Cordova 5.1.1 build failing

I created a Cordova 5.1.1 project using Visual Studio 2015. I am behind an ntlm proxy. I added the proxy settings anywhere I could find (Gradle, Java console, Crodova CLI, etc.) and use Cntlm for NPM but I still can't get the build to work. Pre-Cordova 5 I had several builds working with Ant.
The build fails with the following error:
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

Note: I have removed the full paths, but they are there in the original build output.
I noticed that the Maven repo certificate is not currently valid, but I have no idea if this is relevant or just some issue with our proxy not passing certificates.

Just do exactly what's suggested here:
http://www.scriptscoop.com/t/82d4495f9d81/android-gradle-cant-connect-to-maven-repo-through-corporate-proxy-need-to-conf.html
Don't forget that you should set a regular http and also https proxy.
This worked for me with exactly the same error you're experiencing.

How to build phonegap offline from command line

I'm using phonegap 100% from the command line. If I build while connected to the internet it works
$ phonegap build android
[phonegap] executing 'cordova build android'...
[phonegap] completed 'cordova build android'
But if I disconnect from the internet I get errors
$ phonegap build android
[phonegap] executing 'cordova build android'...

Why is the command line version phoning home? How do I get this to build 100% offline?
Note: I see this error as the 2nd line when trying to build offline
cp: no such file or directory: /Users/gregg/src/hft-mobile-app/icon.png
But as you can see that error does not occur online. Plus supposedly whatever that issue was was fixed according to this
I'm on OSX, I've got the Android SDK installed. I had no idea it was calling home. How do I get it to build offline?

This is what I have experienced till now. Ionic uses gradle for android build. It first time downloads all the dependencies from internet. So internet is most for first gradle build but it caches them and no internet is needed for further build.Since you are having problem why don't you globally update your cordova and ionic.
npm install -g cordova ionic

Cordova Android Build Failure

I am trying to get the basic Cordova v5.0 Android v4.0 project to build on Mac OS X Yosemite, but keep getting this error. Note: The same process builds fine on Cordova v4. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Android SDK, Cordova, and even Gradle (but I don't think I need it). I've checked that my Path variable contains the correct paths to /tools and /platform_tools. But when I do the 'cordova build' or 'cordova build android' I always get the same error:
Could not create an instance of type
org.gradle.invocation.DefaultGradle_Decorated.
Further down it says:
You may not have the required environment or OS to build this project
What am I missing?
Here's the full text of what I'm doing:

I figured it out. I found old, conflicting .jar files in ~/Library/Java/Extensions. Blew away the entire ~/Library/Java directory. Cordova (and Android Studio) runs great now.

The other way how this problem can be resolved is by changing the repository from
mavenCentral()
to
maven{
url 'https://repo1.maven.org/maven2'
}
in both platforms/android/build.gradle and platforms/android/CordovaLib/build.gradle
