Unable to detect adb version, adb output in Android Studio 3.3.2

I have done following task for solutions;
Download and update platform-tools
Change Sdk path and re-download
Uninstalled Android Sdk platform-tools and Android Sdk tools after re-install.
Update adb path in Environment
Change virtual memory size
But it's still not working... I'm using android studio version 3.3.2
error show like Unable to detect adb version means connection devices showing none when i run the app

If other solutions don't work and you're on Windows, check if Visual C ++ is installed.
If needed, you can download it here.

Just change adb.exe in location sdk\platform-tools -adb.exe and replace it. It will work. SDK folder is in users\account name\appdata\local\android\SDK\platform-tools
In my case: D:\ANDROID SETUP\sdk\platform-tools due to low c drive space ..
It will work ......

For anyone experiencing issues with Android Studio 3.3.2 not detecting Genymotion: make sure to point Genymotion to use the Android SDK ADB and not the one it's shipped with. It seems like this is because Genymotion is shipped with outdated ADB

I solved my problem. That was the visual studio installation problem. In my system visual studio c++ 2015 installed. Just repair or re-installed it.

Locate the adb.exe file in the platform-tools folder . Double-click to run it . If it shows an error message , you need to install the C++ runtime from here. Else you should up-date/reinstall the sdk

i downgrade my adb and use this as guidance

Android Studio is unable to find ADB, yet I'm able to deploy to my device

The exact error I'm getting is "java.lang.Throwable: ADB not found"
I haven't found anything online matching my problems. I have already (manually) reinstalled the platform tools multiple times. And they work. I can connect to my phone, even Android Studio is able to run the project on my phone. Yet it throws that error and locks some of the features like Logcat (I can use Logcat via the shell just fine). I've also tested Android Studio 3.3 additionally, but it didn't change anything.
The google USB driver is installed too.

The ADB tool is originally installed on .../android-sdk/platform-tools/platform-tools/ and Android Studio doesn't recognise the tool inside this location. After tried all the other suggestions, the only solution that worked for me was to copy the adb file from this folder to the parent folder: .../android-sdk/platform-tools/. It worked like a charm.
Some particularities of my system:
OS: macOS Catalina
IDE: IntelliJ IDEA CE (the same occurred when I tried to work with Android Studio)
SKD installation method: installed trough Homebrew with the cask android-sdk (the same occurred when I tried to install from within Android Studio)

It seems like you installed adb drivers externally and not via Android Studio and hence they are not present inside the platform tools of the Android SDK. I would recommend installing it using Android Studio's inbuilt SDK Manager.
Steps
Open SDK Manager in Android Studio (you can find it at top right
with android logo and downward arrow and also in the Tools Menu at
the top).
In SDK Manager click on SDK Tools tab and checkmark the
Android SDK Platform Tools
Apply changes and your issue should be resolved.
I hope this helps.
I am attaching a Screenshot for your reference:-

When I opened Android Studio today, it randomly worked.
The whole "whole App chrashing on startup"-thing was a bug I introduced.

Can't find SDK Manager.exe in Android SDK folder

I need to install some packages in Android SDK Manager, but in my SDK folder there isn't the .exe file (There is only the AVD Manager and the folders).
How can I find it? My SDK works normally with Android Studio, without problems, it's strange that SDK Manager.exe isn't there.

I had to install an older version
https://dl.google.com/android/installer_r24.4.1-windows.exe
and update it. Going from there worked

To open the SDK Manager from Android Studio, click Tools > Android > SDK Manager or click SDK Manager in the toolbar. If you're not using Android Studio, you can download tools using the sdkmanager command-line tool.
Check this link: https://developer.android.com/studio/intro/update.html#sdk-manager

I found C:\NVPACK\android-sdk-windows\tools\android.bat
When I ran it, it brought up SDK Manager.
Which was nice, because I couldn't find SDK Manager in the C:\NVPACK\android-sdk-windows\lib folder like I was told it would be there.

You can find Android SDK Manager.exe file in the following folder:
C:\Users[account]\AppData\Local\Android\sdk (sdk1 in my case)
You can tap on that and you will get the Android SDK Manager screen.

Go to android_sdk/tools/bin/ open cmd and type sdkmanager and hit enter you can use command prompt for it

You can find sdk manager under command-line tools, which you will have to download by clicking the configure drop-down link under the android studio start-up wizard.
C:\Users[account]\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin

C:\Users[account]\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\cmdline-tools\latest\bin
I had trouble running from here because I didn't have the right permission. I was trying to update my SDK. I got it running from another folder on my system with the command line command:
"C:/Program Files (x86)/Android/android-sdk/cmdline-tools/7.0/bin/sdkmanager.bat" --update --sdk_root="C:/Program Files (x86)/Android/android-sdk/cmdline-tools"
On Visual Studio 2022 you can look under Tools/Android/Android SDK Manager

No Android SDK found - Android Studio

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

Android:Android SDK and AVD Manager doesn't launch after did SDK upgrade?

I have Android development eclipse setup on Mac OS X. I recently did Android SDK upgrade from 1.5 to available versions such as 1.6, 2.0.1 and 2.1 and docs. After did upgrade, automatically restarted my Macbook and installed all new versions. After this, when i try to launch "Windows->Android SDK and AVD Manager", it doesn't launch at all. What might be the reason? Does anyone has the solution?
The reason why i'm trying to launch Android SDK and AVD Manager is, i need to add new Android virtual device(avd) target for 2.0.1 and 2.1 versions, for that i'm trying to launch Android SDK and AVD Manager.
Thank you in advance.

It seems the latest version of the Android SDK AVD Manager requires that there be a few directories (empty) before the AVD Manager will launch.
In the SDK install directory, there must be sibling directories to tools for "platforms" and "add-ons".
Create those directories, restart Eclipse, then launch AVD Manager.
And that should do it.
Then You can Update All and get platforms.

Well this is actually caused by the fact that android is installed on c:\program files folder (the commands executed by android consider that the called folder is c:\program which is a non existent folder and this issue is due to the space in the name of this folder).
So the solution is to reinstall your program under a folder with non spaced name (for example c:\Android) and it should be fine.
Note: this problem can also be related to a problem of jre problem so make sure you have the appropriate version for android sdk.

Have you tried launching Eclipse with the -clean option?
The clean option clears any cached data Eclipse might be using, so it may resolve the SDK/AVD Manager issue you are encountering.
Here is a more in-depth explanation:

Here is one example of launching Eclipse from a command line (Terminal) in OSX with the -clean option:

You might have to update your "SDK tools" as well as downloading the Android v2.1 SDK itself. I had the problem where after downloading v2.1, suddenly nothing worked as I got the message I needed to update to SDK tools rev5 - that update doens't happen automatically when you go to the AVD manager and download the "available packages". I don't know if it's the same on a Mac, but on the PC it was as simple as going to "Help -> Check for Updates" in Eclipse.

the newer version of the SDK tools is probably in a different folder than the old version, so update
Window -> Preferences -> SDK Location.

Check the install is ok by running the commands from the tools directory manually to check it's not an issue with the install

I had a similar problem and traced it to a faulty swt.jar file in the folder
[adroid_sdk]\tools\lib[platform]
Downloaded a new one from http://www.eclipse.org/swt/ and put all the files into the above directory. For me [platform] was "x86", but it might be different for you, though I only had 3 folders to choose from and I dont think it will hurt if you put the files in all of them.
