It seems as though gradle was not installed for me. Going to Android/Sdk/tools/templates/gradle/wrapper and running ./gradlew tasks --debug has resulted in it downloading.

OK guys I finally overcame this problem. Here is the solution:

1. Download gradle-1.6-bin.zip for offline use.

2. Paste it in the C:\Users\username\.gradle directory.

3. Open Android Studio and click on the "Create New Project" option and you will not get this error any more while offline.

   You might get some other errors like this:

   

   Don't worry, just ignore it. Your project has been created.

4. So now click on "Import Project" and go to the path C:\Users\username\AndroidStudioProjects and open your project and you are done.

Answer 6

Just as an assist if you go with Android Studio 0.4.x offline mode (because this thread is one of the main ones that google throws up when querying this issue).

From Alex Ruiz (Google+):

If you specify dependency versions using "+" (e.g. 0.8.+) Gradle (not Android Studio) will check that you have the latest version of such dependency periodically (every 24 hours,) even in offline mode

You need to take the plus out.
