Whenever I start SDK manager in Add-on list, it always show the error "Failed to fetch URL https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/addons_list.xml, reason: File not found" due to the fact that I do not have an installed SDK platform to work upon. I have tried everything, please help me.
if i try to open this link inside my browser i get an error 404, so this file does not exist.
maybe you should download a newer version of the android sdk, u can get it here android sdk
On the navigation bar menu on the top, click on Tools / Manage Add-On Sites...
Then go on the right hand tab on the new window. (User defined sites)
Delete the site that says https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/repository/addons_list.xml and click close in the bottom right.
Or update the entire SDK, that will work just as well.
Hope this helps :-)

I already installed the android studio but i am having a problem to proceed ahead,
and the problem is Android SDK path not specified, what does it mean, do i need to download something or what?Android SDK is having problem
Go through the following steps but first make sure your PC is connected to the internet.
Open your Android Studio
Go to the File menu and choose Settings
After that from the left side of Settings window search Android SDK, click on it and on right side click Edit.
Then from SDK Setup Window Click Next and Another window will be opened click Next.
Finally, the installation starts and Android Studio download the SDK and necessary files.
Yes, you need to download the Android SDK. Then you need to add the location on your computer to Android Studio.
The SDK can be downloaded by opening a workspace in Android Studio, and finding a button with an arrow pointing down. If you hover over it, it should say "Open SDK manager". Press it and download the packages you need.
Yes, Before installation it will ask you options.Just tick mark Android SDK.
See below:
Refer link: https://developer.android.com/studio/install
The installer is misleading making you think the SDK is already there. After much searching I figured this out:
Cancel the dialogue box asking for the Android SDK path and do the following:
Open Android Studio IDE. Find the down arrow icon, should be second last icon in the toolbar. Click that. You will see a path for Android SDK Location:. Click the edit link to the right of that. This will bring up the SDK Components Screen. If you can check the boxes there, check them. They may already be checked or they may be disabled. You can leave the path as is, for me its:
C:\Users\<user name>\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk
Depending on whether you had Android Studio before it may say it has detected a previous version and it will only download the components it needs. This is normal. Now click the NEXT button. A confirmation screen will come up with Setup Type and SDK Folder. If you want to change your SDK Folder this is your last chance, if not, click NEXT again.
It may bring up a Terms & Conditions screen, click the Accept radio button then NEXT. It will go and download the Android base SDK. When it's completed click FINISH.
You will then be taken to the Platforms screen where you can select which Android platforms you want to support. ie, Android 9.0 (Pie), Android 8.1 (Oreo). Select all the platforms you need then click APPLY.
The downloader will grab all those packages for you. Next, click the SDK Tools tab. Check the boxes of the tools you want and click APPLY. It may bring up a Terms & Conditions screen again, click the Accept radio button then NEXT. When completed just click FINISH and you're good to go.
File > Settings
The download will begin
In some cases, the project works properly but suddenly this error appears even though the project has nothing to do with Android
If this is your case, try the following steps:
Find a file in your project called tests.iml (or File ending in .iml)
file location in default is C:\yourProject\tests\tests.iml
Revert to the last version for all page by the click on the git change icon (1) and click on the revert button (2)
As the following image:

I Installed SDK in eclipse and I had the logo on my toolbar so I could update my SDK whenever I wanted. However, I'm half way though an app and I need to update my SDK and it's nowhere to be seen on my toolbar any ideas why this is and how I can get it back
Window -> Android SDK Manager. If you just start Android, you should try Android Studio.
I figured it out Windows-->Perspective -> Customize Perspective --> Android SDK and AVD Manager. Click "Yes" if you get a pop up message and then click on Android SDK and AVD Manager. That should be it sorted.
Best way See the image Open perspective -> For in details see the image
Just switch perspective to Java.
I have downloaded all documentation with SDK manager help. But how can I open this documentation and the samples of code in Android Studio after downloading?
According to Android Studio Tips and Tricks, you can press Ctrl+Q to show docs for selected API under Windows or F1 under Mac.
For the samples , you can use eclipse to export to Android Studio.
First you need to make sure the documentation is added to Android Studio.
Go to File -> Project Structure. Under the Platform Settings heading, add or select an Android Platform. Go to the Documentation Paths tab and make sure the path to your SDK's documenation folder is added there - it should be [SDK]\docs\reference, where [SDK] is the full path to your SDK installation. If it is not there add it manually.
Once this is done, use Ctrl+F1 while your cursor is on the item you want to display help for.
The samples have not been ported to Android Studio yet, but I'm sure google will get around to it at some point. For now follow the instructions in the comments by androidika (you will need a copy of Eclipse installed).
In Android Studio you need to download javadoc dependency which is part of sdk.
If you enable documentation to appear while writing code in android studio by navigating to
File-> Settings-> Editor-> General-> Other
and
selecting(check box) Show Quick documentation on mouse move, you would get irritating after some time because it will come out automatically you when you would be writing code.
So, I think we should go to alternative ways by using Ctrl + Q(on Ubuntu at least I am not sure of other environments). This way when you would feel help you can simply use the simple command.
I was trying to find this setting in the latest build of android studio, and after wasting a lot of time I finally found out that now the ide automatically finds the documentation, which can be opened with shift+f1 on a method.
Now a days once you Import project in Android studio, it will automatically shows docs. But on mouse hover you want to expand it.
Docs hover page was simply resized very short like the above, it looks like docs is not avail. But when I Carefully moving the mouse down to the bottom of the hover page allowed me to resize it.
So, I'm trying to start a new Android project, but I can't get through the first step.
Everything looks good to me, but the 'Next' button just won't light up for me.
Of note, the 'Theme' menu starts off on 'Holo Light with Dark Action Bar' and a red X next to it. This will stay red after changing it (even to 'none') unless it's the first thing I do when I get to this form. Seems weird. Anyone have any idea what's going on here?
There is nothing listed in 'Compile With', but I do have SDK Platforms installed and up to date.
I ended up trashing my adt directory and re-downloading the bundle from Google in order to get it to properly "update" to 21.1.
The problem is that the any sdk platform is not installed on your computer thats why the compile with field is empty and next button is not shown so first installed any one of the SDK platform.
Launch Android SDK manager and installed any SDK platform.
I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 and installed Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo) for Java Developers along with the Android SDK. When I add the following URL into the work With field under Eclipse's Install New Software menu:
https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse
No plugins appear between the "Work With" and Options sections. I understand I'm supposed to be able to select Developer Tools. I get nothing. I've tried linking to http vice https. Also, downloading the zip from the android dev site itself yields the same result. When I run Check for Updates, it comes back saying nothing to update. I also ran "Test Connection" for the above URL and it comes back positive.
Any advice?
I think that is an Eclipse visualization bug: try to resize the dialog window as it appears minimized
Click the "Add..." button to the top right. Then enter the name (I just put "Android") and location (https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse). At the right side of the work with field there is an arrow that brings up the list of sites. Clicking Android adds the Developer Tools item to the list below. From there you can expand it and check whatever you need.
