Android Studio Installed SDK

Answer 1

Facing exactly the same error, I encountered this answer on forum.ionicframework.com:

As easy as that.

I had the problem on Mac, so I did download the SDK tools373, copy-paste it in /Users/username/Library/Android/sdk, and it worked instantly.

But I absolutly don't know what causes the issue.

And I don't know what causes the issue either, but it helped me and everything works as expected.

Answer 2

I downgraded Android SDK FROM latest release 10.0(q) to API level 29 TO 9.0(pie) API level 28 by the user guide here then added this in a .bash_profile

export ANDROID_HOME=${HOME}/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/tools
export PATH=${PATH}:${ANDROID_HOME}/platform-tools

everything works fine I hope that it can help someone

Answer 3

Facing with same error. Maybe this info will be helpful.

In the latest Android SDK Tools (v25.3.1), the android command no longer operates as expected and instead exits with a non-zero status code and provides a message telling folks to use the sdkmanager and avdmanager commands.

try to execute android in terminal if it will return something like this:

The android command is no longer available.For manual SDK and AVD management, please use Android Studio.For command-line tools, use tools/bin/sdkmanager and tools/bin/avdmanager

then you need to downgrade your SDK to v25.2.5 or less. Instruction can be found here
