I am completely new to Android App Development and I'm trying to learn to develop apps through IntelliJ IDEA. When I try to open the activity_main.xml file, I get a prompt saying, "Design editor is unavailable until after a successful project sync", and when I try to sync, I get this error. This happens even after installing all Android versions (including 32) through Android SDK settings.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Here is the image of the error when trying to sync gradle
The problem that Intellij IDEA doesn't have Android SDK configured. In particular - Android SDK 32. Even if you see that it is installed in the SDK Manager.
I don't remember when we started to see this issue. But it's easy to fix. It's is one time exercise for new installations only.
How to fix this:
Install Android SDK 32 (or any other required) in SDK Manager what you can find in IDEA preferences.
Install JDK 11. Probably this is why IDEA has not configured Android SDKs automatically. The IDEA itself already runs on JDK 17 or higher.
Open your Android project (or just any project in IDEA), go to Project Settings -> SDKs. Press "+" menu button on top and select "Add Android SDK...". Select your root "android sdk" folder. Then choose SDK you needed.
Press OK. Press "Sync Gradle Project" again.
Have Fun.
BTW, after years on Android apps development I would prefer Intellij IDEA over too buggy Android Studio. You on the right way ;)
So coming straight to the issue on hand, I have installed the Android studio lastest version (3.6.3). But whenever I try to build a project and run it on Emulator it shows me an error that "I have not accepted the SDK licenses". It is not the only error that appears. I have attached a screenshot that you can see to have an idea of what the error actually is:
I tried to use the cmd method that accepts all the licenses but it is not working and cmd gives error "The system cannot find the path specified"
It is possible that I am accessing it wrong I am a complete cmd illiterate. After checking, there is no \tools\bin inside SDK folder
Also, I have tried reinstalling.
Kindly help me out. All my work is stuck because of this error.
There is usually a link to the missing tools in the error console.
If not go in the menu to Tools / SDK
Then to the tab SDK Tools
Check the sdk Build Tools as it says the gradle error message
Check the missing platform in the SDK platforms tab that says the error message too
And then you'll be prompted to accept the licenses. Be careful because it's a radio button and is a little bit hiden.
If it fails after doing this watch in the console if there is a link to install the missing tools or other clues of other things missing apart from the build tools and the SDK platform.
The issue is resolved. How I resolved it?
It was pretty easy though I just Installed three (3) more SDK-Platforms i-e Android 9.0, Android 8.1 and Android 8.0 by going to
tools\sdkmanager\sdk-platforms in Android Studio IDE
I don't know why it fixed it but it did.
I occured this issue when running ionic run android cmd
Any help ?
Do you have Android SDK? If not, download and install it.
https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html#downloads
Just install it with Android Studio, later you can delete Studio and just leave the SDK (or you can go and find just the SDK but this is easier)
If you already have SDK, go to YourDrive:\Path where you installed\Android\sdk and open SDK Manager
You'll see bunch of Android versions, select android 6.0 (API 23), and download/install through SDK manager. It's not bad to install all versions from let's say API 15 to latest.
When building you will need to have Java path set up.
Refer here if you get something like Java Home not found Error in setting JAVA_HOME
I have a problem with Android 0.4.2 Studio, when creating a new application, it tells me there is a problem with the rendering and shows me the following problem:
Renderering Problems
No Android SDK found. Please configure an Android SDK.
My setup SDK and JDK is this: Android SDK location: C:\adt-bundle-windows\sdk, I put the path I use in Eclipse SDK, or there may be the problem, if someone has happened and what has been fixed, I'd like to give me the solution, thank you very much.
I just encountered and solve a similar problem.
First you should check the directory like other threads described. Then you can check whether the Build tool version matches your SDK version.
(e.g. for my project, in build.gradle file, you have:)
android {
compileSdkVersion 21
buildToolsVersion "21.1.1" }
and then open you SDK manager, make sure you have the same version of sdk(21.1.1) installed in the selected directoriy:
If not, install it and restart Android Studio. It works for me.
I've also seen other guys saying run Android Studio as administrator would also help:
https://teamtreehouse.com/forum/i-am-getting-this-warning-message-rendering-problems-no-android-sdk-found-please-configure-an-android-sdk
I got the same "No Android SDK Found" error message... plus no rendering for Design window, no little cellphone screen.
My SDK path was correct, pointing to where the (downloaded during setup) SDK lives.
During Setup of the SDK Mgr, I didn't download the latest "preview edition (version 20)"...(I thought it better to use the next most recent version (19)) Later I found, there was no dropdown choice in the AVD Manager to pick Version 19, only the default value of the preview, 20.
I thought "Maybe the rendering was based on a version that wasn't present yet." So, I downloaded all the "preview edition's (version 20)" SDK Platform (2) and system images (4)...
Once download/install completed,
RESTARTED Android Studio and Viola! success... error message gone, rendering ok.
From the File menu, choose Project Structure (if you're running 0.4.4 there's a bug and the menu item doesn't have a title, but it still works), and choose the Android SDK item. You should see something like this where you can set up your JDK and SDK.
After setting it, quit Android Studio and relaunch it for good measure.
i have just discovered, android studio 3.0.1 has no sdk during the installation. because during the installation, it doesn't give sdk as part of install able unlike in recent versions of android studio.
Don't worry just change the
build.gradle
ext.kotlin_version = '1.2.41'
to previous version.
It worked for me hope it works for you too.
Happy coding.
According to the Android Studio download page, the SDK comes bundled with Android Studio. It has its own copy when you install Android Studio.
ADT is a plugin for Eclipse. Try reading through that webpage to see if there is something that got missed when installing.
Here is the wording from the site, regarding ADT:
Similar to Eclipse with the ADT Plugin, Android Studio provides integrated Android developer tools for development and debugging.
I wanted to share a part of the issue I had because it is the first google result.
I installed Android Studio, when I tried to install my first SDK from the SDK Management windows I got the error that I didn't have any SDK installed.
I tried to look on the internet to manually download the .zip,manualy create the folder, no luck what so ever.
When I tried to run the Android Studio as an administrator it detected I didn't have any SDK and prompt me right away at startup to download a SDK.
Do following steps
a) Change minSdkVersion and sync gradle
b) Revert back your minSdkVersion and sync gradle again
It will be resolved.
These days, Android Studio setup do not provide SDK as the part of original package.
In the context of windows, when you start Android Studio 1.3.1, you see the error message saying no sdk found. You just have to proceed and provide the path where sdk can be downloaded. And you are done.
Here is the solution just copy your SDK Manager.exe file at the root folder of your android studio's installation, Sync your project and cheers... here is the link for details.
running Android Studio on Windows 7 fails, no Android SDK found
Try make New Project, and then choose same android version that you've installed sdk verions on "Target Android Device" dialog.
In my case, error message gone.
I had the same problem, Android Studio just could not identify the android-sdk folder. All I did was to uninstall and reinstall android studio, and this time it actually identified the folder. Hope it also works out for you.
Download android sdk through this sdk manager https://dl.google.com/android/repository/tools_r25.2.3-macosx.zip
(note this link is for mac)
open android studio, click next, open where it ask to add path where u downloaded sdk..... add it... click next, it will downloaad updates..... and it done
Right now, the last version of Android Studio bundled (Windows IDE bundle with SDK (64-bit)) with Android SDK is version 2.3.3:
https://developer.android.com/studio/archive.html#android-studio-2-3-3
which size is about 2GB.
You can use it and then upgrade to the latest version of Android Studio.
I am on Mac Os. In my case, my host file was black. I added following entries (these entries should be there by default, but they weren't).
##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1 localhost
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1 localhost
After re-running android studio, it prompted the sdk download.
I fixed this bug changing the proxy configuration:
No proxy → Auto-detect proxy settings
I know there are some sort-of duplicates of this, but none of the answers have been able to help me so far.
When I open a project, I get the following error:
[2014-01-07 14:18:00 - Permissions] Unable to resolve target 'android-17'
Does anybody know what may be the problem here?
You can right click on your project -> properties -> Android -> Select the Target android version you want to compile and Apply !
If you don't have any target versions to compile, you probably need to download them on your SDK Manager
Open your Android SDK Manager, and make sure your SDK API is installed
You might have several Android SDK folders installed, like me; check that your workspace build path is the one your machine defaults to.
You are probably trying to use a library that was built using API 17 and you do not have it installed. If you are using API 18+ you will be fine.
goto your sdk manager.exe open it, check the API 17 checkbox and click the 'install x packages' button, this will download and install these packages, if the project still shows error go in your project build path and fix the library path error if any
Sometimes the error can appear when you are working with source code built with an ADT that is a higher version than what you are currently using. It could be worth it to see if ADT has a later version than you are working. Sometimes ADT (especially with Eclipse. Link to get new here: https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html) cannot find updates when asked to find them so you may need to install the newest version and overwrite/delete the old version
The target API in project.properties may be different from the one you have installed. This may happen if you reinstall Eclipse, for example. Open the Android SDK Manager and check to see which version of the API you have installed. Then go to project.properties and set "target=android-xx" when "xx" is your API version.
It's very simple:
Click Android SDK Manager
Download Android 4.2.2 (Api 17)
After install Android 4.2.2(Api 17)
Click right on project --> Properties --> Android --> Target Build Target
Choose Android 4.2.2 Api 17.
Finish
