Android studio stuck at Refreshing Gradle project

Question

Updated Android studio to 1.2.2 and the background process wont end.(Refreshing \'MemoryCards\' Gradle project).

It has been more than an hour now and its still busy?

Answer 1

if gradle has downloaded correctly and you just have problem with this project, follow these steps:

1. Delete .gradle folder from your project's root.
2. File > Invalidate Caches/restart.

Note: if android studio didn't restarted, kill it's process in Task Manager.

Some other solutions:

• Adding android studio to Firewall and Antivirus exceptions (or turn off both temporary)
• Adding mavenCentral() to project build.gradle after jcenter() line.
