do the "native" thing and develop for android using Linux. Windows 7-10 daily driver but i thought why not do the nerdy thing and use linux. that's the guts of android after all.
Anyhoo. If anyone's downloaded the linux version of android studio you'd notice it puts you right away into the android sdk manager to complete the installation and you have to choose to install platform-tools and the api. ok. done.
How now do I start this program?? There is not a corresponding .android bash script to run for the sdk itself, it's just the manager!! How do you start the IDE??
Please, many sorries that i am retarded. ... but it's baffling how there's no instructions from google... they just point you to the sdk manager and explain nothing else. They didn't even sign their ssl certs so you can't use sdk manager unless you dive into its settings to force http. wtf?? is google dropping the ball on this? how do you deploy something so terribly? and what's with the unsigned certs? did the intern fall asleep at his job??

So, I guess you have downloaded the studio from
Code:
developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html?pkg=studio
After extracting you can launch IDE by going to android-studio/bin/ and writing ./studio.sh
And this information is straight from their page.
thanks... i ... i saw later...
when you click on first link on thier page it takes you to download ide package manager... it implies you already have ide, so the actual program isnt available to dl.
but if you scroll that same silly page, you find true complete ide download.
please pardon my extreme ignorance. hope you got some lulz.

I have tried different solutions but none of them seem to work for me. I have installed the latest AS on my Windows 7. Everything downloaded fine(I'm not behind any proxy) However, when I try to create a new Project, after I set the name,Activity name(which I live as default) and finish the settings, a message pops up saying "Gradle Build"; It keeps building but I don't know what it's doing.
I've tried the following steps to fix it: -Deleted .gradle so that it creates a fresh one as the original might be corrupted -Downloaded gradle manually and pointed AS to this -Downloaded gradle zip manually and put it in .gradle>wrapper>dists>2.14.1>numbers>zip file here
Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks
I have upgraded from Android Studio 1.0 to 3.3.
I was building and rebuilding and flashing my software to phone very effectively on 1.0 and now after upgrade after nearly two days of work I can still not get the basics (build Android app as far as java compile errors) working.
I appologise if my questions are not perfectly formed, I am beginning to get really tired and confused and I would be so grateful of a little latitude and some help to get back to where I was.
When I installed 3.3 it recommended that it uninstall the current version, which I agreed to it doing. So fresh start I guess.
Amongst other things...
After the install, my app would not build and kept asking for a newer version of gradle. I set in settings local gradle 4.10.1 and I set the gradle plug-in to 3.3.0 in the top level gradle file. I tried setting "use default gradle wrapper" and then setting these versions in "project structure" but they kept changing back again, so I used the other method just described. It then complained it couldn't find that plugin so I added repositories google and jcentre to that file. It then began to build but complained that a version of build tools could not be installed because the license had not been accepted. I clicked on the link provided and accepted the license, but the build tools would not install, no reason.
I could not find "sdk manager" menu item anywhere in AS menu structure. Don't know why. It used to be there in 1.0.
Thinking it's a brand new install as it said I go to OS start->all programs->Android sdk tools and launch sdk manager as administrator. I install the offending build tools version accepting the license.
I rebuild, same error.
I look where that sdk manager exe was and there is no license folder in that folder nor the one above.
I root around the folder structure and find a different sdk manager under prog files (x86)\Android\android-studio\sdk and a license folder in the folder above. I run that sdk manager and install the offending build tools version accepting the license.
I go back to Android studio and click rebuild project, nothing I mean literally nothing happens, clean, nothing, make, nothing! Nothing at all! I close AS and restart it (as administrator), exact same issue. This new issue really gives me very little to work with as there is no feed back at all. I'm beginning to regret upgrading AS as it is holding me back from coding now.
I have two questions:
1) Can anyone see a possible way out of my immediate problem and how to get my project at least attempting to build again and get at least as far as just compile errors.
2) Am I right in thinking that current version of AS is far from an out of the box experience even for the common default activities (build Android java project) and has a variety of unexpected anomolies OR a lot of settings whose defaults may very likely not be useful and need manually resetting? IF SO... Is it therefore recommended I do a couple of days reading maybe about the structure of "specifically" AS and it's dependant components and how to set them up and use them effectively? IF SO... what documents would one recommend, so as to make the most efficient use of time.
Apologies if this is not well formed. Hoping for some help.
Thanks.

I have AS installed on linux so I can't help you much with windows. I can tell you that AS 3.3 works great and is much better than 1.0. Mind you, I've been using AS since it was in beta.
Try to create a new project. If the new project is created and builds without error, then you know AS is working correctly.
If the above doesn't work then I recommend you do a full uninstall of AS and then do a fresh install as follows.
Follow this AS uninstall guide:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/39953746
Then follow this guide to install AS:
https://developer.android.com/studio/install
Then try a new project as mentioned above. If the new project goes well, then you can proceed to import the project you was working on originally.
Thank you. I think there are possibly issues with this upgrade path. It was supposed to have uninstalled completely (said it was doing so) and installed 3.3 afresh. However when you open "AS" itself it opens with the existing project in place. It is not until you close that project that it suddenly closes AS, reopens AS and enters the first startup wizard to complete the remainder of the installation / configuration.
I think I am a step further on since then.
Thanks
