My Android Studio SDK Manager icon was greyed out and when I tried to create a new project in Android Studio, I got the error:
Your Android SDK is missing, out of date, or is missing templates. YouTo resolve this, the Android SDK tools should be downloaded manually.
can configure your SDK via Configure | Project Defaults | Project
Structure | SDKs
-
Follow the instructions in the video and download Android Studio.
-
Download the standalone Android SDK tools.
-
This will launch the following screen. Proceed with wizard. Set the
installation path to somewhere it can be easily found (I had problems
accessing when I had it in the default App Data folder)
-
After completion, the SDK Manager will be launched. Now install the packages. As the Sunshine app is built using API 19, I installed it along with the newest version API 21.
Sit back and relax while all the stuff gets downloaded!
-
Launch Android Studio. It can be found in android-studio -> bin
-
The Android SDK Manager is still greyed out. Lets manually add the SDK location now.
Configure->Project Defaults->Project Structure ->SDKs
