Hi guys I'm new in android development and I found it strange why I can't find the build.gradle in my project after successfully exported the project. This is what I did.
Update SDK to revision 22.0.5.
Update my Eclipse Plugin to adjust in 22.0.5 build.
Open my eclipse then Export.
Select Generate Gradle build files.
Click next, then next
Then it tells me that successfully exported and give the location of the build.gradle but going to the said directory the file is no where to found.

I downloaded the repo android-cv-bot-template and then open it in android studio, I want to generate own apk file but can't understand how to do that.
When I import project in AndroidStudio then I have error like This project does not use the Gradle build system. We recommend that you migrate to using the Gradle build system. And did't see any button to create an apk file.
Maybe I don't need to do that with android studio?
Added photo of Build
When i create own project from scartch in adnroid stuido then I can create apk, but when i download this project I can't. And i don't understand why
In Android studio's worktab you can hover over 'Build' and select 'build bundle'. In there you can choose to build an APK. After some time a popup comes on that tells you it is done building and where to find the file.
I am using Android studio 2.2 on windows 10.
I am trying to import an existing android project. The problem that it took forever and still showing the message
Building 'ProjecTName' Graedle project info
after that android studio is totally getting stuck and i kill it from the task manager !
I tried the available options on Android Studio list:
Open an existing Android Studio Project
Import Project (Eclipse ADT, Gradle, etc.)
There is downloading of Gradle going on at the background. Just wait for it to finish.
Just Remove Gradle files from your project folder and retry.
Hope this will help.
I also had the problem.
I downloaded the gradle 3.5 binary distribution zip file, deleted the gradle folder from my project, then went to settings of Android Studio, checked "Offline work", used "Use local gradle distribution" and set the path of unzipped gradle folder
on the "Gradle home" and "Service directory path" text fields.
Then I tried to open the project with Android Studio 2.3.
Then a message is shown and I pressed cancel to manually configure the gradle, then I located the unzipped gradle folder again. This solved my problem.
Try the following :
1> Try Removing(Deleting) the gradle files from the project folder and then re-try.
2> Try to go into the android studio and then Files>Invalidate Caches/Restart and then try.
3> If the above two don't work do check the gradle,android Studio versions and see if those need updating.
4> Above 3 usually work for me , if it still persists, then you need to check the dependencies for the project. Also try importing some other project and if the same issue occurs, try a new installation of a STABLE version of the android studio.
Try to remove C:\Users\User.gradle
I had deleted all gradle folder and copied it from another project and pasted it, this worked for me
The above answers didn't work for me well.
I have several projects with different gradle versions, and whenever I tried to open a project the Android Studio started downloading its gradle in the background.
So, things to do before importing old projects to new Android Studio / Gradle.
In file 'build.gradle' replace old line with "classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.3'"
(Assuming 2.3.3 is the latest. You can check this in your newly/recently created project)
In file 'gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties' replace old line with 'distributionUrl=https://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-3.3-all.zip'
(Assuming 3.3 is the latest. You can check this in your newly/recently created project)
Now when you'll import, it wont download other gradle version.
I did find-replace for the above lines in my whole directory containing all my old projects, using Notepad++.
Actually the real Problem is that the studio is downloading gradle files throught internet and sometimes it is not able to do so, then it stucks but we can manually fix it through-
Download Gradle Files according to your android Studios version.
You can download gradle files through-https://services.gradle.org/distributions/
See your Gradle vesrion through-https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/gradle-plugin.html in the Update Gradle area.
Download the Gradle and paste it into- c:/Users/username/local/.gradle
and this is It!!!
I found that my gradle files had the gradle version set 2.1.0. So I opened the files in wordpad and first changed that to 3.3 And then it worked fine for me.
And in the gradel-wrapper.properties:
From distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-2.10-all.zip
To distributionUrl=https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-3.3-all.zip
Hope that will solve the problem
This worked for me.. Will work for you for sure.
step 1: Delete "only" the Gradle "folder" from your project folder.
step 2: Import your project from Android Studio & a dialog box will appear "press
Ok to use..., or Cancel to... ". Press "Cancel" & locate the path where you have downloaded the latest Gradle File (C:/Gradle/gradle-3.5 ,in my case).
Step 3: it will give an error saying that "no cache version for....". So now check which version of com.android.tools.build:gradle: you have.. so check the path "C:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\gradle\m2repository\com\android\tools\build\gradle" and select the latest version (2.3.2 in my case). So now, go to Gradle Scripts-> build.gradle(android) in Android Studio and change the dependencie's classpath to (classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:2.3.2')in my case
step 4: Click on "try again". Then it'll ask for upgrading tools, upgrade it by clicking on it & then you're done..
Congrats, your Project is successfully built..
And yeah make sure that In Setting-> Build,Exec...->Gradle-> "check mark on Use local gradle distribution & offline work & Gradle home: C:/Gradle/gradle-3.5 & Service directory path: C:/Gradle/gradle-3.5 (in my case).
Deleting temp and temp% worked for me!
Download manually gradle-3.3-all.zip
and extract into /Users/[yourUsername]/.gradle/wrapper/dists/gradle-3.3-all/55gk2rcmfc6p2dg9u9ohc3hw9/
I imported a project created from Android Studio earlier version. I am running Android Studio 1.4.1.

Open File
The SDK directory it is referring to /media/delta/f2164b84-872f-493c-9d9f-8edf44dc4428/home/delta/Android/Sdk does not exist in my machine.
I tried all suggestion proposed by:

Go to

I'm trying to open the following project https://github.com/mik3y/usb-serial-for-android on Android Studio but all the things I try it give me errors related to gradle :s
It says version 0.9.0 introduce some incompatible changes but then I can't make the changes they said.
Can anyone try it to me?
The biggest issue is that Android Studio uses Gradle and Eclipse does not. It sounds like the GitHub project was built with Eclipse, which means you first have to import that project into Eclipse, then export it with the Gradle files.
From the Android docs
Export from Eclipse
Update your Eclipse ADT Plugin (you must have version 22.0 or higher).
In Eclipse, select File > Export.
In the window that appears, open Android and select Generate Gradle build files.
Select the project you want to export for Android Studio and click Finish.
Your selected project remains in the same location but now contains a build.gradle file and is ready for Android Studio.
Import into Android Studio In Android Studio, close any projects currently open. You should see the Welcome to Android Studio window.
Click Import Project. Locate the project you exported from Eclipse,
expand it, select the build.gradle file and click OK. In the following
dialog, leave Use gradle wrapper selected and click OK. (You do not
need to specify the Gradle home.) Now that your project is imported to
Android Studio, read Tips and Tricks for some help getting started.
Note: It's possible to import an existing Android project to Android
Studio even if you don't generate a Gradle build file from
Eclipse—Android Studio will successfully build and run projects using
an existing Ant build file. However, in order to take advantage of
build variants and other advanced features in the future, we strongly
suggest that you generate a Gradle build file using the ADT plugin or
write your own Gradle build file for use with Android Studio. For more
information about the Gradle build system, see the Gradle Plugin User
Guide.
I am using spring and maven plugins in eclipse but when i want to run this project it returns Could not find ShopZilla.apk? How this will resolved, Please suggest me.
Make sure after updating your android sdk sdk build tools are updated properly. You can check it by Open sdk manager -"Android Sdk Build Tools" status must be installed. if the status is not installed then install Android Sdk Build Tools for the same.
If you have got all required plugins installed (ADT, M2E and M2E Android), the apk should be automatically generated by IDE.
Sometimes the apk file is not generated simply because there are some android build error in your project, unfortunately, these are not compile error so they are not shown in Eclipse problems view. For example, if you attach a icon.jpg file in your res/drawable folder and change the extension to png, you get no compile error in problems view, but if you then manually delete the apk file in your project output folder, the apk file will not be generated again and in this situation Eclipse only gives very generic message "could not find *.apk file" in console view, when you trying to run it on emulator.
Now the only question is how can we tell if there are android build error. right click your project, choose Android Tools -> Fix Project Properties. in my jpg/png example, Eclipse will show "libpng error: Not a PNG file, ERROR: Failure processing PNG image C:\android-sandbox\source\yourproj\res\drawable-mdpi\icon.png" and project marked as a error in package explorer view. as soon as you replace icon.jpg with a real png file, bingo, apk automatically generated. Though I am not sure if this can detect all subtile android build error.
If you are using the ADT plugins greater than ADT17 then rename your "lib" folder to "libs".
Then Right click on project => Android tools => Fix project Properties => Clean your project
If still issue then just restart your eclipse. Your issue will be gone.
Please follow these steps; this might help you out:
Go to Project->Properties
Select Android from left-hand side list
Uncheck the "Is Library" checkbox
or
projects -> clean
