Answer 1

I see in your comments, @SergeyB, that deleting .gradle in your user dir didn't help, but these steps resolved my issue (which had similar symptoms):

• Delete .gradle directory from user dir (\Users\Mark.gradle)
• Delete GRADLE_HOME environment variable, if it's set
• Delete "manual" installs of Gradle (which shouldn't be needed, since Gradle will automatically download the necessary files when you run the gradlew wrapper)
• Run "gradlew" from command-line, and confirm that new files are downloaded
• Run a gradle build from the command-line (e.g., "gradlew clean assemble")
• If you get an SDK version mismatch error, such as "failed to find target android-18", be sure to download the corresponding Android SDK (which can be done via the SDK Manager in Android Studio)
• Once you can build from the command-line, try again from within the IDE

Answer 2

Try applying the idea plugin in Gradle and running it. Then open the project in IntellijIDEA with the .ipr file that is generated.

Answer 3

I had the same problem just after installation Android Studio version 0.6.1. The buildToolsVersion in \app\build.gradle pointed to correct version (19.0.3) however problem was fixed by changing it to version 19.1

android {
compileSdkVersion 19
buildToolsVersion "19.1" // <- This was changed from 19.0.3
