Android Studio stuck at "Analyzing..." - android-studio

Question

In my Android project (Android 4.2 Canary 15), completion does not work anymore, and neither does syntax highlighting. This is happening in one Android project only (the others work well).
I have tried to clean, rebuild the project, create a new project and import files, but no changes... I have tried to delete .idea directory and all .iml files, but not better...
In the "File" menu, I've just tried the option "Invalidate caches / restart" and now all classes in my project are blocked at the state "Analyzing..." and completion still does not work...
Build and run project work, and my application starts well on my phone, but all intellij features
are inactive.

Answer 1

It appears that the Kotlin plugin was, indeed, the culprit.
Today (24 May 2021), a new version was released 1.5.10, and as soon as I installed it, everything went back to normal.
Synopsis: After upgrading from version 1.4.32 of Kotlin plugin to 1.5.0, code inspection, completion, linking to sources, javadocs, etc. all stop working (stuck at "Analyzing..." as the images here and here show), and only return for a few seconds/minutes when sth triggers a new analysis (eg. a gradle build, commit, loading new files, etc).
History of the plugin updates for reference can be found here

Answer 2

you can just change the Kotlin version to something else and then gradle sync again
This will solve the issue
you will find it in build.gradle file(project)
ext.kotlin_version = "1.5.10" //I used this
you can also roll back to your previous version. If you want this should not recreate the issue.

Answer 3

Android Studio -> File -> Invalidate Caches and Restart
Nothing else helped me.

Answer 4

Try it:
File --> settings --> Plugins --> Android ButterKnife Zelezny --> disenable

Answer 5

From my project I deleted the files
.idea/gradle.xml
.idea/workspace.xml
and it solved it for me.
Seems to be that I had previously configured the project's gradle incorrectly and even after several reinstalls I wasn't getting any luck.

Answer 6

I just update the Koltin version to 1.5.20 and it works!!

Answer 7

Kotlin version 1.4.10 magically stopped working in the IDE.
The problems are not related to the IDE version but rather to the integration of the kotlin plugin and the IDE.
kotlinVersion = '1.5.10'
classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:4.2.2'
Then Sync Project and Compile.
Finally you can see that the problem of Analyzing disappears and the IDE becomes intelligent again.
It is possible that after updating kotlin you have minimal errors in other libraries so you also have to update or fix them (I happened with Room)

Answer 8

This is a looming AS IDE issue correlated with the Kotlin plugin, Have tried literally every answer here with tooth and nail, but nothing worked. There were chains of errors. Finally, removing the AS cache folder manually worked for me -
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Google\AndroidStudio2020.3\caches
Artic fox sucks!
You may also try to update the Kotlin plugin to the latest if possible and see if it makes any difference.

Answer 9

The one solution that worked for me (working in Canary 2021.1.1) was to completely uninstall the Kotlin plugin from Android Studio, restart, let Android Studio install it automatically, and then everything worked again.
The root cause of this issue was that Android Studio "accidentally?" updated Kotlin plugin to an M1 version (I'm on x64), namely 211-1.5.30-M1-release-141-AS7442.40, when updating the plugin. I'm not sure why, but from now a check of what is going to be updated in Canary seems mandatory to avoid these kind of stuff to happen.

Answer 11

in Arctic Fox version (2020.3.1) I fixed it by updating Gradle Plugin version 7.0.0.

Answer 12

This solution is 100% working for the above issue
ext.kotlin_version = "1.5.21"
classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"

Answer 13

In my case, I just update the dependency "androidx.core:core-ktx:1.3.2" to "androidx.core:core-ktx:1.6.0". And it's gone, working normally

Answer 14

After many hours, I finally uninstalled Android Studio, delete all Android directory, clean registry and reinstall Android Studio stable version.

Answer 15

disable Compose plugin. the only way work for me.

Answer 16

If you are using
Jetpack Compose 1.0.5 (haven't tested with 1.0.0-1.0.4 but they should work too)
Java 11
Kotlin 1.5.31 (tested 1.5.10 working too)
the other answers don't work
What works is the following in your project build.gradle:
tasks.withType(org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile).configureEach {
kotlinOptions {
jvmTarget = "11"
useIR = true
freeCompilerArgs += [
"-Xallow-jvm-ir-dependencies",
"-P",
"plugin:androidx.compose.compiler.plugins.kotlin:suppressKotlinVersionCompatibilityCheck=true"
]
}
}
(compose compiler was blocking Kotlin compiler from completing jobs)
and Invalidate Caches & Restart

Answer 17

for me file analysis is only getting stuck in kotlin files with co-routines. upgrading co-routines version to the latest helped me.

Answer 18

Sometimes some files are stucking to me at analazying, I resolve that issue by:
Just copy / paste that file with the different name
Then remove the original file and rename the copied file with the original name.
