ANDROID STUDIO 3.0
I am new to Android Studio.
Now, when I start a new project it successfully runs. But on the top, right below the tabs it shows an error.
Gradle project sync failed. Basic functionality will not work properly
Then I figure out the solution to by installing the required component from the message view:
Clicked on "Install Build Tools 26.0.2 and sync project
After trying to install the component, it shows me an error:
An error occurred during installation: Failed to move away or delete existing file
PLEASE HELP.
THANKS!
Why don't you just delete the folder below?
C:\Users\???\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\build-tools\26.0.2
It seems that your android studio doesn't have permission to delete.
Edited:
Even though this is not a your original question, but...
If you doesn't have permission to access the folder, try this:
Goto parent folder of the folder you want to delete.
Right click the folder and select properties
Click secutity tab - Click advanced - Click owner
Click edit - Select user (your name) - Click apply
And you can delete the folder.
Run Android Studio as Administrator. Although I have local admin rights, updates failed and have since day 1, even on older versions too. On older versions running as admin didn't fix the problem, I did manual updates. Today I discovered that with 3.0 running as admin works great.
If you have a desktop icon, go to properties>Shortcut>Advanced and check "Run as Administrator". Now every time you run from the shortcut, you will run as administrator. At least it fixed my problems.

I cloned a project from git and built it in android studio without any problems but I don't have (Run app) in android studio and also when I run run-android I get this error:
Failed to launch emulator. Reason: No emulators found as an output of `emulator -list-avds`
but I can run my emulator from AVD manager!
I did every solutions that I found with search but they didn't work for me
For me, the reason was one of the following:
Gradle sync was in progress
Gradle sync had failed
For the second case, go to your top-level or app build file and click Try again or Sync button on the notification shown at the top of the file.
You could also just try to sync the IDE with Gradle with either of these buttons:
I faced a similar error. I was trying to import a built apk to profile it and ran into the scenario where the run button was grayed out.
Ultimately what worked. I went to File > Manage IDE Settings > Restore default settings.. and redid the android studio setup.
Note: Doing this will RESET the entire Android Studio and redownload everything.
1- Give the SDK path (to find the emulator path), Usually in User\YourUsername\AppData (is hidden by default)\Local\Android\Sdk. in File->Project structure, SDK location. Also the Java\Jdk path for (JDKs) and the path "...java\util\concurrent" exist
Do not reset the IDE Settings (because you need to reinstall a lot of things and it will not solve)
2 possibility - from File->Setting->Tools->Emulator to check the Launch in a tool window
3 possibility -
Problem : No AVD manager in Android Studio, and no "Android" option in the "tool" menu.
Tried solutions :
re-install (twice)
changed installation partition to the one containing the Android SDK directory
went to "configure" - "project default" - "project structure", and checked my Adroid SDK directory (it's there)
open a new project - there is still no android menu, and no avd manager.
instead of "Android" in the "tool" menu, i have "Kotlin"
i tried to use terminal, and console, to launch android avd : not opening
i tried to search for Android, or AVD, in the search option. they show, but when i click, nothing happens
i saw people saying i needed 5gig storage to install Android Studio. but when i install mine, it only offers one option, and total is 2gig. but i have way more than enough storage space on both my partition for 5gig or 50gig
i tried to customize toolbar, but Android options are just not there to be made visible
i have read all the posts here regarding this issue, and have not found a solution that works.
It must be a simple step that i am missing, but which one ???

Which Android Studio are you trying to use?
I am using 3.0 and I see both "Android" and "Kotlin" submenus under "Tools".
I am using macOS 10.12.6
I faced the same issue, but it's resolved now.
Follow the steps mentioned below:
Run the unistaller from Control Panel if you are using windows.
After you have uninstalled Android Studio, it is recommended that you restart the machine before proceeding with the steps below.
To remove and delete the remains of Android studio setting files;
Go to C:\Users[YOUR WINDOWS USERNAME]
Delete .android, .AndroidStudio and any versions of this directory with versions on the end, .gradle and .m2.
Then, go to C:\Users[YOUR WINDOWS USERNAME]\Roaming and delete the JetBrains directory. (If any, else ignore).
Finally, go to C:\Program Files and delete the Android directory.
Delete any remains of the SDK, in Windows Explorer, C:\Users[YOUR WINDOWS USERNAME]\AppData\Local and delete the Android directory.
(Optional) Delete all previous projects AndroidStudioProjects directory.
Instal Android Studio
Wait till after sometime a prompt will appear to standard or custom installation
Select Custom Installation and make sure Android virtual device is selected there and continue install.
Once everything is done.. Create a project with basic actvity and then wait.. It atleast take 5- 10 minutes to load... At the end you will see Gradle build finished in the console.
You may get errors in console. There will be link to fix all these errors at the console only if there are any errors.. click on those links and those will get automatically fixed. Do this till the console errors goes away.
Then view Tools menu hopefully you should find ANDROID menu option there :)
I'm very new to Android development and have never used Android Studio before. I set it up, got my app working on my phone and left it alone for a few weeks. Upon returning, I could not find the Android Studio executable on my computer, so I reinstalled it and restarted on the same project.
Not sure if this has to do with the AVD Manager button being grayed out. Things I have tried:
Making sure my SDK path is correct
Running Android Studio as administrator
Launching the AVD Manager executable from windows. I can create a virtual device but doesn't affect disabled AVD Manager button when restarting Android Studio.
Installing Intel X86 Atom System Image and Google APIs in SDK Manager, under API 24.Everything under API 25 is installed.
Any help is appreciated. Thank you!
This generally happens when Android Studio is not able identify the android sdk installation in the machine. This could happen if Android Studio is launched in non-Administrator mode.
Just close and relaunch Android Studio in administrator mode. You will see a saying "android framework is identified" Click on the configure link on that notification. The AndroidStudio will start configuring the android sdk. After some time the buttons would be visible and enabled.
If you tried running the Android Studio in administrator mode and it still do not work for you try the following way.
Delete the .idea folder in the project
Re open the project from going to File->Open Recent->
Then you will be asked to convert the project
Click convert
For anyone seeing this problem following the React Native tutorial make sure to click the "Configure" button in the Event Log next to the log text that reads "Frameworks detected: Android framework is detected in the project"
This action seems to be what configures the project to be an Android project.
I'v solved this issue by updating gradle.
It is simple
The only thing that worked for me was that I clicked in Androidstudio in the top right on SDK Managar.
And there under android sdk it was so that there was no path entered. and it was also so that NO Check box was checked below.
So I had to first click in the top right on Edit thereby was written to me the path pure.
After that I had to select a chack box below it no matter whiche and sometimes it must then just install something. When it has finished installing click OK. It may be that you then have to close and open android studio again.
I was having this issue on a new machine running MacOS High Sierra.
After installing Android Studio and the most recent SDK/
SDK Tools, I was unable to create any AVD from Android Studio (button greyed out, no option under Tools) or run the AVD Manager any other way.
I tried the same things the OP had done, then noticed I was getting the following error: Gradle sync failed: Failed to find Build Tools revision 26.0.2
From the Event Log I followed a link to download the Build tools and now it works!
If you are working on Flutter, Follow the steps:
Open Settings in Android Studio (CTRLALTS)
Search Flutter
Check may path of Flutter SDK is not available.
Set the path and press OK.
Done! Thank you
I tried the answers here, but the only solution for me was to restart my machine and it fixed itself. It happened after upgrading AS (from 4.0.2 to 4.2.2)
in android studio or intellij program:
goto tools > android > SDK manager
click on Edit (android SDK location)
click next and next
close dialog
its ok.
I followed googles instructions and exported a test project from Eclipse by using the
Export -> Generate Gradle build files
opened up Android Studio and imported. After getting my support libraries working properly my project would compile with out any errors. My problem started when I tried to run the app on my device. When ever I try to run the app it directs me to use an AVD, never giving me the option to select my device. I obliged, created a new AVD but to no avail only to get build failed error. (I'll add the exact error when I can) NOTE: I can see my device is connected by clicking on "(6)Android" and the bottom left of the screen. I do see all logcat messages in verbose. I added android:debuggable="true"to my manifest but still nothing.
Confused I created a new project directly from Android Studio, hit run and bingo,...it gave me the option to use my device to run it or an AVD. Selecting either results in a successful launch of the dummy "Hello World" app. I think it may have something to do with build variants as my imported project doesn't specify "debug" vs "release" while the Android Studio generated project does.
Anyone else experiencing this?
I found the answer to my own question. Bit of a double whammy. Before installing Android Studio I updated my SDK via Eclipse (as recommended/required by google). Turns out by doing so a few items in my current projects got disconnected. ie. build paths, dependencies, ect. (you now have to place external Jar's in the src/libs folder)
Here is what I did to fix it.
In Eclipse, Preferences -> Java Built Path ->"Order and Export" tab. Make sure items are selected
If you have external Jars, manually copy and paste the jar in the libs folder of the project. (I did this in my Finder)
confirm the project launches via Eclipse
If it runs, export the project again by "Generate Gradle build files" (confirm overwriting existing files, if any)
5.Open Android Studio and re-import the project. Again, confirming overwriting of any existing files.
6.Next to the run bottom at the top of the screen click on the drop down next to your project name. Click "Edit Configurations..." and select "show chooser dialog" if not already selected.
clicked ok to exit,..and PRESTO!!! I finally have a successful project migration.
Hope this saves someone else time.
Cheers!
Yeah i have experienced similar stuff on Eclipse, its quite buggy. Since Android studio is based on it i would expect everything. Still the best solution to everything is to reload project, refresh project or restart IDE.
I am an experienced programmer but new to Android, hence using Eclipse for the first time.
Unfortunately I cannot get my first project off the ground. I get as far trying to create the project when the following sequence happens.
A screen arrives titled 'Install Dependencies' telling me that the required version is 8 and the installed version is 'Not installed'
I click on the Install/Upgrade button and something must happen because Android SDK Manager pops up and I get a whole series of 'Fetching:' messages.
The next screen asks me to Choose Package to Install and the only option is Android Support Library, revision 10. This doesn't bother me as I presume 10 is better than 8 so I hit the Install button.
This is where it all goes wrong as I get a red message saying:-
File not found:C:\Program Files (X86)\Android\android-sdk\temp\support_r10.zip (Acces is denied).
Sure enough, when I check this folder, it is empty.
Now, something must have happened as as SDK Manager did a whole lot of fetching and must have put these files somewhere.
I am quite happy to find them and put them in the correct folder but the question is
What is the name of the files that I am looking for?
Run SDK Manager as administrator and then install Android Support Library from Extras
Download the sdk manager seperately and install files from there. put it in a place which is accessible to you and then point your eclipse android directory to it. tools>options>android sdk
Run eclipse as Administrator. This is the solution.
Try running your application (Eclipse) in Admin Mode.
Right click on the Eclipse app, and choose "Run as Administrator"
This will fix your problem.
properties >java build path >click library tab > add jars > add jars from the support library.
