I have installed Android studio 3.1.2 which is packaged without Android SDK. When I start Android studio, it tries to download SDK which is greater than 1GB. My connection speed is poor and the last three days, I repeatedly attempted to install the SDK but failed mainly because the connection speed is low and Android studio is poor at downloading files. If I could download the needed files myself, using IDM I could have installed the SDK in 4-5 hours.
Is there a way to offline install Android SDK? When Android studio downloads files, where does it put them temporarily? Can I download SDK files and put them in that temporary folder? Why is Google not providing offline install option? I would appreciate any suggestion.
Note:
Question not answered still. Open for more discussion.
You can download SDK and Android Studio separately. Once download is successful:
Go to Settings -> Android SDK -> Edit -> Choose path of downloaded directory -> Next -> Ok

I've been trying to configure Android Studio 3.4.2 offline by downloading the installer and the SDK and such. There's a tutorial on the site that says Offline dependencies, but upon doing what the site says, Android studio still cannot sync with Gradle properly.
I have a laptop that I synced online and is now working even on offline mode. I was wondering if I can use the downloaded files from my laptop and pass it on different computers. Would that be possible though?

I couldn't install the SDKs and System Images for different Android versions in Android Studio. The package is downloaded but fails to install. With the new update of Android Studio 2.3 (or from previous versions, not sure) Google has made it mandatory to use SDK Manager provided in the IDE, there is no 'Launch Standalone SDK Manager' anymore in the IDE. I have found an old solution to this problem when there used to be a separate 'SDK Manager.exe' file in the folder 'sdk' as shown below:
But I did a fresh installation of Android Studio 2.3 and there is no such file now:
On installing a new package or system image from SDK Manager in Android Studio I am getting following error every time:
Please help me as I am in the middle of development of a project which needs to be completed. Thanks in advance! :)
You can download the failed file (https:dl.google.com/....google_m2repository_gms... .zip) directly (using some download manager if you experience network instability) and then unzip it and copy the content to <android-sdk>/extras/google/m2repository/com/google/android/gms. In fact, you can download any part of android sdk manually and put it in the place it should be.
I've dowloaded and installed Android Studio (in Ubuntu). During the setup, it started downloading many other dependencies. My internet is slow and Android Studio cannot download 2 large packages ( Android Support Repository & Android SDK Tools 25.2.2 ), downloads fail after a while.
I can manually download these packages from web browser, but how do I install them?
Links: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/android_m2repository_r39.zip & https://dl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r25.2.2-linux.zip
First, you need to find your sdk location, such as "/opt/android-sdk-linux" in my computer. The repository should be moved into extras and Android SDK Tools 25.2.2 should be moved into buil-tools directory, hope it will work for you.
I am using Appcelerator Studio on Mac OS X

Titanium SDK version 5.1.2.G
I have been trying to install the Android SDK's without success. I am using the Install from the software under Preferences -> Platforms -> Android
If I browse to the directory with the SDKs I get the error message:
[Android SDK Home] No Android SD...nder the specified SDK location
All the Android SDKs have been loaded by Android Studio so I know they are there.
If I try to install the SDKS through Studio it goes through the motions, downloads and unpacks the files etc and then gives me a completed screen but no sdks is actually saved.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Studio without success
any help is appreciated
Just give path of your android-sdk main directory only. If you are doing correctly then check in that folder having all required folders or not. I attached screenshot for what folders should be there.
If any of folder missing in mentioned image, it means, your SDK not properly installed. And you need to install it again. you can download SDK from here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html#Other
Follow the instruction given in above link and again set path as you were doing before. And install all required SDK using install SDK given in Preferences -> Platforms -> Android.
I need to install Android Studio in a third world country with very poor internet connection. Is it possible to download everything I need into a USB stick in the US and then go there and install?
Yes it possible but you would need to download both Android Studio and the SDK. You can do so from this page http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing/index.html.
Downloading Android Studio is simple enough. Copy it to USB and then transfer it to your machine and install. You will need an internet connection to update Android Studio when updates come out though.
The SDK is a bit different. Download the SDK tools from the above link. Once that is download save the SDK tools to a USB. The SDK can be saved anywhere and transferred to another machine easily as Android Studio points to an external location for the SDK. In this case, once the SDK is downloaded, update the SDK and get the API's and emulator images that you want by calling either of the two below:
On Windows, double-click the SDK Manager.exe file at the root of the
Android SDK directory.
On Mac or Linux, open a terminal and navigate to the tools/ directory
in the Android SDK, then execute android sdk.
Then you can transfer the SDK tools folder (which should now have grown in size) wherever you want on your machine and just point Android Studio to it by following the below steps:
File -> project Structure into Project Structure
SDK Location (in the left hand panel)
Select Android SDK location (for versions of Android Studio before 1.0.1, press +, add another sdk)
