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.
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
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.
Android Studio -> File -> Invalidate Caches and Restart
Nothing else helped me.
Try it:
File --> settings --> Plugins --> Android ButterKnife Zelezny --> disenable
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.
I just update the Koltin version to 1.5.20 and it works!!
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)

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.
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.
this issue comes from plugins
1- update plugins
2- step by step disable plugins to find incorrect plugin
3- as advance people please report issue to providers for solve the problem
in Arctic Fox version (2020.3.1) I fixed it by updating Gradle Plugin version 7.0.0.
This solution is 100% working for the above issue
ext.kotlin_version = "1.5.21"
classpath "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-gradle-plugin:$kotlin_version"
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
After many hours, I finally uninstalled Android Studio, delete all Android directory, clean registry and reinstall Android Studio stable version.
disable Compose plugin. the only way work for me.
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
for me file analysis is only getting stuck in kotlin files with co-routines. upgrading co-routines version to the latest helped me.
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.
Whenever I open a fresh project, Gradle is downloaded each time. Actually it is one shot, otherwise any changes in gradle.properties.
I have downloaded latest version of Gradle and set environmental variables.
So my question is any way to change this downloading each time to get system level Gradle?
Note: I have set Gradle file location in Android studio. But it is not working, I think.
Thanks in advance
I'm on Linux Mint KDE and want to update Android Studio. When I update PHPStorm (also a JetBrains product) the directory always has the version number so there is no overwriting. Android Studio does not. Do I just overwrite the old directory? Or delete it first? Or what?
Usually you can simply use the built in update function found in
Help -> Check for Update...
If it is not a small patch, but a larger update (happens from time to time) you need to download a new archive. For me it was always safe to remove (or rename) the old installation folder first since all your configuration settings are stored in
~/.AndroidStudio
anyways and Android Studio will automatically reuse these (or ask you if it shall migrate them).
I am using Android Studio for 2 years now and that was always working for me.
BTW: I use IntelliJ IDEA as well and it also has the version number in the installation folder.
I changed my account from admin to other. why is android studio downloading components again. I downloaded everything previously... How to proceed?
You possibly used the default location for android sdk. You can move it, while the studio is turned off. The next time you start it, it will ask you to tell him where the new location is.
Also gradle wrapper downloads some other files, like gradle itsels. That is also stored for each user, but don't worry about this
I am using several computers to work with my android project. Every time I am checking in my updates to GitHUB I see several files where updated even though I did not really update them, namely the *.iml files and .idea/misc.xml file. What changes is the value of the jdk-name attribute. While checkin ig from one computer it is '1.6 (2)', while from another it is just 'JDK'
My understanding is that something in the setup of JDK is different between my 2 computers. So what is different and how do I fix it?
The JDK names are maintained internally in Android Studio; this is different from IntelliJ where you edit them through the Project Structure dialog.
It's not intended that you check .iml files or anything in the .idea folder into source control in Android Studio. The Gradle build files are the source of truth for project structure.
